1. What’s your source of motivation?
The customer satisfaction and the compliments I get for the work I do. I left my IT job, because after a year of working it felt like a monotonous job. I wanted every day to be inspiring and wanted to enjoy my work. I turned my hobby of examining gemstones into my business. When we deliver our product, our customers get back to me and say, it’s very beautiful, we love what you’ve made, it gives me an immense push to keep growing and moving. Every morning, I remember the things that got me to what I’m today, it gives me an immense energy to keep going and growing.

We want to end that, we provide the best quality for the best price. Our product listing is very elaborative, all products are certified undoubtedly.
3. What’s your competitive advantage and why can’t it be copied?
We have numerous services under one roof.

8. Tell me about an accomplishment you are most proud of.
I have achieved DOCTORATE IN FIELD OF GEMOLOGY at a very young age that’s the biggest achievement I’m proud of.
9. How do you handle the pressure?
I actually sit down, write down the ways I can treat the things that are causing pressure, then come to a decision and work in that way. In fact, challenging environment is what I love.
10. What advice would you give to someone starting out?
Launch before you feel it’s ready. If you wait until your product or service feels perfect, someone else will already be doing a better job of helping your customers solve their problems. Validate your business idea by launching fast, bringing on a small group of paying customers and adapting to make your solution great for them over time. Hence launch it fast, after making a few sales and you gain a group of customers, take feedback and keep on improvising.
