Utsav Arora
@utsavarora
Creative Strategist, from founding an ecommerce brand to scaling consumer tech with Gen AI — 6+ years of creative work that actually moves numbers.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Creative Strategist with 6+ years of experience rooted in video editing and filmmaking, now combining content strategy with hands-on Gen AI video production to build repeatable creative systems. At (consumer tech) AppsForBharat, I lead an 8-person team to scale Daily Mantra App through video-led content strategy, delivering a 29% lift in conversion rates and growing from ~10 to 50k+ paid active subscribers in 4 months.
I also founded Elviot Skincare and grew it to 500k+ customers in 10 months by running brand, content, and paid creative end-to-end across Meta Ads, Google Ads, and Instagram.
I build and test hypotheses using performance signals (CTR/CR/ROAS/engagement), use Gen AI tools to increase production velocity, and translate data into clear hooks, formats, and execution direction — so the brand learns fast and scales what works.
