Fast Cars, Managing YouTubers & Making BILLION DOLLARS w/ @Pranav | Stories with Rusty 🎙
Pranav Panpalia, the founder of Opraah, now extended to Opraah Gaming too, is on Stories with Rusty for the second time, It is clear that the man has stories to tell and interesting insights to add. #influencermanagement #talentmanagement #storieswithrusty#vedantrusty #F1 If you don’t know, he runs a talent management agency in India, and he manages @Slayy Point , @Mythpat , @Techno Gamerz and over 40 other creators who are making big in the space. Managing online influencers is all fun and games till you actually hear this conversation and know what challenges are there in the space. When talked to him about brands collaborating with influencers, he gave a very unique perspective of how brands matter in the space and what creators are doing for themselves is what will make them relevant beyond money and fame. The influencer management tool is not getting brands to collaborate with but actually, doing good for creators. There is no talent management strategy, there are talent management ideas. Apart from that, if you have seen Pranav’s YouTube channel, you would have been tempted to search “fastest car in India under 20 lakhs”. Yes, he loves cars and we can see that from his social media. We have also talked about cars and how he maintains them. We briefly spoke about his future plans and his billion dollar dream. Listening to this conversation will make you want to make a million dollars from nothing and I get it. It is inspiring, insightful and interesting all at the same time. Want more of it?

You might also have heard “Rohit Raj BB ki Vines” somewhere if you follow Bhuvan Bam. #StorieswithRusty #RohitRaj #BBKiVines #CreatorEconomy #Producers We had a very insightful conversation about the space of creating content and being on such a big platform that your own channel can be known as a “platform” in itself. We discuss about the creator economy India and how it is growing or rather will grow in the future. We also come up with a new term called “Enabler Economy” which you will see in the episode. Apart from that, The ups and downs of experimenting, executing and launching the shows, music videos, and sketches. We also talk about how Bhuvan Bam worked with brands ethically and maintained his credibility and stayed true to his audience. Bhuvan Bam net worth is a big question on the internet but Rohit Raj also talks about how nobody in his close circle cares about making money as much as creating because money is always in the picture in long run. We also talk about the competition in the space and how all the creators like to call themselves Creator Partners rather than competitors. I think one of the things that stand out about Rohit is that he is an extremely loyal and trustworthy guy and building trust in the workplace is one of the most important and rather difficult tasks to do. __ In this Episode: 0:00 // Introduction, random chit chat 3:43 // What is the motivation of creators 6:59 // What happens when you are 27 11:10 // How is Rohit linked to Meerut? 12:45 // How Rusty met Rohit? 13:33 // How does Rohit manage his office? 18:13 // Rohit’s Work Ethics 22:56 // How content is changing 28:36 // How brands have changed since 2016 34:48 // Bhuvan’s Brand Integrations 54:33 // The Journey of Managing Forms of Content 1:03:03 // The Process of Producing Dhindora 1:11:05 // The Learning Process 1:13:28 // Advertisements on Traditional Media 1:19:07 // Helping other Creators 1:20:55 // The Bigger Achievements of Creating Content 1:23:50 // Independent Creators and Numbers 1:26:55// What’s Next for Bhuvan 1:27:26 // How will Bhuvan Continue Creating Content 1:28:27 // Enabler Economy 1:36:08 // Itna Paisa 1:38:05 // Life after and before Marriage 1:39:03 // What does Rohit do when he is free? 1:39:49 // Does work get intimidating? 1:41:26 // The Brighter Side of Working Want more of it?

Problems of Engineers, How To Build Engineers, College vs Skills, Earning Money & More | SWRE10 🎙
Kshitij, the founder of Devsnest, is a very interesting and inspirational person to talk to. Having been an employee of well-known corporates like Samsung, PayTM and Amazon, Kshtij recognized some loopholes and problems in the system of education, especially for Engineers. If you want to be a part of this group or want mentorship for that matter, go here- Checkout Devsnest: https://devsnest.in/ Devsnest course launch date: 1st Feb 2022 Devsnest Discord Community on: https://devsnest.in/discord #StorieswithRusty #EngineerProblems #Devsnest #DiscordCommunities The social and academic stigma that produces inefficient Engineers in India is real and needed attention so Kshitij founded Devsnest. It is basically a peer learning platform backed up by very strong guidance from the core of the program. Having talked to him for an hour convinced me that this initiative is not a business but a try to make an impact. Engineering Student Problems are talked about but never acted upon. It is sad and tragic for the students when they are exposed to the world outside their college and that is exactly what we talk about in the podcast. Best Edtech companies in India do not solve the basic problems like making sure the students are consistent and are learning through interaction because that is the best way of growing and learning.

