Operator profile
Kartik Chugh
Cofounder, FORKOFF
Cofounder of FORKOFF, the operator-owned marketing partner for tech, SaaS, deep tech and Web3/AI founders. Headquartered in San Francisco, capped at five engagements per quarter, by application only.
What I do
Work spans founder voice in answer engines, programmatic SEO for B2B SaaS, cold outbound at scale, and the Founder Funnel operating model that lets two cofounders run the kind of pipeline most agencies need a 30-person team to fake.
Quoted as a named expert in TechBullion, BacklinkBuilding, Marketer Magazine, Best of HR, Connectively, and Zhanna Hamilton's Substack via Featured.com. Co-host of partner events at Devconnect Buenos Aires, Korea Blockchain Week, and TOKEN2049 Singapore.
