November 18: An individual’s dreams and aspirations are the driving force behind his success. With a strong sense of self-belief, determination, and a pinch of luck, anyone can make their dreams come true.

Jitan is one such individual who is an inspiration to all, not just because of his success but also for the way he achieved it. He’s built his business by following his passions and letting them lead him to success.

The founder of WireMonster, Jitan Kaundal, has always been an ambitious man. He quit three jobs within 9 months after graduating in 2018. Later, he turned down a 30k job offer from a multinational company for a 10k job at a startup to hustle and learn. In fact, he walked away from becoming the CEO of a fast-growing design startup because it wasn’t challenging enough for him.

Every time he made a decision, he knew exactly what he wanted.

But it has not been smooth sailing for the brand growth expert. During periods of quarantine and social distance, when people were able to reinvent themselves or simply rest and pause in their lives, Jitan and his co-founder Siddharth achieved their goal of bringing their dream business to reality.

The determined entrepreneur founded three boot-strapped startups, failed in two, and succeeded in one! Within the initial year of his successful digital startup (The WireMonster), he raked in $50k+ revenue from monthly retainer clients.

When asked about how he scaled WireMonster, he says, “We didn’t think about monetization and how we would make money. We just wanted to get customers and keep building out our services.” He continues, “Being able to assist many small to medium enterprises with their digital marketing strategies and generate qualified results is something that motivates me. I am immensely satisfied knowing that what we are offering is a great fit for the market and will be of great help to these companies, especially in such a saturated market.”

He proudly states, “The first year that my agency was in operation, I bought a BMW out of my pocket. Though I am not working for big ventures like Microsoft or Google, I have a Microsoft-funded startup in Africa as my client, which is an impressive accomplishment in itself.”

For Jitan, it’s not just about doing something he enjoys and being compensated well for it—it’s about creating a legacy.

The entrepreneur adds that we’ve all got a story about how an obstacle, big or small, caused us to veer off course from our goals. Entrepreneurship can be hard on relationships and sleep schedules, but success is even more difficult if you quit before you get there. It may feel like quitting is more secure than continuing onward through rough patches, but quitting will always lead to more time wasted than moving forward ever will.

“Mumbai is not only the country’s commercial hub but also one of the country’s most densely populated cities. The city features a high concentration of office workers and young people who are enthusiastic about their careers. For the most part, a cup of Chai is wishful thinking; we believe in redefining the taste and culture of India by offering a cup of tea in Kulhad and spreading the delight of Chai. The initial Chai Sutta Bar outlet had a fantastic response and acceptance from Mumbai residents, so we decided to extend throughout the city and appeal to the widest possible audience. “On the occasion of the launch, Anubhav Dubey, co-founder of Chai Sutta Bar, said,”

With the passage of time, Kulhad’s brilliant legacy faded, and “Chai” went out of favour. Under this concept, a modern variation of the chai bar opened in July 2016, serving Kadak tea on the bar table with no “sutta breaks.” CSB is a low-cost tea shop that employs potters throughout the year and also hires orphans to help them feel independent and valued. Even in the midst of the pandemic, they were able to successfully distribute SafeTea across the country, bringing hope and happiness into people’s lives. We hope to grow enormously with our marvelous locations in Mumbai and celebrate chai with cheers & chuski.

Strong Planning and Customer Support Leads to 27% Market Share

Solid Business Position Continues into 2021

 November 17: Kingston Technology, a world leader in memory products and technology solutions,, today announced TrendForce has named it as the number one supplier of SSDs in the channel for all of 2020. According to TrendForce, Kingston accounted for a whopping 27 per cent of the 111.5 million units shipped in 2020.

With the emergence of COVID-19 in 2020, TrendForce reported a 15% YoY decrease in annual SSD shipments to the channel and severe delays in manufacturing and logistics, resulting in a sudden decline in order volumes. Yet, findings show through Kingston’s global strategy for sourcing components; the company was well ahead of its competitors, considering a global pandemic and looming chip shortage. The results reinforced Kingston as the clear leader in SSD production, as the second-place supplier accounted for only 8 per cent of the total channel market. As a category, third-party suppliers (non-semiconductor) SSD makers accounted for65% of the total shipments in 2020.

Kingston Technology’s presence in the market is widely due to its strong relationships with customers and channel partners worldwide. As the ongoing health crisis swept through the world and businesses moved fast to adapt, Kingston continued to offer top-tier sales support and access to in-house product experts and engineers who embody the “Kingston Is With You” working attitude that has led to three successful decades of reliability and support for customers. Kingston’s #1rankin the SSD market is no surprise when the same approach in the DRAM division has led the company to be the largest third-party memory module supplier for the 18^th consecutive year.

“The 2020research findings reinforce Kingston’s growing presence and position in the SSD market,” said Kingston.“The COVID-19 pandemic has largely impacted and accelerated the worldwide demand of SSDs, with remote working and education as the key drivers behind last year’s surge continuing through 2021 into next year. With that, we continue to solidify our offerings with distinct SATA and NVMe solutions in the client space and growing enterprise solutions for a variety of applications and host environments.”

Kingston has no plans in slowing down, having just added two PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSDs to its portfolio with the addition of KC3000 and Kingston FURY Renegade SSD.  The high-performance drives joined Kingston’s family of client SSDs to enable those who demand speed and reliability to handle intensive games and application workloads on desktops and laptop PCs.
