• Live Without A Net Episode 50: Suchit Bachalli
    Oct 3 2025

    Suchit Bachalli’s story is one of grit, risk-taking, and relentless resilience.

    In this episode, Suchit shares how a chance July 4th conversation sparked the idea for Unilog, how a risky trip to Pittsburgh led to his first million-dollar deal, and how he navigated bold pivots—from services to SaaS—to grow the company into a 300+ employee operation with a landmark Investcorp acquisition.

    But this conversation goes deeper than business. Suchit reflects on overcoming personal setbacks, the role of mentors who taught him to value “connection over currency,” and why resilience beats brilliance in the entrepreneurial journey. He opens up about the risks that defined his career, the lessons learned from red flags ignored, and the systems that helped him scale.

    Whether you’re an aspiring founder or a seasoned leader, Suchit’s story is a masterclass in perseverance, adaptability, and gratitude.

    Highlights from this episode:

    • The spark that launched Unilog and its evolution into a SaaS leader
    • The power of taking big risks (and what they teach you)
    • Building resilience through setbacks and rejection
    • Why mentorship, cadence, and clarity matter more than “genius”
    • Where B2B commerce and AI are headed next
