“When Nilay came on board, our UK client base was a fraction of what it is today. Just over a year later we have grown that client base by over 300%, and Nilay's contribution to that trajectory has been central. He didn't just generate leads, he generated the right leads.”

Fractional Growth Marketing Consultant · Strategy + Execution Partner · Growth Marketing Educator · Startup Mentor
I am a growth marketing consultant and an educator. Half of my week goes into running paid media for B2B startups and scaleups. The other half goes into teaching it.
On the client side I build Google, LinkedIn and Meta programs wired to attribution and judged on pipeline, not clicks. That work includes a $21.5M closed-won revenue engine for OPLOG across Turkey, the UK and Germany, $842K of qualified pipeline from $20K of Google Ads spend at QuantHub, an enterprise pipeline built from nothing at Meilisearch, and a 66% CAC reduction at Forty Forty. Before consulting I ran multi-channel acquisition at Respond.io on budgets above $100K a month across North America, LATAM, EMEA and APAC.
The model is deliberately small. You work with me directly: the person who scopes the account is the person who builds it, runs it and sits in the reporting review. No junior handoffs and no account-management layer.
The teaching half started on GrowthMentor, where I hold Midas rank with 200+ reviews from founders and operators at companies including Motorola Solutions, Datassential, Reward Gateway and Exponential-e. I mentor at Google for Startups, at Founder Institute across the USA and South East Asia, and at Ignyte UAE, and I have spoken at TEDxMaitreyiCollege.
What people tend to say about those sessions is not that they got an answer, but that the mechanics finally made sense. That is the idea behind LoopEd AI, which I co-founded: a simulator where marketers build real campaigns, run them against a live auction, and learn the craft before any budget is at stake. We are taking it to universities, accelerators and workshops.

“The quality of inbound and outbound pipeline he built means our sales team spends its time converting genuine opportunities rather than chasing dead ends. That distinction matters enormously in a complex, consultative B2B sales environment.”
“What sets Nilay apart is his ability to think commercially, not just creatively. He understands what good looks like for a revenue team. He speaks the language of pipeline, conversion, and customer quality, and shapes his strategy accordingly.”
“Nilay set up an entire performance ads initiative for us at Meilisearch, end to end. Running the campaigns was only one part of it. He took full ownership of the infrastructure and reporting: connecting our paid data to HubSpot, building dashboards that track LTV and payback over time, and benchmarking our pipeline against industry standards.”
“Nilay shows up to meetings already a step ahead, asks good questions, and flags things before they become problems. With that level of ownership and proactivity, it genuinely felt like having a full-time in-house performance specialist.”
“Nilay managed multi-channel acquisition across Google, Meta, LinkedIn, and Bing on a monthly ad budget of over US$100K, targeting North America, LATAM, EMEA, and APAC. Under his leadership we saw a 50% drop in CPL, a 35% reduction in CAC, and a 7% Sales-Accepted-Lead rate for paid search: some of the strongest results our team has seen.”
“What sets Nilay apart is his commitment to experimentation. He led high-impact A/B tests, including a full-funnel redesign of our Book a Demo page, LinkedIn manual bidding experiments that improved campaign efficiency, and Bing Ads experiments for WhatsApp API campaigns that identified cost-effective channels.”
“Nilay authored multiple Acquisition Impact Reports and played a central role in aligning HubSpot and Dreamdata reporting, bridging gaps that improved our marketing decision-making. He brings value through execution and elevates the teams around him.”
“What really sets Nilay apart is his ability to think outside the box, constantly testing new ideas and strategies that push our campaigns forward. His efforts have directly improved our ROI on ad spend, making a measurable impact on our overall performance.”
“Nilay is incredibly helpful and proactive, often anticipating needs before they arise and bringing thoughtful solutions to the table. He is highly dependable, delivering on time and maintaining clear communication throughout.”
“Nilay is the kind of team member every company says they want but rarely finds: a true Swiss army knife, problem-solver, quick learner, with total ownership mentality. If you need someone who can wear multiple hats and get things done, he's that person.”
“Nilay was the first marketing professional to join our team, and he brought exactly the growth and hustling mindset we look for. He helped streamline our email marketing strategy and took the initiative to build new product marketing and sales channels. We started our B2B leads funnel off the back of those initiatives.”
“I came to Nilay for a second opinion on a long-running Google Ads account where lead volume and quality had dropped and CPL had risen significantly. He cut straight through the noise: he identified trends, flagged campaign-level performance differences, and suggested targeted experiments such as removing CPA bidding on select campaigns, testing informational exact match keywords, and optimizing device targeting.”
“What I appreciated most was how quickly he got to the heart of the matter, without fluff. His guidance shaped a clear plan I could begin implementing immediately. If you need someone to cut through the data and give you actionable, strategic advice on Google Ads, Nilay is your guy.”
“We did a detailed walkthrough of a Google Ads account, and Nilay was incredibly articulate throughout, clearly explaining his line of thinking so I could follow along. He pointed out what mattered and why, identified areas for improvement, and mapped out quick wins I could implement right away alongside a longer-term roadmap.”
“Before this session I had spent hours gathering perspectives from YouTube experts, reading articles, and using ChatGPT to piece things together. In less than 30 minutes, Nilay cut through all of that noise. He connected technical detail back to business impact and simplified complex concepts into clear next steps.”
“In our second session he built on the principles from the first, which compounded my learning. What stood out was how he helped me zoom out and think holistically about the purpose of running ads from the user's perspective.”
“Nilay went through every detail of my Google Ads account and told me exactly what could be broken, what to tweak, and what to watch next. Ten out of ten, I would call again before panicking.”
“This is not the first time Nilay has helped me with advertising, and each session he surfaces ideas I would never have thought of. If you are looking for ad support and ad strategy brainstorming, Nilay is your man.”
“I came into the call looking for insights on how AI is affecting discoverability, and left with a masterclass in performance marketing. Not in a 'run more ads' way, but in how he ties browser behavior, intent signals, and persona pain points into a system that actually converts. His breakdown of how to make Google Ads work harder and smarter was clearly from the trenches.”
“Nilay patiently reviewed our rudimentary Google Ads campaign and systematically broke down everything I could improve. He has an exceptional ability to explain and teach, and he demystified what seemed like a jumbled ball of metrics. I left with clarity and confidence.”
“On our second call he did a deep dive on our ad spend metrics and suggested multiple changes. His suggestions from the first call were already impactful: they helped get our new app off the ground and drove meaningful traffic that is now helping us refine how the app works.”
“Nilay went over my Google Ads account, explained conversions and goals, and reviewed our Tag Manager setup. I will be booking follow-up calls with him any time I have a question on Meta or Google Ads.”

“An excellent session. I particularly valued his insights into automation and how to build a smart system for LinkedIn outreach.”

He proposed alternatives and was honest about which would not be effective. His recommendations were actionable, simple to follow, and quantifiable.”
“Nilay is extremely knowledgeable in B2B email marketing. He gave me a comprehensive overview of what to do and what to account for when starting out with email sequences.”

“He helped me not only resolve the immediate challenge but build a clear framework and repeatable process I can apply to different priorities across the business. He came ready with examples, links, and templates.”
“Nilay gave me very specific advice on testing my product, outreach, positioning, and finding new customers. What stood out was how quickly he understood how to position my product in a market with much bigger competitors. He also told me what not to do and why, which was even more valuable.”
“Nilay immediately pinpointed where my proposal to a client missed the mark, sharing tangible examples of where he had made the same mistake.
