When and how did you start?

“MyChores was Founded in October 2014 and launched services on 8th of March 2015 (Women’s day), we are about 3.5 years old. We are based out of Mumbai”, Says Mr.
Andrew. V, Founder and Ceo of MyChores.


How did you come up with the idea? Your inspirational moment?

The genesis of the idea – it all started in 2011 when I had a medical emergency at home when my wife had to be operated for a brain tumor and while she was recuperating we wanted to hire a maid to cook and care for my very young kids. I struggled hard with this as i tried every source to hire a good maid but could not. I finally called just dial to find some agencies listed with them and tried calling them as well, as it turned out none of them could deliver and the interactions with these agency personnel did not give me any confidence. This resulted in me taking long leave from my organisation and caring for the kids and my wife. This experience prompted me the think in the direction of organizing the Domestic Help Segment.

About funding, plans for growth

We are bootstrapped now. We Will be raising close to 5 crores through private placement of shares to HNI by this year end.

Challenges and Opportunities/ Marketing Strategies.

  •  The market is emerging and getting developed well. The strategy is to establish ourselves as a hyper local service provider for all services needed inside the home as more and more customers are realizing that there are online platforms which are run professionally to help them hire a domestic help hassle free & securely
  • The biggest challenge is to reach and mobilize the workers, as most of them don’t use the online tools like we do. It would take some more time for them to get used to the idea of reaching out to a platform to find jobs. Once they get used to the idea ,it will snowball and we will see the hockey stick adaptation that we envision.

Future plans and funding.

We plan for an IPO by 2023 and expect to be present in top 10 cities in India.

A quote on the journey, or dealing with the challenge or any inspiring moment.

Keeping it simple, learn from own and others experiences/mistakes and most importantly common sense approach to solve problems.
