Binal is one such valuable resource with her pulse on consumer insights and forecasting trends. As marketing head of Macmerise, she juggles duties between managing a complete licensing and collaboration portfolio, onboarding celebrities / communities / brands to create their merchandise, and promoting them across various channels.
Consumer insights have always interested Binal, who has worked as a qualitative researcher at Ipsos, a global MNC, and previously handled market research projects for HUL, Kellogg's, and Kao.
