Your basic business queries are answered here. Things you may have in mind but are a bit hesitant to ask. If you still have questions, feel free to probe further.
SSARMA Consults acts as a fractional CXO at the intersection of product, marketing, and technology, pairing senior-level advisory support with an on-demand execution team. This gives you leadership insight, strategic vision, and hands-on implementation capability at a fraction of the cost of building and maintaining the same service suite in-house.
Let us know your pain points and we will try our best to address them. If you like what you hear, you will have to offer us a project mandate in the form of a contract, clearly defining scope, timelines and financials that are mutually agreed upon.
