A 24-year-old entrepreneur <\/a>has caught the internet\u2019s attention after claiming he built a \u20b91 crore startup <\/a>in just 4 months after quitting his job<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\"UjjwalUjjwal is the co-founder of an automation platform called LinkPlease. (Instagram\/@heyujjwal)<\/p>\n

In a video shared on Instagram, Ujjwal, co-founder of an automation platform called LinkPlease, detailed how he identified a gap in the market and scaled his product rapidly. \u201cI’m 24, and I built a 1 crore business in just 4 months,\u201d he says in the clip. \u201c4 months ago, I quit my job to build LinkPlease, and today over 10,000 creators use it,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Explaining his journey, Ujjwal broke it down into 3 stages – finding the gap, building the solution, and scaling the product. He shared that the idea stemmed from a recurring problem faced by content creators. \u201cCreators were posting great content but losing growth because they couldn’t handle the DMs,\u201d he said, calling it a \u201cmassive market gap.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that the team focused on building a low-cost automation engine and initially launched a free version to gather user feedback. \u201cWe went all-in and our goal was simple. Build the most efficient automation engine at the lowest cost. We launched V1, made it free for all the creators, and improved everything based on real feedback,\u201d he said, noting that several creators began adopting the platform early on.<\/p>\n

With growing traction, Ujjwal said the team used real user data to refine the product. \u201cToday, more than 10,000 creators grow on autopilot with LinkPlease,\u201d he claimed. \u201cWe’re not stopping here. We’re building LinkPlease into the best automation platform in the world. And the next milestone is simple: from 1 crore to 10 crore,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

In the caption accompanying the post, Ujjwal emphasised execution over resources. \u201cBuilt a 1 crore startup in 4 months without funding, without a team, just ruthless execution. Creators had a real problem, we solved it fast, and the market rewarded us. This is just the beginning,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

How did social media react?<\/p>\n

The post has since drawn mixed reactions online. While many users praised the hustle and encouraged him to keep going, others offered suggestions for growth.<\/p>\n

One user wrote, \u201cI genuinely appreciate the effort you\u2019ve put in and what you\u2019ve built, but you definitely need to work on SEO to get more organic traffic and users. You could also consider paid influencer collaborations, since the cost isn\u2019t a differentiating factor and people tend to try Superprofile by default. Apart from this, adding X and LinkedIn automations would fill a very big gap in the market.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEntrepreneurship isn\u2019t easy , but you\u2019re crushing it , keep going!!\u201d commented another.<\/p>\n

\u201cExecution beats everything. Solving a real problem fast always gets noticed. Excited to see the 10 crore milestone!\u201d wrote a third user.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A 24-year-old entrepreneur has caught the internet\u2019s attention after claiming he built a \u20b91 crore startup in just…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":388710,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[201247,201248,138,37614,336,111,139,69,201249,85827],"class_list":{"0":"post-388709","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entrepreneurship","8":"tag-1-crore-startup","9":"tag-automation-platform","10":"tag-business","11":"tag-content-creators","12":"tag-entrepreneurship","13":"tag-new-zealand","14":"tag-newzealand","15":"tag-nz","16":"tag-organic-traffic","17":"tag-social-media-reactions"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/388709","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=388709"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/388709\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/388710"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=388709"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=388709"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=388709"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
