"The aim of marketing is to know and understand the customer so well that the product or service fits him and sells itself." Peter Drucker I read that line as an Economics student. Then I tried to prove it with real customers and real orders. I started with a brand of my own. Craftyy Closett was handmade resin jewellery, and I ran it alone: pricing, content, packing, every DM. When orders stalled, I didn't boost a post. I tied an incentive to a ₹500 spend threshold, and orders went from 3 to 14 in 48 hours. That's demand theory, tested on real customers. Then I did it at scale. At Smytten, I screened 12,000+ creator profiles to find voices audiences actually trust. I took Pinterest to 3M+ impressions, grew Quora views from under 50 to 928+, and delivered a 3% CRM CTR, above benchmark. I tracked 15 brand partners in one Excel dashboard so every decision had numbers behind it. How I think: → Creator: whose audience trusts them, not who has the most followers → Brand: what the product should mean before it asks anyone to buy → Category: how price, range and demand fit together → CRM and growth: what makes a customer come back after the first order Economics gave me the questions and marketing gave me the experiments. I'm now looking for a team where both are useful. Looking for: Influencer Marketing, CRM, Category and Brand roles. I'm also open to People & HR roles where communication and data meet. 📍 Bengaluru | Open to relocating across India ⚡ Available immediately 📩 kankanabasu03@gmail.com
