Spearheading the Organic Product Market

Overcoming Challenges During the Pandemic
With the emergence of the global pandemic, Kama Ayurveda, amongst other brands had to revaluate existing rules and protocols. In the wake of a complete lockdown of e-commerce and brick-and-mortar stores, the company studied the situation at hand and used the time to introduce simple ayurvedic rituals that can be practiced every day. It shared this information with its clients via social media.
As the company’s website restarted, it endeavoured to move majority of the communication online, and rerouted consumers to the website, as much as possible. To facilitate this, an IVR number and online beauty consultations were some of the additional services that Kama Ayurveda introduced. Through this feature, the company planned to elevate its brand experience.
With retail shops reopening, the company was well prepared, accounting for new ways in which the consumers can experience the brands. Constantly monitoring the journey, it ensured maintenance of social distancing, mandatory masks always, minimal contact, and online modes of payments, to make shopping of products hassle free.
During the first leg of the pandemic, Kama Ayurveda constantly monitored and adapted to changing rules and regulations.
Delivering Unadulterated Customer Experiences
Kama Ayurveda pioneers in producing ayurvedic beauty products of the finest quality across skin, hair, and body categories. The formulations are made using recipes from vedas. These unadulterated, time tested products effectively address beauty concerns, without any side effects.
The long-term effects of chemical infused products are unknown in comparison. Using natural ingredients, Kama Ayurveda takes pride in positioning itself as an authentic ayurvedic beauty brand.
The company’s beauty treatments do not undergo any form of animal testing. It has always been very transparent with the purity of all its products. Furthermore, Kama Ayurveda regularly conducts clinical trials on its key products to prove efficacy.
Kama Ayurveda also has been honoured with recognition and international certifications from institutions including ECOCERT and PETA.
Future Perspective
Team Kama Ayurveda states, “With an increased number of consumers switching to natural alternatives, ayurvedic beauty has a long way to go. This is just the beginning”.
The company intends to establish itself as the biggest beauty brand in the years to come.
Advice for the Budding Entrepreneurs
Team Kama Ayurveda is of the opinion that the organic sector is a large space. Hence, the first thing budding entrepreneurs need to do is narrow down their focus and selection. Then, they should select an area and find the best quality of vendors to provide for the merchandise. Entrepreneurs must evaluate carefully, to identify the key benefit that their product offers to the consumer.
