Axel welcomes back Dino Orchard, a real estate investor, business leader and coach, to talk about the challenges of real estate investing and the importance of reflecting about what goes wrong so next time there is a better chance of making it go right.   There is a lot of sugar-coated real estate information out there. If you want to get into real investing, it's better you face the tough truth up front. And the truth is that real estate investing has tons of challenges and nothing turns out as planned. The good news is that you learn along the journey. Those lessons learned are often the best lessons and the more painful they are, the better the learning.   Dino shares with us a remote deal he has been working on this year in the US, all the way from notarizing to finalizing the transaction. This journey has been one challenge after the other; not only did he have to deal with foreign laws but also had to face a crazy market due to covid, come across a property in filthy conditions and cope with the damages a hurricane left on the property.   Dino and Axel reflect on Dino's incredible story of resilience.    You will learn how to invest remotely, how a cash deal works, how to react and face challenges and the importance of building a team, planning and educating yourself before buying remotely.

I talked about my inner child- acting silly,singing, - inside my private area-- my bedroom or living room - which is off limits to people outside or the public because i do not perform for others outside -my home - is part of my creative side ,-- it is my connection to being a professional singer, and songwriter, and all creators are criminals, In public---- i do not act silly usually unless i am on stage, performing etc. I also talked about my opposition to homophobic laws in United states, because the dont say gay bills and laws are bigotry , hatred and so is the religious freedom excuse to discriminate against gay people.

Nurse Dani is a paediatric nurse of 16 years in Florida (US), and was forced out of her hospital because she didn't want the Covid "vaccine". In a real pandemic, a hospital does not get rid of its medical staff. She is now unemployed. Think about that for a moment.

How often do you see an entrepreneur's last employer putting equity in their idea? Well, this is exactly what happened with the guest of our today's episode, Shantanu Deshpande, Founder - Bombay Shaving Company.In 2015, when Shantanu decided to dominate the men's grooming space and he was quitting his job at McKinsey, then his peer's and seniors didn't just allow him to leave but decided to back him up with an initial Seed funding.Last year when the country went into lockdown, the company's revenues increased by 3x. One of the interesting driving factors behind this was the women employees at the company. Their perspective was very straightforward: # Problem Statement: During the lockdown, there was a shortage of women's hair removal products and razors. # Opportunity: They were working for a company, which made razors for a living. # Solution: These women employees then decided to coordinate with the product designers, test the product on themselves, put in their inputs, and get their own women's razor out in the market.With this the Bombay Shaving Company, which earlier had 27% women customers buying their products for the men in their life (i.e. partners, father, brother) as a gifting option, now had 50% orders coming in from women with a major share of them buying women's hair removal products. During the podcast, Shantanu shares with us what other tailwinds he leveraged during last year's lockdown, how he believes in enabling his investors to partially exit from the brand from time to time, and how he derives the best value from his large institutional investors. Notes - 01:38 - Growing up in Florida (US) and moving back to India06:50 - Leaving McKinsey & starting Bombay Shaving Company09:18 - “The richest source of information is a conversation with people who are in it all the time.”17:13 - Tailwinds which enabled 3x revenue post-lockdown in Mar'2019:50 - Channel-wise revenue break-up21:47 - Raising initial seed-round from McKinsey23:30 - “My belief was always, that we should never raise money to buy revenues, we should always raise money to build a brand.”26:24 - Core-target metrics since launch30:02 - 3 Crucial things to winning customers early-on33:07 - Enabling exits for early Angel investors39:57 - “Having good organic traffic is a proxy for brand strength.”44:32 - Deriving best value from financial investors
