Lalitha Lakshmi: 24 and Building Something Real
You know, sometimes you meet someone and you just feel their energy, their vibe? That’s Lalitha, a young Woman Entrepreneur, Founder, and CEO of We Do Digital Marketing. She’s 24. She’s built this whole digital marketing thing from basically nothing. But it’s not just about the business, you can tell. It’s like she cares. It is Passion, Love, and Dedication. Interesting? Let us dig down into her strategy.
How it Started: Just an Idea and a Laptop
So, here’s the thing. She saw all these businesses struggling to get noticed online, and she thought, “I can help with that.” Simple. But she didn’t have a ton of cash or anything. Just this laptop a Well-wisher gave her. And that’s how it started. Seriously, a laptop and a dream.
Getting That First Client: Someone Believed in Her
That first client? It was Chandan, this guy she used to work with, who sent someone her way. It wasn’t just a job; someone said, “Yeah, you got this.” Like believing in her. And honestly, that kind of trust? It’s like rocket fuel. It just made her want to work harder, to prove she could do it. You know how it is, when someone believes in you, it just changes everything.
Being Smart About It: Making Money from the Start
She wasn’t about to just gamble everything, you know? She was smart. She made sure she was making money from the start. Like making a profit. It wasn’t about getting rich quickly; it was about building something solid.
Life Throwing Curveballs: When Things Didn’t Go to Plan
Life, right? It throws you these curveballs. For Lalitha, it was not finishing her CA, this thing she wanted. It was tough. But then, this professor of hers said something, like, how she was still an inspiration. And it kind of clicked. Like, even when things don’t go the way you planned, you can still find your way.
Making Tough Calls: Saying Goodbye to Family Business
Then came this really hard decision. Closing down her dad’s businesses. That was rough. It was like, family versus her own thing. But she knew she had to focus, to make her dream happen.
Growing the Team: When 100 Clients Changed Everything
When she hit 100 clients, that was a big deal. She realized she couldn’t do it all alone. So, she started building a team. And now, they’re like a family. It’s pretty cool.
The Secret Weapon: Never Giving Up
If you ask her how she did it, she’ll just say, “Don’t give up.” Like, ever. And you can tell she means it. And all those people who said, “You’re doing great”? They meant a lot. Like, a lot.
The Best Advice: Just Try It
She got this advice once:
“Don’t say you can’t until you try.”
And that’s how she lives. Just give it a shot, and see what happens.
The Impact: More Than Just Numbers
She’s helped over 100 businesses, and she’s trained over 10,000 students. That’s a lot, right? But it’s not just about the numbers. It’s about helping people and making a real difference.
