More about Poonam Salian

My experience in the digital marketing industry completely transformed my idea of entrepreneurship. Over the years I realized how maintaining relationships, networking, socializing & looking out for people while you’re working with them is what being an entrepreneur is all about. Soon, I took up the role of leading a bunch of artists & digital experts who curate state-of-the-art online experiences for big & small brands. I’ve always had the conviction towards making brands digitally fabulous, so I co-founded the Digital Ad Bureau Of India. 

Whether it is online or offline, professionally or personally; making lasting & bold impressions is imperative as for me and so, obviously for my team at DAB. I’m currently responsible for Business Development & Integrated Marketing Solutions for the DAB of India across all verticals. 

Juggling a bootstrapped marketing agency & painting brands like World Dhaba, Polytron USA, Vibgyor Group Of Schools in fabulous digital colors has been full of experience & learning. Contemplating that it’s only the start for us is in itself thrilling & inspiring. Its thoroughly delightful to conceive a full-scale marketing agency, to give it life and see it achieve 25+ active clients over the course of a few quick months. That being said, I’m excited & pumped to execute the rest of DAB’s business model - shaping a circle of bright, digitally effervescent individuals & brands who look for digital marketing solutions beyond extra-ordinary!

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai is playing biggest role in my personal and professional life together. Its a community where i meet like minded people to share idea and learn from their idea. Even while playing cricket i learn something and i implement something new from that learning. Its my entry point for building network in different countries where my base is not established yet. Personally my only fun activity day in a week is eChai cricket and social."

“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.”

"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.
