Story

Why C O M B?

The story of C O M B is the story of most of the cosmopolitan family. Everyone knows that working moms have 2 jobs. A career and a family. Little do we know how tough the second job is.

Mom’s getting ready for work. She has to leave the house by 7. As usual, she woke up earlier than everyone else, to get a few things done around the house, wake the kids up, get a workout in. She switches on the lights and geysers around the house, and finally makes herself a cup of coffee. After all this, she sits down on her laptop to get some work done.

While leaving, the husband looks at her and says,

“Darling, can we take care of the electricity bill?”

Moms like,

“Have you seen the electricity bill?”

The husband gives a worried look.

She looks at him and says, Later.”

Then looks at her watch, and notices that it’s getting late, so she gets up to leave.

Mom shuts down her laptop and grabs the car keys, Hardly does she reach the door, when she sees a fan on in the living room. She switches it off. Then notices a light in the adjacent room, rolls her eyes, and goes to switch that off. She hears the fan in her son’s room and goes to switch that off. She turns around to see that the air conditioner’s on, the bathroom lights are on, the geyser’s beeping.

She rushes around the house frantically, switching off every appliance left on.

By the end of it, She’s late for work now.

Exhausted, she picks up the phone, messages,

“I’m coming in late today,

The reply reads,

“AGAIN!!”

She replies,

“Morning routines 🙂

How do we reach our customers?

For transforming homes, we reach our customers primarily in 2 ways, to acquire individual clients, we use digital marketing mediums and affiliate marketing programs.

We also offer mass-scale home automation programs. For this, we collaborate with builders, interior designers, real estate agents, architects, and landlords.

We also plan to offer commercial automation. Mom’s and Dad’s aren’t the only ones worried about mounting electricity bills. There is a huge market for retail store owners, mall owners, and other commercial and government buildings like airports, who also have an incentive to transform into smart infrastructure. We are planning to reach them through sales campaigns and access to builder networks.

 

Why should anyone support us?

Nowadays, we often forget about the little things that matter in life. These things later compound and become an anchor to our progress and comfort.

C O M B aims to solve this problem. With simple transformation measures, we are trying to offer the possibility of work-life balance, making your life much more seamless, convenient, and smarter, while saving you money, energy, and time.

Moreover, from a geopolitical scenario, the Indian government has launched a smart city initiative to transform 100 cities into smart cities. The service we offer fits the sustainability initiatives of the government, because smart homes are energy efficient and reduce wastage by up to 40%.

Furthermore, the home automation industry is supposed to grow at a C.A.G.R of 29.8% for the next 5 years, and the revenue from the market is expected to reach 300,000 million INR BY 2022.

 

Moms life now…

It’s been a month since we transformed her house into a smart home.

Mom still wakes up earlier than everyone else, but now, all the geysers and lights are already on because we scheduled those settings for her.

She dresses up, more relaxed than before, with more time on her hands.

Even her coffee’s made.

With the extra time, She sits down to get some work done before leaving.

The husband already left with the kids.

She’s getting ready to leave now.

When she’s starting the car, a notification pops up,

You left a light on in the pantry, do you want to switch it off?

Mom smiles and initiates a command which shuts off all the appliances she wants.

Later, the same evening, the husband walks over to her, and exclaims,

“How did you cut back so much on our electricity bill?”

Mom smirks and says,

“I’m Smart.”
