How Backstage With Millionaires Helped Fueler

Two years ago, I was a small-town founder from Agartala, building Fueler with zero funding.

No big network. No press coverage. No one really knew what we were building.

Fueler was just another startup trying to survive and make its place.

Then something unexpected happened.

I got invited to the Backstage With Millionaires podcast in November 2023

Why this podcast mattered so much

At that time, this was only my second visit to Bangalore after almost ten years. Bangalore is where conversations happen. It is where startups get noticed. But for founders like me, breaking into that ecosystem is not easy.

The Backstage With Millionaires team gave me a platform when we were still unknown.

Meeting Caleb Friesen, Pankaj Chauhan, and the BWM team changed everything for Fueler.

They did not treat me like a small town founder. They treated me like a builder with a story worth sharing.

What happened after the podcast

That single podcast episode did more than any paid marketing ever could.

Thousands of people discovered Fueler through that conversation. Founders, professionals, and students heard why we were building Fueler and what problem we were trying to solve.

For the first time, Fueler started getting strong visibility in Bangalore. People started recognizing the brand. Conversations became easier. Trust started building.

It became one of the biggest growth levers for Fueler.

The real power of podcasts

Podcasts build trust at a level ads never can.

• People listen to your journey.
• They understand your intent.
• They connect with the problem you are solving.

That is what Backstage With Millionaires did for Fueler. It helped people understand why we care so deeply about proof of work and fair opportunities.
