From Product Designer ✏️ to B2C Brand Owner 🧴
In June 2025, I quit my job to begin my entrepreneurial journey.
It wasn’t a comfortable decision.
For years, my world revolved around user flows, nudges, drop-offs, and conversion rates inside an app. Overnight, I was thinking about raw material sourcing, packaging breakage rates, influencer ROI, ROAS, pricing psychology, distributor margins, and production cycles.
It felt like a professional identity crisis.
But somewhere along the way, the chaos harmonised into strength.
I realised something powerful. Design-first entrepreneurs have a serious edge when
building and scaling B2C brands!
Here’s why:
• Branding & Communication 🎨
A great product fails if its value isn’t communicated clearly. Designers instinctively understand perception, storytelling, hierarchy, and trust-building.
• Website & Digital Presence 🌐
When you’re the designer and the decision-maker, execution speeds up dramatically. Fewer bottlenecks. Faster iterations.
• Cheaper, Faster Experiments ⚡️
Not outsourcing design means lower burn. Lower burn means more experiments. More experiments mean quicker failures and quicker learning.
• The Designer Mindset 👨🏻🎨
Design education trains you to question assumptions, absorb feedback, improvise constantly, and never settle. That muscle becomes invaluable when building physical products.
Toaster
Turn the dial skip the doubt. Easier to use toaster dial that helps you decode the intensity better with supporting visuals.

A sophisticated take on unhygienic methods of serving water in India.
You might have noticed waiters serving multiple tumblers of water at once by holding them by the rims, with their fingers nearly touching the water.
This version allows the waiter to perform the task with the same efficiency while ensuring that the water does not get contaminated by someone’s touch.
Ofcourse this is an experiment and does not solve the fundamental problem of dirty water being served. It’s a fun experiment that promotes the same quick service experience. The ring would be wide enough for fingers to slide in and out.
