Running a small business in India comes with its own set of challenges. You may have excellent skills, unique products, or years of experience, but when it comes to taking your shop online, the hurdles can feel overwhelming—website building, GST filing, digital marketing, logos, payments, and endless technical terms.
This is where the Grass App (www.grasspps.com) steps in as a game-changer. It’s a platform created especially for small business owners and entrepreneurs who want to sell online but don’t have the budget or technical know-how. Grass provides free registration, creates a complete product page for your business, handles digital marketing, and even integrates technical support when required. The only cost you pay is a small service charge on sales, not huge upfront investments.
Let’s explore some real-life style examples of how Grass is helping Indian entrepreneurs thrive in the digital space.

Ramesh the Painter: Turning Dreams into Reality
Ramesh is a skilled painter from Lucknow. For years, he has been painting homes, but he always wanted to start his own paint shop business. Unfortunately, he couldn’t move forward because:
He didn’t have the initial investment for a physical shop.
He had no idea about GST filing.
He didn’t know where to go for logo design.
He had no understanding of digital marketing.
He wasn’t comfortable with technical terminology in paints like binders, thinners, emulsions, coverage, surface moisture etc.
Ramesh felt stuck—he had the skill, but no way to showcase it.
When Ramesh discovered the Grass App, everything changed. With free registration, he entered his business details. Grass created a professional product page for his paint-related services, complete with product descriptions, images, and even a logo. The Grass team took care of digital marketing, making sure his shop appeared in front of the right customers online.
For Ramesh, it felt like having a complete back-office team—without paying lakhs of rupees. Now he can sell paints, painting services, and even decorative wall solutions through Grass, while focusing on what he does best: his craft.

Meera’s Bamboo Creations: From Local to National
Meera, from Assam, makes beautiful bamboo products—handcrafted baskets, lamps, and eco-friendly furniture. She has been selling at local fairs and small exhibitions, but her sales volume remained low. People appreciated her work, but her products never reached larger markets.
Her challenges were:
No proper online presence.
Lack of knowledge in SEO and social media marketing.
Limited ability to create professional product photography and descriptions.
No experience in handling online transactions or delivery coordination.
Grass gave Meera the platform she needed. Once she registered and uploaded her product details, Grass created her store page with high-quality listings for each product. The marketing team promoted her bamboo items to eco-conscious buyers across India.
Now, Meera’s business is no longer limited to exhibitions—she receives online orders from different cities, and her sales volume has increased without her spending money on digital ads.
⸻
Rajesh’s Homemade Pickles: A Family Recipe Goes Online
Rajesh’s family in Gujarat has been making homemade pickles for generations. His products are delicious, but he never thought of selling them outside his community. He worried about packaging, customer trust, and how to set up an online store.
Grass helped him create a professional product page with product descriptions like “Authentic Gujarati Mango Pickle” and “Spicy Lemon Pickle.” The team guided him on minimum service cost per sale, packaging solutions, and even connected him with digital marketing strategies.
Today, Rajesh proudly sells his pickles online and earns a steady side income, all without investing upfront.

Priya’s Beauty Services: From Local Parlour to Digital Growth
Priya runs a small beauty parlour in Pune. While she had loyal local customers, she struggled to expand because:
She didn’t know how to advertise online.
She wasn’t comfortable creating a service booking website.
She didn’t understand pricing strategies for digital customers.
Grass created a service-based product page for Priya. Now customers can view her services, prices, and even make bookings online. The platform markets her parlour services to nearby users, giving her more visibility. With this support, Priya has been able to grow her client base without hiring expensive marketing agencies.

Baibhav the Chemical Consultant: Expertise Meets Opportunity
Baibhav is an individual consultant in the chemical sector. He has years of experience in paints, coatings, and industrial chemicals, and he wants to support multiple projects as an expert advisor. However, he faced challenges:
No platform to showcase his expertise to multiple clients.
Difficulty in reaching small paint companies and contractors who could benefit from his guidance.
Limited digital presence, which made it hard to get project-based opportunities.
Grass provided Baibhav with a professional profile where he could list his services, credentials, and areas of specialization. Each project inquiry now comes through a dedicated page, where clients can see his offerings and contact him directly. Grass also offers marketing support, helping Baibhav reach paint shops, contractors, and manufacturers who need expert consultancy.
Now Baibhav can manage multiple advisory projects without worrying about creating his own website or doing digital marketing. Grass essentially acts as a digital business partner for consultants and service experts as well.
