Meet Swati
I'm Swati, a problem solver who comes alive when solving diverse problems with passionate people.
My background is a mix of creative and analytical disciplines. I studied English Literature and Psychology but discovered my love for data-driven insights while working as a search engine marketer at Google. After three years, I moved to Singapore to work as a Digital Marketing leader at Mindshare, where I managed millions of dollars in ad spend and navigated the emerging mobile marketing landscape.
I then built a Data Management Platform for P&G Asia at a Seattle-based startup before moving to Facebook ( now Meta) where I led enterprise sales for the B2B ad-serving platform Atlas before becoming the Product Marketing lead for E-commerce and Travel advertisers across Asia Pacific.
My passion for product management led me to join Lazada (Alibaba) as the Executive Vice President of Product, where I drove monetisation strategy and product management for Lazada Sponsored Solutions. This was truly a unique zero to scale journey where I hired an entire team, built this product from the ground up and scaled it to generate millions of dollars in revenue within two years.
From there, I continued to build products as Chief Product & Growth Officer at a market-leading IoT startup, all while mentoring startup founders and discovering the need for fractional executive support in Product, Growth, and People Management as I had conversations with various leaders. As I joined the advisory boards of seed stage companies and had deeper conversations, I learned how much having a seasoned senior person on their teams could help them with the momentum they need.
That's how Growthful was born. As a fractional hands-on executive, I work with startups to help them solve their Product Management, Go-To-Market, and Performance challenges. I bring deep expertise in Product, Growth, and People management to startups to drive outcomes with a bias-for-action and urgency.
If you're a small business or start-up struggling in any of these areas, and are looking for some light weight help from someone with a proven track record of building and growing products, I would love to chat!
