Role: Co-Founder

Me and my friends (Sagar Satija, Samidha Singh and Sanchit Bathla) started Kampuskart.in in August 2015, which we bootstrapped. It was an E-Commerce portal, selling stuff to hostel students. The model of business was to focus on the student’s needs by surveying and other methods. Instead of keeping Items in bulk, Kampuskart kept items that were in demand in campus. Now, Items according to students’ interest may vary from campus to campus. So the approach was to work separately on different campuses. My job at Kampuskart included everything from sales management to marketing and being the delivery guys. I have had 360 degree glance at experience of what every department in a company would feel like working in. Those 8 months taught me what should and more importantly what should not be done to run a business.
