What do Hebi Naturals do and what is the aim of Hebi Naturals?
Hebi Naturals is a startup that aims to improve the bad effect on our environment and to spread more green. They began with homemade compost and then turned the same into a business idea. The team was inspired by the Dig Pit method which they learned from their economics subject. To reduce the time and to provide a better product they used specialized bucket methods and earthen pots to make their pots. The main aim of Hebi Naturals is to protect the environment and make it greener.
Compost made by the Team is a multipurpose compost as they have used reverse sand instead of normal sand. They have added many other useful compounds to stand out their product in the highly competitive market. The team claims that if we add their compost to any of the plants then that plant will get all the required nutrients for its proper and efficient growth.

How do Hebi Naturals Sell their product?
When I talked to Harsh about how do they sell their product he disclosed that when they were new to this startup selling products was the biggest challenge for them as there were already so many companies selling Compost. Then they used their tricky mind and tried to put uniqueness in their product on a concept of Multi-Purpose compost. You can read this whole in Harsh’s own words.
We just try to be different from them and came on a concept of Multi purpose Compost which can be used in all types of plants and is rich in all nutrients, we wanted to make our company structure to be sustained so we used juice and flower and vegetable sellers waste which use to be thrown on roads usually but we collected that and decomposed it and added all our organic nutritive components and form our star product, HEBI MULTI PURPOSE COMPOST.
So, wanted to let people know that you don’t always have to have an out of the box idea to be an Entrepreneur but simple modification which is good for everyone can also make you unique.

Yes, They approached vegetable and fruit sellers, neighbors, and social media to sell their Hebi Multi-Purpose Compost.
