Ravi Mani - Head Of Business, SaaS Mate

Ravi Mani

Head Of Business, SaaS Mate

I’m passionate about business, technology, consulting and sales. I love to understand customer challenges and solve them with technology.

For over 13 years, I've been on a journey to bring innovation and value to customers. My day begins and ends with one thought – how can I create, support, and motivate teams to build new platforms and technologies that empower our customers?

I'm on a mission to lead and grow organizations, and have come a long way from my humble beginnings as a tech support engineer. I've had the privilege of wearing many hats throughout my career, from tech support to sales, product management, and strategy.

I create, scale and optimize product/business portfolios that matter. To accomplish this, I focus on delivering key outcomes, building amazing teams and quickly adapting to new learnings.

My personal and professional experiences have taught me the following about myself:

- I put the customer at the center of all that I do
- I enjoy meeting new people and hearing new perspectives
- I excel at the execution with given constraints
- I stay calm when faced with adversity
- I can align, lead and grow cross-functional teams
- Helping the team win gives me greater joy
- I speak tech and sales
- I tell great narratives that motivate
- I educate, refine and drive myself to be a better person
- I am constantly learning

More stories on eChai

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"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."

"The eChai platform has been super valuable for me - it has helped me gain a deeper understanding of domains in the startup and tech ecosystem. What stands out most is the celebration of knowledge, professional growth, and entrepreneurship - it’s one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, I’ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."

"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."
