💡Shuchi Sarkar, Chief Marketing Officer of LTIMindtree, underscores the critical role of branding as both an immediate catalyst and a long-term asset in driving business success. With deep expertise in tech marketing, she explains that a strong brand builds trust, credibility, and directly fuels demand generation. Rather than viewing branding as detached from short-term objectives, Shuchi positions it as a core driver that influences purchasing decisions and contributes lasting value to the business.💡

"Ultimately the long lasting asset—and that’s why you know when a company is evaluated, you always value the power of your brand—because that’s one asset... not like physical property or your furniture or your computers, but is that intangible that makes the difference." - Shuchi Sarkar

She highlights the evolving role of marketers in aligning near-term sales efforts with long-term brand equity. By integrating brand strategy into demand generation, businesses can achieve both immediate impact and sustained growth. Sarkar’s insights stress that brand and demand are not opposing forces but interconnected pillars essential for building customer trust and enduring market relevance.
