The most irrational belief Indian founders have, but still end up winning big: "Weโll figure out monetization laterโ Sounds crazy. But itโs worked more than once Hereโs how ๐ โข Founders chase users like their life depends on it โข They burn cash without a clear way to make it back โข Everyone says itโs unsustainable โข And yetโฆ some of the biggest Indian startups did exactly this โข Paytm started with free mobile recharges โข No revenue, no clear planโjust explosive user growth โข That user base became the foundation for wallets, UPI, tickets, loans โข Distribution first, monetization later โข ShareChat focused on regional users no one else cared about โข Content in Indian languages, memes, status videos โข No monetization for years โข But now they own an audience no one else can easily reach โข KukuFM paid to get users from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities โข Most werenโt paying anything โข But the bet? Own audio in Bharat before anyone else โข Build habits now, monetize once people are hooked Why does this sometimes work in India? โข The market is huge, so even small % conversions add up โข Cost of building is still relatively low โข People donโt pay in the beginningโbut habits stick โข Once youโre inside the userโs daily routine, youโve got leverage โข Not every startup can survive this phase โข But the ones that do, win big when the money finally clicks โข Itโs high risk, high patienceโbut high reward In India, โWeโll figure out monetization laterโ isnโt always foolish Sometimes, itโs just bold timing that pays off, 'sometimes' not everytime..
