“You need to face brutal realities”
“Always listen to advice, but do what you believe is right!”
“Don’t be shallow in your approach, go deep!”
– Mudit Jain and Rishabh Jain, founders of Qriyo.com during their discussion on scaling in non Tier-1 Cities
Firstly, I’m super excited today to be bringing to you a topic that we believe is not often talked about. The topic for the day is “Scaling in non Tier-1 Cities” (for startups). Not every startup has the luxury of being in a Tier-1 city. Hence this episode is dedictated to all you founders/would-be founders aiming to start and scale in non Tier-1 cities.
