EO Series #16 - Brushing Up: The Story of a Pearly White Business - Shilpa Kane

  • Summary

  • Say hello to Shilpa, the heart and soul behind Apex Clinics Group, co-founded with her life partner, Ajoy. For the past seven years, they've been nurturing a space where dental care goes hand in hand with community warmth. 🤝 At Apex, it's all about offering comprehensive dental care—or as Shilpa likes to call it, "Community Friendly Dental Care." This isn't just a slogan; it's a family affair, with their young son playing a significant role in the clinic's day-to-day life. They're not just talking about community values; they're living them. Shilpa's journey to this point is both diverse and rich. Armed with an MBA and a degree in Microbiology, she has a solid background in marketing, with more than a decade of experience across various fields like Telecom and Airlines. This eclectic mix of knowledge and experience has shaped her into a leader who sees beyond the balance sheet. 📝 But here's what truly makes Shilpa stand out: she's more than just a successful entrepreneur. She's someone who believes in the power of kindness and community. In a world where business can often be about the 'survival of the fittest,' Shilpa chooses a path less traveled. She's proof that success can be achieved by putting people and values first, making her business a platform for fostering community connections rather than just chasing profits. 💰 In this episode, Shilpa and I discussed: 00:00 ▶️ Introduction 08:28 🌟 The challenges of finding your IKIGAI 12:17 🤔 Knowing the right time to start your business 16:12 👨‍👩‍👦 Working with your spouse and kids in business 27:49 🗣 How communication can make or break you 43:52 🤝 Having long standing employees and keeping them 52:19 👭 Why community is a part of her USP 1:02:12 🫣 Taking on the right level of risk 1:12:06 🤗 The best way to use an accountability group 1:40:44 💼 The consequences of wanting to grow the business and much much more!
