Episode 4 - My Interview on The Startup Operator

Earlier this year, my friend and head of marketing at Vymo, Roshan Cariappa, invited me on his podcast The Startup Operator. We spend a lot of time talking about marketing anyway, so we recorded ourselves talking about how marketing has evolved over the last decade, brand building, community, our pet peeves and a lot more!

Episode 3 - Shreyas Achar

Shreyas is Head of Marketing at Plum, an employee healthcare startup, which I think does some of the best B2B brand work in the country. Earlier, he’s had stints at SaaS startups like CleverTap and Razorpay. One of his major early stints was in software sales, the influence of which we speak about in our conversation. We spend a good amount of time talking about imposter syndrome, and about finding your feet as a marketer. It is probably the most honest conversation about this particular topic I have had. I hope you enjoy it. Shreyas has an engineering degree from SASTRA, Thanjavur, and an MBA from ISB, Hyderabad.
