We founded 5xSME to assist Small & Medium-Sized Businesses in their digital growth. Our team, with years of experience across various multinational companies like Microsoft and Toyota, as well as local resorts and restaurants, noticed a significant gap. Owners of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) often lack the necessary skills and struggle to find talented individuals in the market.

Our experience with multinational corporations taught us the value of systems, experimentation, and investing in the right tools. Conversely, SMEs often nurture these elements, as well as the skill and time required to grow their businesses.

We foresee the Indian markets evolving. Soon, SMEs might struggle to acquire talent or skills as large corporations offer high salary packages and promising career growth, thereby attracting skilled individuals. The gig economy is also becoming an increasingly attractive option for many, offering better compensation than what most SMEs can provide. 5xSME team has realised that talent, tools, skills, and expertise will be in shorter supply than ever before. Our solution is straightforward - build a lean firm capable of addressing fundamental problems for SMEs in the following areas:

  • Digital Marketing: We have spent over 12 Lakhs in Ads Spend (Until Now)

  • Digital Sales: Closed 6 Crore in Digital Sales

  • Technology (SAAS only): Implemented and worked with Over 50 High-Grade Tools.

  • Business Consulting: Helped and Currently Helping 10 Firms with Business Problems.

  • Training & Advisory: Design Effective and Engaging Training Content

Our team and advisors are operating across multiple organisations, domains, and sectors. Over the past three months, the 5xSME team has worked with an HR firm, a hotel, a D2C brand, an interior design firm, and an NGO. We provide these SMEs with the opportunity to prepare for their next growth stage by implementing our solutions and sharing our expertise.

5xSME is fully self-funded by the core team and operates remotely, providing high flexibility, creative freedom, and a cost-effective model.

Our expertise has led to the following results:

Resort Business: Achieved 5x revenue growth in three years.

Hotel Business: Reached six-month revenue goal within two months of opening.

D2C Brand: Reached 100x more potential customers in the first month of launch.

HR Firm: Assisting in doubling their revenue without doubling the team (Process ongoing).
