In February 2023 I shared a series of LinkedIn‑style observations covering subscription business models in India, the Marico Economic Times Corporate Citizen award, reality‑delay thinking, morning coffee meetings, a heuristic for ROI, and a quote about future‑bridging products.
I asked, “Are we moving towards a world of subscriptions?” highlighting subscriptions as a predictable revenue source and an affordable, need‑based solution for users.
I cited Naval Ravikant’s mantra “Impatience with actions, patience with results.” to frame my reality‑delay thinking.
I declared “Morning coffee meetings are my thing.” and listed three benefits: discovering new coffee products, fostering exploration, and enabling free‑flow of ideas.
I shared the ROI heuristic: “If something makes you 2X better in 0.5X the effort or time and 1.5X the money, take the plunge.”
I publicly congratulated the Marico team for being chosen as The Economic Times Corporate Citizen of the Year 2022.
I listed the senior leaders recognized in the Marico award post: Harsh Mariwala, Saugata Gupta, Ananth Narayanan, Nikhil Khattau, Milind Barve, Rajeev Vasudeva, Apurva Purohit, Nayantara Bali.
