The last month of 2021 is here and I cannot help but ponder over the fact that this year was a roller-coaster ride that altered our lives on a major scale. In terms of the business landscape, thoughtful leaders happened to ace their business competencies and companies strained every nerve to top the productivity charts. Working their socks off, many business tycoons managed to turn the tides in their favour in the most unexpected ways while helping the communities survive this unprecedented happening in the history of mankind. Similarly, we being a prominent player in our niche domain, made the best out of our abilities to bring some classy editions for our global readership even amid the most critical times induced by the covid crisis.

Welcome To The ‘December Issue’ Speaking Volumes of The Entrepreneurial Space

Needless to say that we are back with yet another phenomenal read, specially curated for December. Business Connect Magazine is privileged to put forth its ‘Special December Edition’ that highlights the stories of some dynamic companies that ensured significant contribution to the lives across the globe with their innovative offerings. This time, our commitment to serving our readers with an outstanding reading experience propelled us to push our boundaries that ended up in the formulation of this gripping read. Nowadays, we frequently witness new products and services popping up in the market daily. Many of us just conclude that these inventions are pouring out of the genius brains, but, most of these are a concocted potion of the conventional ‘hard-work’ philosophy blended with an out-of-the-box idea. So, we must not presume that ‘innovation’ just happen ‘accidentally’. This emphasises the fact that the secret sauce to success involves a lot of hard work and an idea for making a seed flourish into a huge fruitful tree. From the above premise, we can conclude that brand making is not just a mere coincidence but it is a continuous process of evolving as a better choice among the targeted audience and this speaks the truth for many names thriving in the market. Now, our cover page depicts the triumphs of MKS Corporate Services- a well-reckoned name for providing people with dream living spaces. Driven by values, quality, comfort, assurance and efficiency as the focal points, the company is making strides to transform lives under the aegis of its dynamic founder and CEO- Shrikant Kishor Nayak. In this fascinating story, we have spotlighted various aspects of the company along with some remarkable leadership insights of the founding head. Last but not the least, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our readers, for they are the real motivation that allows us to come up with more sophisticated issues every time. Our team also welcomes constructive feedback from our valued readers on any part of this edition and would like to hear about how to make it more alluring for them.

Conducting business operations is very much similar to sailing a ship at sea, where a captain plays a significant role. Not just one, several responsibilities fall on a captain’s shoulder to ensure seamless sailing. Synergy in the overall performance of the captain as well as crew is instrumental in smooth sailing. Likewise, a company’s ‘ship’ is sailed by a perfect symphony between the leadership team and workforce. Collaborative brainstorming is what can make difference, claims the FounderCEO of MKS Corporate- Shrikant Kishor Nayak. He further adds that the secret sauce to the success of any venture could be its customer-centric efforts. For this, a leader needs to pay enormous attention to the customer questions/feedback along with their pain points. This could also be unveiled by an effective research program that can provide one with all the worth it answers. His exemplary stewardship with which MKS Corporate has been scaling heights raised the bars of service standards across the industry affirmatively. With a visionary outlook, he was able to transform ‘a nominal beam of light’ into a brighter flare to be acknowledged by all and MKS Corporate is the sheer result of this happening. It has been his optimistic mindset and impressive business acumen that drove MKS Corporate to greater heights today.

This multi-service firm with Shrikant Kishor Nayak has created a brand value for itself across the nation. Creating a robust brand value is a key differentiator for any business. Experts say it is the most efficient way to stay ahead of the competition. Most people recognize the significance of the brand value but are unaware of how to do it. Many business leaders think investing a heavy sum of money does the thing where the advertising campaigns and image building are the core focal points, but a strong brand emerges not from the heavy investment rather steadfast business values are what drives a successful brand, claims Shrikant. He is an avid believer of the fact that a strong brand is what makes you stand out and gives you a leading edge in the market. 13

The core factor for the company to come into existence was an intensive urge to provide services in the public sector with service, integrity, teamwork, excellence, and dedicated initiative to fulfil commitments.

With this, employees are able to connect with the leader in a better way that will be immensely beneficial to both sides. This is imperative for the holistic development of the individual as well as the organisation. To sum it up, an influential leader knows how to communicate his ideas and vision to the workforce and drive them altogether to a brighter tomorrow.

