In today’s episode of Figuring Out, we have Saahil Goel in conversation with Raj Shamani. He is the MD and CEO of Shiprocket, one of India’s leading e-commerce companies. We have made this episode like a masterclass for anyone who wants to start a business but is clueless about how to get started.

In this episode, we talked about the growth of Shiprocket and key opportunities in the e-commerce space. We then talked about new unexplored yet profitable business opportunities for new entrepreneurs, three global trends and niches where businesses can be made, and top export business ideas. We also talked about the in-depth process of making a business plan, why packaging matters in India, why he recommends direct selling over marketplaces for startups, and why price point matters to attract the right consumers.

Towards the end, we cover essential marketing strategies for brands, the game-changing impact of great copywriting, and why Apple has some of the best copy in the industry. Finally, we talk about what drives investors to fund startups, the key factors they consider, and the common mistakes entrepreneurs should avoid.

    GDP decline hai export, decline hai, consumers so Gaye sare, maal bik nai Raha, jobs ja rahi hai kese Naya business karega bhai

  10. @abhayrawat8832 says

    Sir, you should organize all your podcasts.

    For example, make a separate list of business podcasts.

    If you do this, it becomes easier to watch and search podcasts.

    This is my suggestion.

  11. @zenitsu7199 says

    amazing

  12. @teamlpb9963 says

    Great session ✌🏻✌🏻

  13. @Yeeshuthakur says

    Want someone who tells about importing from other countries like china or Europe countries ..total process. I think in the times like this where imports exports are in crazy numbers. And everyone wants to do it. It wil be very helpful

  14. @dheerajgupta05 says

    This guest is knowledgable. Unfortunately not able to connect with him as you understand the genuiness of a founder with humbleness. There is a mix of proudness here which kills the aroma midway. The essence of communication is being humble and ofcourse the bigger you are humble you become. One very specific pointer for my this comment is short terms. When you are in public space and reaching to masses its important to talk in layman terms and avoid short terms

  15. @AbhishekYadav-fp7gt says

    I want to be the founder of Tally software or Zoho software

    👍👍

  28. @sahil1427 says

    Great podcast loved each aspect!! Further could you please have a guest speaker who emphasises on how dealings work with people at the grassroots level- because everyone is not engaged with someone, it is difficult to find the person or speak to the person who has the decision making authority… something on that aspect would be great

  29. @Vikaskr1890 says

    I think in the case of kitchen accessories nowadays, onion or tomato chopper is in trend in many households as it does need electricity, it is manual and not very expensive, around 200-300 bucks.

  30. @tejprep says

    Thank you very much bhai

  31. @sumitkarmakar2702 says

    You're doing an amazing job in the podcasting space and bringing a fresh perspective to it. It would be great if you could invite founders and key members of the management bodies who took heavy decisions, started from scratch, and built companies with great value. Hearing about their initial struggles, the challenges they faced, the strategies they implemented, and their ultimate success would be truly inspiring. Especially those brands that made a strong comeback after years of setbacks, like Tata Motors, Royal Enfield, Old Spice, Onida, Parle Agro, Boat, Mahindra, Orient Electric, Polycab, Micromax, Intex, Asian Paints, Tanishq, Ola, Ather Energy, Hero MotoCorp, etc. Their stories of resilience, planning, and actions would be super motivating for your audience!

  40. @nitinbansal7288 says

    Hey Raj, apart from asking just about their business. kindly ask questions from all your guests about their daily routine, time management, some life hacks, motivation factors, what matters to them in life, how much is money important to them, how much they believe in luck, how do they managed their family and work in early days of their startup, how to find an idea if we don't have any etc etc.
