CA Rachana Ranade, a YouTuber and a former professor, has been making fast bucks via her online sessions. The Pune based internet sensation has been growing steadily ever since she first started her journey on the video-sharing platform. Her subscriber base has been broadened to a whopping 2.16 million.
There is no doubt that such a feat can only be achieved only through a blend of resilience and smartness. Ranade chose to spread knowledge about the subject she knew better, the stock market. Still, an untapped zone, the simplification of jargons made Ranade’s YouTube channel stand out from the pile.
A lecturer by profession and a social-media sensation, Rachana Ranade uploaded her video on “Basics of Stock Market” on YouTube in 2019 when a few of her college students weren’t in a position to attend the class. The video went viral and altered her life for good. While it was not her first video, it did open up avenues for recognition,
Such was the excellence of her lectures that the entire series of her stock market explainer soon turned into a full-fledged course. She developed similar courses and later monetised them on her own website to make the most out of it financially.
A Chartered Accountant, Bachelor in Commerce (BCom), Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) & Master in Business Studies (MBS), Ranade’s portfolio has grown immensely since 2015 when she first started her YouTube channel.
