Ayush Bansal Executive Director, BNI Vapi

Every company comes to a point where it is functioning but not thriving. This is just like what often happens with human beings. We go to shrinks, friends, psychiatrists, family, and we introspect to try and find out what is wrong with us. In the same way, we need to do the same for our companies. It is true that we build a business with our own two hands. But only a handful of us are fortunate to let go of the possessiveness, or to stay away from the tendency to micro-manage. Therefore, both our company and our personal lives get affected. This is exactly where The Propel Way fits in. While many business growth mentors concentrate on working with the giants and ignore SMEs, Propel is different. Hardik and Fowzia are brilliant at what they do, and it reflects in their clients’ success stories. Hardik is passionate about what he does, and this book is a brilliant way to showcase his committed approach. It is the perfect guide to what an entrepreneur should, or should not do. After reading this book, you are definitely going to question yourself, your work, and methods. This book is only going to help you achieve better. And yes, who wouldn’t want to take-off on a three-month holiday while your business continues to run without you? Happy Reading

Chaitaly Mehta Director, EKF GLOBAL Logistics Private Limited (formerly Express Kargo Forwarders Pvt Ltd)

Efficiency is the most valuable commodity today, and this book will help you see your business through that lens. Entrepreneurs today are pulled in a hundred different directions.

Nityanand (Nitz) Shetty Founder, CEO, and Managing Director, Essen Vision Software Private Limited.

The author depicts scenarios in the book that are commonly experienced by entrepreneurs across industries and countries. These analyses, therefore, make The Propel Way universally relatable. An absolute must read for both seasoned and new entrepreneurs.
