to increase that number so story as I said the first year was just building and no no revenue so when I reach home I was like okay I know building but it didn't work out I tried to add every feature maybe the marketing will work out so I spent one year learn Facebook group growth Facebook pages growth and I also grew manage many chat subscribers so there was a thing which recently came up of building messenger list so I was like okay I'll build that nothing worked zero money I even build a blog called beard and biceps I didn't even have beard myself that time but I was teaching and around I got 30,000 traffic from Pinterest so even there millions of reach but again zero revenue so what happened was there was a page called Charlie Chaplin World Fund he had two million something followers on Facebook he posted that hey I'm selling this page and if someone is interested reach out my thought process was like it's been two years I'm not able to show revenue to my parents and if I were not able to it will be very hard every other day it becomes hard to so I was like okay let me try I'll talk to this guy we had a discussion I was like if I buy this I'll just sell some merch and I'll be able to get some revenue to show my parents that hey this internet thing works because keep in mind my grandfather is literally farmer my father is like government jobs so their mindset is very simple business that's the simple thing they understand so my my theory was very simple never take money from my father but this time it has been two years I was like I am not able to let me just try this so when I talked with him he was like okay negotiated thousand dollars by the way when I think about this I realize how much depreciation of rupees has happened because that time thousand dollars 35,000 rupees and I'm not too old literally that there is literally 2018 or something so I because I was like discussing in rupees and stuff and I was like okay 35,000 rupees I have to pay I had one person who was like he'll be my co-founder he was like hey I'll handle manufacturing you handle the marketing okay so the thing was that guy who was selling the page he was from Pakistan so when I told about that to the family again mother was like you know he's from Pakistan are you sure this and so like no we should not judge like that not everyone is like that and yeah he was like okay make sure payment is and so I was not able to directly pay I paid through Dubai and stuff but once the money reached expected result to be blocked now the thing was two years it was fine okay no revenue at least I had not taken the money from my father but now I have taken when another guy came into the picture my my uncle real uncle he's in this police only so this guy was Pakistani the first the second guy came up and he's like hey dude I can hack your Facebook page for you I was like hi it's mine I have paid for it just can you help so he's like I'll charge 3000 I was like that guy was far from Pakistan I couldn't but my uncle is in police this Indian guy should not be able to same so within a week like I had two of these instances where I was like okay I haven't been able to make money not shown that and now I have taken money also from my father which I never wanted to do so within three days I applied to different jobs I was just 12 parts so I applied for call center jobs I went to the first one and they were like a rejected because I had six month experience attached the I have learned coding they were like you're not so it's over call if I look I was like okay remove this I'm just 12 parts now so second place I applied and then I got selected this is basically me when I was going through the road I just captured a photo the badges of 1.1 so basically have you heard of naptal naptal company of mine so one point was like something like that they'll run ads on TV and I'm supposed to write their address down so that was the job and even there there is a story but yeah so I started a night shift this whole call center journey is there four months I did this then I had to get out because it was very humiliating in the sense where the guy was like if I tell you you have to come till 3am you have to have a choice
