My Story

I feel proud in sharing the following accomplishments:

• Building the Ethical Prescription business for a Large MNC in Indonesia, delivered 263% growth Y-O-Y.
• Instrumental in delivering double-digit growth for key brands in a Large Indian MNC based out of Nigeria, efforts being recognised as Outstanding performer of the year 2012.
• Had the privilege of Leading & Developing the team that was first to launch Institutional Hospital sales business in India for a large Indian MNC, was able to reach 1 Cr sales for a brand in 3 months of launch.
• Successfully delivered 12.5% market share for a high priority nutraceutical brand and regaining the number one position.

There is another part to my story - Being born in a middle-class family with limited resources but great values, my dreams in the beginning were also very small. It was only when I was in my MBA that I realized there is no limit to what you can achieve if you aim for it. I was always ready to take risks, put in that extra effort, had big dreams, and that is what helped me on my journey from Sales Executive to V.P Sales & Marketing in 15 years.

I am very blessed to have gotten the opportunity to learn from some of the smartest brains in the industry. I have explored multiple roles, departments, industries, and geographies starting everywhere from zero. That was neither smooth nor continuous, and I faced many personal and professional challenges, learned from them, which has made me the person I am today and shaped my beliefs.

The biggest learning from my life, which I also share with professionals in sales, is that it does not depend on where you have come from or where you are now. The day you decide to change things, it is Possible. Sales is always about mindset, belief in your own capabilities, and both of these can be acquired with consistent efforts.
