Noah Kagan Presents
The Silicon Valley of India's RICHEST Student (Suumit Shah of Dukaan)
30 Mar 2023
In today's episode, I talk to Suumit Shah of Dukaan. Suumit is a software engineer from Bangalore, India—AKA the Silicon Valley of India!! When the pandemic started and people everywhere were looking for ways to sell online, Suumit noticed a BIG problem. There were tons of websites to help people start online stores but NONE of them were smartphone friendly. So he created Dukaan in 48-hours. (Y'all know I'm a BIG fan of building a business in a weekend!!) Then he listed it on AppSumo to get customers and make $130k. Dang. Good work Suumit!! You can actually shop Dukaan on AppSumo RIGHT NOW. It's just $69, there's no subscription fees, and you can set up a store right from your phone. Go to www.AppSumo.com/Products/Dukaan If you've ever wanted to learn about what the Silicon Valley of India is like, you'll love this episode. In this conversation, you'll enjoy 3 BIG things: - What people DON'T know about India's entrepreneurship scene - Suumit's biggest life lesson for people to succeed and stand out like he has - And how Suumit built and launched a million-dollar business in a weekend Enjoy those 3 things… plus a bunch more ear nuggets along the way.
