@wamboiochieng
I build data-driven marketing and commercial strategies that grow retail brands and revenue.
What I'm looking for
I've grown retail brands across Kenya and Uganda through data-driven marketing, commercial strategy, and category planning. At Lintons Beauty World, I increased company-wide sales by 65%, expanded operations from 6 to 18 stores, and delivered 100% of sales objectives through an annual marketing plan.
Across Revlon Kenya, Goodlife Pharmacy Africa, Lintons, and NUANCE, I analyze sales, stock, consumer behaviour, P&L, and campaign data to improve pricing, assortment, distribution, and promotional decisions. My work has driven 15–30% month-on-month sales growth, expanded distribution from 80 to 200 outlets, increased online sales by 30%, and generated a 15% revenue increase through e-commerce product bundling.
I also build practical reporting, target-setting, incentive, and quality-control frameworks that help leadership and sales teams turn performance data into measurable outcomes.
