An Inspiring Success Story of Bhageerath

“Happiness comes not from the money you earn, but from the work you do that you love the most”, says Bhageerath. Very few people succeed in making their passion as their profession. Bhageerath is one of them. This story briefs the journey of Bhageerath towards choosing his career as a digital marketer, the odds he faced during this process, the situations that inspired him the most and how he faced the society during his hardships.

Background

Born in a middle class family, he didn’t opt for choosing routine courses like engineering, commerce or medicine. His business perspective moved him towards Business Administration and graduated from BBA in the year 2011 from Guru Nanak Dev University, Delhi. His main strength are his parents who gave him the freedom to choose his path that he loves. Since his childhood Bhageerath has a broad thinking and he never restricted his knowledge and experience to a particular place. This made him go to different places like Vizag, Guntur and Delhi for pursuing his education. As soon as he completed his BBA he rejected a job with a handsome package in marketing profile. When asked for the reason, he said that he wants to gain global marketing knowledge and planned to pursue MBA abroad.

University of Wales and Trinity, U.K

His GMAT score got him an admission into the University of Wales and Trinity St.David, one of the top universities in the United Kingdom. His father being a salaried employee, couldn’t afford the expenses to send Bhageerath to the U.K. To make his dream come true, his father never looked back and applied for a loan. Meanwhile, Bhageerath passed the scholarship tests and fled to Wales University. Throughout the course he had an excellent academic record and his talent towards advertising and marketing differentiated him as a unique student among others.

If we don’t do what we love, we can’t do it with much conviction and passion

This is the only philosophy Bhageerath follows. He acquired the global marketing knowledge that he sought for and learnt the international marketing insights throughout his course in the U.K. For his creative approach in every aspect, he was offered 6 lakh per annum in an India based MNC that runs on traditional marketing. As usual he rejected the job. He felt it odd to work in a traditional segment because, his core subject in MBA was online advertising. He chose such a subject for a reason. The case studies and the projects that he dealt with in MBA were all about Apple, Amazon, and other successful businesses which are popular for their online presence. 

Hence his top priority remained digital marketing, as it is the perfect field to apply all his creative advertising and marketing skills. He believes that we can’t give up to the core if we don’t do what we love. He explained about his passion to his parents, convinced them and started searching for an Institute where his creativity can be nourished and a platform for becoming a digital marketer will be set.

“Digital Ready made me Industry Ready”

In his search for a digital marketing training institute in Hyderabad, he came to know about Digital Ready and felt that it would be the best choice for setting up a path for his future in digital marketing. “In my 18 years experience, I have seen a few students with such dedication and passion for the subject. Bhageerath stands first among all of them”, Mr.Chiranjeevi Maddala, founder of Digital Ready. The course is specially designed to bring out the creativity of students and make them stand as a professional digital marketer in the Industry. 

As a part of practical training, he used to apply all his advertising and marketing skills to bring out creative and effective campaigning strategies. The support from his trainer made him more passionate about digital marketing. “Had it not been for Digital Ready, all my curiosity and a long wait to prove myself as a digital marketer would have gone in vain”, says Bhageerath. As soon as he got certified in digital marketing course from digital ready, he was offered a job in SWEET Digital, one of the top digital marketing agencies in Hyderabad. The profile Digital Marketing Analyst is what he dreamed of with a handsome package, he never looked back and joined the organization. 

Within a year, he has reached great heights, gained everything that he sacrificed all these years and made his parents feel proud of him. He says that if everything goes fine, he would establish a startup where the like minded youngsters could find a way to live their passion as a digital marketer.

His words for the youngsters

When he returned to India, everyone made fun of him and started commenting as he had no job even though he graduated from Wales University. They named him as a worthless guy and faced a lot of intolerance from his relatives. “Society always finds a way to drag you down. One day will definitely be yours, and all the people who trolled you will be answered. Just wait for that day and believe in yourself”, Bhageerath. Your dedication towards your passion never lets you down. This is what we have observed from the story of Bhageerath. He says that in whatever field we are passionate about, we have to sacrifice everything and work to the core. Some day our patience and hard work will be paid and will be gifted with everything that we are striving for.
