Hey There!



I created this blog to share my thoughts on all things digital marketing. I'm Amrita - a graduate student at NYU studying Integrated Marketing. I love to geek out over cool content marketing and strategy.

I'm somewhat of a nomad. I've lived in India, England, Switzerland, Australia, the Netherlands...in that order. I have a BA in Marketing & International Business from the George Washington University. I worked in advertising and PR with clients in the non profit, beauty, and healthcare industry.

 Things I Love:
  •  New York City
  • A good cup of coffee
  • Buzzfeed quizzes
  • Seinfeld, but also Gilmore Girls
  • Watching commercials
  • Reading - both novels and other blogs

My Fascination Archetype

What do I have in common with Tina Fey and Malcolm Gladwell? Turns out we have similar leadership styles! Who knew? This week, I took The Fascination Advantage assessment to learn how others perceive me and how I can use this to my advantage, both personally and professionally. The assessment, created by Sally Hogshead , has given me a new perspective on how my peers view me and how I can become a better leader.

Flexing on Fabletics

( Fabletics )  In 2018, almost any product - from toothbrushes to hot sauce - can come in the form of a subscription service. So a subscription service for women's workout apparel only makes sense. Enter Fabletics created by actress Kate Hudson. ( Fabletics ) A subscription service's website design and user experience is critical as this is where a customer will either begin a long - term relationship with a brand, or close the tab and move on. For a brand targeting young, digitally savvy women, the website is even more important. The first thing you see on the Fabletics website is a promotion: 2 leggings for $24 when you become a VIP Member . Scrolling further down the homepage, the purpose is clearly for a potential consumer to take a quiz on their workout preferences/routine as well as their style preferences. The quiz culminates with entering your email address and opening an account with Fabletics. There are two unique approaches Fabletics takes in this pro...
