Instamojo has always been looking to help other startups and help grow the ecosystem. One such opportunity was enabling Pracly sell their services. Pracly is a platform where startups can seek advice from experienced entrepreneurs and domain experts on\u00a0any business problem over a call. This is what Ritesh, the Co-founder of Pracly\u00a0had to say about us.<\/p>\n

Starting up is difficult. All of us know that. Especially in our 20\u2019s, without much experience. We either form a team of close friends and then try to\u00a0think of\u00a0an \u2018idea\u2019 or\u00a0are passionate about something\u00a0and go around convincing friends that this is the \u2018idea\u2019\u00a0in which they should\u00a0invest the next\u00a0X years of their life. Once all this is sorted and the idea and team are in place, comes the big question \u2013 how do we execute it? No one has a clue. Things were all rosy in the drawing room and coffee table discussions, but not so much when\u00a0we think about doing it. As it happens, the world doesn\u2019t care about your product as much as you do.<\/p>\n

For a startup, it\u2019s vital to get out there and get all the relevant information rather than building the entire product based on assumptions.\u00a0We, at Pracly<\/strong>, followed the lean way and began talking to people with just a landing page. Fortunately, we realized that our potential customers could see value in our service \u2013 connecting entrepreneurs to\u00a0experts for business advice. Instead of building the entire platform firsthand, we launched a basic version initially and added features based on feedback.<\/a><\/p>\n

Sometime into our endeavor, we realized that true validation of our idea could only happen once users were willing to pay for our services, and honestly speaking it wasn\u2019t a very happy realization. With this came the hassle of integrating an entire payment gateway, of which no one in the team had prior experience.<\/strong> Sure, with tons of e-commerce sites coming up, people are doing it, but it eats into the\u00a0time and bandwidth of a small team to learn and implement it. It spells considerable delay in market validation.<\/p>\n

We had a chat with Akash from Instamojo\u00a0during a Hackathon and learnt how\u00a0one could\u00a0possibly sell anything on Instamojo.\u00a0And when we did actually check it out, we realized that we don\u2019t have to do anything \u2013 it\u2019s all there! We could\u00a0charge for\u00a0our services through Instamojo, completely customize it and also re-direct the user back to our website after the payment. <\/strong>All we had to do is create tickets on\u00a0Instamojo and link it to our website. Voila! More than two weeks of work reduced to just half a day. Such is the power of the platform!<\/p>\n

Platforms\u00a0such as\u00a0Instamojo make\u00a0the life of new entrepreneurs easier than it was before\u00a0and provide us the much needed support at different stages in our startup journey. We have used the services of American Tech giants, but using the services of an Indian startup in building our\u00a0platform also gave us a sense of trust in our ecosystem.<\/p>\n

‘It\u2019s the (Insta) Mojo Rising!’<\/em><\/p>\n
