Opportunity knocks your door only once in life, make sure to grab it.
Dipesh Soni has been in the hospitality industry for the past 15 years. He is the co-owner of a tours and travels company called “Ancient India Hospitality”, with offices in Rajasthan, Ahmedabad, and Delhi.
Dipesh was born and raised in Udaipur. He spent most of his childhood in the heart of Udaipur city.
Dipesh had started his career in 2010 from Ahmedabad under a mentor. Gradually, he learned marketing by visiting various places and meeting various people. His experience got him a promotion and soon he was handling the whole Gujarat division. After spending seven years with that company, Dipesh switched to ‘Zenia Hotels’ which has three properties in Udaipur. He did a good job promoting and marketing the hotels. But due to COVID, the company was closed and he started his own venture. His company is predominantly a hospitality marketing company, which has properties all across Rajasthan.
Dipesh says that if anyone wants to come to the field of hospitality marketing, they should be experts in communicating and convincing people.
Dipesh considers his mentor and businessman, Mr. Neeraj Shrimaal to be his role model. Dipesh says that he has learned so much from him and the most attractive quality of his personality is his decision-making ability. He also admires Mr. Narendra Gurjar and Mr. Mujeeb Sheikh, whom he continues to take advice from.
During COVID, Dipesh bought his own house and also started his own company, so all in all, the pandemic period proved to be good for Dipesh.
According to Dipesh, there are no born leaders, but consistent efforts and hardwork can establish you as a leader.
Given a chance to revisit his past, Dipesh would like to relive the period from 2012 to 2014, when he and friends travelled a lot.
