After more than two decades in the corporate world, Venkatesh realized something that changed his perspective forever — the business world is full of passionate entrepreneurs, hardworking shop owners, and dedicated professionals who often go unseen. Despite their talent and effort, many small and medium businesses struggle to reach the customers they deserve.
That realization planted the seed for Onebajaar.com, a digital business directory built to make every business visible.
The Journey from Corporate to Entrepreneur
For over 20 years, Venkatesh worked across various corporate roles, learning the ins and outs of business management, strategy, and growth. The corporate world taught him structure, efficiency, and discipline — but it also showed him a side of business that often gets overlooked: the human side.
He noticed that while big brands have teams and budgets to market themselves, local and small businesses rely mostly on word-of-mouth. They have strong offerings but limited digital presence. In today’s digital-first world, that lack of visibility means missed opportunities.
“I met so many brilliant entrepreneurs who were doing everything right — except being found online,” Venkatesh recalls. “That’s when I knew I wanted to create something that helped them be seen and grow.”
The Birth of Onebajaar.com
Founded just five months ago, Onebajaar.com is Venkatesh’s answer to this problem — a platform where every business, no matter its size or stage, can list and promote itself easily
The idea is simple:
Visibility shouldn’t depend on how much you can spend. It should depend on what you can offer.”
With Onebajaar.com, any business can create a profile, showcase products and services, and connect with potential customers. From local shops and freelancers to startups and service providers — everyone gets a space to shine.
A Platform with Purpose
Onebajaar.com isn’t just a business directory. It’s a community of entrepreneurs built on trust, opportunity, and visibility. Venkatesh’s vision is to make it the go-to space where people can discover reliable businesses and where business owners can grow their audience.
His corporate experience taught him the importance of efficiency and customer trust, and he’s now channeling those lessons into Onebajaar.com. The platform is designed to be simple, transparent, and user-friendly — so that even those new to digital tools can benefit.
The Vision Ahead
Venkatesh believes that this is just the beginning. His dream is to see Onebajaar.com become a household name — a trusted space that bridges the gap between businesses and their customers.
He envisions expanding the platform with new features, business insights, and tools that help entrepreneurs manage and promote their ventures better.
“Every business has a story. Some start with dreams, some with necessity, and some with pure passion. But all deserve to be seen. Onebajaar.com is about giving those stories a place to shine.”
A Message from the Founder
Leaving the comfort of a corporate job wasn’t an easy decision. But for Venkatesh, it was the right one. “I wanted to build something that truly adds value to people’s lives. Every time a business owner tells me that Onebajaar.com helped them get discovered, that’s my success.”
Onebajaar.com stands as a symbol of his belief — that when businesses are seen, communities grow, and opportunities multiply.
Whether you’re a local entrepreneur or a small business owner, this platform is built for you — to help your story reach the world.
Because in Venkatesh’s words,
“It’s time every business is seen, valued, and celebrated.
