Raj Shamani's Figuring Out

In this episode of figuring out, we have Amit Kumar Agarwal and Saurav Garg, the Founders of NoBroker.com. We talked about the future of tech-based businesses, the hustle behind building a startup, financial planning, and much more.Saurabh Garg started NoBroker in 2014 after being unable to find a house that didn't require him to pay brokerage on classifieds and rental platforms. He and Amit Kumar Agarwal and Akhil Gupta were inspired by how consumer internet platforms such as BookMyShow had eased movie ticketing and MakeMyTrip had eased travel booking. Founded in  2014, NoBroker is a Bangalore-based startup in the real estate search domain. It connects flat and property owners with tenants and buyers directly through its platform, thereby making buying, selling, and renting of properties more straightforward, transparent, and affordable.In this episode, we have discussed why startups fail and the things people don’t tell you about entrepreneurship. If you are interested in entrepreneurship, watch this episode till the end.Social Media Handles of NoBroker:Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/nobroker/Twitter https://twitter.com/nobrokercom•   •   •🎧 Stream Figuring Out episodes on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/736rhmW7vilNgkFFo8aDz4📺 Watch Figuring Out episodes on YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE0Jo6NF_JYO5-phess8GKafKMtPv3tfZ☑️ Subscribe to Figuring Out Clips:https://www.youtube.com/c/FiguringOutClips00:00 - Introduction01:47 - The idea of NoBroker04:40 - Should startups focus on a lot of things?06:50 - Elimination of middlemen07:27 - Cost of disruption09:16 - Tech eliminating jobs11:03 - Empowering people through technology13:36 - Who should pursue entrepreneurship?17:20 - Framework to identify new business ideas18:17 - Game of becoming a unicorn21:53 - What is the motivation of Founders24:05 - Stock Market Vs.
