Online Reputation Management (ORM) is the strategic practice of monitoring, shaping, and influencing how an individual or business is perceived on the internet. It involves neutralising negative feedback, responding to customer reviews, and actively promoting positive content to build trust and credibility.

(ORM) - what it actually is, how it's different from social media 
management, and what a solid ORM strategy looks like for Indian businesses 
in 2026.

Most people think e-commerce marketing is just running ads. It's not.

It's not about one campaign. It's not about one platform. It's not even about getting more traffic.

E-commerce marketing is three jobs running at the same time — and most brands are only doing one of them.

In Episode 5 of Founders' Bytes, we break down What E-Commerce Marketing Actually Is — in the simplest way possible, without jargon, fluff, or confusing marketing terms.

We talk about:

✔️ What e-commerce marketing actually means — beyond just "running ads"
✔️ The 3 core jobs every e-commerce brand must run simultaneously
✔️ Awareness, Conversion & Retention — explained simply and honestly
✔️ Why most beginners only focus on Job 1 and wonder why they're not profitable
✔️ The flywheel effect — how great retention eventually gets you new customers for FREE
✔️ How word of mouth and referrals help you escape the ad-spend treadmill
✔️ Why e-commerce marketing is really about connecting the right product to the right person at the right moment — profitably
✔️ The mental model that changes how you think about every rupee you spend on marketing
✔️ Why traffic without conversion and retention is just an expensive hobby
✔️ How to think about e-commerce marketing as a system — not a series of one-off campaigns

Whether you're a founder just starting your first online store, a marketer trying to connect the dots, or a student building your foundation in digital marketing — this episode gives you the clearest mental model for how e-commerce marketing actually works.

Stop thinking in channels. Start thinking in systems.
