Why these conversations matter
A business podcast.
A human conversation.
Ras Al Khaimah · Different industries · Shared experience
What happens between starting a business and knowing how to run it?
RAK & ROLL brings together people building businesses in Ras Al Khaimah and across the UAE. Hosted and produced independently by Kaan Bozoglu, the podcast explores the decisions behind the work: finding customers, setting prices, learning a market and changing direction when an idea does not work.
These are conversations, not sales pitches or business promotions. A guest can explain what they do, but we spend time on the experience behind it. What surprised them? Which assumptions changed? What would they do differently?
If you run a business, are starting one or want to understand working life in Ras Al Khaimah, these conversations offer practical experiences and different perspectives.
The industry changes. A story from hospitality, manufacturing, property or a creative business can raise a useful question for someone working in another field. We also make room for moving countries, building friendships and finding a life outside work in Ras Al Khaimah.
Get to know the show ↗What happens in the chair
Business without
the brochure.
We follow the story, from the work itself
to the life around it.
How the business
really works
How do the first customers arrive? How do pricing, cash flow and difficult decisions change as a business grows? We ask about the work behind the introduction.
Marketing that
earns its keep
Referrals, relationships, positioning and digital marketing. We talk about what brought enquiries, what fell flat and why a busy social account does not tell the whole story.
Building
in Ras Al Khaimah
Doing business in RAK brings its own relationships, expectations and opportunities. Guests share what they had to learn about the UAE and what newcomers can miss.
The
human part
Moving countries, making friends, changing priorities and life outside work. The person in the chair has a life beyond their business, and that belongs in the conversation too.
