We had the good fortune of connecting with Rajat Sehgal and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Rajat, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I was looking for a job right after high school in 2005 and My friend got me a job in a cell phone store in NorthLake Mall. Ever since than I have worked in every mall of Atlanta. since i have worked in the cell phone industry for so long I knew everything about it. When i saw the shift in the industry in mid 2011-2012 I decided to quit my job and learn to do repairs and than I leased out a same store that I worked in for past 5 years. I started my store in April 2012 and everything i knew about cell phone industry I was able to implement into one store giving customer one stop shop for everything they need for their cell phone needs.
Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
My business is a one stop shop for all cell phone needs. from phone cases to paying bills to buying phones and repairing devices we can do it all. It was never easy it’s all about adapting to new things that comes along with change. you have to be ready and prepared to learn something new at every step. Business isn’t always about money I think its more about people and community. I still have customer comes in and tell me that I have grown up and they still remember me when I was 17. I have build relationship and trust all these years and I am really proud of that.
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
There is so much to do in Atlanta. Some of the more recognized locations would be stone mountain, The Zoo, and coca cola factory. take a walk in the centennial park or get a burger from little five points. Stone mountain has hiking trails along with events specially around the holidays its a beautiful site! but other than that we have the best food joints including some good tasting indian restaurants in decatur.
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
My parents and wife have been my biggest support. There moral support has played a huge role in my success. My wife has always been by my side and encouraged me to execute all my business ideas and plans.