SUCCESS STORY

RITESH AGARWAL’S

JOURNEY FROM A COLLEGE DROPOUT TO THE YOUNGEST SELF-MADE BILLIONAIRE

At the time when in India, finding hotels within budget was a bigger issue than the availability of hotels, a man came up with a vision of creating a solution for people who are looking for affordable hotels and introduced OYO Rooms at his young age. It has achieved to solve the issue of affordability, cleanliness as well as the availability of hotels. OYO rooms have now become one of the most successful start-ups in India as the country’s largest budget hotel chain. It has spread itself over the globe with 23,000 hotels, 8, 50,000 rooms, and 46,000 vacation homes. The mastermind behind the idea of OYO which means “On Your Own” is Ritesh Aggarwal, who has grown as one of the most successful entrepreneurs in his 20s. He was a tech freak and had a passion to travel around the world. During his travels, the issue with budget hotels was discovered. At his young age of 17, he came up with launching Oravel Stays, which was modeled after Airbnb and later had become OYO rooms. The Journey to the Entrepreneurial realm Ritesh was born to a humble family in Orissa, Bissam Cuttack. He did his schooling from Sacred Heart School, Rayagada Orissa. He had a passion to become an entrepreneur and in order to pursue it, he enrolled himself into the Indian School of Business & Finance, Delhi. However, he left his college mid-way as he wanted to start his own company. His desire to travel the world made him realize the need for affordable hotels with decent services in India. If he finds affordable hotels, it had an issue of having no necessary facilities being provided like comfortable beds, AC, breakfast facilities, and Wi-Fi. This gave him an idea to do something that would solve these issues. He gathered his love for travel along with his obsession with technology into making something useful. Although the journey of Ritesh wasn’t easy, it had difficult roads like issues with funding, marketing, reaching out to the investors and property owners, had also faced mixed reactions from friends and relatives around him and whatnot, but this young guy found his path to success. He started his journey to success by launching “Oravel Stays”, which was helpful for people to locate and book affordable hotels near them. It helped travelers to find hotels on their budget but it was not serving the exact purpose for which he started this. Soon the realization hit that the major issue was in the non-standard services, so he updated his old business model and converted it into a better version and re-launched it as “OYO Rooms”, which provides pocket-friendly rooms with standard facilities in more than 1000 hotels across India and now it is spread over the world.

OYO rooms is nothing but an idea to create India’s largest chain of efficient, young, standardized rooms that has an intention to build the coolest chain that will live up to the basic standards and high expectations for rates like never before. The story of Ritesh Agarwal is a true inspiration for every aspiring entrepreneur, who wishes to make their mark in the business fraternity. This guy possesses a unique thinking capability - a major attribute that has helped him grow as the youngest billionaire in India.

RIDE INTO THESE 7 NATIONAL PARKS FOR AN

AMAZING JUNGLE SAFARI Walking into a zoo while sitting on our father’s shoulder and asking them about the who’s who of animals during childhood was always the biggest fantasy of every child. But, unlike a zoo, a wildlife sanctuary doesn’t capture animals, so here Jungle Safaris are the way to watch your favourite animals drooling around the forest, from a threatened tiger to a furious rhino, we want to witness everything. So, we’ll tell you seven places in the country where you can catch the beauty of animals. • Jim Corbett National Park, Uttarakhand Jim Corbett National Park, situated in Uttarakhand is India’s first and oldest national wildlife sanctuary, and it is acclaimed as a heaven for the adventure seekers and wildlife junkies. While there are rare chances of actually spotting a tiger inside this park, you might see one that is not baited or tracked. Also, it is one of the few parks with wild elephants in northern India. And we must say that a jeep safari is worth a try inside this park. • Kanha National Park, Madhya Pradesh Madhya Pradesh is your best bet if you want to do some ‘tiger spotting’. Here, a trip to Kanha National Prak, located at Mandla is a go-go. In this gigantic location, the woods are massive, but thanks to the park’s colossal core area, protected by a wide buffer zone, you can go deep into them. The royal Bengal tiger, leopard, Barasingha and the Indian wild dog have a large population. In a horse-shoe-shaped valley spread over 940 sq km, you can see elephant safaris in this park. • Sunderbans National Park, West Bengal As the Sunderbans are part of the largest delta in the world, created by the Ganges, Brahmaputra and Meghna rivers, they are densely covered by mangrove forests. It has one of the country’s largest Bengal tiger reserves, as well as an array of birds, reptiles and invertebrate animals, such as the salt-water crocodile! And what’s more, not in jeeps, but in canoes, you’ll sign up for their safaris. • Bandhavgarh National Park, Madhya Pradesh The highlight of Bandhavgarh National Park is that it has the highest population of tigers in the world, so it is not difficult to spot a tiger in this place. The nearby Tala village, which has a great choice of accommodation, suiting all budgets, is another tourist attraction while visiting the park. Here, you have the luxury of enjoying your elephant safari. • Kaziranga National Park, Assam Located in Assam, this park lies between Nepal and Bangladesh, the northeast of the narrow neck of land, and has a landscape of pristine forest, tall elephant grass, marshes and shallow pools. You can see two-third of the world’s Great Indian one-horned rhinoceros’ population here, and a World heritage site. Elephants, wild buffaloes, monitor lizards, and water birds are also rich in it. Your choices include a private jeep tour or an elephant trip.

