Product Bulb

India’s startup ecosystem has experienced exponential growth in recent years, emerging as one of the world’s most vibrant and dynamic landscapes for innovation and entrepreneurship. Fueled by a confluence of factors such as a burgeoning spending power and widespread digital adoption, the Indian startup scene has evolved into a hotbed of creativity, attracting talent, investment, and attention from across the globe.

One such company that caught my eye was topmate.io. I was initially looking for expert market places, spent some time on Seven Seven Six 7️⃣7️⃣6️⃣ ’s Intro, though really interesting and opening up access to high profile accomplished  leaders, entrepreneurs and founders, the cost of services seemed pretty high on average (at least in the business and startup section, which I was interested in). Then I stumbled upon topmate.io – the Indian born startup that’s currently establishing itself pretty well in both the US and India! (I think I found them through a LinkedIn post from Aishwarya Srinivasan, kudos to her for surfacing really interesting companies out here!) Topmate seems to democratize the access to experts from a wider range of creators and user-segment, and keeps adding interesting features like paid digital products and subscritions.

So I thought it would be really interesting to bring in the Head of Product at Topmate, Yash Jakhete as my next guest in the Product Bulb Podcast!! We explore a wide range of topics from the Product Vision and strategy for Topmate, why it’s NOT an expert marketplace (!!), to some of the challenges they faced, how they have overcome that, role of customer feedback, monetization strategies and so much more!!
