Commercial Growth, Marketing Leader.

Marketing organisations at their best operate as commercial engines, where strategy, execution, and financial discipline work together to produce measurable growth, not just visible activity.

This is the standard I hold myself to across every engagement.

Over 9+ years I have built marketing functions from the ground up, sustained them under severe resource constraints, negotiated executive partnerships with national-scale brands, and directed multi-billion rupiah campaign portfolios across Indonesia's most demanding multi-brand environments.

I combine strategic planning rigour with hands-on execution and financial governance. I am available for corporate marketing leadership, remote director mandates, and advisory engagements where integrated commercial thinking and a demonstrable track record are genuinely valued.

§ 03

Five principles. One standard.

Five principles govern every engagement. Each is backed by a specific commercial outcome, not a management theory.

Most marketing problems are misdiagnosed before the first campaign goes live. The issue is rarely creative quality. It is usually a broken funnel, wrong audience definition, or a commercial target that was never clearly set. I diagnose before I recommend. The brief follows the diagnosis, not the other way around.

Evidence · RTI Group Rebuilt KPI structures and lead qualification logic before scaling IDR 1.5B/month spend, resulting in 500+ qualified leads per day and 28% ROI improvement.

Every marketing decision is filtered through one question: does this move a commercial number? Brand awareness only matters if it feeds a conversion pipeline. I build teams and reporting systems that speak the language of finance, not just campaign dashboards.

Evidence · Kado Bajo Group Marketing spend realigned monthly against P&L performance across 9 SBUs on IDR 300-400M annual budget. Direct Finance and Operations collaboration.

Scaling a marketing operation is easy. Scaling it without breaking the commercial model is hard. I build systems that work at current size and extend cleanly as the business grows, rather than systems that require capital injections to maintain.

Evidence · Privilege Creative Agency 14 active clients, 13 staff, less than 10% of planned capital, reached break-even through operational discipline alone.

The best influencer deal is not the one with the biggest reach. It is the one where the creator fits the brand, the terms protect the business, and the relationship deepens over time. I treat KOL and brand partnerships as long-term commercial relationships requiring negotiation, cultural intelligence, and performance management.

Evidence · MS Glow Executive partnership personally negotiated and sustained across 4 major national campaigns and multiple subsequent years.

Creative campaigns fail consistently when the backend is not built. No CRM, no lead tracking, no reporting cadence. I invest in the operational infrastructure that allows creative campaigns to actually convert. The dashboard is as important as the brief.

04Approach
05Result
01Context
E-commerce performance marketing via TikTok Shop. Full responsibility for paid media, content-to-conversion strategy, and live commerce optimisation across a growing product portfolio.
02Challenge
Building consistent revenue growth through TikTok Shop while maintaining lead quality and scaling efficiently without proportional increases in ad spend.
03Diagnosis
The growth lever was not spend volume. It was conversion architecture. Optimising the relationship between live commerce, product placement, and audience retargeting produced compounding returns at each stage.
04Approach
Structured a full-funnel TikTok performance system: paid acquisition into live commerce events, retargeting warm audiences, and systematic creative iteration every 10-14 days. Tracked buyer quality, not just order volume.
05Result
Revenue grew 4.7× in 6 months: February Rp644M, March Rp1.3B, June Rp1.8B, July Rp3.0B. Buyer count grew 679%, from 1,734 to 13,295. Order volume grew from 2,098 to 16,160.

Digital marketing division with monthly advertising portfolios exceeding IDR 1.5 billion across Meta, TikTok, Google, and influencer-integrated channels. 30-person cross-functional team.
02Challenge
High-spend portfolio with inconsistent lead quality, unclear KPI ownership across the team, and no real-time ROI visibility across channels simultaneously.
03Diagnosis
Volume was being optimised without defining what a qualified lead meant commercially. A qualification gap, not a budget or creative problem.
04Approach
Rebuilt KPI framework from commercial objective backwards. Introduced structured team accountability with weekly performance cadences. Built automated dashboards for daily spend efficiency visibility by channel.
05Result
500+ qualified leads per day consistently delivered. 28% average ROI improvement. 35% reduction in manual reporting overhead through automated dashboard infrastructure.

04Approach
05Result
01Context
MS Glow is one of Indonesia's largest consumer beauty brands with significant marketing spend and an established agency ecosystem. Engagement initiated from cold outreach.
02Challenge
Securing and sustaining a partnership with a national-scale brand required demonstrating specific strategic and executional value, not just availability or cost competitiveness.
03Diagnosis
MS Glow needed a partner who understood Indonesian consumer culture at the activation level: field presence, KOL ecosystem management, and national-scale brand consistency.
04Approach
Structured value proposition around activation capability and KOL discipline. Personally negotiated commercial terms and usage rights. Designed first campaign as proof of capability before proposing a longer engagement.
05Result
Long-term executive partnership secured. 4 major national campaigns directed. Partnership sustained across multiple subsequent years, the clearest commercial signal that the relationship delivered consistent value.

02Challenge
Executing nationally consistent brand activation across 26 geographically distributed cities while maintaining brand standards, execution quality, and commercial accountability throughout.
03Diagnosis
Primary risk was brand drift. Secondary risk was coordination failure between field teams and central management. Both required a single, clear operating framework before any execution began.
04Approach
Built unified campaign framework: standardised briefing templates, city-level execution checklists, daily reporting cadences, and clear escalation structures. PR and influencer integration coordinated centrally, executed with local cultural adaptation.
05Result
6,500+ product distributions across 26 cities. Multiple MURI national records, Indonesia's highest official recognition for campaign scale. Full brand consistency maintained across all territories.

Operating on less than 10% of planned working capital while maintaining full service delivery across 14 clients and full-time staff without visible external support.
03Diagnosis
Not a revenue problem. The pipeline was intact. An expense structure and workflow efficiency problem requiring surgical operational discipline, not a capital injection.
04Approach
Audited every operational cost and restructured against minimum viable delivery. Renegotiated vendor terms. Rebuilt internal workflows. Maintained all 14 client relationships through personal oversight of quality and communication.

Multi-SBU Budget Strategy

04Approach
05Result
01Context
Hospitality and lifestyle conglomerate with 9 active strategic business units across Bali and Nusa Tenggara. Annual marketing budget IDR 300-400 million managed independently with GM-level approval.
02Challenge
Allocating a constrained annual marketing budget across 9 strategically different SBUs in a period of declining tourism market activity. Maintaining visibility for all simultaneously was commercially impossible.
03Diagnosis
A prioritisation problem. Each SBU had different revenue profiles, audience compositions, and conversion economics. Concentration in highest-ROI units was the only commercially defensible allocation.
04Approach
Built a prioritisation framework using monthly P&L data, occupancy rates, and audience acquisition cost per SBU. Concentrated investment in highest-ROI units. Maintained lower-priority units through PR, owned media, and CRM activation.
05Result
Revenue sustainability maintained through tourism market downturn. Marketing investment realigned to commercial performance data. Custom CRM workflow implemented to improve lead management efficiency and reduce wasted advertising spend.
