Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?

Hi, I’m Vikas Chawla - founder of Social Beat - a digital growth partner for hyperscaling startups & top brands.

In 2012, we realized that there was a gap and a mismatch in expectations when it came to digital and social media marketing solutions.

While there were several global creative and digital agencies, the numbers of homegrown digital agencies were only a handful. Since then, our mission has always been designing and delivering ROI-driven digital marketing with a singular aim to build brands, acquire customers and retain customers for our clients.

In the last 9 years, we have had an amazing journey. We now have a 300+ member team of growth experts and partner with top brands in India and Asia to offer integrated digital marketing solutions. We manage 3% of the digital media investment in the country and have an MRR of $400,000.
