We have reached far. And Wide.
From non existing entity to $1.5 million sales runway annually.
All within 7 months of launch.
National media spoke about us.
International too
Of a startup changing an entire culture
Of a company forming a movement
Of a set of people entrusted with an extraordinary task
Helping Indian youth get privacy and comfort. A place where things can be talked out and mind and body can turn one.
BBC World News plugged too
They’ve honored us and our mission.
Yet the greatest honor comes from the team. The people. Two lone hustlers turned into 10 full time employees and 4 more part timers.
Awesome people. People selected with great care and attention. People who feel the problems with unmarried couples in India as their own.
We are now a reckoning force. A force of good. And our recent milestones speak for themselves:
- 15 people team
- Present in 15 cities
- Over 10,000 couples served
- 30% month to month growth
- New feature launch - Order a Cake + Multiple day hotel booking for couples
Is it getting easier than before? No it doesn’t
Rejections are our daily encounters. Many people have applauded on this initiative. But many still frown upon it.
Dating apps like Tinder, TrulyMadly, OkCupid. Comedians and social activists who swear they stand on the side of young Indians.
They’ve all rejected associations with StayUncle claiming they don’t want to have anything to do with a brand like ours.
That’s okay. We live on and move on. Surrounded by many awesome people who fight for the same cause makes every pain easier.
For those who love us - the family’s doors are open. We have several open job positionsand more to come. Tell your friends and reach out to us in case you rock at something we can utilize here at StayUncle.
Because couples need a room, not a judgement.