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 Special Edition December 2021 | INDIA

• Gir Forest National Park, Gujarat The wildlife sanctuary of Gir is home to the last wild Asian lions left on earth. But there is zero chance of seeing a tiger here because it doesn’t have tigers. The second most common predator found in these forests, aside from lions, is the leopard.

TOP TRENDS IN

FOOD AND BEVERAGE INDUSTRY

If there is one thing that is constant in foodservice then it is only changing, change is constant in this industry. Every year brings new wrinkle like 2019, therefore fresh food trend in 2020 is the center of attraction in the F&B industry. The Best innovative trends in F&B industry, that were not even foreseen in 12 months are the center of talk for every entrepreneur that is part of the industry. This question goes into the mind of the food industry that “What’s the next?” to encompass all the developments that are both current and structural in long run will continue to affect the industry for years to come and presently. The year 2019 has witnessed to be immense in terms of growth and complex patterns in the global F&B industry. We will structure some of the top food and beverage industry trends that were prominent in 2019 and will continue into 2020. about the food they eat and its value. Food safety issues are costing the food and beverage industry billions each year. This thing will be more important than ever for the Food industry to pinpoint safety issues immediately. Some of the technologies like blockchain will continue to gain traction. Companies will move beyond trying to understand what blockchain is, to figuring out how to be a part of it. A survey of middle-market food and beverage chief financial officers found that just 12 percent are currently using blockchain in this industry. But that number will increase as more industries become aware of block chain’s benefits across the entire food chain from the grower to the manufacturer, distributors and beyond.

CHANGING CONSUMER PREFERENCES Similar to 2019, bold and exotic flavors, snacking, and health and wellness are still at the forefront for consumer food preferences in the upcoming year 2020. However, this time this will happen in a more elevated way. All the consumers want fortified and functional foods, which are balanced and good for health. Recently, the customers are looking for the food that fuels their brains and benefit their physical appearance. Grocery shelves will continue to be stacked with products like health beneficiary products, which provide additional functionality to consumers’ bodies. The changing customer’s preferences also add to the consumer’s plate that they also want food, which is not only good for them but also good for others. Whether the food they want to eat is a product that reflects simply its nutrition and benefit or is in environmentally friendly packaging. More than millennials, Generation-Z consumers are “clean eaters” they like live kitchens. They also have a strong interest in knowing everything and not only what the product is but how it is made and by whom. Transparency of food is required as a constant change; this is how it came into top trends for food and beverages. With today’s instant access to information, if a consumer can’t understand or find out where and how a product is made and what’s in it, they’ll be more inclined to leave it behind. The rise of clean labels and sustainability efforts will continue, but so will the rise of positive branding by companies that are leading in being good and also doing good.

ROBOTICS & USE OF AUTOMATED GUIDED VEHICLES The food and beverage industry is greatly interested in Robotics Technologies and Automated guided vehicles, where they replace human beings. With the rise of both techniques in the hotel industry the per capita income, living standards and labor standards were increased. The cost of acquiring labors has seen a sharp rise and it suffices the needs gratefully. Robots can do tasks perfectly which are to be repeated consistently. This will reduce human errors in the execution phase.

