Your marketing should drive revenue,
not just traffic.

I help startups and B2B companies build marketing systems that turn spend into pipeline — using AI-powered strategy and 15 years of hands-on execution. No fluff. No vanity metrics.

The problem

Sound familiar?

Spending without earning

You're investing in marketing every month but can't draw a straight line from that spend to revenue. Dashboards show clicks. Your bank account tells a different story.

Activity without architecture

Your team is posting, emailing, running ads — but there's no strategy connecting any of it to growth. Activity without architecture is just noise.

AI confusion

Every tool claims to be AI-powered. None come with a strategy. You know AI could transform your marketing, but you don't know where to start.

You don't need another agency delivering reports full of green arrows. You need a strategic partner who thinks like a CMO, operates like a data scientist, and is obsessed with your revenue.

Your fractional CMO

I'm Chandan Thakur.

Over 15 years, I've built marketing systems across FMCG, technology, and B2B — from strategy to execution. I hold an AI for Business certification from Wharton and management training from IIM Calcutta and XLRI.

I don't run an agency. When you work with me, you get me — my experience, my strategy, my accountability.

Questions

Common questions

An agency executes campaigns. I lead your marketing function. I'm measured on your revenue growth — not deliverables. I set strategy, manage vendors, build teams, and connect everything to pipeline.

Absolutely. Many of my engagements start before a team exists. I build the strategy, set up the systems, and help you hire the right people when it's time.

Technology, SaaS, B2B services, FMCG, and e-commerce. The A.I.M. Framework is industry-agnostic — it adapts to your market and business model.

Strategic clarity in 30 days. Pipeline impact in 60-90 days. Revenue impact within 4-6 months. This isn't a quick hack — it's a system that compounds.

When someone asks ChatGPT or Perplexity 'Who is the best marketing consultant for startups?', your name should come up. I build the content, authority signals, and structure that makes AI systems cite you.
