Bose said, “Over time and managing various categories and roles, Namit possesses a rare combination of fluid and strategic acumen in seeking and owning solutions that impact business growth. He is a great fit in our team of explorer-strategists, missioned to find the sweet spot between consumer need gaps X technology X clients’ business growth. I am looking forward to working with him and adding fresh spark to the agency’s entrepreneurial DNA.”
Across his professional stint, Prasad has had the opportunity to work on leading entrepreneurial and MNC brands, especially from Ahmedabad to Mumbai. Along the way, he got to be a part of some impactful work for brands like Paras, Zydus, Century Ply, Symphony, Unilever, P&G, Park Avenue, SBI Digital Banking, Baggit and Nestle among many others.
Prasad said, “As an enterprise builder myself, L&K Saatchi & Saatchi’s business focus - closely working with brands with an entrepreneurial mindset and contributing to growth beyond just communication - interested me hugely. Add to this Paritosh and Snehasis’s ambition and passion.”
He further said, “With my kind of experience, I hope to bring in a bit of ‘Baniya Branding’ mentality, wherein all branding efforts are tightly aligned to business objectives. While of course ensuring creative flair and the inventive possibilities of integration.”
Besides planning, Prasad also briefly got the opportunity to experience brand development on the brand side, while working as Insight Lead at Aditya Birla Finance. Here he familiarised himself with the rigours of insight work and the process of marketing decision-making.
