and the stage of life companies are in, a faster ROI is always asked for," explains Dhrubajyoti Gayan,Managing Director, Candour Communications. Candour caters to all the integrated PR needs of a client and its services include corporate & marketing communication audits, trainings, messaging and strategy development, media relations, industry partnerships and social media management.
Interestingly, it is not the range of services that they differ in, but it is in the way they execute the portfolio. Candour works closely with each client to understand their goals and the pulse of their target audiences, based on which, the company designs long and short-term plans that also gel well with the ever-changing conditions, while continuously reviewing the performance all along. In a nutshell, the company serves as an extended arm of its clients, rather than an external entity.
Fueling the Master Minds
With over 30 diverse and experienced people in the industry as its resources, Candour is distinctively marked through its flat and open work culture, which encourages rigor of knowledge and creative thinking. Perhaps, these are the same qualities that have driven Candour to achieve a growth rate of over 50 percent last year alone. Even with such a growth curve, the company still envisions being a boutique consultancy rather than a massive organization, which loses itself and its focus completely in the race to become ever bigger.
