Welcome to the August edition of our Member Spotlight Series, celebrating the people who make the Populii community what it is. Each feature highlights a standout member whose active participation, thoughtful contributions and engagement across the community helps bring our network to life.
We are absolutely loving getting to know our members beyond their profiles and hope you are too!
I’m from Mangalore which is located in the South Western coast of India. It’s known as the 'Rome of the East’s’ and also the ice-cream capital of India. We also have some really beautiful beaches and amazing seafood.
Why are you part of the Populii community and why do you do gig work?
I joined Populii to earn some extra income on the side and also to spend my free time doing something productive instead of just doing nothing.
What are you most proud of (either professional or personal)?
I suppose having a good moral compass and living a happy and healthy life.
What advice do you have to share with other freelancers?
Always go through the training material thoroughly and if you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask the team.
We hope showcasing stories like Mandeep’s inspires you to continue growing your journey on Populii too! Want to be featured in a future Member Spotlight? Stay active, share your insights and keep showing up.
Congratulations @MANDEEP.SHETTY and we appreciate your contributions towards Atlas. Mandeep is one of the few ambassadors who brought in quality referrals. For context one of his referrals completed about 7000 POIs.
Congratulations, Mandeep, on being our August Member Spotlight!
Thank you for your continued engagement, valuable contributions, and positive presence within the Populii community. Your efforts are truly appreciated, and this recognition is well deserved. Wishing you continued success!
We have some really great local brands here which created a huge ice-cream culture in the city, making unique sundaes like Gadbad really popular. And also ice-creams are not a seasonal dessert here as it’s pretty hot and humid here for most of the year so people usually consume ice cream throughout the year.
Congratulations, Mandeep! Thank you for your contributions in atlas project. Also, that beach view in the background looks really nice! Wishing you all the very best for your future career and continued success ahead.
