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

🧘🏻‍♂️ Product Positioning

💰Demand Gen
📊Product Adoption

Toys I am fond of :

Email Marketing - Sendgrid, Zoho Mail, MailModo, Mailchimp,
WhatsApp Marketing - Gallabox 😅 (Shameless plug)
CRM - Zoho, Hubspot
Marketing Automation - Zoho, Hubspot

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

It's more than just a network — it's a catalyst for real, collaborative growth. We’re proud to be part of the eChai community.

Co-Founder, DevX

"We found eChai to be a force multiplier throughout our startup journey. Through it, we connected with folks from DevX, Allevents, Plutomen, and more - many of whom became friends of IndiaBizForSale.com and even part of our clientele."

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
