In a world where balancing work and family life can seem impossible, one couple decided to make a bold move—quitting their stable corporate jobs to pursue a shared dream of building their own business. What started as a leap of faith soon turned into the success story of the best social media agency run by a dynamic duo of couplepreneurs. Their journey to entrepreneurial freedom was motivated by the desire to be present for their children while also doing what they loved.
The Decision to Pivot
For many working parents, the daily grind of corporate life can be overwhelming, with long hours, intense stress, and little time spent with loved ones. For Moumita Sen and Anirban Sen, both seasoned professionals in the marketing and HR industries, the tipping point came when they realized they were missing out on precious moments with their growing children. Despite having successful careers, they knew that something needed to change. Moumita took the leap first and quit her job in 2018.
Moumita decided to utilise her blogging and marketing experience to something that can cater unique experiences for brands but at the comfort of taking care of her kid. And thus their agency Social Connoisseurs Branding Solutions came into being.
“I was constantly juggling jobs with family responsibilities. There were days when my child would just refuse to enter the daycare doors and I ended up leaving him there,.”Moumita Sen explains. “We wanted to create a life where we could be there for our children, but still pursue something we were passionate about.”
Inspired by the potential of digital marketing and the rise of social media, the couple made the difficult but life-changing decision to leave their corporate careers behind and start their own business. They saw an opportunity to combine their professional expertise and love for creative work in a way that would allow them to stay close to their family, while also helping other businesses grow through the power of social media.
Building the Agency: The Early Days
With a shared vision in mind, Moumita and Anirban dove headfirst into building their business. They decided to specialize in social media marketing, recognizing the increasing importance of online presence in the modern business landscape. The couple brought together their unique strengths—Anirban’s technical know-how and Moumita Sen’s creativity and communication skills—to create a dynamic team that could offer social media solutions for businesses of all sizes.
However, the transition wasn’t without challenges. There were moments of self-doubt, long sleepless nights working on the business, and plenty of hurdles along the way. But through determination and a strong belief in their mission, Moumita and Anirban found their rhythm. They quickly learned the ropes of running a business, building a brand, and managing clients—all while prioritizing their children’s needs.
“We knew we had to make this work for the sake of our family,” Anirban says. “We didn’t want to sacrifice time and health of our kids, so we structured our days in a way that allowed us to focus on both the business and our family life.”
The couple also embraced flexibility in their work schedule, adapting to the needs of their children. They began waking up early to get some quiet work done before the kids woke up, taking breaks during the day to spend time together as a family, and working into the nights when the children were asleep.
The Growth of a Family-Run Business
As their social media agency began to grow, so did their reputation. Word of mouth, along with a strategic approach to wings of digital marketing, helped them attract clients who were impressed with their passion, dedication, and personalized approach. The couple’s ability to connect with their clients on a personal level set them apart from other agencies, creating a loyal customer base that valued their commitment to delivering results.
“We treat our clients like partners,” says Moumita Sen. “We’re invested in their success, and we take the time to understand their brand, their goals, and their challenges. That personal touch has helped us build strong relationships and trust with the businesses we work with.”
As their business flourished, the husband wife duo found new ways to innovate and expand their offerings. They added services such as content creation, influencer partnerships, and social media management to their repertoire. With their kids now involved in the day-to-day of the family business, they started to envision ways to incorporate their values into the agency’s work. This not only strengthened their brand but also brought a sense of fulfillment in knowing they were building something that would support their family for years to come.
The Impact of Their Family-Centered Business
What sets Moumita Sen and Anirban apart from other entrepreneurs is their commitment to family and their shared values. The Sen’ journey from corporate employees to thriving business owners is proof that with determination, adaptability, and a strong sense of purpose, it’s possible to build a successful business while prioritizing what matters most.
“Our business isn’t just about making money; it’s about creating a lifestyle where we can be there for our children, support each other, and help others grow along the way,” Moumita Sen says.
Through their success, they’ve inspired other parents and aspiring entrepreneurs to take a chance on their dreams. Their story shows that family and business can coexist in harmony, and that with the right mindset, it’s possible to build a life that supports both personal and professional goals.

Looking ahead, they plan to expand even further, with aspirations to grow their team and mentor other couplepreneurs who are ready to make the leap into the world of business ownership.
“We’re just getting started,” Anirban says. “The journey has been incredible, but we know there’s so much more we can do. Our dream is to build a legacy that not only supports our family but also helps others achieve their own entrepreneurial goals.”
Moumita Sen adds, “We’ve learned that it’s not just about chasing success; it’s about creating a life we love, with the people we love, doing what we love. That’s the real definition of success.”
