About Our Founder
Lakshane Fonseka’s journey to revolutionising digital marketing began not in a corporate office, but in the unforgiving world of music promotion.
As an independent artist, Lakshane mastered the psychological triggers that turn casual listeners into devoted fans. He discovered that the same principles that build cult-like followings for artists could transform how service businesses acquire and retain premium clients.
While others focused on trendy tactics, Lakshane was reverse-engineering the emotional architecture behind viral growth. This obsession with understanding attention economics led him to pioneer platforms like Facebook Ads in 2013, long before most marketers recognized their potential.
As his music gained traction -attracting radio play and collaborations with global artists—Lakshane recognised that his true talent wasn’t just creating content, but architecting the systems that make content convert.
After sharpening his analytical skills at a Big 4 consulting firm, he took a calculated risk by joining a leading TikTok-focused agency to merge data-driven strategy with cutting-edge creative. There, he transformed campaigns for major brands like Kathmandu and Jurlique, consistently achieving what other marketers considered impossible: predictable growth in chaotic platforms.
Today, Lakshane leads Uprise with a singular focus: applying the psychological frameworks from entertainment marketing to serious service businesses. The result is the Trust Triangle system—a methodology that turns ordinary businesses into market-dominating forces with devoted client communities.
What separates Lakshane from typical “marketing experts” is his unique combination of creative direction, performance marketing, and enterprise strategy – bringing a level of sophistication to service businesses that was previously reserved for global entertainment brands.
