C Com Digital - User Acquisition
Getting the first few customers is quite a task for any startup, and so was it for C Com Digital. Chandan managed to rope in the initial customers by leveraging the contacts of his family-run offset printing business.
We have a family offset printing business which was looked after by my father and brother. I started contacting the network of clients, suppliers, associates for their requirements, and getting business slowly.
Thereafter, C Com Digital partnered with 30 advertising agencies to get more work. When C Com Digital was established, advertising agencies could not provide technology services such as website development, SEO and social media. Due to such a gap in the then existing market, C Com Digital ultimately became their preferred partners to provide technology solutions which helped C Com in expansion of its network.

Initially, C Com Digital had to face a few challenges concerning creating their mark and distinguishing themselves from their competitors. Mainly since 2007, digital agencies began flourishing. That was the period when SEO agencies were on the rise, along with SMO agencies with Google and Facebook popularizing advertisements on their platform. Nevertheless, C Com Digital was successful in creating a niche in the market due to their background in core technology, unlike others. This further allowed them to embrace all the technological and marketing shifts that were occurring in the industry.
The demand started growing in the digital industry, and at the same time, the visionaries from the mainline media understood the importance of the digital agencies.
