Digital marketing consultant · Ahmedabad

Your engineering isn't the problem.

I work with Indian software firms that build genuinely good products and struggle to sell them outside India. Seventeen years, 57+ companies, seven of them from the inside. Engagements from ₹45,000/month.

The problem

Four firms, one website

Open the sites of any four Ahmedabad development companies side by side. Same services list, same promise about scalable cost-effective solutions, same stock photograph of a team pointing at a monitor.

None of it is untrue. All of it is invisible. When a buyer in Chicago or Munich can't tell you apart, the only remaining variable is price — and there is always someone cheaper.

Why this way of buying

Consultant, agency, or hire someone?

All three are reasonable. They are good at different things.

An agency

Hands and volume. You'll be pitched by the senior person and delivered to by someone two years in — agencies have utilisation to fill.

A full-time hire

Dedicated ownership, plus a senior salary, three months to recruit and three more to become useful.

A consultant

The senior person and nothing else. No junior layer, no ramp, no notice period. You buy judgment, not hours.

Why me specifically

I've been the person you'd hire. Seven full-time roles running marketing and sales inside Indian software firms — same size, same market, same problem — before I started advising. I know what your sales team will and won't adopt, and which plans die on contact with delivery pressure.

  • You're pre-revenue and need a co-founder.
  • You want ads run and cost-per-click reported. An agency does that better and cheaper.
  • You want a guarantee of leads by a fixed date. I can't give you one honestly.
  • You're outside software and need deep category knowledge.
  • I'd rather tell you now than three weeks in.

    Process

    No surprises

    01

    A thirty-minute call

    You describe the situation. I tell you whether I can help and roughly what it takes. Free, and genuinely diagnostic.

    02

    A one-page proposal

    Scope, timeline, deliverables, price. One page, because if it needs ten you don't understand what you're buying.

    03

    The work

    Weekly or fortnightly sessions with your team, plus documents you keep and can run without me.

    Formats

    Diagnostic (2–3 weeks) · Project (6–12 weeks) · Virtual CMO (retained, 3-month minimum) · Event representation (per show) · Workshop (one day)

    Pricing

    Engagements start at ₹45,000 per month. Event representation is priced per show and depends on the event and follow-up scope.

    Companies I worked inside

    On working with competitors

    This is a small industry and I've worked across a lot of it. Client strategy, data and pipeline never leave the room, and I'll tell you directly if I think there's a conflict before we start.

    Questions before you book

    How much does a digital marketing consultant cost in Ahmedabad?

    My engagements start at ₹45,000 per month. Virtual CMO retainers and full programmes run higher depending on scope, and event representation is priced per show. Anyone quoting an hourly rate is selling you hours, not judgment.

    Do you work with companies outside Gujarat?

    Yes. Most of my clients are Indian firms selling to the US, UK and Europe, and they're spread across the country. The industry knowledge matters, not the postcode.

    What makes you different from a digital marketing agency in Ahmedabad?

    An agency sells execution capacity. I sell judgment — what should be done and why. I've also run marketing inside seven Indian software companies, so I know what your team will actually adopt.

    Can you guarantee results?

    No, and be careful of anyone who does. I commit to a clear plan, honest reporting, and telling you early if something isn't working.

    How quickly will I see something?

    Positioning work shows up in conversations within weeks. Pipeline changes take a quarter or more. Anyone promising leads in thirty days is selling a spike, not a system.
