Only Fans, What's Next For D2C, & Community Biz ft. BlissClub

Think Fast with Varun and Suchita

On Think Fast this week, Varun & Suchita begin by discussing the Twitter sting operation and how the company has been in the news for some time now, and not for the best reasons. Further, they talk about Jack Ma pulling out of PayTM & Ankiti Bose getting fired from Zilingo.

Suchita's stories include Community Led business featuring BlissClub- is it a reliable and sustainable business model; Exploring D2C businesses in India and segments with growth potential including kids' health, sexual health, lifestyle management, etc, and exploring Masstige brands in India- their present-day standing and the corresponding evolution of the Indian consumer.

Varun tells us about Only Fans- how adult creators have found comfort in the platform but how that also has been giving them a sort of, negative image; Smytten's latest funding from Fireside Ventures, and how small cities have been driving Multiplex growth.

Varun recommends exploring the old school in a time when new, innovative (and digital) designs are the norm.

Suchita recommends a newsletter 'Lean Luxe'
