What is Silate Marketing Deck.
Silate Marketing Deck is the practical execution plan for our ₹25 Lakh marketing budget. It shows where every rupee goes across 12th to 15 months to acquire our first batch of active, paying merchants. This is not an assumption; it is a locked operating plan built for real ground results.
The ₹25 Lakh fund is strictly divided into five clear heads — Field Marketing Team, Customer Support, Workplace & Hardware, Ground Travel & Demos, and Digital Sprints. Every expense has a fixed budget limit and a specific target, ensuring money is spent with strict financial discipline, zero waste, and no guesswork.
This deck breaks down the exact costs of ground executives, phone support, travel, shop demo kits, and the Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) per merchant. It lays out the step-by-step path from Month 11 beta onboarding to the Month 15 commercial launch — showing how every single rupee directly brings in paying customers.
