I help founders build brands people remember, and businesses that deliver.

I trained as a CA at EY, then spent 13 years building Being Champion from Jaipur into a B2B brand trusted by 500+ organisations. Now I share what worked, and what didn't, with founders building theirs.

Credentials

A finance mind that learnt brand building on the shop floor.

Your brand isn't your logo. It's what people experience when they deal with you.

I started my career as a Chartered Accountant at EY. In April 2013 I started Being Champion with sports jerseys. In 2016 I shut our direct-to-consumer side to focus fully on business buyers, and we grew into corporate uniforms, joining kits, promotional merchandise and corporate gifting.

The lesson that stayed with me: customers forget your colours. They remember whether the quotation came on time, whether the order arrived on the promised date, and how your team spoke to them.

Chartered Accountant

Trained in finance, so pricing, margins and cash flow sit inside every brand decision I advise on.

Ex-EY

Started my career at EY, which is where I learnt process, documentation and working with large companies.

Founder & CEO

Being Champion Apparels Pvt. Ltd., built and run since 2013. B2B corporate uniforms, joining kits and gifting.

Systems builder

    Go Brand & Build

    Sharing what I've learnt with founders, twice a week.

How I look at a brand

Every brand I look at, my own included, gets three tests.

01

Visible

Do the right people actually see you, and often enough to remember?

02

Memorable

When they need what you sell, does your name come first in their mind?

03

Valuable

Will they pay a little more for you instead of the cheaper option?

Working with founders

If something feels off with how the market sees you, let's talk.

I work with founders and their teams on the three places where most growing companies get stuck. It usually starts with one honest conversation about where you are and what isn't working.

Brand

Positioning people remember

Who you're really for, and why a buyer should pick you over the cheaper option.

  • Positioning and message
  • Proof points and trust signals
  • Online presence review
Sales

Selling like an advisor

Moving from sending quotations to having conversations, with pricing you can hold.

  • Pricing and margin logic
  • Sales conversation design
  • Ideal customer profile
Operations

Systems that don't need heroes

Simple SOPs and visible status, so delivery doesn't depend on one person staying late.

  • SOPs and checklists
  • Department trackers and MIS
  • Order-to-delivery flow
