More about Pooja Dhole

Pooja is on the mission to help brands and entrepreneurs reach the highest potential of their business. As a marketing consultant, she has spent 4+ years creating engaging content, building better marketing strategies, and building funnels to reach their ideal client and convert more leads. 

To achieve anything great, she truly believes the courage to explore and experiment is the answer. She followed the same value throughout her career. After graduating in Computer Science and Engineering, she explored a lot of different career paths, from business journalist to analyst to content creator early in her career. Finally fell in love with digital marketing. 

This journey also helped her create “Being Actualized”, a career exploration platform where she helps ambitious people explore their ideal career path. The rule is simple: Career is like dating! Explore until you found the one, don’t settle! Once you found the one, it's easy to advance and build a better, more fulfilling life. 

Alongside a bachelor’s degree in computer science and engineering, she had also studied documentaries and broadcast journalism at the Indian Institute of Journalism and New Media, Bangalore. Her expertise in this area helps her understand market psychology and humor in the current system, which now helps her build better marketing campaigns that get results. 

When she is not developing marketing strategies or helping her client get a better career, she loves doing stand-up comedy in nearly open mics. In 2019, she was nominated as the "Top 5" comic to look out for by The Grin Evolution.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
