She has an avid interest in\nsocial media marketing specially Instagram which is the platform that\nhas led to the phenomenal growth in business for brand DevilYou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n<strong>DevilYou<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n<strong>An\nInitiative of DEMASS Chocolates <\/strong>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\u201c<strong>Save\nthe Earth\u2026..It is the only planet where Chocolate is found<\/strong><strong>\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n<strong>Who\nare we?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\nDevilYou\nis the brainchild of two academicians in the field of marketing who\nalways believed that real learning could happen beyond the classroom\nlectures. Despite their regular hectic schedule of teaching,\ntraining, project supervision and nurturing young talents, they never\nhave deviated from their core principles, philosophy and ethics.\nTheir inexorable march of passion, perfectionism and commitment\ndovetailed into their love for chocolates that led to formation of\nthe company DEMASS Chocolates and brand DevilYou in 2016 along with\ntwo students. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\nBut\nit has a long past!!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\nIt\nall started with a class project seven years back on homemade\nchocolates, which then got bigger into a business model that the\nstudents have presented and won prize in business plan competition\nand live sales competition organized by premium business schools\nincluding IIM Calcutta. As a classic case of lean start up, this\njourney witnessed a number of pivots and design thinking, considering\nthe challenges that one academician often faces on being entered into\nan uncharted territory of entrepreneurship. In 2016, things started\nshaping a bit with two students having firm commitment in the\nproject. They all also shared the belief of sustainable and inclusive\ngrowth as espoused by Triple Bottom Line model which focuses on\ncreating social and environmental value along with the traditional\nfinancial value. Hence, the company since its inception days focused\non using natural ingredients in the production to the extent\npossible. Currently the company\u2019s endeavour hinges on incorporating\nmore and more flavours suiting the Indian palate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> The next level will involve emancipation of marginalized people in the process of business value creation by empowering them with knowledge, skill and confidence so that they could quash the evil of poverty, alienation, lack of self-esteem and mistreatment thus  justifying the brand motto <em><strong>\u201cDestroy Evil in You\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Facebook Page<\/strong>:  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DevilYouChocolatesCakes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DevilYouChocolatesCakes\/<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LinkedIn Profile: <\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/dr-mahua-datta-28b91111\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/dr-mahua-datta-28b91111\/<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Mahua Datta is a versatile Marketing trainer and facilitator.
