The 2019 elections saw a lot of buzz and excitement, and in this chaos, we launched a campaign for the MSME sector, IAMMSME. In the campaign, we ran a poll asking Indian entrepreneurs to vote for three of their most pressing challenges.

This is what we found:

  • Over 70% of the respondents said they could not expand or start a business because there was a lack of information in the market.
  • The other problems lay in a lack of marketing skills and business acumen.

This just reinforced our belief that a small business in India or a potential entrepreneur needs the right information from reliable sources to help them scale their efforts.

Late last year, we decided to do something about this problem. Our CEO, Sampad, walked into a room and pitched to us a vision that can enable anybody to get access to business and skill development information for FREE. At first, it felt ambitious but six months and an exit poll later, we have launched a solution that can not just help a budding entrepreneur start his journey but also help existing businesses grow on the internet.

Introducing mojoVersity

Easy Lessons from Expert Partners

mojoVersity is the first of it’s kind. Courses on the platform are crafted in collaboration with expert partners like LegalWiz, DeAsra, Domination Labs and more. We have also onboarded renowned tax experts, accounting specialists, and marketing gurus to help us make short online courses in video format for easy consumption and learning.

Anybody can enroll in a mojoVersity course for Free and finish a course in under 60 minutes. Each course is a compilation of 5–10-minute videos. To assess the knowledge, you can take a short multiple-choice quiz and unlock a certificate that you can then download and even print!

Currently, we have two courses live on the platform and are looking to add more. Since Legal norms happen to be among the top 3 challenges for a business, we decided to launch a basic course on compliance for starters.

The format of the courses is super engaging and we already have more than 300 sign-ups on the platform.

A Short backstory of mojoVersity, as told by our CEO and Co-founder, Sampad Swain on Twitter:

mojoVersity has seen tremendous traction in just a month. There are more than 300 businesses enrolled in the platform who have watched over 70 hours of mojoVersity lectures.
