TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF?

My name is Anchit Agarwal and I am 24 y/o from Indore, India. I am current the founder and CEO at Infodal.com and a senior SAP Commodity Risk Management consultant. I completed my Undergraduate degree in management studies from Mumbai University and secured rank 2 in college. I have over 5 years of experience in IT sector. I have implemented SAP Oil & Gas for 2 Oil shipping giants In Dubai and Saudi Arabia, SAP Commodity pricing engine in world’s largest nickel trading company Nornickel. It was just another day I was leaving for office and I thought to learn SAP Fico module. So I contacted one company and long story short I found my manager Akansha who was providing training. The training was going a bit tough since the trainer she arranged were not coming on time so, I asked her the problem and tried to give solution which ultimately worked. So, I have this curiosity how much that business earns whenever I come across some business, So while talking about her work, I started asking her the turnovers, sales and profits. I was surprised to know that my passion of teaching can lead me to good side hustle. Hence I offered a position on Akansha and we formed Infodal with an aim to train, support and certify working professionals and college students. Currently I am working with my team of experts for growing my company Infodal.com.
I have been awarded as the Trainer and Knowledge transfer champion in my company earlier, also I won the fashion show in my college time which gave me real confidence to face people in real life. Talking about my strengths, I have a very good negotiation skills, problem solving skills and Leadership skills.
My hobby is to play badminton and Football sports wise and best hobby I would say is to drive alone while listening to music. My goal is to make Infodal a Unicorn in next 2 years.

IF YOU COULD GO BACK IN TIME A YEAR OR TWO, WHAT PIECE OF ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE YOURSELF?

 
If could go back in time a year or two, I would advice myself two things, 1st to learn coding since that is the part that currently stands as a barrier to me and 2nd is to be patient while working with team since they are also overloaded when it comes to a bootstrap startup.

WHAT PROBLEM DOES YOUR BUSINESS SOLVE?

Infodal solves the problem of students/professionals who are looking for skill based learning but do not have time to go to any institute everyday(offline) and foreign students/professionals looking forward to enhance their skills at affordable price.

WHAT IS THE INSPIRATION BEHIND YOUR BUSINESS?

 
My inspiration behind this business were those students who were sitting at home in time of COVID-19, and were interested in learning online and upskill themselves.

WHAT IS YOUR MAGIC SAUCE?

Our magic sauces are-
1)That we provide online training with guaranteed placements/internships.
2)We have been providing training for very niche modules for which training is not easily available in the market
3)We also provide on demand courses, where even though the course is not listed on the website and student demands it, we arrange the trainer and provide the needful to the student.

WHAT IS THE PLAN FOR THE NEXT 5 YEARS? WHAT DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE?

In next five I plan to grow my team size to 1000. I want to see myself building 2nd unicorn. My vision is to work in that domain which can benefit and contribute to the IT industry.

WHAT IS THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE YOU’VE FACED SO FAR?

My biggest challenge that I have faced is to handle emotions of the people close to me and the employees since working two places leaves you with no time.

HOW DO PEOPLE GET INVOLVED/BUY INTO YOUR VISION?

I advice anyone who wants to get involved in my vision can learn a skill and teach a skill. This way we contribute and benefit the youth/professionals/aspirants of this society.
