Digital Marketing Manager Thane, Maharashtra · India nareshbasude9@gmail.com ↗
[ ABOUT ] NARESH · BASUDE EST · 2019

I plan and run marketing that fills seats.

I am Naresh Basude, a Digital Marketing Manager based in Thane. For the last five years I have helped education and business brands grow — planning campaigns, running paid ads, building websites and doing SEO. What I like most is owning the whole funnel rather than one slice of it: the strategy, the execution, the creative, and the numbers at the end.

Today I lead a marketing team at ABS Educational Solution and I am measured on real outcomes — admissions, leads and growth. Based in Thane, Maharashtra, working across Mumbai and the MMR.

01  /  What I do Full funnel · One owner
02  /  Principles How I work
  1. 01 Pick the number first. Every campaign starts with the metric it has to move — admissions, qualified leads, cost per enrolment. Everything after that serves it.
  2. 02 Leads are people, not rows. A lead that nobody calls back is money burnt. Follow-up discipline beats extra budget almost every time.
  3. 03 Own the whole funnel. Ad, landing page, form, follow-up and the counselling call are one system. Optimising one part while ignoring the rest just moves the bottleneck.
  4. 04 Organic is the long game. Paid stops the day the card stops. Content and SEO keep producing enquiries between cycles, so both get funded.
  5. 05 Measure to the enrolment. Cost per lead flatters everybody. Cost per admitted student settles arguments.
