The podcast currently has 61 episodes available.
Hey ladies and gentlemen,
I hope you, your family members and your loved ones are having a great time. We, at Digital Dukaandaar are high in energy and spirits as well. Through this episode, I want to share with you what’s going on with us right now and what’s next with the podcast.
I started The Nishkarsh Sharma Show over a year ago as a fun project and it eventually became an indispensable part of Digital Dukaandaar and particularly ME. We have done so many episodes and I am really happy that you have showered your love on this show through over 21k downloads. Having completed one year talking to you over various topics including ecom, dropshipping, brand building, mindset, health and welness, I have decided to take this podcast in a particular direction where it becomes more specialized and undirectional.
I don’t want to create content just for the sake of doing it. That is why I have decided that for the next couple months I will be working to explore the idea of the next set of episodes. My idea is to keep doing this to add actual value to your lives.
The next set of episodes are gonna be about branding, building ecom brands only, but more than dropshipping we are gonna be talking about building real brands and I plan on speaking about that myself one on one through the podcast. We plan to invite other ecom brand owners where they share their brand stories, tell us abt their brands and what helped them grow because I think the present and future of ecom is all about branding. And Brand Building is the future I see for The Nishkarsh Sharma Show and that is the direction in which the podcast should go.
So, when do we resume the podcast? In couple of months.
We can start right away but we have started Kalmin Ross recently and there are some systems and processes that I am building to enhance efficiency. Since Kalmin Ross is in its nascent stage, this phase is super important for the growth and longevity of the brand and that is why I intend to dedicate more time for systematizing things for Kalmin Ross.
Whenever we resume the podcast, we would be super consistent by coming up with a new episode every single week. We are proud of the consistency the show has had and wish to maintain it and for that we need to do this in a very planned way. That is why I wish to resume it when I know that I can dedicate proper time, effort, energy and focus to continue contributing towards the betterment of my community, continue sharing value with you, continue inviting awesome people and continue helping you guys level up your e-com businesses or your brands.
So, to keep yourself tuned with any updates regarding the podcast, please follow the Instagram page of The Nishkarsh Sharma Show and my Instagram profile.
Thank you so much for being a patient listener. I can’t wait for you to listen to the next set of episodes which would be pretty pretty soon.
Love and Care,
Nishkarsh Sharma

I am a very expressive person and I know that. Considering my over-expressive nature, I always wanted to share my brand name with you but I haven’t been able to. Finally, this is the right time when I am going to share how I started my own brand that I am really proud of.
I have been doing dropshipping for some time now but I haven’t been able to share my store names with you for obvious reasons. I always wanted to build something that I could share with you guys, something which was not just about winning products or winning designs. And finally, my team and I have been able to build our own brand. In this episode of the podcast, I speak to you about the new clothing brand that I have launched.

Hey guys,
A very warm welcome to you to The Nishkarsh Sharma Show. I, on behalf of the entire Digital Dukaandaar team, would like to thank you for finding value in our work and for choosing to listen to us.
We have recorded around 60 podcasts till date and it can get really overwhelming to see so many episodes and not know where to start from. So, I have specifically recorded this to give you some direction as to how to go about the podcast and the kind of episodes you should be listening to based on what you want to learn, what you want to improve or uplevel yourself in. You don’t need to start from episode 1 altogether.
For someone who wants to start, grow or scale one’s ecom business and want to learn more about ecommerce, all episodes from episode 26 to the last one are related to ecom. After episode 26, 99% of these are related to ecom.
For someone who wants to uplevel one’s mindset, is a self development fanatic or wishes to continue improving oneself to make more money, become more successful or lead a happy life, episodes 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20, 24, 27, 28, 30, 32, 36 and 52 are meant for you.
If you are a teenager, I would highly recommend you to listen to episode 1 and 10
If you wish to increase your productivity, improve time management by getting more done in less time, episodes 2, 3, 5 and 21 would serve you best.
AIf you wish to improve your love life and relationships, episodes 16,17 and 18 are specifically meant for you.
If you wish to grow your business overall, episodes 4, 9, 22, 23, 25 and 47 would be really meaningful to you.
The idea behind organizing the entire podcast is to help you choose what you wish to listen to and to help grow your business while adding value to your personal as well as professional life.
Love and Care,
Nishkarsh Sharma