During mass production, tons of products and cartons need to be moved from one place to another. In-house stock movement can be a hectic task if a limited labor force is available. Automated Guided Vehicles can transport goods from one place to another if pick and drop coordinates are well defined. This provides speedy transportation with maximum efficiency for goods movement.

TOKEN OF ADVICE

As we asked Ashish to share some handy tips with the aspiring business leaders, he responded by saying, “Acquiring a few clients initially is a big challenge for a start-up. We need to find opportunities from the problems around us and constantly speak to customers and clients. As a start-up, we need to be agile so that we are real-time in problem-solving, design, development, and deployment. To be competent in the business, we need to upgrade almost daily and be ready for the future scope.

INSIDE CULTURE

“Take care of your employees, they will take care of the business,”- Ashish. A customer and service-oriented company can benefit a lot from embodying this culture since employee satisfaction and living up to customer expectations are more likely. Moreover, when the normal is advancing, it’s important to ensure that employees are given the flexibility to work from 41

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SUCCESSFUL AND VERY SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE “The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say ‘no’ to almost everything.”

Warren Buffet.

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 Special Edition December 2021 | INDIA

Greg McKeown, New York Times Bestselling Author shares his article on LinkedIn which is based on the Famous Quote

Warren Buffet

It looks so catchy to me, and I posted the picture of the quote. After I posted it, a friend of mine commented: Explain, please. I saw it like1. Very successful people say yes 2. When others say no and 2. (don’t take no for an answer) So I thought to explain on this buzzy topic and here it is:I understand it like, that once you reached a certain level in life, you’ve already been faced with lots of hard choices and decisions between good or great things. What I admire after referring to so many other articles and research on this topic that - One can’t get enough time or proper energy to say “YES” to everything in business. Everyone has to be very wise about focusing on their time, energy, enthusiasm, and optimism toward the Business things and life-related parameters that best advance your overall objectives. The late Steve Jobs unsurprisingly explains that: - Steve Jobs Said ONE Thing Separates Successful People from Everyone Else (and that thing will make All the Differences in Your Life to be best for you) The Influential meaning behind Buffett’s statement According to him, he meant saying ‘NO’ in the investment sense is not so important; but what is important is that his advice on this point, in whatever the context, is applying on anyone arriving at this stage of crossroads in daily decision-making needs to say N-O to their surrounding in any perspective. The most determined people want to accomplish things in a better way. They are always driven for results, in doing more, learning new and exciting things, getting promoted to bugger positions, and starting new ventures as capital. But one should never forget that fact - we also have our personal lives that we can’t ignore for optimum balance and happiness for ourselves. The good ambition of achieving can mean taking care of parentage and family priorities, expanding social circles, and pursuing hobbies (Giving Me time) and other interests according to personal needs. Buffett’s then advice on a bulls-eye for your conscience. He wanted to say that - we have to know what to shoot for simplifying our lives. It naturally means saying ‘NO’ tome to time and over again to the unimportant things like flying in our direction every day and remaining focused on saying yes to the few things which can easily be digested and that are truly matters.

Here are a few things that most successful people say, which needs NO!!! On a regular basis: • Young Aspirants always say no to the opportunities and things whichW are not exciting them, they always try to speak with their values or further mission in life. • These people always said no to superficial networking and connections in events in which other people swap business cards to one another and never hear from each one of people after that. This happens because successful people don’t build a network like that, they always build relationships. • They always say no to spending time with uninspiring, critical, or negative people who drag them down. Time is a precious jewel that chooses a very small circle of people socially, who will help them to energize and wants you to be better. • They say no to overwork – Well this statement is very true, some successful people and many big entrepreneurs put in their strategies to work 60 to 80 hours per week. These successful people aren’t workaholics, who neglect self-care and family, they do recognize that if they cannot take care of themselves then everything else suffers for them. • They say no to do all the work all the time. This comes down to one word: DELEGATION.

