Who
is an entrepreneur?
Someone who can dream, who has the
courage to start fresh, to take risks and capability to grow & succeed.
All these words resonate with the person
I am going to introduce now.

Rachna Parmar [“Sometimes, silence
connects in a way words never can!”]
“A professional content writer and an entrepreneur & co-owner of Tranquil Software Solutions. She is also a founder of RachnaSays a personal blog where she shares some part of her life.”
Rachna did Bsc in chemistry, followed by MBA from NMIMS. After which she worked in brand management for few years before taking a sabbatical to be with her kids.
What
is entrepreneurship?
Turning
a dream into a clear idea and converting the idea into a successful business.
What
was the dream?
The
dream was very hazy. It was born on an afternoon dipped in kids’ antics and a
need to be free. The dream started as Rachna’s personal blog Rachna Says. A
chronicle of her journey, bits and pieces scattered yet saved. Reserved and
preserved by her pen. It was a start to a long beautiful journey.
What
was the idea?
Pen
is mightier than tongue. Words are sharper than knives. Rachna’s pen gave way
to her foray in content writing. She was and she is a very successful content
writer with many national and international clients. But she did not stop at
that. Her penmanship and her marketing experience coupled with her husband’s
amazing conviction, confidence and ability gave birth to a unique idea. An idea
to break the barriers and to make technology accessible to everyone.
What
is the business?
Behind
every successful man is a strong woman. Lets us relook at this proverb. Success
goes hand in hand with strength, especially when chased with your other half.
Around
3 years back in March 2010 “Tranquil” was born as “Smart Solutions” a sole
proprietary. It was later converted into a company. It was formed with a
vision to provide affordable internet solutions that would make many lives
easier. Rachna is the Director of the company. She handles content writing,
Marketing and accounts including all liaisons for the company.
In
recognition of Tranquil's long term goals and in its ability to achieve them,
it was accepted as a Microsoft BizSpark Member.
It
is an organization dedicated in the endeavour of helping technology reach a
common person and to help him/her enhance the quality of his/her life. The
company mostly works with employees on contract basis. They employ people and
give them flexible options to work from home. They encourage stay at home
mothers and other professionals who prefer flexibility and work from home
option.
It
takes a lot of conviction and courage to convert one simple afternoon dream
into something this big.
Rachna
stands as an inspiration for all of us struggling OR may be not struggling in
our mundane lives, content or not content with our mundane lives, BUT with a
dream in our hearts. Her story inspires, her words encourage us to follow our
dreams, to shed inhibitions and to push our boundaries.
She
is one of the reasons I am blogging right now. I continue to dream because of
her and I know there are many more, especially women who look up to her.
She
may not be the face of any obvious social change but she is one of the women
who are leading subtle revolution in women empowerment.
She
has many facets and many achievements I would love to talk about all of it. She
is one of my inspirations. I have read almost everything she has written and if
I could, I would write endless chapters on her. But I can’t hence I delved in
some of her facets; some of the things that I think would describe her.
