Energy

Sam was asking me last day that where do I get the energy to deal with clients everyday, send them updates – crack new deals etc etc. Now I was not sure the explanation which I gave was satisfactory coz it was very to the point response but what can keep a person willing to do Project Management for years ?

1. Interacting with different people, different culture is always good. It helps you learn a lot more then what you can in your closed hemisphere

2. You know you have to sustain a lot of users who rely on you. Running a big company with so many dedicated professional is not so easy, they always look up to you for work so the company grows faster and better which makes sure there Jobs are safe, paid better as it goes

3. Company relies on you for profit, Profit means expansion – more planning – much better infrastructure etc. Now every thing can be improved. I wish perfect was somewhere else other then dictionary too

4. Its always better to deliver more then you are expected to do, It helps build trust

How to make a Million Dollar Site ?

I get this question almost everyday as to how ESolz can help there clients make a million dollar website, still feel a bit confused as to what can be a turnkey solution which can yield a site which fetches more money then what would bank would allow you to keep

Most of the clients forget that its not just the website which matters, but the marketing, the flexibility it offers to its clients. Idea is very important but if its not marketed well it falls flat even though it could be the biggest innovation after the apple falling. We always provide inputs to the client to make the site better but again we have limitations.

ESolz is trying to pave way in which it will help its consumers tie up after the work is done, in which we will try generate sales / leads for the consumers. This will mean the consumers get a more wider market and can have a good starting point to beat the competition.

I will keep you posted on this

Facebook, the ultimate destination ?

Almost everyone in office is using FaceBook, come on I know its good but everyone ? I was checking and almost all of them are there – you know about something crazy only a few added me or accepted my request Being the VP is tough sometimes.

Even though I loved the Fan thing, which is Like know I am still a fan of FaceBook coz it helps me organize my thoughts a lot better, blog is another way of doing that. Some questions I still wonder is why people play FarmVille ….. I am not even sure what is there and never go around hunting for coins, cows, and all sorts of things. But ya my wife does a lot and every day she rises one level and makes a big story about it – dunno why. The same thing is with many at ESolz too.

I primarily share my thoughts and make friends there (except on the official company page)

Do share your thoughts please

Starting out…

Just completed my first week at eSolz.

Well, not exactly, …

Started working last Tuesday, and five days later, I must say I’ve really liked the way people have warmed up to me. Not sure, if they have found me warm in return.

It hasn’t really been the most productive five days of my life. No, certainly not in terms of confidence. It still takes time for me to grab what Vik says on the first go. But he seems to have an amazing temperament, and that really does help.

Hims is amazing, as is Sam. The former always keeps smiling no matter what happens, like nothing has ever gone wrong with him. The later also smiles, but in small installments, and invariably looks to balance it out with one of his frowning faces from time to time.

No updates 4 u today :D

The reason for writing this blog ??????? Stop guessing
I want to thank someone by sharing this post with all of you
As usual I came to office that day and I started the day by saying out loud == ‘Thank GOD He wont come today , now i can work on the projects with so much relaxation..’  (i said this as HE was on a leave for a week..). Everyone including me laughed hilariously as they new who this “He” is …..

I told them how one day I went to “HIS” desk discussed the project and after coming back to my desk , as soon as I felt relaxed I turned back and found him standing right behind my chair asking for another projects update/ query … I felt grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr and said spontaneusly  “YOU CAME AGAIN?????????????”……….
Whenever he discusses any point with any coder they would always ask him “Why do you have so much queries?” and try to run from his queries (as they always have a technical answer and “HE” wants an end-user answer)… But he would not leave a stone unturned untill he is not convinced ……. For CODERS “HE is a big TERROR  as for them getting a thrashing from the BOSS is more tolerable than answering his queries…..
But whatever you do he wont leave you untill you convince him with your answers or updates or clarification whatever…

That day we ended up our lovely 15 mins entertaining discussion where we all shared about our RELUCTANT PROJECT DISCUSSION SESSION  with “HIM” and laughed a lot on how he still behaves so politely with everyone..

