Experiencing a new world

 Multi Generation Family Sitting On Sofa At Home Watching TV Stock ...  Photos: Lockdown in Hyderabad

At last all our dreams like - being with family, studying from home, working from home.. everything has come true.  Many a times when we were kids, we would have thought, to stay home and study, play all the day, to see empty roads, no tension of getting up early.. no tension of cooking fast.. no tension of reaching late to office..  We relax at home and at the same time are able to work..

It is up to us, to utilize the available time in the most productive way and try to accomplish, if not all, some of our dreams to come true.

Though, there are many drawbacks, like not getting groceriess and provisions properly, still it is a precious time, which we can cherish for our life time. Because its for sure, such a situation may not occur in our life time ever. May be we will be the one to tell to our future generation that, we were in quarantine or lock down or section 144 imposed still no action were taken on the law breakers.

Best Digital Marketing Internship program ever



I have some interesting facts to share with, about the latest trends of marketing which has become digital from the traditional one. And digital marketing has evolved during this pandemic situation. 

As people stay at home and try to avoid coming out, they are moving more towards the online platforms for - watching movies, listening music, shopping households provisions, learning, reading books, working from home.  

As per the data of Datareportal.com, it states that the Social media users have grown by more than 10% over the past year, taking the global total to 3.96 billion by the start of July 2020.

This means that – for the first time – more than half of the world’s population now uses social media. Growth trends indicate that an average of more than 1 million people started using social media for the first time every single day over the past 12 months, equating to almost 12 new users every second.

So having a good potential for any online product, I wanted to learn digital marketing and join a good training program. After much introspection, I joined an Internship programme conducted by Mr.Deepak - popularly known as Digital Deepak.

His program is very unique when compared to others, everyone just teaches that particular subject. But, he is the one, who genuinely cares about our personal growth and wants you to really succeed in the life and business.  

You may think I'm exaggerating, but I can give you an example, during the first week of the training program he shared a video - “Success Mindset” it was very motivating and inspiring. The training session includes basic skill, confidence building, communication and personality development along with the regular marketing course.  

Now in the second week he has given an introduction on what is digital marketing and why it is needed?

Mentor to ambitious women

 


Geethapriya is an Indian e-learning entrepreneur, founder of “Tech4 Tutor.com in 2020.  After 5 year, which is now India’s largest digital services marketing platform with 3 million registered users, and is expanding and stepping in the foreign market as well.

She holds graduation in B.Ed, Master’s in Commerce, and an MBA in Human Resource is also a Digital marketing expert.

Geethapriya began her career in an export company as Asst.Manager. After perusing her B.Ed she worked in educational institutions as co-ordinator assisting and guiding staffs and subordinates to fulfill the educational need of the institution.

While the pandemic situation during the year 2020 exposed weaknesses for businesses in many ways, it has also shown a new reality of virtual working and learning. She is now a E-learning coach,  Social entrepreneur, a freelancer, Blogger, Affiliate marketer and a Podcaster.

Her business may be words rather than commodities but provides an excellent source of informal mentorship. It all started as a part-time, for 40 year old Geethapriya but soon her small venture of social marketing gave way to one of the greatest resources for educators by offering mentorship, guidance and expertise for free to empower women.  She is happy about the fact that she is contributing to transforming people’s lives. She also shares her success mantra – a video for a perfect daily routine.

She is known for speaking her mind and is a great advocate of women rights and encourages women to fight their fears and do what they want to do. Genuinely caring about and connecting with people. Its not just – customers or tribe – every person who come in her ecosystem has a story, hopes and dreams.   For years, women’s have made to feel that it should be okay with settling for less, but women should get what they think they deserve for.  Is the strong belief of Geethapriya.  “Women under estimate themselves and think they don’t have the time or skills to compete with men”.  The key to success isn’t a straightforward path. It doesn’t happen overnight, and it’s different for everyone. Every success story is unique.

I hope you found her incredible and inspiring as I do!
