Abhishek Jain
Founder
Its easy to generate ideas, but difficult to execute. Hello & Jai Jinendra! This is Abhishek Jain, a Film Marketing professional in digital space. Marketing was always a ‘Keeda’ in me and films were something I was really passionate about. So I clubbed both and created a profession out of it. Now I am enjoying digital marketing and also delivering some great results to my clients who are producers, marketing agencies, celebrities, etc. Me & my company strongly believe in not just generating ideas but also executing them diligently. Hence, our focus is more practical and doable with INNOVATIONS intact. So, if you aren’t on digital yet then we could probably be your Digital Marketing Partners. You can contact me on abhishek@dgavatar.in and Yes, I don’t charge for consultation ;)