One of the craziest stories he shares is how he traveled on a budget.

Secrets Of Influencer Marketing, Brands vs Indian Creators, Career Growth, Failures & More w/ Neel Gogia (Co-Founder Iplix Media) 🎙
Neel Gogia is a Co-Founder of iplix Media, a talent management agency managing some of the finest clients and creators in India. This conversation gives a lot of insights into the Influencer Marketing Industry and how it is so important to differentiate your Influencer Marketing Agency from others’. Neel talks about how it is important to give the brand the quality it deserves and manage 4-5 brands that sustain with you than to have a rolling set of brands that just do 2-3 campaigns and move on with the next agency. This helps you to sustain clients and boosts your aim for managing brands for the long run. #storieswithrusty #influencermarketing #talentmanagement #tipsforcontentcreators #podcast He also talks about how building a strong Influencer Marketing Strategy is a major part of the job. It may come from observing people online and providing them what is lacking. He shares one of his incidents with Audi and how they ended up dragging that pitch for 17 months before closing the client. Apart from that, it is also a “tips for content creators” podcast. Neel also gives a perspective on how it is important for creators to start their own businesses if they want to capitalize on content for the long term. A good place to start thinking for content creators’ business ideas if you haven’t already. We also talk about the importance of sustaining as content creators than blowing up and becoming irrelevant as faster. Neel also shares his experience with influencers and what they need from the commercial point of view at the moment. Neel shares his daily routine and his new business ideas too. An insightful conversation into an entrepreneur’s mind.

How An English Teacher, Changes Lives, Indian Literate & Much More w/ @Vedant Rusty on SWR S2E03 🎙
Less a podcast, more a conference call with two English Literature enthusiasts, vibing over Shakespeare, Theatre, The Beauty of Teaching, and The Essence of Keeping Learning. Krshna has done her Undergrad in English Literature from St. Xavier’s, Ahemdabad. Then she went ahead to do her Masters from the University of Nottingham. From there, she started her course of “Masters in Shakspearean Studies” at Kings College, London. #teachingenglish #bookworm #storieswithrusty Krshna is a fun, insightful, and very interactive person to talk with. I honestly haven’t had a conversation so deep about English Literature since a really long time. Her passion for stories, literature, and everything that it has to offer is worth experiencing. We, as fellow Book Worms, talk about plays (a lot of Shakespeare), a little bit about Russian literature, and classical literature in bits. Krishna brings her insights about her Shakespearean studies and we discuss the best of Shakespeare, be it the Bollywood adaptations or Hollywood Shakespeare Movies. As CBSE and ICSE students, we explore the academic literature in both the boards and how they are so different from each other. We also discuss how today’s generation perceives literature in a very different way and form than what we did 5 years ago. We talk about the challenges that come with teaching English literature to high school students. We also chew over the fact that English teachers are remembered very fondly because they teach life while everyone teaches facts. My interest in teaching literature is slowly starting to come back and with this podcast going live. We also walk through the theatre part of learning literature and share our stories of acting and directing plays. We also have our advice on how to start reading and how reading is important to develop empathy. It was basically a really fun conversation. Consider it a conference call with two literature enthusiasts being excited about the similar interests they share. It is a very insightful yet light conversation so maybe grab a snack and dive into a conversation with us.

I've learnt a lot from this podcast, understanding different perspectives, and taking away new understanding of childhood memories, sharing some interesting stories about relationships, alcohol, parents, and a lot of other stuff. You'll definitely enjoy this one!

Stories With Rusty E00 - Saying Hi! | Podcast by Vedant Rusty
I've always had a knack for storytelling, be it through writing short stories in school, or more recently with my YouTube channel 'Vedant Rusty'; and which is why, I'm bringing to you a new series of videos which I'm calling 'Stories With Rusty', just like the YouTube channel this podcast is released on. This is intended to be a podcast series about life, perspectives and stories that I gather from all the incredible people around me. Stories with Rusty is my attempt to tell stories that I think are incredible, and I hope you too will love them, and help share!
