What exactly do you do?
Although my card reads QuizMaster & Head-Content, I am the Co-founder of QuizWorks, currently heading QW in Mumbai..
QuizWorks specializes in research, production and hosting of customised quiz shows for both the industry and academia.
We use Quizzing as a tool for Branding, Engagement & Learning..
Why do you do what you do? Is it to make money, to become famous, to retire, to kill boredom ?
PASSION is our middle name. Money, fame and retirement will come in due course! 🙂
Is there anything unique in what you do? And here ‘unique’ can mean anything – doing what’s been done for donkeys years and yet in a more cost efficient manner, or something new in a boring business or line or simply inventing something completely new?
Yes, we are the first corporatized Quizzing company and we believe in using quizzing as a tool to achieve different corporate motives – like branding, marketing, employee engagement rather than just a game for Nerds!
What happens if this fails?
This is a niche business which requires expertise and cannot be easily replicated. We have done well so far, the next leap will be even more fruitful I am sure 🙂
Any one or two incidents that make you shiver or feel proud of your journey so far?
Although, We reach over 10,000 students (school and college) a year, mostly in the cities, we do quite a bit of work in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities too. One of the winners of our quiz in a village in Karnataka went on to join one of the IITs and called to thank me as he believed the quiz victory was the turning point of his life which triggered a confidence boost.
This literally gave me Goosebumps!!
State one really bad habit and one good habit (if you actually have one)
Interestingly one habit of mine fits both the brackets!!
Incessant travelling – Cuts me off family & friends (Bad) but Great Learning Experiences (Good)
Famous last words to the readers?
I believe Quiz Works!!
