Insights is where we write about the specific problems our clients bring us – UK pharmacy and dental compliance, market share erosion that doesn’t show up on a dashboard, what a Fractional CMO retainer actually includes, and how CEOs build institutional visibility without it reading as self-promotion. It’s also where broader marketing thinking lives – general branding and growth topics, notes from talks at BITS Pilani, GIM, CII and other institutions, and updates from Lalit’s upcoming book. Every piece is written by Lalit Saraswat, drawing on active client engagements and 25 years of practice – not generic marketing commentary.
