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 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.”

"At DevX.Work, we’ve greatly benefited from our association with eChai. Their events and networking forums have connected us with high-potential startups, ecosystem leaders, and innovation-driven professionals — many of whom have become valuable partners, collaborators, and even clients. What stands out most is the openness and accessibility of the community — whether you're an early-stage founder or an experienced entrepreneur, eChai provides a welcoming space to learn, collaborate, and grow. It's more than just a network — it's a catalyst for real, collaborative growth. We’re proud to be part of the eChai community. Highly recommended for any organization aiming to grow within the startup space."

“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."
