My dad called me the other day to ask if Atomberg fans are any good. I said, “Oh yeah, I follow Arindam Paul on social media — seems like they’re doing great stuff.”

Dad: “Cool. Which one do you have?”

“Uh… Crompton. No wait, maybe Havells? Bajaj?”

By the time I hung up, I was confused.

I had four fans installed at home and I couldn’t even remember the brand.

And here I was recommending Atomberg — a product I’ve never used.

It reminded me of something Simon Sinek once said: “People don’t buy what you do. They buy why you do it.”

Arindam has made himself the why behind Atomberg. People trust him — and by extension, the brand.

Long story short: this is what good marketing looks like - subtly making its way into your pysche, while optimising for trust and long term objectives.
