EXPOSING Startups & VC Money Secrets - Plivo Founder Venky | FO 118 - Raj Shamani

[@kavalpatel18]

Thank you for doing these podcasts. I think the major question you are asking is "What have guests done and have done up till now" but I like to hear "How have they done it in depth." e.g: If any Tech company founder comes to the next episode Ask them: How they thought about this idea, How they raised funding, How they defined equities this kind of depth question really adds Value I think.

[@rupeshmandal3159]

Man, this type of podcast we all need. I see all of your podcasts, but this was very special because we've got very intresting Insights about global corporates culture. And also sometimes founders tend to hesitate to give answers to such questions but he has answered in a very appropriate manner.

[@Abhi.RishiVlogs]

Hi Raj, You ask good pointed questions which provides lots of information..Cheers!!

[@ps-gh3hu]

[@saksarkarmaker8025]

Hi Raj, Your questions are tremendous with respect to each and every guest. I would like to see a separate video describing how a private company works, from the MD to the CEO. What are their responsibilities? I would also like to add a few things, like when a new idea comes up, how to decide on hiring talents and the specific positions of any company, and how to raise funds. All these details in a series of videos or a brief idea in a single video It would be extremely helpful. Thanks Raj.

[@krickfans]

Love your shows... as an older entrepreneur who has made many mistakes, your conversations with successful entrepreneurs are very enlightening... i tend to agree with Venky regarding trying to make do with vc funding, bcos the pressure on giving returns to their investment becomes too much... sometimes its better to grow organically... I've preferred bank loans, using family property as collateral when the business has good potential instead of the stress of people looking over ur shoulder & the constant interference... but each to their own.

[@yashrastogi6503]

Excellent podcast ❤

[@Royalgirl_998]

Your studio is looking so amazing..and this conservation is amazing+++++++

[@Aditya_Prabhune]

3:44 This thumping sound in the BG made me think that the floor above mine had a lot of movement or my door was being banged repeatedly. Also, my floor is empty and pretty dark, it's 3am, and I got shit scared😅😅😂

[@ahmeddeph7159]

Very smart and likeable guest.

[@nikhilshrivastava3959]

Very insightful!!

[@foodtequila]

You're right, delivering quality content through videos is shaping the future of communication and engagement due to its visual appeal and accessibility.

[@shivamkumarsingh8668]

Nice podcast shamani Bhai

[@47amit]

I used to start by day at 8 AM in the morning, when official time was 9 AM while all my teammates would come by 10 AM. I would discuss my To Dos for day with my boss and make it a point to complete them by 8 PM. That was the time all my teammates would leave. But my manager would come up at 8 PM with new unplanned work and would ask me to get it done urgently in that day itself, even if I would suggest it could finish it next day he would insist I finish it in same day. Later I would know he hasnt even looked at it for days if not weeks and would again ask me his queries of those work when he would take up. Thus, I would sit late in office for like 10 PM or 12 AM. When I thought i would get promotion on managerial post, a new MBA was hired. Thats why we could never have that Chinese work culture in India.

[@rockerrz4424]

Thank you for your support and guidance Raj sir more i want this type podcast

[@pavaneshchahar5417]

Hey Raj , thanks man you are doing really great job❤

[@rajshamani]

Thank you for your support man❤️

[@rajotavo]

The paradigm of large conglomerates dominating markets has shifted! With small cos and startups disrupting, and particularly with many startup brands like BoAt and others dramatically capturing markets...the corp. sector has understood the power of internet and that's why things will change dramatically over this coming decade...

[@NITISHKUMAr-1702]

Loved it, keep doing these podcasts, got many things 🎉

[@pratikshinde4728]

Amazing episode brother. Please make a separate episode on growing bootstrapped startups.

[@maheesingh3307]

Hello Raj, I really like your podcasts and appreciate your hard work. Thanks a lot for bringing these kind of guests. A question I would like you to ask is about the VR technology. Is Indian market ready for businesses which will use VR, META and what will be the challenges faced by the startups which will introduce these to the market first in their respected area, will their be first mover advantages or disadvantages.

How do i test feasibility for an idea? And do market research without much capital? Need help with this ❤

[@chandrakanthkitta941]

Hi Raj , i wanted to know how lower middle class youngsters can think and build like this kind of startup and business, and what are the ways to learn and think like that, because why I am asking I am from that category and I am very much interested in business but don't have much knowledge about business, so please work on this question 🙏 we wanted to become a entrepreneur, business man ... I know you are doing same thing but still we are not getting the idea please go deeper in this question and some time your talking about only higher level people, like who they are already ready to start a business, my question is simple how lower middle class people can think about business and entrepreneurship.🙏🙏

[@omkarkolekar008]

Hi raj my name omkar I think you ask more deep questions.😊

[@bhushansonar-ai]

Ask exact question on early phase from idea to Pre-Seed round

[@paan35007]

After staying in Germany one thing i learnt about what india does wrong 1) while setting up my home here i saw how horrible German furniture is . But germans sell themselves on their quality..which is existent oly in few areas, so creating auras and perceptions, creating narratives is very important. 2 ) indians should stop thinking western culture and western lifestyle is superior to theirs .it really is not ...be steadfast in maintaining your self respect 3 ) think of yourself as equal to others ..and always think of over working the other guys from other nations...work more than them always... Thats t we will be the best

[@GMATPrepVideos]

please ask this to your guest : How can a person figure out what to build . How to build something which requires least capital and give instant profits and money flow .

[@omkarpawar1921]

what i think about upskilling is that , like many of my frinds and usually our genration of students are very smart but are not given the right knowledge to upskill . like we get into top engineering colleges score 9 cgps and when getting placed companies ask for completely different skills . so i think thats the problem . something like .... in horse race .... we r not feeding the horses properly and expect it to run top class .

[@kunjtheseeker2324]

Please bring up Darshan Patel sir as guest
