Success startup K. Jyothi Story
Or that following your dreams does not pay well?
K.
Jyothi followed her dreams and thanks to a startup, is now making her dreams her
new reality.
Jyothi had always
been interested in the art of applying makeup and cosmetics, and used to love
watching her mother get ready for social events and such. Daily makeup is
almost negligible in Chennai, and hence, often considered pointless by a lot of
women. She wanted to change this thought process and prove how women do not
need to put on a lot of makeup to feel beautiful.
As she says, “A little amount
of makeup when applied perfectly can work wonders and give you a gorgeous
appearance.” And to this end, she decided to become a makeup artist and change
this perception, one makeover at a time.
Jyothibegan her
career as an assistant to a beautician in the local parlour. One thing led to
another and Jyothi moved from parlour to parlour as a trained beautician,
learning all the tricks of the trade and gaining as much experience as she
could.
However, a big change in her life came when she heard of UrbanClap through
clients and ads on the internet. While there is a lot of distrust prevalent in
hiring services off the internet, UrbanClap stood out.
“A couple of my clients
had tried it out for a Home Cleaning service and liked their experience and the
ease with which they could book this service. Being successful isn’t just about
doing things well, but also about doing things well at the right time. And so I
became one of the first makeup artistson boarded on UrbanClap in Chennai.”
It was a risky
venture that had the potential to derail her steady life with her husband and
two kids but necessary, she felt, to grow her career and reach more customers. And
she wasn’t disappointed. UrbanClap has helped her develop as an expert
beautician and encounter a variety of makeup requests that make every day more
challenging and exciting.
“The increased income due to UrbanClap’s constant
support is an added benefit. I can now support myself and my family with my
income, while saving money for the future.
My children can now look forward to
a better life with more opportunities before them.” Jyothi used to earn
approximately INR 7500 for full time work and 4000 from part time jobs. She is
presently earning above INR 20,000 per month.
Life is good. Why
shouldn’t it be? After all, having the courage of following your dreams makes
all the difference.
