From Setbacks to Success: Gina Gadhvi on building Organzza

Gina Gadhvi: The biggest hurdle of my life was when the devastating loss of everything I had worked for over 25 years. It was a harsh lesson learned through making big mistakes in my small-sized business, primarily relying on too few clients and vendors. However, from the ashes of failure rose a renewed determination to succeed, fueled by the inspiration of my mother, who introduced me to the world of entrepreneurship at a young age.

My journey began with humble beginnings, working under my mother's guidance at the age of 14, earning a meager Rs 25 per day. Yet, those early experiences instilled in me a deep sense of perseverance and a hunger for success. Despite setbacks, I refused to let failure define me. Instead, I pivoted my entire business model towards the digital realm, transforming the way I operated and interacted with clients.

The transition to a digital platform was not without its challenges, but it opened up a world of opportunities. No longer was I constrained by the limitations of traditional brick-and-mortar operations. I embraced the mantra of "make money while you sleep," leveraging technology to engage with clients, showcase designs, and streamline processes. By diversifying my client base and delegating tasks effectively, I reduced dependency on any single source of income, ensuring the longevity and stability of my business.

Along the way, I learned invaluable lessons as an entrepreneur. I discovered the power of delegation, letting go of the need to control every aspect of my business. By sharing profits and fostering a sense of ownership among my team, I cultivated a culture of collaboration and innovation.

Despite the setbacks, my journey has been marked by notable achievements. Starting with a mere Rs 50,000 borrowed capital, I scaled my business to a turnover of Rs 80 lakhs in the first year alone. But my ambitions extend far beyond financial success. I envision expanding my reach to at least 15 countries, spreading the ethos of excellence and customer-centric service that defines my brand.

My Advice is simple; Become a super-specialist in your niche, believe in your vision, and never lose sight of the value you bring to your customers.
