About me:
Marketer, at MarketsandMarkets.
In previous stint, managed marketing team at Rohan Builders in Pune, amongst my memorable marketing moments are when my & my team managed Google Ad spends that discovered fresh audiences with significantly higher ARPU AND saved millions for a brand with 5 M+ downloads, and established processes and personally setup & optimized campaigns that increased digital sales significantly for another brand.
I have proven skills in hiring and managing digital marketing teams across different roles with focus on adding amazing value to businesses - over the years have failed a lot and learnt a lot.
It was a great learning to have implemented one of the industry best bots with a direct increase in the funnel, in paid conversions, and increase in the volume of engaged high-value audience for the business based on defined parameters.
One of the career-bending curves that I have been part of includes growing a video production team from scratch - that has delivered amazing output - leading to an increase in sales and improved digital campaigns - over a few years.
Started, operated for 3+ years, and closed a marketing agency with over 15+ member team of performance marketers, SEO specialists, graphics designers, and a video producer. Fortunate to have some of the best brands in the country as clients.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”
Rushabh Shah
Managing Partner - STIR Advisors
“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."

"After moving back from the USA, eChai became my go-to space to learn how the Indian startup ecosystem works. It offered direct exposure to startup thinking and a community that openly shares business insights. What stood out was how easy it was to connect, learn, and grow through real conversations. As we built our IT hardware rentals business, eChai helped us find our niche and refine our path. Proud and grateful to be part of this amazing community."
