South Asian Wedding Blogger Brand Reveal
This brand and website have been a long and fun time in the making — I am so excited to announce the launch of The Maharani Diaries! The Maharani Diaries (TMD) is a premium South Asian Wedding Guide.
I was blessed with the opportunity to work with Poonam Gururajan, the founder of TMD. Her work ethic and the level of service she provides to her clients is inspiring. We were working with a 6-hour time difference since she’s basked in the U.K. And Australia. Sometimes she would be up at 2:00 AM her time talking with me, making sure everything was perfect. After working with Poonam over the course of 7 months on her brand identity suite and strategy, fully-customized WordPress website, vendor directory, and online shop for brides I have gathered valuable pointers on what makes a successful business owner whose just starting out in the wedding industry.
You have to be willing to put in the work
Success doesn’t happen overnight and it doesn’t come easy. You have to hustle and be willing to work to become successful, however, Rome wasn’t built in a day either. Building an empire is a slow task that takes time. Just because you’re working hard doesn’t mean it’ll make the journey to success any faster.
You have to know what you want and be willing to go after it
Poonam knew exactly what she wanted. You don’t necessarily have to know exactly what you want, but you do need a destination of where you’re going. You can’t build a roadmap to get you to where you want to go if you don’t know where that place is.
You have to stand up for what you believe in
A moral compass in business is vital if you want to succeed. You need to stand for something. If your business decisions aren’t influenced by your moral compass then those morals aren’t working for you. Honesty is huge in my business. If any problem arises, my clients will be the first to know. Transparency is something I personally strive for.
Overall, if you’re hitting these points then eventually you will see the fruits of your labor. I am so glad I get to call Poonam my friend and I got to be apart of her entrepreneurial journey. I cannot wait to see how she rises to the top of the South Asian Wedding Community!
You have to invest in your brand and business
In order for others to believe in you; you have to believe in yourself first. If I go to a website and it’s a free domain that they didn’t pay for I automatically take them a little less seriously. If you don’t believe in yourself enough to pay $10 for a custom domain then why should I believe in you? Investing in your brand identity and business will make you feel confident in yourself. It’ll also make you appear to potential clients like the true professional that you are.
