If we had a penny for every time somebody has asked us why we started Windchimes, we would have been millionaires twice over. Well the answer is our common passion for tea & communication.

To set facts straight we were two regular Johnnies, with regular marketing and communication jobs. Till one day, over tea (another of our common loves), we got started talking about how sick we were with the way communication was being done around us. The only choices left to us were to switch to another field or to start off something on our own.

And since communication is too intrinsic to us, we just decided to start off something on our own. Voila... Windchimes saw the light of day!

Trust us when we say that it was not easy. To get hurled from the security of our 9 to 5 jobs to the insanity of setting up a company was overwhelming at most times. What kept us going was our belief in the potential of social media. In our previous corporate roles we had asked ourselves countless times, ‘How do we make communication more real, more human?’ and Windchimes had become our answer.

We started out in 2008 with the dream of setting up a social media agency that will help brands and companies tap into the potential of word-of-mouth. And to help fulfill this dream, we have some of the sharpest minds in the business working with us. It gives us immense pleasure to work with some of the most innovative companies in India and help them see the joy of social media and at the same time meet their business objectives.

Every single day our faith gets reaffirmed that social media is the future of communication.

And each day that passes by we believe more that we can change the way communication is done.

Why Windchimes?

Did you know that keeping in mind the spirit of social media we even attempted crowd sourcing to arrive at a name for our company? But the name ‘Windchimes’ just popped into our heads out of nowhere, and just stuck there. And to surprise there is indeed immense similarity between Windchimes and what we do.

Wind chimes are probably the only musical instrument that has no tabulated process of playing. The ball in the center hits the side rods at random and yet produces gentle soothing and melodious sound.

Similar to word of mouth comprising conversations that can happen anywhere, anytime, anyplace. Powered by social media, however, one can find a method in this madness.

We, with our ideas, our belief in communication and our passion, hope to be the wind that will produce melodious music for the brands in the online world.
