Meet the Team: Leon Giri – From Introverted to Impactful, This Rising Star Leads with Flexibility and Growth
At Thrills Marketing, success comes from more than just systems and sales; it comes from the individual journeys of the people who make our team exceptional. Today’s spotlight shines on Leon Giri, whose path reminds us all that growth begins the moment we step outside our comfort zones.
Leon didn’t launch into his sales career with a high-pressure pitch or a solo win; in fact, his first sale was a team effort. “Honestly, I was helped with everything, so the first was super easy,” he admits. That humility and openness to learning are exactly what Thrills Marketing is all about. Whether you're a veteran or brand new, success is a team sport here.
Leon describes his working style using a cycle that perfectly embodies our student mentality philosophy:
Fail → Learn → Fail better → Grow.
“Failure is just part of the process,” he says, and that belief is at the core of how he handles adversity and doubt. Rather than fearing failure, Leon embraces it as a sign of forward motion. It’s a mature mindset that many professionals take years to develop, and Leon is already living it.
One thing that may surprise people? Leon, who’s known around the team for his energy and openness, used to be very introverted. The transformation is proof that, with the right environment and personal commitment, anyone can grow beyond their old limits. Thrills Marketing encourages exactly that kind of transformation, through support, challenge, and opportunity.
Off the clock, Leon thrives in social settings. “Everything with everyone!” he says when asked what he enjoys doing for fun. Whether it's team outings, community events, or just spending time with friends, Leon draws energy from connection, a natural strength in face-to-face marketing.
When it comes to personal philosophy, Leon keeps it classic:
“Practice. Practice. Practice.” – Dale Carnegie
It’s a simple but powerful motto, and it highlights something we value deeply at Thrills: consistent effort over time beats talent every time. Leon applies that practice-first mentality to every part of his growth, embracing repetition and feedback as tools for mastery.
Flexibility is Leon’s greatest strength. In an industry that changes daily, from clients to campaigns to consumer behavior, the ability to pivot while staying focused is a rare and valuable skill. “Remaining flexible lets me grow where I’m needed,” he says. It’s a humble approach that serves both him and his team well.
Through his journey so far, Leon has internalized key lessons:
Student mentality is key.
A fool for a day is a student, a fool for a week is a fool.
Things don’t get easier, you get better.
That last one is especially reflective of everything we do at Thrills Marketing. We're not about shortcuts or promises of overnight results; we're about developing resilience, skill, and the kind of grit that helps you win long after your first sale.
Leon is trilingual, speaking English and Nepali, and he plans to visit Los Angeles if given the chance. Whether he’s traveling, working, or growing as a leader, his mindset stays the same: stay curious, stay humble, and never stop learning.
At Thrills Marketing, we often say that people are our greatest asset, and Leon Giri is a perfect example of why. From thoughtful insights to an infectious drive to improve, he’s proof that with patience, practice, and the right culture, there are no limits to what you can become.
Stay tuned for next month’s team spotlight, and keep in mind that great things happen when you remain flexible, face failure head-on, and trust the power of the process. Just ask Leon.
