In every Indian election season, there’s one common pain point I kept noticing — the lack of a centralized, user-friendly source for candidate lists.

The Death of Persuasion For decades, marketers worshiped persuasion; Kotler’s managerial models, Godin’s emotional tribes, Ries & Trout’s positioning. But persuasion assumes consent.