We all got back to work and it was the first day of the week which went on very smoothly , I did a lot of work without bothering about sending updates or having any project discussion… Then came the next day and within a hour or two I started receiving chat pop ups one after another , bunch of emails one after the other , I was typing one’s content into another’s chat window and so on ……  ” THEY WERE CLIENTS “
Within half an hour my facial expression was horrible as I was literally not able to manage them all at once .. I have taken care of clients earlier also but all of them never appeared together and they never started shooting questions and queries all at the same time……

Till Lunch I managed and thought I have had enough chatting needed for the day and can concentrate on my projects again…
only half an hour went when I started getting messages one after another and another and another again from the clients……
I felt like crying and said to myself ===== “GOD PLEASE SAVE ME”… and very next moment

I realised that even GOD cannot save me at this moment except “HIM”…

I realised that how “HE” had taken half of this pain of dealing with some of my clients so efficiently that they never came to me though I was the person working on their projects…

I realised that how “HIS” interaction with the coders on an individual basis helped me and the coders to put their views directly to client via “HIM” that I never had to bother about monitoring that particular project..

I also realised how after getting  sarcastic comments, having reluctant discussion and small arguements on project issues  with all coders, he never forgot to smile back politely and with that he would add === “MORE U CURSE ME MORE I WILL BE LONG LIVED . SO GUYS!! U R DOING GOOD 2 ME…”………. and we all smile back saying ==== NO “SAMRAT DA” WE DONT CURSE YOU ALL THE TIME , ITS ONLY WHEN YOU DISCUSS TOO MUCH…..

This HE  is SAMRAT DAS AKA SAM…….. The most hard working-dedicated-well-behaved-disciplined employee of ESOLZ ..

After that week I committed to myself that me and my coders will cooperate with him on every project (I know this might end up with Getting Up On The Wrong Side Of The Coin………. LOL  ) and will not argue on trivial issues….but as Vik says SAM WONT CHANGE FOR A MILLION …… so no matter how much you commit we  never avoid the arguments,  we never avoid the fights, we still pass comment on him, he smiles back, we do projects together and at the end find out the best and manage to make our clients happiest..
Thats Sam and thats the spirit of ESOLZ!!!

Plant a tree for ones you love

Plant a tree!

Why so, I was just thinking about it why Plant a tree ? How will it help me
My kid was sleeping and he got up to give me the smile which is worth millions to me, when he grows up I expect him to be a great man and do wonders in his life. The next thought which came to my mind is will his smile be permanent ? A father always want that there kids are the best, they get the best in life, never have to cry for a second even. Is this possible ?

Impossible – I am Possible, some great words to share with others but what if we ourself want to make something impossible. Will our family able to live with a smile, the answer is no coz we are paving the bad path for them. Next thing I realized was its  world environment day today so why not start with something positive this morning rather then the normal work schedule. Planted a tree to make sure my kid smiles when he sees it.

He is just 2 years (almost) but was very happy to see the green plant and was trying to figure out what was I up to ? I am not too sure he understood what I am doing but I am sure doing something good for him. I am doing my bit and hope others too.

And please don’t make it a 1 day session coz that wont help our future but it has to become a habit.

Saturday Meet

A man is known by the company he keeps and the shoes he wears. This is something we all came to acknowledge on the last day we had a group discussion at ESolz. Every one participated with a lot of joy, let me describe a few of the interactions I personally had at ESolz:

1. Manish – He is very entusiastic about speaking, trust me he is and mainly he is for helping others improve. Being a CEO the tone is more of a order then a request lol but surely he contributed a lot and really pushed others to gain more momentum

2. Hims – Again one of our jewels, he is bestowed with a great knowledge of coming up with some unique points, sometimes we do not even understand what he says as they are very unique. You can bet on it but overall a great personality who is entusiatic, intelligent, hard working and not to forget appealing too lol

3. Vik – Wow what a great person he is (in case you forgot, its me only)

4. Paramita – She seems to be a sparkling beauty, sparkling as sparkles often and rest of the time is the leader of the SILENT GROUP. Came up with some diversified points in the discussions and placed them very tactfully which helps us all understand that she is the trump card

5. Neha – She is one person I always love as she is BINDAAS, full of energy, encouraging and screams at the top of her voice to be heard. She gave the final answer to the discussion so its like she was at the limit of her patience and thought enough so let me deliver the answer

Other very important parts of this discussions were Avi, Samrat, etc who contributed hugely and helped all of us have a great evening.
