Are you ready for marriage?

Now not marrying is not an option in India,  so be sure on that one day you have to marry if you are not anti social. But then when is the right time and more importantly when am i Ready is the correct question?
The amount of stress and pain i took in deciding it i dont want anyone of you take it, thats why i decided in my own small way if i can be of any help to anybody on this earth, then me suffering such a problem will be worth it.'
Litarally i took up every stupid quiz that is there on internet to find out if i am ready for marriage which of course dint help. If you think of it this doubt come when we are not sure of the person we are going to get married. I am a very practical person, though i was deeply and madly in love with this guy i was not sure if this love will remain.

All the worlds answers can be found within you that is what i concluded. There is a simple way to take a decision. In this system you have to use your Head and your Heart both that will only give birth to a smart decision.

Ask your Head
  • Am i meeting the Real need
  • Am i informing myself of the options
  • Am i thinking it through
Ask your Heart
  • Does my decision show i am honest to myself
  • Does it show i trust my intution
  • Does it show that i deserve the best

Social Media and Display Advertising in Information Age

Radio took 38 years to have 50 million Users, TV took 13 years, Internet took 4 years, Ipod 3years for 50 million and Facebook took just 9 months for 100 million Users which is currently having more that 750 million active users.

Social Media and the emergence of latest technologies and applications are causing incredible growth opportunities, And are bringing in Big shift in Thinking and operating of the businesses.
We have crossed Industrial Age and just at the beginning of the Information Age. What this means is - Before there was a time, when we had some exclusive product and people have to get adjusted with the technology but not anymore, now products and technologies are getting adjusted according to the User. We are at the beginning of the User-focused revolution.

A person when he comes online and searches for something, he is flooded with information from everywhere. And all this information can also be presented to the person as an online Advertisement. Its because today there are millions of service and product provider who are targeting the right User. So the challenge is to make the right product meet the right User.

People are bombarded by online Ads but they don't connect with most of these Ads in a meaningful way. Google is investing significantly to help improve Display Advertising for publishers, advertiser and user, because the next trend will be for people to have fewer but better ads

This can be good news for publishers as well as bad news. If your product is right you'll be king else it will be thrown out of the market in a fraction of seconds.
King can become pauper & a pauper can become king with lightening speed that's the power of information age.


According to Google, display advertising will grow to $200 billion industry.
Display ads provide incredible platform to engage excite & inspire. If we as marketers, publishers & technology providers can deliver experiences that can delight the user, we can take this industry to new heights.
"The key factor behind all this is keep yours focus on the user"