Steve Jobs agreed on the statements and enlightened us:It’s about focus, Job Fatefully supported this notion of saying NO!! At a Conference in 1997 for Apple Worldwide Developers. Here’s a glimpse of what he said: “People always thinks of focusing, means saying always YES to the thing you’ve got to focus on. But that’s not what it means at all. It means saying N-O to the hundred other good ideas that there are. You have to pick carefully. Like we discuss Jobs and Buffett, we enlighten you by another author also - Jim Collins Seven things successful people say no to every day Jim Collins, the best-selling and famous author of the “Good to Great”, once suggested his idea that instead of to-do lists, one should be focused on “stop-doing” lists in the business. Obsessing on to-do lists full of things that don’t really matter sometimes, and you spend less time saying yes to the things that do. 43

TRITON IT SOLUTIONS

A Holistic It Consultant For The Business Community

HARI PRASHATH M Co-Founder & CEO

Indranil Roy | Business Connect he outburst of technological advancements is pushing the business community to excel far beyond the fence. The way it’s advancing – technology rapidity will be not slowing anytime soon; and it’s meant for business to improve. Companies can reach heights and gain a niche competitive advantage by successfully leveraging new technology in line with core operations. It assists a firm in increasing business efficiency, lowering operational costs, optimizing the use of technology, and expanding its business with expertise. While all of this appears to be rather appealing, it is not so simple in reality. Modern technologies are available, but without the necessary skills, incorporating them into company models and growing might be tough. Moreover, with the cut-throat competition between tech magnates, SMEs, etc., it becomes pretty tough to rise above or lead the way without proper tech consulting. This also involves staying updated with demand shifts of clients at all times. TRITON IT Solutions is a specialist in redefining organisational efficiency through technical assistance and consultations. Business Connect recently got the opportunity to interview its CEO Mr. Hari Prashath Manivasagam. In the conversation, Hari discussed his enthusiasm for technology and how he discovered and advanced his career in end-to-end technology consulting. The following story highlights the discourse as a whole.

IDEATION, EXECUTION AND GROWTH

The bug for an entrepreneurial career was present in Hari since his early days of college. During his Engineering, he led the entrepreneurial Cell Lemon Inc. Here he built the much-required experience needed for his startup innovation. Moving on, he spent two and half years in TCS and worked in different departments. And while it had its perks, it’s not the life he wished for; also, he found a lack of excitement and challenges with the work. He left TCS in 2013 and founded TRITON IT Solutions as a product development company handling recruitment concerns of alumni. His experience and established entrepreneurial network were extremely beneficial to him. www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 Special Edition December 2021 | INDIA

But being bootstrapped, eventually, they faced financial constraints to scale fast, which obstructed them in working freewheelingly. “It was really difficult for us to run the show develop products, pay salaries to employees, and much more,” says Hari. During this time, a few of Hari’s friends needed tech assistance in building products. This is where ‘The Way’ for TRITON was born. Hari helped his friends succeed, and the Company finally started making money. In a few months, they were overwhelmed by work, which is why they built an ecosystem of talent and tech resources. Focusing on technologybased consultancy, they attracted clients from United States, Germany and other nations. They have a team of 35+ people and have accomplished projects with Govt. Bodies like Chennai Metro Rail Limited, Information & Broadcasting Ministry, Govt of India, etc. Now, TRITON proudly stands as a holistic IT partner for businesses. It ensures clients receive an end-to-end service, from concept to execution to marketing, and then funding.

that mistake-making in this journey is human, but it is always a learning opportunity too. Each of their assignments is backed by continuous brainstorming with both parties. This further helps them in their day-to-day challenges. For instance, the COVID-19 outbreak pushed them to the edge, and they just moved into an office at that time. However, being analytical about available resources and how to employ them aided in the transition to remote work and growth. Maintaining its core vision, TRITON is working on a hybrid model to stay connected and ensure flexibility in functioning. TRITON believed in nurturing talents and empower them. All the employees of TRITON have been part of the company for more than 4-5 years and they have been engaged in all the important decision making process which has given them a sense of ownership and a responsibility in company’s growth.

Health

Science Says Entrepreneurs Put Themselves At A Higher Risk For These

MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS

There was a time when people wouldn’t even think in a dream to become an entrepreneur. However, the time has changed. In this era, the entrepreneur career has become more glamorous. People like to become one. You may be thinking why? Well, the reason could be anything like maybe it makes you attractive living with a laptop lifestyle, or maybe you have a strong notion that you can make money as much as you wish. Either way, this career is becoming so popular across the world. Introducing own company to the world could be tempting.

