Thanks for being here : )

I’m Nihal - #TheSaaSGuy 😎

So much in love with SaaS that I end up bringing every conversation to SaaS products. Sometimes also convince you on purchasing few (lol just kidding)😂😂

The best thing I can do for your business is execute GTM strategies 🚀 with no fluffy ideas; keeping it real and straightforward

Throughout my career, I’ve taken initiatives to set marketing operations in the right direction (of course channeling it towards ROI), whether it is taking a leadership role or handling multiple projects/clients at the same time, I don't leave any stone unturned.

The 2 Mantras I follow in my Day to Day life to make things work

Listen More from your customers.
Know More about your product.

According to me, Marketing is a mix of science 🔬 and art 🎨

Therefore you can see an innovative storyteller 🧞 with a data-driven approach in me while brainstorming for marketing plans.

I am best at understanding the user requirements/inputs and giving them a tailor-made solution based on their buyer’s persona or ideal customer profile.

I love to solve problems of real business in a competitive market.

Things I’m Updating on Day to Day Basis

In my current role at Gallabox, I've been executing new SaaS product launches, setting up GTM strategies, event marketing, and fostering a community centered around shared values rather than mere sales.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."

"eChai is playing biggest role in my personal and professional life together. Its a community where i meet like minded people to share idea and learn from their idea. Even while playing cricket i learn something and i implement something new from that learning. Its my entry point for building network in different countries where my base is not established yet. Personally my only fun activity day in a week is eChai cricket and social."

"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.
