ExecuteCatalogue, advertising, operations and compliance, run to a weekly cadence.
AutomateThe repetitive parts — reconciliation, claims, alerting — handed to software.
MeasureContribution per SKU and per channel, calculated the same way every time.
ScaleAdd channels and markets against a model that has already been proven.
Global reach

Why SMEMinds

Would you trust this company with a ₹100 crore brand?

The honest answer depends on whether we can show our working. So we do.

Ex-Amazon DNA

Built by people who worked inside the marketplace, not alongside it. The insider view is the product.

Numbers first

Every recommendation carries the model behind it. If we cannot show the arithmetic, we do not make the claim.

Education as a product

Nine Playbooks, 437 lessons and every calculator — because clients who understand the model make better decisions between our calls.

AI that is grounded

Saarthi answers from your own reports and cites them. No invented figures.

Full-stack execution

Strategy, catalogue, advertising, operations, compliance and reporting under one accountable team.

Built for India

GST, marketplace reality, Hinglish narration and the rules the rest of the internet skips.

Founder story

It started with a pattern that was impossible to unsee.

The observation

Over a decade inside Amazon — the India marketplace and the Europe Vendor Management Program — the same pattern repeated. The brands that compounded were not the ones with the best product. They were the ones who knew their numbers at the SKU level and acted on them weekly.

The gap

That knowledge was concentrated in a small number of people, most of whom worked for the platform or for the largest brands on it. An SME with a genuinely good product had no realistic way to access it.

SMEMinds, 2019

The company started as consulting — taking marketplace operations off founders' desks and running them to an internal standard. The first clients were brands who were growing and losing money at the same time.

Founded by an ex-Amazonian with over ten years across Amazon India and the Europe Vendor Management Program.

Questions

The things people ask before the first call.

Three things that reinforce each other. We run marketplace operations as a consulting engagement; we teach the same models through SMEMinds Playbook; and we build AI — including Saarthi, an AI chief-of-staff for Indian sellers — that puts the answer in front of you without opening a report.

Both, deliberately. The consulting work is what keeps the technology honest: every calculator and every model in the Playbooks came out of an account we were running.

Amazon Seller Central and Vendor Central in India and internationally, Flipkart, Myntra, the quick-commerce platforms, and D2C storefronts alongside them.

With a free growth consultation and a scoped audit. You get the findings whether or not you continue — including the ones that say you do not need us.

No. They are separate products. Many Playbook subscribers never become consulting clients, and that is a perfectly good outcome.

Playbook subscriptions start at ₹799 a week per Playbook. Consulting is a retainer scaled to catalogue size and scope, always quoted in writing after the audit — never before it.

Surat, with teams working across Mumbai and Bangalore. Most of our clients are elsewhere entirely.

Both, but the work is different. A brand doing ₹50 lakh to ₹100 crore usually needs an operating cadence and a P&L it can trust. A new seller usually needs the structure set up correctly once — registration, catalogue architecture, compliance — so the next two years are not spent undoing it.

Yes. The account stays yours and we work through secure sub-user access with the narrowest permissions the task needs — never a shared password. You can see every action, and you can revoke our access yourself at any time without asking us.

By treating policy risk as an operating metric rather than an emergency. Order defect rate, policy violations and the 60-day rolling windows are monitored on the same cadence as sales, because a suspension costs more than any month of growth it interrupts.

Yes — Sponsored Products, Brands, Display and DSP, plus Google and Meta where they earn their place. Spend is judged against contribution margin, so a campaign that raises revenue while lowering profit shows up as the problem it is.

Yes. Amazon Global Selling, cross-border compliance and the export routes around them. The first decision is which market, and it is a modelling question — the largest marketplace is often not the one that pays best after fees, freight and duty.
