💗Founders, Techies, Creators and Marketers - all under one roof one evening!! What an amazing turnout it was... 💯at Draper Startup House organised by eChai Ventures!!

Yes, and we all bonded over one common interest - #MarketingStrategy!

After all, who doesn't want it?? And doesn't get excited about it??

Right from #SteveJobs to an Aman Gupta!! And that's exactly what Penchala Tharun 🚀, the dynamic host made us do - think, ask, grill, imagine, visualize, find answers and have some serious fun.

As an experienced #BrandMarketer, it was always on my list to:

1. Quash doubts about Marketing for Startups - especially in Tech domain.
2. Clear misconceptions around Budgeting for Marketing
3. Guide them on how to go about GTM.
4. How to crack the Sales/Investor Pitch or Presentation.
5. And last but most important, the DON'Ts!
💗
I did try my best to address these in the short span of time that we had. If you still have any queries, please feel free to DM or write to: [email protected]

Special thanks to Jatin Chaudhary and Nivin Joseph to make this happen.

"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."
