Building VietBrew, A Vietnamese Coffee Brand | Director at Mapplinks, Growth Marketing Consultancy
I help brands achieve scalable growth through full-funnel growth marketing strategies and leadership. As the founder of Mapplinks since 2014, I’ve built a growth consultancy that works with leading 7- and 8-figure brands. I also serve as a Fractional CMO / Fractional Head of Growth, providing strategic growth consulting to select clients. With a decade of experience in growth marketing, I’ve led Mapplinks to support 60+ startups and established businesses, focusing on maximising their growth potential through our proprietary growth framework. Author of “101 Ways to Grow Your Startup” (2019) and “Mastering Growth Marketing” (2023), I share practical insights and proven tactics drawn from real-world growth marketing experience. I speak at global conferences on e-commerce growth, digital marketing, and online business, with over 40 keynotes delivered worldwide. Follow me on LinkedIn for insights on D2C growth, e-commerce strategy, and advanced growth marketing techniques. If you’re an e-commerce brand generating six figures in annual revenue and aiming to scale to 7 or 8 figures and beyond, let’s discuss how we can work together. You can book a discovery call with me at cal.com/rishdev/discovery.