INCREASE THE RISK OF DEPRESSION No doubt that being an entrepreneur, they have to spend long hours get success in business. Having a long time, they probably avoid their health. They have only one mentality that “Time is money.” It indicates they sleep less than they should be (According to Helthlin.com, every person should sleep at least seven hours per day). They ignore the physical activities and other some stuff. These habits can cause you depression. However, this isn’t the only factor can cause you depression, many studies show that being an entrepreneur, they feel isolated physically or mentality. Isolation may run the issue of depression.

In fact, in this era, successful entrepreneurs have introduced themselves very differently, they are like a rock star. People eager to listen to their speeches to get motivated. People see them in the very respective way. In the digital world, it is easy to start a business. Many entrepreneurs have built a business by just instructing others how to turn the dream in reality. They build a business empire by creating a podcast, website, online course, and YouTube channel. By creating these sources, they teach them how to create a program, or sell a service every corner, and many others.

Accept doctor, nobody can identify the symptoms of depression because it doesn’t always show you as sadness. However, there is some basic sign that shows you are about to get into it such as changing weight, sleep difficulties, irritability, and many others like this. We all have to keep in mind that less self-care and working long hours can cause you worse effect on our body. INCREASE THE RISK OF SELF-WORTH ISSUES Some enraptures start comparing between self-worth and net worth. However, it is human nature. But being an entrepreneur or profession person, do not let your net worth dictate your self-worth. When their business is doing well in the market, they have high self-esteem it’s like skyrockets. But when they get failed in business or are not able to meet goals, they deal with issues to feel better.

Our social media that show you that entrepreneurial lifestyle is so great, at some point it is true, because being our own boss, you feel so better than others. However, very few people like to talk about the hidden dark side of entrepreneurship. An entrepreneurial lifestyle may wreak havoc on your brain wellbeing. Those entrepreneurs who have faced psychological issues or health issues in the beginning, now they are finally spreading awareness about it all over the world. There are so many studies show that people have been facing some specific higher mental issues. Today I would like to have a conversation about a few of the dark sides of being an entrepreneur.

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 Special Edition December 2021 | INDIA

Most of the entrepreneurs work sunup to sunset and more. they have in mind that if they are going to work harder, they can win the business battle. However, there are so many reports show that only one-third of small businesses survive after three years. The world has taught us that a mantra “Failure isn’t an option,” sometime setback can cause a psychological issue. 46

that their nature becomes obsessive which makes them keep going through, even they face so many issues. Being addictive about something, you may lose your beautiful relationship or one of the most precious things health and both of them. Addiction insists you cross the line and go far from a current situation.

INCREASE RISK OF ANXIETY An entrepreneur faces a lot of issues that don’t cause you under stress, but also increase an enormous amount of pressure. At some point, they have to close the deal because of some financial issues or some other reason. It leads you to incredible anxiety. The majority of entrepreneurs constantly worried about their business, because they struggle to function ordinarily. It is hard for them to spend quality time with family or go on vacation, and attend the party without worrying about their business.

You may think that only serial entrepreneurs are addictive. However, there are many types of research shows that entrepreneurs have addictive personalities, that indicates, entrepreneurs may have some other addictive behaviour like consuming drugs every day or having alcohol. However, there are a majority of entrepreneurs who don’t like to have alcohol and drugs anymore.

Closing after the deal, they may sit at home, during the time they experience a battle inside their brain. on the other hand, they become super irritating, either way, they constantly suffer anxiety issues. to get reduce anxiety in life, everyone should be learning how to balance professional and personal life.

I’m pretty much sure, now you know about the dark side of entrepreneurial life. Entrepreneurs should take a productive approach to stop emotional difficulties. Try to build a strong brain. If you are noticing mental issues or some other kind of health issue, try to contact a doctor before the situation becomes worse. Without having a healthy lifestyle, you won’t even think to become successful in any area. We all should keep in mind a quote while running a business.

INCREASED RISK OF ADDICTION You may be wondered that what makes entrepreneurs keep going through. As much as I know that they are passionate about something. But getting a little deep, you can see

“There is no Health without mental health; mental is too important to be left to the professionals alone, and mental health is everyone’s business.”
