I will once you reply to my email... I sent you a clear directive email with unregulated market and you haven't responded... i know success storied are all we want to talk about... but you are deviating from your own theme why I was your avid listener.....
I would suggest Ritesh Agarwal focus on employee retention rate. what is he thinking about people ? Whenever he wants layoff or hired. Why should great talented people to join OYO? Look at 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 layoff. I can't entirely agree with his strategy. He don't know how to manage things. doing experiments with investors' money. investors are not at all satisfied with his silly discussions. I was oyo from 2019 to 2021. No balance life, no satisfaction. The interesting part is OYO is running because of couples-friendly - 71% revenue share. It distracted Indian culture. He doesn't focus on B2B, Corporate, Travel tourists, long stay.
Dear Ganesh This discussion is worth more than a semester of a business degree. Shall implement key learnings in my organization as well. You are not just an entrepreneur, you are becoming quite a social entrepreneur by bringing such content to the masses !
"Ritesh Agarwal's journey from a young entrepreneur to building OYO into a global brand is truly inspiring! His resilience and vision are a beacon for aspiring entrepreneurs everywhere. Keep shining, Ritesh! 🌟"
The most grounded entrepreneur. No IIT No IIM, still very deep knowledge and deep understanding of the Indian market. Thanks for this wonderful podcast ❤.
We stop trying OYO before a year, bcoz I don't know the situation in the North. But if I book OYO in Chennai or any other cities in Tamilnadu. At Check in Time hotels Simply Reject our Booking, or ask more money. So we know 90-95% OYO Booking is not working as per OYO app mentioned Amount.
@@imabhishekanand Then how they earn revenue. Bcoz some good start-ups are in cash negative. Then how this 85-95% failed booking Startup can even generate money. Same case OLA facing but suddenly they change their path. But I think OYO doen't mind about anything. Even after 2,3 long years.
@@imabhishekanand Yes if that higher price is reasonable then it's okay. But if we have huge luggage. if we are with ladies. So that we have only narrow options . Then hotels can ask for a higher amount due to our situation.
there's a book called whispers of manifestation on borlest , and it talks about how using some secret tehniques you can attract almost everything in life it's not some bullshit law of attraction, it's the real deal
The way oyo operates and does not take any ownership of its customers problems, I hope it goes bankrupt. I have had several instances where they took the money and dennied service on odd hours and the customer care did nothing. They show hotels as listed when the hotel owners deny service saying they had de-registered and no one hears . This company has failed miserably in service and should not be allowed to function based on history of mismanagement. I have such strong feelings because of personal experience and not just 1-2 cases but many many cases personally
Two takes from this comment 1. Video is already divided in to topics, if you see the youtube seek bar. 2. An entrepreneur wouldn't want to cut this interview by any parts. It was as good as watching a good movie.(Depends on every 1's interest).
Lots of trivial epiphanies yet in a profound way. Absolutely stacks of take away from this. Everytime and everything in this channel has been worth time invested so far.
Both have a unique rhythm and tune when they talk. The way each of these men separates their sentences is so calm, quiet and metred. Wish people in Indian parliament learnt talk like these two men.
Prince In Exile 😎💯 Thank You Ganesh Bro There Is A Lot I've Learnt From You ... Thank You Very Much For This Podcast ... I'm Waiting For This Podcast From 2 Months ❤️
Your questions are insane! Also the detail with which ritesh answered the play book, or the processes gives great insight on how to see things! Thanks for doing this! Need a Part 2 very soon! Do it on zoom, thats fine, content matters even if the bacground is just fine!
Im a doctor. No one in my family or me are in any sort of business but here i am, listening to this podcast because of how well spoken Ritesh is! It’s so much fun hearing him talk
This person knows the depth of retail kirana store ,, for the first time I saw someone literally appreciating the nuances of small business. Kirana owners literally close their shop just for two days whole year .. on Diwali and Holi
Yes, he gave very good answer about, CLV/LTV (lifetime value), and in-store placement. In-store placement is a very important factor in gaining customers attention and raise their interest to given a try or buy the product
I have worked in Oyo for 3 years and seen both the pre COVID and post COVID era, a lot of things told on this podcast are not the reality experienced by an employee. Ritesh comes with his unique vision for sure, but is also blind on a million things as well.
OYO is one of the best worst company in India. We have given our building (4 Row houses in Chennai) and they looted us literally and we were in 40 Lakhs loss and OYO damaged our building like anything. All agreements with OYO was wast papers and they won't respect Indian Judiciary and agreements. Guys, MY strong recommendation is don't give your property to OYO on lease purpose at all. OYO managament in Chennai was worst people. Royally OYO cheats Property owners in Day light.
think school is amazing bhaiya , its been 2 years since i subscribed u and its been amazing but the business podcasts they are otherwordly so to say in quality ,depth , value for time and so on . That's why i have a request can u somehow bring subhash choudhary in the next business podcast pls (founder of dukaan). seriously u are gonna love their case
Hey Ganesh, this was a very insightful and in many ways inspiring. Thank you for inviting him and having this conversation. Please do call him back and finish all the questions you had to ask. You are doing a great job and I appreciate it a lot.
This podcast is full of gold nuggets! I'm taking notes on the importance of having your 'ears to the ground,' understanding your ideal customer, and building a strong value system within your company.
Please bring TVF team in ur podcast Its them who taught us the meaning of startup in very entertaining form Might be the inspiration for many startup's coming today
This one podcast had so much business nuances and experiences than most in a day of MBA class session! Additionally since it’s viewed with curiosity and going to be etched forever in the mind unlike a classroom session! Great podcast!
@Ganesh: keep doing the great work by bringing this awesome entrepreneurs and share their journey. Please keep focusing on quality instead of insta reels which makes money by views but there is no motivation and you get nothing out of it. Ritesh is the most down to earth entrepreneur. He found the right path to put his passion on. Some rebels put their energies at wrong path and its hard to be rebel too😅
Another Masterpiece by Think School team. Brought the best out of Ritesh. The home ambience setup did its magic. Ritesh could have gone superficial but he choose not to and deep-dived. Amazing hosting by Ganesh.
When someone asks me what's the recent good movie I watched?, I probably won't mention this video (since everyone's tastes differ), but this video will definitely be in the back of my mind. Thank you Ganesh. Luv Ganesh let ppl to speak unlike others bombarding with questions. The wealth of knowledge Ritesh posses is clearly evident in this interview and its truly impressive.
What a interview man! Loved the insights and the whole episode infact didn't know where the time flew. This one was a interesting podcast #KeepGrindin✊🏼
Ritesh has been excellent storyteller so far and Ganesh hats off to you for a nutshell explanation & interpretation of Air Bnb founders about scaling and a small thought hoteling industry and all their apps are part of service building rather than product building and glad that they hold a share of OYO and I wish/hope to see OYO ingest Airbnb service quality @40:00
This podcast took me back to my old days. During my childhood I used to sit at my dad's shop during summer break and also everyday after my school. I used to look at my dad and copy his way of talking to customers. I used to feel happy every time I managed to sell items and when I used to see the cash box filled with money. I was a little girl and customers used to praise me saying you have a true businessman's spirit. Later due to internal family reasons and financial losses the shop got shut and I went out of my town for higher studies, I started working and completely lost touch with business. The thrill you get when you make money during your childhood is something different. You are innocent yet determined to sell your products with the intent of making money.
Wow! George seems to have very very good understanding of people business culture everything about india in a very shory time. He is such a smart down to earth guy. Respect!
One of the most insightful and engaging podcasts I came across. 2 hrs of quality time invested in exchange for a very intelligent conversation. Thank you Ganesh and Ritesh #thinkschool
Ritesh Agarwal is very humble and down to earth entrepreneur. And here is an interesting fact, we are friends on Facebook before he started his journey
An excellent podcast featuring Ganesh and the founder of OYO, Ritesh. It’s an incredible episode with great insights from Ritesh. I always look forward to the next podcast Ganesh. I love you guys so much ❤
Ganesh, it would be great if you could invite Shlok Shrivastava, also known as TechBurner, to your podcast. His insights would definitely be valuable for us.
Sir thank you so much for getting back to your roots, forgetting political topics for once and bringing back what we really wanted, these business case studies and podcasts that made Think School a channel for me to subscribe to. I missed these contents. Thanks again for getting back to what we loved.
Business and politics are closely bound and nobody can cut the ties To understand business and growth we have to understand right-wing and left-wing politics and their principles coz you cant do business in a country without political parties and governments
Love your videos, bro... Keep rocking... Also please make a video on election results after a week from June 4 so that you get enough time to research and we can know what are the tasks that the government who is going to come into power should do in the next 5 years. Please
Thank you for this insightful conversation Ganesh bro. kindly make a conversation with Deepinder Goyal. I don't want to mention the deep conversation because u always go deep. keep inspire.
really surprised the oyo is still in existence, miniscule number of their branded hotels are seen and even they refuse to take bookings except for some who take bookings on hourly basis for shady customers
Oyo has now become biggest scam. They never return money if you ever make an advance payment for any of your bookings and hotel doesn't respect your booking. Beware of them.
Great podcast on Ritesh Agarwal! Ganesh, could you please share the PDF of your notes from this episode that you write on you pad? We'd love to review them and delve deeper into the insights you provided.
jugadu banda, he doesn't care much about the customer experience, his prime focus is getting things done, and scale 'em, customer satisfaction is last priority for him. Either way in a country like India(where quality is not a priority, cuz of huge popn & low per capita inc), it works for ritesh. Kudos to him for building a unicorn!

