What is The Business of Marketing?

Welcome to the newsletter made for marketers who obsess over building better products, better services and better businesses.

People who need more than quick hacks and ready-made solutions.

I’m Aliyar – the human algorithm that collects, connects, and creates knowledge for people who value innovation and set the pace for others to follow.

I read for 4 hours every day and take what I learn from the 50+ business news, industry publications, and market research to form the big-picture.

I focus on identifying developments that have a far-reaching impact on how we buy and sell products and services.

And my selection criteria has been refined by years of practical experience working with consumer and enterprise brands.

I look for patterns and connect the dots between big and small developments across strategy, brands, business, finance, martech, public policy and digital marketing.

I condense it into a short and sweet weekly email for you.

I’m a digital strategist and I help marketers drive growth through marketing.

Currently, I’m Head of Strategy at Mirum Agency in Helsinki. In the past, I’ve worked in leadership positions in business development, analytics and client leadership at digital and media agencies within the Omnicom and WPP networks.

During my career, I’ve worked with amazing brands and learned from businesses of all sizes operating locally and globally in almost every industry and at every development stage.

I obsess over building services that people can’t live without.

And I see marketing as a service that a business delivers to help people find useful solutions in a crowded market.

Because I think Peter Drucker got it right.

“. . . the business has two – and only two – basic functions: innovation and marketing. Marketing and Innovation produce results, all the rest are costs”

My mission is to help others succeed.

And currently, I’m helping my clients succeed with digital strategy, analytics and growth marketing.

I’ve been a part of, and have lead, projects across almost every aspect of marketing from media planning, analytics, martech, inbound & performance marketing.

I also have extensive experience in building marketing teams and business operations.

Launching a Don Draper-level creative campaign for a B2B brand is on my bucket list.
