I'm a marketing and retail professional in the footwear and FMCG space, based in Ghaziabad and working across India's price-sensitive market. I spend my days at the counter — watching how variety, brand and conversation actually move a sale — and my evenings testing what AI tools can do for everyday marketing work.
