very excellent communication skills (compliment)...brief,rich information for the people who have just an idea for business ...i mean the whole cycle of this startup thing and how it works....great coverage of the many states and their startups imparting useful information of the current business world. Thank you.
buddy this series is great just keep going and please if possible increase the frequency and an additional request.....can you make a comprehensive video on the new quick commerce startups like dunzo , zepto , instamart etc please please i really want this one
Sure thing Yam, we’ll keep going with this series 🙂 Here’s the video we made on Why 10-Minute Delivery Startups Are Taking Over India’s Online Grocery Space czcams.com/video/7rARKQD8HNU/video.html -Caleb
@@backstagewithmillionaires thanks i like the straight to point approach in your video unlike some indian startup news channels which just over exagerate things
We have just created our MVP, what should be our next step as we will need funding to sustain as it’s a tech project ? Where should we aply for angels and VC?
I Love your content a lot. Thanks for giving so much knowledge. I don't know about others, but to me those fake stock footages are very distracting. Sometimes they shift my focus to something else and I have to rewind the video. You can just show yourself talking. That would be more authentic. Thanks again.
Hi Naresh, being on camera actually takes a significantly longer time to film, as I need to commit all of the lines to memory and present them to the camera without being able to read off of the script. This video alone took about 2 hours to film, and that was mainly off camera - being on camera would have at least doubled the time to 4 hours, so it isn't really a feasible option for me. But I appreciate you sharing the idea, and I apologize for the distracting visuals! We try our best to line the visuals up with the narration, but sometimes I know they sometimes don't align perfectly with what I'm saying. -Caleb
Definitely i wanna see And most of the people see but may be they are busy with other works of their own not commenting So do the next video definitely
It’s commission-based. They take a cut of every order. EDIT: It’s possible that this isn’t actually what they’re doing, and that they’re actually intentionally not taking a cut of every order, and if this were the case they would be burning capital to keep their prices low to increase customer acquisition speed. Either way though, this a commission-based business model, even if they aren’t actively taking a cut right now. -Caleb
How do investors see the company started by couples? (There is a high changes of wrong doings. Also, what is the status of relationship. Are they committed/married. What happens when relationship breaks. There was controversy in shark tank india when ashneer grover asked about relationship between unmarried entrepreneur couple.)
Super video. Highly informative for someone who wishes to enter into this exciting area. Would it be possible to let us know what is the failure rate in terms of percentage. For example, if an angel investor invests a total of 100 in 10 different startups, is there any indicative figure as to, in how many of those 10, he actually loses out
It doesn’t seem to be confirmed yet Devansh - media is throwing around the word “finalised” but we’ll wait until we hear that from the companies. Once it’s official I think they will make a proper announcement. -Caleb
Hey can you make a video on what knowledge do one have to start a startup. Or finding co-founders and what skills to look in them. For building MVP if we don't have a technical knowledge it isn't easy to hire a person to build mvp right. Can you make a video on this topic
Caleb , Don't you think we need a platform similar to Kickstarter to encourage innovation and entrepreneurship in India without expecting equity or anything in return ?
Good question! It's a nice idea, but I wonder if people would be willing to fund projects with no incentive? Trust in Indian startups is at an all-time low due to overvaluation, layoffs, and many startups going out of business due to unavailability of venture capital. Adopting a Kickstarter-style model might work though - offering early versions of the product, or some gift/trinket for lower-tier donations. The only issue is that India's current startup ecosystem is really not as hardware-centric as America's (even non-technical founders in US can just outsource to China without much backlash from consumers, but Indian startups will not pursue this for obvious reasons). Kickstarter primarily is a platform for hardware product startups, so maybe that's one of the reasons Kickstarter copies haven't taken off in India. India's startup ecosystem is mainly software, service, or web/app-based startups, and this doesn't work well for Kickstarter. But perhaps an Indian version of Kickstarter geared towards more homegrown hardware projects could *kickstart* a hardware revolution in India! That would be really amazing to see. India's hardware space is still so nascent, would love to see it take off. -Caleb
@@backstagewithmillionairesI am college student personally a hardware product ethusiast . But I have seen a lot hardware youtube hobbyist channels do have Patreon pages .Through which the viewers do contribute . But sadly people all people who build hardware won't be that willing to do the same.

i think the whole EV market is making a mistake of branding themselves as 'ECO FRIENDLY' because lets be honest in INDIA no one cares as of now so instead they should just tell ev as just another property of bike or car and instead of playing a victim card of less tech advancements just go out there and compete with exsisting vehicals and compel people to buy EV just because its GOOD
Which is worse, under or overpronounciation? Either way people will complain 😂 correct pronunciation is ideal but very hard to pull off, especially in India with so many different languages. -Caleb

Continue this series.
Amazing content.. Please keep it up.
Can you explain the revenue model of zepto? Is it commission based or subscription based?
It’s commission-based. They take a cut of every order.
EDIT: It’s possible that this isn’t actually what they’re doing, and that they’re actually intentionally not taking a cut of every order, and if this were the case they would be burning capital to keep their prices low to increase customer acquisition speed.

Really, your presentation and explanation is soo good 😊
Thank you so much for all the great knowledge!
How do investors see the company started by couples? (There is a high changes of wrong doings. Also, what is the status of relationship. Are they committed/married. What happens when relationship breaks.
There was controversy in shark tank india when ashneer grover asked about relationship between unmarried entrepreneur couple.)
he is not talking about couples or singles, he is considering single means one founder or two founders; lol you taking in it wrong way.
Super video. Highly informative for someone who wishes to enter into this exciting area. Would it be possible to let us know what is the failure rate in terms of percentage.

a video on infra market an Indian unicorn which is not heard by anyone
where's part 2??
Where we do connect to sponsor?
How can a black owned startup get funding... I have a real opportunity with a real MVP but can't get any traction
No one gives a fuck that it’s black owned
Go after black owned VC firms
Get a vc list.. then start reaching out. I have friend that got turned over 200 times before getting his yes. He now drives a ferrari.
😊👍
Suprised by the use of Indian examples
i think the whole EV market is making a mistake of branding themselves as 'ECO FRIENDLY' because lets be honest in INDIA no one cares as of now
so instead they should just tell ev as just another property of bike or car and instead of playing a victim card of less tech advancements just go out there and compete with exsisting vehicals and compel people to buy EV just because its GOOD
yeah the economics and saving money would seem to be a better value proposition for our Indian consumers while the ecofriendly is tagged by default
@@yanpvuokikon exactly buddy `
So selling ur startup basically mens getting money off ur child. 💀
Lol 😂 you can think of it as late adoption. -Caleb

You're killing us with these overpronounciations.
