Sunny – the first step for u maybe will be to meet a few customers and take their feedback, inputs, what they need etc. Then you can start working on your product/service etc. and if you are lucky, then you may easily get your first customer. With this you can look at further plunge full time and grow rapidly, expand team, do more marketing, take office, do legal registrations etc. Remember, Har ek customer zarooree hota hai!
Best wishes,
