From Freelance Hustle to Industry Leader: The Rise of Akrist Digitized
In an era where digital presence defines business success, Akrist Rai stands as a trailblazer who turned vision into value. From his early freelance days in 2018 to building a transformative digital marketing agency in the heart of Bihar, Akrist’s journey reflects passion, persistence, and purpose. Akrist Digitized, his brainchild founded in January 2021, is now a powerful force helping local brands rise to national recognition through strategic marketing and authentic storytelling.
The Spark: From Freelancer to Founder
Akrist began his career as a digital marketing freelancer, driven by the desire to help businesses grow through effective strategies. Over time, he recognized a glaring gap—local businesses in Bihar were still skeptical of online branding and hesitant to invest in digital growth. This insight became his turning point.
In January 2021, he took a leap of faith and founded Akrist Digitized, not just as a marketing agency, but as a movement to revolutionize regional businesses with purpose-driven branding and growth-focused strategies.
“I didn’t just want to promote businesses—I wanted to transform them,” says Akrist.
“Bihar has immense talent and potential. All it needed was someone to believe in it.”
Overcoming Resistance and Rebuilding Belief
Launching a digital agency in a traditionally conservative market came with its share of obstacles. Earning trust was the first and hardest hurdle. Local business owners were wary of digital solutions, having little exposure or prior success with marketing online.
Additionally, building a team that shared his vision, navigating tight budgets, and competing with bigger agencies demanded relentless effort. But Akrist didn’t falter. He focused on delivering value, one client at a time. With every project that generated results, confidence in digital marketing grew—and so did Akrist Digitized’s reputation.
Impact That Speaks for Itself

What started as a one-man hustle is now a full-fledged team, driven by results and united by values. “Every business we support becomes part of our journey. Their growth is our biggest achievement,” Akrist explains.
More Than Business—A Mission
At the heart of Akrist’s story lies a powerful mission: to empower Bihar and bring its entrepreneurial spirit into the digital spotlight. His goal isn’t just to scale his agency, but to create a platform for sustainable growth, creative freedom and meaningful impact.
“My motivation comes from the belief that real marketing isn’t just about selling—it’s about solving. It’s about helping businesses grow not just in numbers, but in trust, recognition, and relevance,” he shares.
He remains committed to maintaining integrity, staying creative, and adapting to change—values that keep Akrist Digitized ahead of the curve.
