Sinay

My best ideas surface somewhere around lap forty.

I'm Sinay. I build small companies end to end: the product, the story, and the numbers behind it. Most mornings start in the water.

I grow other people's products, and build my own.

I studied mechanical engineering, fell into online marketing, and taught myself to code so I could build the things I kept pitching.

For fourteen years I've grown other people's products: at Google, twice; at Taboola; at Lili, where we went from nothing to 100,000 users in six months; and now as VP Marketing at Greetings Island, past ten million app installs.

Alongside that I build my own: small, useful tools that make one decision easier. A few of them ended up on TV and in the papers.

“Sinay is a growth and online marketing wizard. He has a creative, visionary mind, and he is able to strategize and see the big business picture.”
Aron Di Castro, VP and Country Manager at Payoneer

Three good things

From my journal, Friday, October 9

  • didn't take sleeping pills tonight
Read the whole journal

What I'm working on

  1. Testing a sharper onboarding loop

    Reducing the first product action to one decision and one measurable outcome.

  2. Learning where paid search breaks

    Mapping the gap between high-intent keywords and actual founder willingness to pay.

  3. Swimming as operating rhythm

    Using long sessions to pressure-test strategy and reset attention before deep work.
