Modern Entrepreneur Profile - Mississauga's Kumar Tanwar
/In conversation with Mississauga entrepreneur, Kumar Tanwar, owner of Clickworthy.
1. What does your company do?
At Clickworthy, we help small and mid-sized businesses grow faster. We turn their websites into growth engines through our SEO-focused digital marketing strategy. We offer Local and National SEO and PPC services, and we build and optimize WordPress and Shopify websites.
2. What inspired you to start your company?
I noticed how difficult it was for small businesses. Even when they had great products or services, they struggled to connect with the right customers—often because they couldn’t afford a downtown agency or felt they had to stick with a well-meaning family member who wasn’t really an expert.
3. What's the most valuable lesson you've learned as an entrepreneur?
Always stay open to feedback and keep learning. It might seem easier to do everything on your own, but having a solid support system and good mentors really makes a difference. And deliver more than you promise—those 5-star reviews matter.
4. How do you unwind?
I’ve enjoyed my share of skydiving and bungee jumping. Now, I spend quality time with my family—movie nights and board games are my favorite ways to recharge.
5. What advice do you have for aspiring entrepreneurs?
Don’t wait until you have everything figured out—just start. Build authentic relationships with your clients and keep honing your skills. The world changes quickly, so keep learning.
6. What are your goals for 2025?
I want Clickworthy to be one of the top three agencies with the highest number of genuine 5-star reviews for our services, and I hope to help more businesses in Mississauga. We’re also excited to use AI to solve real-world challenges that our clients face. If it takes going the extra mile, we’re all in.
7. How did the Mississauga Starter Company Plus program help you grow your business?
The key word is structure. The program offered structure and mentoring, helping us think through our plans and prepare for the next stage. With the resources, learning opportunities, and connections I’ve made at Idea Mississauga, I’m confident Clickworthy will reach new heights sooner than expected.
