Arafat Obi

Arafat Obi is a HubSpot-certified digital marketer and entrepreneur based in Dhaka, Bangladesh. He founded Arafat Labs in 2023 after observing that most Bangladeshi SMBs were being underserved by agencies that didn't understand local market dynamics. He also serves as Co-Founder & COO at Kormik, where he leads operations, growth strategy, and cross-functional execution.

His specialties include technical SEO for e-commerce (especially Daraz sellers), high-ROAS Meta Ads campaigns for Bangladesh, and full-funnel growth strategy for SaaS companies. Over the past three years he has personally led growth campaigns across e-commerce, real estate, F&B, education, and B2B SaaS — both locally in Bangladesh and internationally in the US, UK, and Australia.
