The advertising industry in India has emerged from being a small-scale business to a full-fledged industry.

Pegged at $8.76 billion in 2018, the industry is estimated to grow with a CAGR of 10.62 percent till 2021, to reach a market size of $12.06 billion. Spotting this potential, several companies took birth in quick time to claim a portion of the pie in the flourishing market. While these companies lacked the understanding of the industry and dived into things without a proper plan, Resource Media Management entered the realm to offer tailor-made advertising services to enhance your audience outreach and boost your visibility. As a prominent advertising agency, it provides creative and effective marketing services with an extra edge. The agency creates brand awareness for companies to achieve maximum results and better engagement.

JayeshDhanani and MafatSiroya joined him as the company's Managing Partners and they collectively edged towards success in the form of Resources Media Management. Under their esteemed leadership, the agency which started in 2014 with just one person today has grown by leaps and bounds to 15 members team who completed 350+ projects with each project having its uniqueness and added 150+ clients. "Being Gujarati, entrepreneurship is in my blood. Advertising is fascinating because of the competition it sparks. Therefore, starting an advertising company was my dream since college days. In the early stage of my career, I was lucky to work with some of the bigwigs in the media industry. Working for 14 years with prominent Media companies in advertising has taught me discipline and work ethic, which are a crucial part of being successful in my career," says Darshak.

The Working Process
Being an advertising and branding agency, Resource Media Management's core emphasis always revolves around customer-centric engagement. To set the right path of research, the initial phase of project execution is to have a crystal-clear understanding of requirements from the clients. The process continues with the team doing brainstorming to identify every possible way for a brand's outreach and visibility. The agency endeavors the most crucial phase ­ execution to get going with the advertising and team coordination. And finally, the core emphasis is narrowed to client satisfaction and their happiness, which is the company's biggest achievement.

Addressing Challenges as Masked Opportunities
Akin to startups in every vertical, Resources Media Management too faced huge manpower crunch. As a policy of the organization, Darshak recruits young talents who are filled with passion, energy, and has an inclination towards learning new things. Thus, the average age is around 28 years. In any relation-ship, transparency is considered to be the key to trust. And trust is the key to not only build a robust relationship but also maintain them. The company's proven mettle lies in maintaining transparency in all its dealings with its esteemed clients. The journey so far for the agency has been incredible. When it comes to advertising, change is the name of the game. Compared to last year, this year, there have been challenges in the market. Thus, to keep up with the dynamic industry, the company has identified different segments that are market-ready to generate revenue. Darshak believes that if one segment is not doing well as an
organization, then he and his team identify other segments that are booming, therefore, shifting their focus to those segments.

In the financial sector, Resources Media Management is focusing on raw advertising. "Today, bank notices are on the rise due to Deforge. We saw there are opportunities where a lot of NPS going around, therefore we entered into this segment. We have been working on this segment, which is helping us maintain our revenue flow. Currently, our challenge is to maintain what we did last year, so we aren't thinking about the growth this year. If we can maintain the revenues that we generated last year, then we will consider ourselves to be successfully placed in the market," he adds. At present, the agency does a lot of noticing publications for some of India's leading banks including Bank of Baroda, IDBI Bank, and more. The agency for the first time this year also started doing television ads.
