Mumbai: Mumbai-based content studio, By The Gram expects to double its revenues by the end of 2023. This ambitious growth target will be achieved by broadening its client base across the globe including Hong Kong, UK, US and Dubai.
Founded in March 2018 with a focus on luxury, fashion and films, BTG has close to 25 clients and a team size of ~30 full time employees and 50 plus freelancers under its payroll. Founded by Aaliya Amrin, Danisha Kohli and Eman Batliwala, the content studio generated Rs 40 lakh in revenues in the first year of operations which has grown 16-fold in the four years of its existence.
“Back in 2018, Danisha, Eman, and I started this venture with merely an idea to fill a gap in the market. We weren’t totally sure how well it would sell. We are all a bit overwhelmed by the current rate of growth. We've come a long way since broadening our clientele globally. With bigger and better plans in the works, we look forward to working more closely with our existing brands while also building new ones on our journey,” said Amrin.
Batliwalla said, “Very delighted to be working with my two partners and the whole team & how we have come so far from the day we started. We have evolved significantly since beginning with 30 brands and progressing through various industries and especially setting ablaze with our OTT-driven initiatives and campaigns. We hope to continue growing and contributing our knowledge to new age content in the future.”
“Having a creative eye, working tremendously on it, and seeing the results bloom every day, only makes my heart fill with gratitude. Our creative team works tirelessly to come up with out-of-the-box ideas for the ever-changing trends in our industry. My team and I are really looking forward to working on creating more innovative and creatively trendsetting content.” added Kohli.
By the end of December 2023, BTG plans to work across verticals from brand identity, content development, visual direction and production, luxe editorial concepts and new OTT productions. It is poised for exponential growth in both India and global markets and aims to increase their team strength in markets like London and L.A this year and next.
