I always been a business motivated person. When I was a teenager, I tried different small business ventures like magazine club, selling homemade paperbags, detergent soap salesman and much more. I feel that it is in my gene to be an entrepreneur because all my family people are in business. After coming to USA, I first started a small gift delivery business from US to India on the web during holiday times and it was an immedaite success. But I wasn’t able to proceed because lack of support in India.
 
I tried Food Catering business for a bit and was able to do just couple of contracts. It didn’t work out as I expected. Then I decide to go and start something which I know very well in my current field. So I registered my first legal business in Dec 2004, a freelance web development company  named igurus.net.  It has been 6 years and today I getting few projects a month in mid range price tag and hoping to do more web application projects in the near future. If you need a business or personal website, don’t hesitate to contact me at info@igurus.net. Happy to share my thoughts or help if needed.
 
I also tried vending machine business and able to successfully do the business for 1 and half year with reasonable profit. I sold the business for 50% profit and got out without any loss.  I tried to do some importing of rice and spices from India in 2008 but couldn’t able to percieve on that business idea.

Texas Realtor
 
I got my Realtor license in Mar 2011 and I am happy to say that I am a Proud Texas Realtor. With my real estate investor experience since 2007, I plan to help out folks who plan buy new or resale home by finding a great deal to meet their criteria and provide them with free analysis on their financial position if they needed. Another important focus will be towards helping people who want to start investing in real estate as part timers to add some cash flow to their portfolio or get more return for their money. If you need help in buying/selling home for you or for investing, visit my personal realtor website to contact me. I even pitch in 2-3% of my commission depending on the transaction towards your closing.
