Arfa Afsar — Business Development Executive
With over 4 years of work experience in sales and eCommerce, I am passionate about enabling Indian brands to go global by helping them launch and grow on Amazon.com. As a Sales Specialist at Amazon, I leverage my MBA and B.Com. degrees, as well as my domain expertise in eCommerce, to identify and onboard potential sellers, provide them with strategic guidance and support, and optimize their performance and profitability. I am motivated by Amazon's customer-centric and innovative culture, and I strive to bring diverse perspectives and experiences to the team, as I have lived and studied in different countries and worked with various stakeholders across the sales and eCommerce ecosystem. Before joining Amazon, I was a Key Account Manager at Pidilite Industries Limited, where I managed key account sales for modern trade and eCommerce in East India. I was responsible for developing and executing sales plans, building and maintaining relationships with key accounts, negotiating contracts and deals, and ensuring customer satisfaction and retention. I also contributed to the launch execution of new products and coordinated with cross-functional teams to ensure smooth operations and logistics.
