₹1 Cr inquiry. ₹60L procurement + ₹40L civil work. We will save them 15% on ₹60L worth of procurement. But they won’t go ahead unless we also take up ₹40L of civil work which we don’t do. Sometimes, saving money isn’t enough. Clients want one throat to choke, not two

so many Twitter bios say angel investor but when you reach out, they say they don’t invest in startups. What am I missing?

Our WhatsApp channel is buzzing. People are quoting, deals are moving, and @pneucons is expanding fast. If you’re looking for new customers worldwide, this is your signal.

Yesterday we onboarded this seller.
A seller I stopped chasing years ago reached out last night. We had a 40-minute call today and he drained me with questions. Not one was about how his business could grow. Every single one was about why we charge subscription upfront and what we provide compared to others.
