π From Zero to 12,000+ Sign-Ups: The Journey of Majha Morya π
Starting a business is never easy, and building an online platform from scratch is even harder. When we launched Majha Morya in 2017, we had zero visitors, no brand recognition, and a challenging road ahead. But by 2024, we had crossed 12,000+ sign-ups β a milestone that reflects persistence, innovation, and a deep understanding of our audience. Hereβs how we made it happen. π
π 2017: The Year of Zero Visitors
Like any new venture, the early days of Majha Morya were filled with uncertainty. We had a vision β to create a dedicated platform for Ganesh Chaturthi products and festival shopping β but no one knew about us. With no website traffic to www.majhamorya.com and limited funds for marketing, we had to rely on organic strategies and grassroots efforts to spread the word.
π§ Challenges We Faced:
- No brand recognition π·οΈ
- Limited marketing budget π°
- Finding the right product-market fit π―
- Low customer trust in online religious product shopping ποΈ
ποΈ 2018β2020: Building the Foundation
To attract our first users, we focused on content marketing and community engagement. We launched a digital aarti book, began social media outreach, and started collaborating with religious communities and local event organizers.
We also introduced two mobile apps β π± Majhamorya E Store App and SooooperLink β to enhance user experience and make festival shopping more accessible. While retention was initially a struggle, these initiatives helped us gain early traction.
π Key Actions:
- Developed SEO-friendly content to attract organic traffic π
- Leveraged social media and influencer marketing π’
- Partnered with local Ganesh mandals and religious groups π
- Improved customer trust through testimonials and reviews β
π 2021β2022: Expanding Reach & Refining Strategy
By 2021, we had gathered a loyal customer base and started delivering Ganesh idols and festival essentials to Tier-1 cities. Our focus shifted to customer service, logistics optimization, and enhancing the online shopping experience.
We also noticed a shift in consumer behavior β customers wanted home delivery of religious items, reducing the hassle of shopping in crowded markets. This insight helped us refine our service offerings.
π Growth Strategies:
- Introduced pre-booking for Ganesh idols (starting June every year) π
- Optimized delivery logistics to ensure safe transportation π
- Expanded social media presence with targeted campaigns π²
- Partnered with eco-friendly idol makers to cater to rising sustainability demands π±
π 2023β2024: Scaling to 12,000+ Sign-Ups
By 2023, we had a strong digital presence, but we wanted to take it further. We invested in SEO, digital PR, and partnerships, ensuring that people searching for Ganesh idols and festival products would find us easily.
β What Worked:
- Improved website UX for smoother sign-ups and transactions π»
- Boosted local SEO & Google Business Profile optimization π
- Launched a survey to understand customer needs better π

The results were incredible β our sign-ups skyrocketed past 12,000 and our brand became a trusted name in the market. π
