Today we’d like to introduce you to Devanshi Padsala.
Hi Devanshi, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
My love for design and technology started when I was just in middle school. I stumbled upon HTML code and was immediately intrigued by the world of web design. From that moment on, I was hooked and started learning everything I could about web development and design. I even started creating websites as a hobby.
Fast forward to my post-college days, I had so many business ideas but starting my own brand studio, Gulabi Mango has always been my dream. My passion for helping businesses stand out through design and technology just couldn’t be ignored. I provide my clients with branding, website design, social media marketing, and print material services.
Since starting Gulabi Mango, I have had the privilege of traveling to different places, meeting new people, and making a real impact on my clients’ businesses. Each project brings new challenges and opportunities for growth, and I am constantly inspired by the creativity and passion of the entrepreneurs I work with.
Working with a variety of clients from different industries and backgrounds has allowed me to expand my knowledge and skills while also providing my clients with a unique brand experience. I take pride in creating beautiful, functional websites and building strong, lasting relationships with my clients. It’s truly a joy to bring my clients’ visions to life and play a small part in their success.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
I would say that starting my own business has not been a smooth road. There have been many struggles and challenges along the way. One of the biggest challenges I face is building a strong client base. Since its early days of my business, it is difficult to attract and retain clients. I have to put in a lot of effort to market my services and build a strong online presence. This has been very time-consuming and costly process, but it is necessary to establish my business. Another challenge that I face is balancing work and personal life. As a business owner, it’s easy to get caught up in the day-to-day tasks and responsibilities of running a business. It is difficult for me to find a balance between work and personal life, and I have to make sure that I set clear boundaries and make time for hobbies, exercise, and spending time with loved ones.
As you know, we’re big fans of Gulabi Mango. For our readers who might not be as familiar, what can you tell them about the brand?
My work as a brand and web designer includes creating unique and effective branding solutions for businesses through website design, social media marketing, and print materials. I specialize in creating visually pleasing and user-friendly websites that effectively communicate a brand’s message and values. I am known for my ability to create visually stunning designs that are also functional and user-friendly.
I am most proud of the work I have done for my clients and the positive impact it has had on their businesses. I have seen firsthand how a strong brand and online presence can help businesses stand out in their industry, increase website traffic, and drive conversions. I am also proud of the personal and professional growth I have experienced as a business owner.
What sets me apart from others is my holistic approach to design. I don’t just focus on creating a visually pleasing design but also take into consideration the user experience, functionality, and the goals of the brand. I also take the time to understand my clients’ businesses, target markets, and goals in order to create a unique and effective solution that will help them stand out.
I am also passionate about design, and I am dedicated to creating solutions that will help my clients succeed. I am committed to delivering high-quality work and building long-term relationships with my clients. I strive to be a trusted partner, not just a vendor, in helping my clients to achieve their branding and design goals.
Networking and finding a mentor can have such a positive impact on one’s life and career. Any advice?

Attending industry events and conferences is another great way to meet other professionals and learn about the latest trends and developments in your field. Additionally, you can reach out to your current network and ask for introductions to people who may be able to help you achieve your goals. It’s also important to be proactive in seeking out mentors and networking opportunities, don’t wait for opportunities to come to you, take the initiative to make connections and build relationships that can help you grow and succeed in your industry.
