A sneak peak into a SaaS startup - Discussion with Call Hippo founder

India will be SaaS capital of the world. Even today, India has many SaaS companies like Freshworks, Zoho, Postman, etc which are not billion dollar businesses. 

But there are at least a few thousand SaaS businesses running from small towns of India with a small team of 10 to 100 people - all bootstrapped. In this episode, we are talking about such SaaS businesses.

I have Ankit Dudhwewala, a founder of Call Hippo and Software suggest based out of Ahmedabad. We discussed about how to ideate, build team and make it a million-dollar profitable business. Ankit is a non-tech founder and hence he talked about starting a SaaS business without any technical background.

How do content based internet companies look at their revenues?

In this comeback episode, we discuss various levers that internet companies use to drive revenue. As they say, if you don't pay for the product, you are the product. Internet companies look at MAU, time spent on a website and the ads they can serve in that particular session to extract money out of advertisers. The article written by Chetan can be found here http://bit.ly/3oAJTIC

Behind the scenes

So after a long hiatus, we are back. And I thought why not start with a 'Behind the Scenes' episode. In this small episode, I and Chetan are discussing what we should talk about in our next episode, how it should be structured, etc.

It takes a lot of hard work and grit to create all these episodes. So pour in your support and good wishes.

This is a very informal discussion. I am sipping my chai and having some snacks in between the talk as well.

Decoding Healthcare technology

Often, technopreneurs solve a problem that doesn't exist. And this is seen very often in various industries but more so in the healthcare technology industry.

In this episode, we talk with Mr. Ritesh Mittal, a young and dynamic healthcare leader who has spent almost 15 years in various hospitals. I believe, he is among the top 50 people in India who understands the business of medicine and hospitals. He has a keen interest in healthcare technology and in this episode, he talks in detail about why health-tech startups couldn't create any dent in the industry and what problems should they pick up. He is a very good mentor for anyone looking to do a heath-tech startup. You can reach him out at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/riteshmittal124/
