Hi, I’m @visakanv<\/a>! I help people get better at marketing.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I was the blog editor at ReferralCandy<\/a> from 2013\u20132018, where I helped grow traffic 100x from under ~1,000 hits\/mo to over 100,000 hits\/mo, and helped bring in millions of dollars in revenue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m moderately “twitter-famous<\/a>“, having grown my Twitter audience to over 99,000 followers. I also have a youtube channel<\/a> (5,000+ subs) and I’ve published two ebooks<\/a> (7,000+ sales). I’m also a 3-time Quora Top Writer<\/a>, from back when it was cool. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I share these numbers because lots of people find that to be meaningful proof-of-work, but really I don’t think that raw # is a good metric for quality<\/a>. I consistently prefer to focus on trying to build meaningful relationships with people rather than try to reach as many people as possible (hence the tagline “slow marketing in a growth-crazed world”).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I co-founded Statement.sg (currently on pause), a Singaporean t-shirt and lifestyle brand. You can read about our journey here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m currently available for consulting<\/a> and speaking gigs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also follow me on Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are what I consider to be some of my best writing that helps marketers:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
