Without a physical address in his early years of franchising, Rahul’s approach to his prospects was very proactive, by bringing the printing service to the clients doorstep. He would inform them: ‘I will come to you to understand your requirements and you will not have to leave your office’. This worked well with the majority of his clients, as it saved them a trip to a shop and leaving the comfort of their office facility.
Rahul studied printing technology in India and the UK. He started his career on the production floor and worked his way up to customer service and sales to get closer to his dream of starting his own business. After studying in UK, he visited the Drupa exhibition in Germany – the printing industry’s Mecca. The Drupa exhibition opened Rahul’s eyes to tremendous opportunities in the printing industry.
