Marketing strategist & brand builder

Strategy that sounds as good as it performs.

I help founders and brands turn attention into revenue — through positioning, campaigns, influencer partnerships, and the occasional original song. No playbooks. No filler.

About

I don't sell campaigns. I solve growth problems — and I happen to be fluent in strategy, culture, and music.

"Good marketing gets attention. Good strategy keeps it. I care about the second part."

My work sits at the intersection of business strategy and creative execution. I've spent my career moving between boardroom decisions — positioning, pricing, go-to-market — and the creative work that brings them to life: campaigns, creator partnerships, ad concepts, and brand music.

That combination is deliberate. Most strategists can't execute. Most creatives don't think in business outcomes. I do both, which means the plans I build are ones I can actually ship — and the campaigns I ship are built on a plan.

I work with founders who are building something they care about, and I bring the same standard music brings me: everything has to move, and nothing gets to be filler.

Early career

Why work with me

Strategy and creative, from the same head.

Strategy-first

Every campaign starts with a business question, not a creative brief. If the strategy doesn't hold up, the creative doesn't ship.

I execute, not just advise

You get a strategist who has run the campaign, negotiated the deal, and sat in the edit — not just written the deck.

Music inside marketing

Sound is one of the most under-used tools in branding. I bring original music into campaigns where it earns its place.

An active creator network

Years of sourcing and negotiating with creators means faster, better-matched partnerships — not a cold outreach list.

Founder mindset

I think about runway, not just reach. Every recommendation is weighed against what it costs you to get there.

Built for both stages

Whether you're naming your pricing tiers for the first time or scaling a proven channel, the approach adapts to where you are.

Testimonials

What it's like to work together

"Anirban gave us a positioning we actually believed in — and then he built the campaign to prove it. That combination is rare."

Founder, D2C consumer brand

"He runs influencer campaigns the way a media buyer runs ad spend — every creator earns their place. Our best-performing quarter yet."

Head of Marketing, fintech startup

"The brand song wasn't a gimmick — it became the thing people associated with our launch. I didn't expect that from a marketing engagement."

CMO, consumer app

"As a mentor, he's direct in a way that actually helps. I walked out of our sessions with a plan, not just encouragement."

FAQ

Common questions

Mostly founders and marketing teams at startups and growing brands, plus a handful of agencies and individual creators. If you're solving a real growth problem, it's worth a conversation.

Both. Strategy engagements are usually project-based with a defined scope; ongoing marketing or campaign work is typically a monthly retainer. We'll figure out the right shape on the call.

Both — that's the point. I can hand off a strategy document to your team, or stay involved through campaign execution, creator negotiations, and creative production.

Original music works best tied to a specific moment — a launch, a campaign, a brand refresh — rather than as a standalone asset. We'd scope it as part of a broader campaign strategy.
