My Story:Part 2 - The RISE & The FALL We stepped in when entrepreneurship in India wasnโ€™t cool or trending. No spotlight, no hype just belief. With โ‚น20k, we filtered through countless ideas until print-on-demand struck. It was everywhere, but it had potential. We hustled day and night trying marketing tricks, testing promotions, learning from failures. Within 3 months, we werenโ€™t just surviving we were thriving. Profits started coming in. Our proudest milestone? Selling 15,000 units of a single design using nothing but creativity, timing, and smart strategy. We felt UNSTOPPABLE. But then COVID struck. Markets crashed. Orders froze. We had just sunk a massive investment into high-end machinery. It was risky but necessary... or so we thought. Now, it felt like a mistake. Uncertainty loomed. We had six months of runway left, but no clarity. It felt like the end. Yet, something was still burning inside us, whispering that it wasnโ€™t over JUST YET... Stay tuned for Part 3 - THE NEW DAWN
