He has been a social media consultant for several large brands in India right from Nokia, HSBC to international names like WarnerBros, United Nations and several others since the last 4 years. “The significance of social media and impact on brands is more compounded today than ever before. Hence it’s important for all brands large and small to acquaint oneself with this new medium and start building the blocks of success from today itself.
