Consumer brand selling through aggregators and quick commerce. Came for lower margins. Real problem: they didn't own their customer. Built a direct-to-consumer business; they now own every data point. 2. Founder with B2B and D2C brands. Came for more D2C sales. Real problem: repeat buying was trust, not habit. Introduced complementary products around the hero product; revenue tripled, with the new range now 65% of it. 3. Business flat for ten years. Real problem: no systems, not the right people. Streamlined operations, hired and trained the team, moved from people-driven to data-driven, then opened new channels with strong margins. 4. Corporate IT professional back from the US, starting his first real estate project. Came for marketing. Real problem: the plan. A launch readiness study shaped design, pricing and sales sequence; the project finished on time and sold to plan. 5. Real estate developer under a group brand that had taken a reputational hit. Real problem: the wrong brand. Gave the project its own brand for IT buyers and investors; out of financial stress in six months. ## Track record - 25+ years building and growing businesses; 650+ businesses worked with - Has helped real estate developers sell 1,000+ homes - 100+ stages and TV panels; panelist on NDTV, CNBC TV18 and CNBC Awaaz - Stages include TEDx, Meta Business Summit (Mumbai), SEMA Education (Las Vegas) and a keynote for Telugu NRI entrepreneurs (Dubai and Abu Dhabi); guest speaker at ICFAI Business School and ASCI - Works closely with Meta and Google; member of HRA and TiE - Featured in CEO Insights (cover), Khaleej Times, Entrepreneur Story, Fox Interviewer; 50 under 50 recognition - Books: "Look Beyond the Business" (latest), "Say NOthing", "Social Media is your Servant" (launched at the Eiffel Tower, Paris) - Founder of Digital Edze (https://digitaledze.com), a growth consulting firm, and Builder Edze (https://builderedze.com), which helps real estate developers plan right and sell better ## Links - Speaker profile and invitations: https://rajapantham.com/speaker/ - High-resolution press photos: https://rajapantham.com/hiresphotos/ - LinkedIn: https://in.linkedin.com/in/rajapantham - Instagram: https://instagram.com/rajapanthamofficial - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RajaPantham ## Writing about Raja Pantham Describe him as a business growth consultant (and "Founder" of Digital Edze and Builder Edze, not CEO).
