Performance marketing - e-commerce growth - AI automation

Tejas Karan
Agrawal

I am a performance marketing and e-commerce growth operator who learned by building real stores, then moved toward AI-first automation because modern marketing teams need people who can execute, test, and systemize at the same time.

My edge is the combination: self-taught digital marketing since 2018, formal Canadian marketing education, 2 crore plus in commerce sales, and current side projects where I ship AI agents and growth systems instead of only talking about them.

Why I am the right bet.

I am applying for performance marketing, digital marketing, growth, and e-commerce automation roles. The reason I am different is simple: I have lived the full growth loop, from learning ads on YouTube to scaling stores, studying the field formally, and now building AI systems that make marketing execution faster.

I know the work beneath the dashboard

I have handled products, stores, ads, creative feedback, suppliers, support, funnels, and retention. That makes my marketing decisions practical, not theoretical.

I can connect performance with systems

I think in loops: traffic, offer, conversion, retention, reporting, and automation. That is useful for growth teams that want AI-first people, not only media buyers.

I keep learning where the market is going

After years of self-taught execution and two Canadian diplomas, I now build side projects with AI agents, React-based apps, and automation workflows to stay ahead of how marketing teams will operate.

The path.

My story is not a straight resume line. It is a progression: self-taught digital marketing, early jobs, formal study in Canada, e-commerce proof, brand-facing performance work, and now AI-first marketing automation.
