i’ve been yelling this for sometime now… that fmcg marketers will become v valuable.

(but most readers are unable to understand).

(so, let me try again)

fmcg has built brands in parity-driven categories - all toothpaste is toothpaste / all shampoo is shampoo (no major product differentiation).

yet somebody “somehow” still ends up building a ₹1000cr brand. 🤯

that “somehow” doesn’t happen because of actual product superiority - it happens cuz “brand”.

tech marketers haven’t practiced this art enough - they usually talk speed, UX, feature depth, APIs/integration, etc

but with AI, tech too will become mature / parity-driven market like fmcg did.

(i.e every product will look good, feel smooth, ship fast)

WHEN that happens, you will win cuz of perception / reputation / brand.

HENCE, the future of tech marketing = FMCG playbook.
