In this episode of the Career Slay podcast, I sit down with Varun Jindal, a brand partnerships manager at TikTok, about his career journey in social media. Varun discusses his experience co-founding a South Asian media company, Bollyshake, and the dedication it took to grow an Instagram community of nearly a million followers without any outside funding. We talk about the secret sauce for building a successful social media career including the importance of authenticity and representation, engaging your community, and diversifying your income streams for aspiring entrepreneurs and social media influencers. Varun also shares his perspective on balancing creativity and commerce and his passion to help small businesses and creators navigate the social media landscape.
