While in Mumbai, Guy Kawasaki graced the Pinstorm office today. Spoke about his most recent venture, his early days, and some tips among other things. According to him, “most US advertising agencies are just full of hot air”. He also said that he was “very impressed with Pinstorm’s Pay For Performance model” and that “most agencies in the US would go bankrupt if they adopted this model”. It was good to interact with you, Guy, thanks for all the fun. The Pinstormers will stay in touch!
