Senior marketing consulting for US-headquartered brands.
Past US work spans direct campaigns for the world's largest baby-care brand owned by a Cincinnati-headquartered FMCG conglomerate (Hispanic-market repositioning) via a Switzerland-based loyalty platform, founding-team marketing for India's largest baby & kids products e-commerce platform, and a two-year on-site tenure with the world's largest business-machines-to-enterprise-software giant at its Phoenix, AZ deployment for an American Express Cards programme. The US operating discipline is in muscle memory.
US marketing leaders need senior judgement at fractional rates.
US Series A-to-Series C scale-ups can't justify a $400K full-time CMO; their Tier-1 agencies aren't built for operator work; and the fractional-CMO market in the US, while large, is dominated by people who've never run a marketing function across multiple geographies. India-based senior consulting fills that gap structurally — premium operator experience at fractional engagement size, with the time-zone overlap that makes async-first viable.
How I help
What you get
01
Hispanic-market and multicultural
Direct campaign-level work on the world's largest baby-care brand owned by a Cincinnati-headquartered FMCG conglomerate for Hispanic-American markets via a Switzerland-based global loyalty platform. Cultural-cohort calibration that respected language register, audience-specific category insights, and integrated TV / digital / retail / earned campaigns. Multi-region brand architecture.
02
D2C founding-team experience
On the founding team of India's largest baby & kids products e-commerce platform — set up content, photography standards, retail-plus-online concept, vendor B2B network, initial campaigns. The early-stage US D2C founder pattern is the same; the maths-first methodology applies.
03
Enterprise software and B2B
Two-year on-site tenure at the world's largest business-machines-to-enterprise-software giant's Phoenix, AZ centre on an American Express Cards programme as Test Lead. The enterprise software operating culture, the Fortune 500 vendor management discipline, and the US client-services standard are internalised.
04
Time-zone overlap that works