That line "dukaan badha k aajao" was really really correct as i also come from a family of small business owner.
Absolutely, I instantly passed that learning to my company executives.
This content is GOLD, good enough to be taught as a Business elective!
Thanks Think School for this insightful interaction with Ritesh Agarwal.
Video quality is becoming better Day by day with all the explanation and all, but a suggestion is that divide the video by topics
Two takes from this comment
1. Video is already divided in to topics, if you see the youtube seek bar.
2. An entrepreneur wouldn't want to cut this interview by any parts. It was as good as watching a good movie.(Depends on every 1's interest).
People like Ritesh & Ganesh Inspires the Young India.
I bet in the Next 10-15 Years, I will build something similar to Thiel Fellowship for India.
Thiel fellowship is not just restricted to profit organisations, keep that in mind
Lots of trivial epiphanies yet in a profound way.
Absolutely stacks of take away from this.
Everytime and everything in this channel has been worth time invested so far.
Both have a unique rhythm and tune when they talk. The way each of these men separates their sentences is so calm, quiet and metred. Wish people in Indian parliament learnt talk like these two men.

Ritesh comes with his unique vision for sure, but is also blind on a million things as well.
this is masterclassnon how to be humble while talking.
I just discovered this channel and podcast. Oh man, where was I until now? He is so perfect and the best!

One of the best podcast so far. Ritesh explained everything in detail even without asking. All the best to his future endeavours.
Absolutely love this podcast.... What a knowledge and experience shared by Ritesh and the questions asked by Ganesh was pin point.. loved it
