We have been addicted to working soo much day in day out for the past 2 Years that Upon the Arrival of these corona virus Pandemic, we became really bored with no Work. And we thought of writing our Journey of Techglares in Twitter and the Ups and Downs in our Journey as it might inspire at least some People.
Note : If you find this article useful and if you like it, Follow it or else you can ignore. Not a Problem at All.
First we started as a Technology Website, and then we turned it into a Daily Deals Handle on Twitter.
We are proud to say that we are one of the Very First and Foremost Handles in India on that started tweeting deals on Twitter. It was a Very Difficult and Struggling journey in the Start. When we used to tweet nobody used to Respond or we can say that we have no audience on Twitter. We are not Celebrities or Super Stars in Cinema, Cricket, Politics that Just after starting a Twitter handle people will roll red carpet for us.
Pre Production :
So, we decided that only way we could be successful is Sheer Hardwork every single day. And We prepared a Plan for almost an Year where we have to tweet deals Each and Every Day no Matter what may Come. There might be days when ur internet connection won’t work or u will fall sick or you have some other commitments. But we are pretty clear that all this Things should not stop us. And The second important thing is Irrespective of Results you should do this. At the End of the one Year there might be Zero improvement in ur followers or you might fail miserably but we should do this for an Year at Any Cost.
Jumping into Actual Work :
And then we slowly started Tweeting Deals and Coupons on Twitter. As Expected, there was not much response on Twitter in the Start. Days passed and months passed and there was this Hardisk Loot for Rs.500 probably during June of 2018 that made us Famous All over India and People Started recognised that there is a Twitter Handle exclusively for Deals and started Following us.
And from that Point, there is no looking back. People started following us, people started Loving us and now we are at 38K Followers.
Now, This is the Journey of Techglare Deals on Twitter that most of the People know and what most of the People don’t know is the Struggle and what went behind making Techglare Deals a Successful Handle.
Keep Reading and You might have Experienced similar things in your Life.
- Troll and Abuse :
Before start of the Techglare Deals we discussed and listed out what and All Struggles we might face in this Journey.There is a Thin line between Troll and Abuse. Troll is nothing but people replying to tweets in a Funny and Comical Way. Abuse is something where people use Foul Language to bring your Morale Down.
And We were pretty much sure that there will be lot of Abuse on Twitter for No Reason.
So, Here comes decisions that we made :
1. People will abuse you for No Reason. Can you withstand that ? “Yes”
2. People will tell that you favour only a Specific Gender. Can you withstand that ? “Yes”
3. If you block a Profile, People will create a New Fake Profile and will abuse you more that 100 times that they were previously Abusing. Can you bear that ? “Yes”
There are some specific challenges that we expected will surely come and we were mentally Ready for them.
Now let’s see what will make people to Abuse on Twitter :
The Most foremost reason is “Anonymity”. Surely Anonymity is a “Blessing in Disguise” on Twitter. People will create a Twitter Profile and use some Fake DP and Fake Email address and they will start abusing for No Reason and Sometimes a Reason.
The Reason might be the person doesn’t like your Views on a Specific Topic or Person and will start abusing your Mother,Father and Sometimes your Great Grand Mother and Great Grand Father tooo.
Another most important reason is “Jealousy”. Jealousy is a Inborn trait of every human being and it is much more common and Evident in India. The Problem is not becoming Jealous but what you are achieving out of Jealousy. If you are jealous of Someone, put an Effort in your Life and Achieve things and Show the World what you are capable of.
But what most people do is to just Sit, Create a Fake Handle and abuse people who are Successful.
So, the Best way to handle is to Just Laugh When someone abuse you as you have done nothing wrong and there is no need for you to worry much. Keep Doing ur Hardwork and when you reach heights these abusers will be lost in the Crowd without any identity.
Most of these abusers will be Introverts who hide behind these Fake Profiles and do abusing. They just can’t abuse keeping their Original Pics as DPs.
Afterall, Life will be Very Boring When everyone likes You.There must be and There should be some people who hate you. Then Only your life will be interesting.
2. Constant Effort :
Constant Effort is an important key to Success. Many people start off things but leave it after few Days when there is no results. But, that should not be the case. Plan for a Specific Time Frame, Give your constant Efforts.
And the Most Important thing is change your Strategies. When a Strategy is not working, Change the Strategy during this process of your Constant Efforts and Ultimately you will get Success.
3. Marketing :
Most of the People say “Techglares” is a Pro in Marketing, their marketing Strategies are superb and bla bla. But the Fact is that we don’t have any Professionals MBAs or any marketing Guys in our Team. All the Marketing that we do is out of Heart. We will try to imbibe Humor in our Marketing and most of the time it works.
So, whatever work u do, you should Project it in a genuine way and do right kind of Marketing.
4. Staying Grounded and Humble :
Your Determination when you have Nothing.
Your Attitude when you have Everything.
Can we stay Grounded and Humble even after getting thousands of Followers?
The Answer is Yes.
Even now, we try to reply as much Tweets and DMs as we get. But, still we miss some of them and We are working on it on how to address each and Every query from our followers.
This Staying Humble and Grounded thing Comes with a Disclaimer. You should Stay Humble and Grounded sometimes and you should be ready to ready to Kick Asses Sometimes.
5. The Pseudo Intellectuals:
This is one more Category of Ppl that you see on Twitter and in Real Life Too. These people project themselves as Intellectuals and they have a opinion on anything and Everything that happens on Twitter. And One more important thing is These people oppose things that are widely accepted by World and They will have a Theory that supports it. Well, it’s their Point of View and We don’t have any right to deny it.
We should be very careful with these kind of people as Most of the times they will divert you to wrong paths but sometimes you will get some very good information from them. So, Listen to all the Things That Pseudo intellectuals say and implement it if and only if you find it useful.
6. The World of Positivity:
Now that All the Negative Things are over, let’s see the Positive Side. To balance all these negative things, there will be Be People who support you unconditionally. There will be specific set of People who support you unconditionally no matter what. Remember “You should not lose this People at Any Cost”. Luckily, we have tons of people on Twitter who comes in this Category. Thanks to all of You Guys.
In Real Life Too, you will have a Set of People May be your Best Friend, or your Wife or Girl Friend or Boy Friend who support you unconditionally. Never Ever leave them.
Finally, just want to end this article with this beautiful lines said by Actor Vijay in his speech during “Master Audio Launch”.

This Roughly Translates to All are lives are like a River. There will be people who welcome the River with flowers. River will be Flowing calmly. There will be people(People who hate you) Who will throw stones in the river. River will be Flowing calmly.
