Banapuram Venkatesh

I set up Banapuram Venkatesh here at H No: 7-175/3 in Sai Nagar Colony. It’s a decent spot in Ghatkesar. My house is basically where I do all my work, so the line between home and business is pretty thin. Most mornings I’m just sitting at my desk trying to get through the paperwork. Sai Nagar Colony is usually quiet, except when the school bus comes through. I’ve lived here long enough that everyone knows my name. I don't really do much advertising because people just hear about me from their neighbors or friends. If you’re looking for the place, look for the blue gate with the chipped paint. Sometimes my kids are running around while I’m trying to talk to someone about a job, but that’s just how it is. It’s a family-run thing, really. I handle the main tasks and my wife helps with the record keeping when she has time after her own work. Ghatkesar has grown so much since I first started out. There are new shops opening every week near the main road. I like being close to home because I don't have to deal with the long commute into the city every single morning. It’s simple work but it keeps us busy and fed. I try to finish everything by the evening so I can spend some time outside in the garden. It’s not a big corporate setup, just me doing what I know how to do.
