Hemanshu Pathak

Hemanshu Pathak here. I run my business from my home, which we call Shiv-Shakti. It is house number 41 in the Amrapali Society in Karelibaug, Baroda. This is in Gujarat, and it is a nice, quiet residential area. We have been living here for a long time, and eventually, I just started working from one of the front rooms. It is a family environment, so you might hear the TV in the background or someone cooking in the kitchen while I am on a call. We do not have a formal office setup with cubicles. It is just a big wooden table and a few chairs. Neighbors often stop by to say hello, which can be a bit distracting but it is friendly. I handle most of the work myself, though my brother helps with the deliveries when he is around. We do not do any big advertising. Most people in Karelibaug just know me and what I do. It is a very local thing. The society is peaceful, which I like. Sometimes the dogs bark at the mailman, but otherwise, it is a good place to focus. I do not use any fancy corporate jargon. I just tell people what I can do and then I do it. It is a simple way to run things, and it works for us here at Shiv-Shakti. We just take it one day at a time and work hard.
