You only want money- right!

You only want money- right!

A year ago i never thought where i would be. At 35 years, i quit my corporate job, to persue my dream to get into the fitness industry. I started a small youtube channel to share my fitness experience with people with the intention of keeping it simple, honest and transparent. 

I had no business plan, even though i have an MBA degree from an ivy business school. Honesty is such a powerful tool, within six months launch of my fitness channel, tarun gill fitness was one of the most subscribed fitness channel in India. Taking that honesty ahead i ventured into the health and food supplements vertical which to me was an area that needed immediate attention since the market was and still is filled with counterfeits. 

Within first three months of its launch, my food supplements company broke even simply because it had one intention, to sell not just genuine product but a quality product. 

The extension of that food supplement lead me to create a recognition platform, TG Connect, for Indian athletes because i felt they don't get their due share from the government or people for their exceptional contribution to the Indian sports industry. 

This platform witnessed massive growth from being a small basic event for upcoming, needy and under-privileged athletes to now an international property attracting international star athletes to be a part of this. 

Why am i sharing this, simply to tell you that the word business is not negative neither political. I am not a business man nor a shrewd, street smart business leader. All i have is my honesty and intentions to serve my customers who i don't even call my customers, i call them my brothers. Unfortunately this is something no business school teaches you how to be honest and ethical, its part of your character. Don't compromise on your character by running after people's money in the name of profits, rather add value to people lives and money will follow.
