It is the right time to invest in the HeyoPhone app which digitizes customer engagement for all these businesses. Ankit has successfully built MyOperator, understands the SMB space and his is the right team to build something so simple and powerful for Indias 6 crore-plus small businesses," said Aakash Chaudhry, co-founder, Aakash Educational Services.
