Hi all!
I am Dr. Sudeep Shroff, a psychiatrist & psychotherapist.
I have my offline consulting practice, a doctor (gynaecologist) wife and two lovely kids. Internet Entrepreneurship has always excited me since i first got hooked onto it around 7 to 8 years back. I did not have any technical background for computers and the internet, but has always believed that the internet is the best platform for connecting with people, and getting your message out to help those who are really looking for it.
It does take a lot of learning, trial & errors, a network of like-minded people, patience and commitment to flexibly stick with your goals.
It took me many years figuring out how so many pieces of this puzzle fit together for making things work online. I consider myself a life-long learner, and feel grateful for being with the people like you in these forums.
In India, the real difficulty that we face for making things work online is the payment processing stuff. Paypal is wonderful, but unfortunately it still does not process domestic payments in India. I can receive money via Paypal from an international customer/client, but someone from India cannot pay me using Paypal platform.
I have recently figured out various tools which work together well, and are the optimum platforms for me to execute on. They are ActiveCampaign, Elegant Themes, Shopify, Paypal and PayUMoney (Indian Payment Processer).
I am excited to learn from other people here, and will always be happy to share my learnings with others.
Cheers…
Dr. Sudeep Shroff
