I'm Pradeep, a serial founder and IIT Kharagpur alumni based in Bengaluru. I founded 100Marks, which was acquired by Reliance Jio's Embibe, built & ran GlowPink, a D2C skin care brand. Today I run FirstCrore, where I teach aspiring Indian entrepreneurs, especially from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, how to build real businesses in D2C, e-commerce and sourcing. Book a call if you want practical help with starting or growing a D2C brand, validating a business idea, sourcing, or building a content-led audience. No theory, just what I've learned from building, selling and shutting down companies.
