Sanjiv Rajan, a 35-year-old podcaster from Mumbai, always dreamed of turning his passion for storytelling into a thriving podcast channel. Despite his talent for engaging conversations and intriguing topics, Sanjiv's YouTube channel, The Rajan Chronicles, struggled to gain traction. With just 250,000 subscribers and an average of 380000 views per episode, Sanjiv knew he needed a game-changer. That’s when he discovered Vshorts AI.

Challenge: Lack of Reach and Engagement

Sanjiv’s podcast episodes averaged 45 minutes, filled with valuable content. However, these long episodes weren't appealing to audiences with shorter attention spans. He also found it difficult to create promotional clips for platforms like YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and TikTok due to his limited time and video editing expertise.
