RECENT PROJECTS


MIGRATE TO A NEW MARKETING STACK (NOCODE)

After acquiring a company, the client wanted to rationalise spend by merging
their marketing stack. A “no custom code” solution helped simplify the move,
enhanced their tech stack, and retained their historic data with far less
disruption and cost


MVP FOR PHYSIOTHERAPY APP (NOCODE)

A client wanted to assess interest in his library of exercise videos. Instead of
spending months and '000s of dollars, we built a responsive app using GlideApps
within a week with 95% saving. Given its success, the client is now building a
full-fledged native app.


EXCEL-BASED COMPANY-WIDE KPI DASHBOARD

Client was concerned that she was reacting to problems rather than being on top
of things. We realised that we needed a mechanism where problems were
highlighted much earlier. A Google Sheet based dashboard is now used by every
team to track project progress


MEASURE EFFICIENCY IN A FACTORY (NOCODE)

Client wanted to measure the efficiency of their factory assets: machines, teams
and key individuals. An easily maintainable noCode solution helped them
implement in a week improving efficiency by 30%


SETUP AMAZON, FB AND GOOGLE ADS

A major manufacturer wanted to focus on online sales given the COVID disruption
to offline. We set up ad networks with AI-based ad generation/product
descriptions, ad automation, keyword management, naming convention et al. The
result was a constantly improving ACoS with an additional 10% in sales


RE-DESIGN CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT PLATFORM (NOCODE)

Client was a marketing agency that used an expensive, buggy, custom-built
software to run deep engagement campaigns. Analysis revealed that a repurposed
WordPress based learning management system could replace this custom solution
with a 90% cost reduction


HELP IN NEGOTIATING WITH VC

Given the importance of this negotiation, the client and I practised our pitch
on yearly targets and the amount/timing of stock vesting. It resulted in a more
confident client who got exactly what she wanted


EXCEL FINANCIAL MODEL

I firmly believe that a good financial model should reflect and inform company
strategy. Helped a client define their business model in excel.


HELP WITH ANGEL INVESTMENT DECISIONS

Helped a High Net Worth individual assess investment decisions based on my
knowledge of the SaaS space


DELEGATE PROPOSAL MAKING WITH COMPLEX PRICING

Automated a complex pricing structure so that the founder could delegate
proposal writing to his team members


WHY ME?


EXPERTISE IN NOCODE OPERATIONS AUTOMATION

Founder of Build a Stack.com (#3 Product of the Day on ProductHunt;750+
upvotes).With knowledge of ‘000s of SaaS products & WordPress plugins, I focus
on automation without custom code


KNOWLEDGE OF VISUAL CODING (NOCODE) TOOLS

Tools like BackendLess, AppGyver, Bubble.io, Bildr, GlideApps, etc have
revolutionised the creation of MVP. This tweet best explains my thoughts and
approach.In short, speak to me before you speak to developers!


PREMIUM LISTING ON BUILD A STACK

If relevant, a review of your product can be featured on buildastack.com, a #3
product of the day on ProductHunt. This helps with relevant lead generation and
SEO


SHORT PROJECTS, QUICK RESULTS

Most of my projects last for less than 5 days. My knowledge of software tools
significantly shortens the requirement capture phase.


20+ YEARS OF DIVERSE EXPERIENCE

My experience in start-ups equips me to work well in resource-constrained,
chaotic worlds. Moreover, this gives me a diversity of experience in operations,
technology, strategy, logistics, finance, accounting, marketing, sales et al
which I leverage to help my clients.


HANDS-ON CONSULTANT

Being a Founder/CEO can be a lonely role. You need someone you can discuss and
delegate responsibility to. I am a trustworthy, experienced, on-demand,
additional pair of hands to help you run your business or business unit. There
is no commitment and you can cancel at any time.


TWO SUCCESSFUL FUND RAISES

Successful fundraise for 2 start-ups: a $6mn raise at $22mn post money. And a
$100k raise at $1mn post money


VAST INTERNATIONAL NETWORK

An MBA from London Business School (ranked among the top 10 in the world) gives
access to an international community that I leverage for my clients


TESTIMONIALS


RASHI MITTAL, FOUNDER AND CEO - WOOP

While Navin's core strengths are technology, operations and finance, Navin is my
go-to-person for frankly ALL problems. His way of thinking through the bigger
picture behind the problem, and the ability to creatively find multiple
solutions that might work is just sheer brilliance at work. He has helped us
identify and build two new revenue-streams which are now becoming a core
business-driver for us. The best part of the solutions he provides is that they
are simple and affordable. Around him, I constantly find myself thinking 'Why
didn't I think of that?'. But it's not just ideas and concepts... he doesn't shy
away from getting his hands dirty if need be, to manage the execution of the
recommendations he makes. It's been a while since I worked with someone that I
recommend as highly as him.


SAUMIL GANDHI, MD AND CEO - VISSCO

Navin has a unique ability to automate repetitive tasks using b2b technology and
provides efficient solutions to complex business needs. He's a problem solver,
extremely focused and amicable to work with.


ZAHID SHEIKH, FOUNDER - TOMORROW @ WORK

Navin is one of the best technical minds that I know of. While the work that
both of us do in the real world are quite diverse, there have been many times
when I have looked up to Navin for technical guidance. He understands problems
from different industries and is quick in offering solutions that help build a
good tech base. Having worked with his guidance on Internation Business
Networking and Edutech, he has been able to build efficient and cost-effective
solutions for our projects. What helped me most was that Navin has a complete
understanding of the business strategy and does not come in as just a pure
technologist. It is his personal work as an entrepreneur which gives him that
perspective.A logical and sharp mind, it is always a pleasure to work with him.
Look forward to doing more!
