The story you tell is the company you become.

Public Relations at Social Sherpa is where reputation, narrative and visibility meet. We help founders, brands and institutions earn trust the long way — through credible voices, considered storytelling and the press that genuinely matters.

Meet the practice lead

Two decades of relationships.
One disciplined practice.

Our PR practice is led by Kulveen Narula, a communications professional with over twenty years across hospitality, healthcare, retail, telecom, education and lifestyle. From running national PR campaigns at Vaishnavi Corporate Communications — including the Tata Nano launch, the Singapore Airlines India debut and crisis communication for Tata Chemicals — to building corporate communications at Reliance Industries and Nayati Healthcare, Kulveen has spent her career turning complex stories into trusted public narratives.

She brings the rigour of legacy PR — a black book of editors, instinct for the right angle, and a steady hand in a crisis — and pairs it with how brands actually grow today: founder voice, FAM trips, podcasts, owned media and integrated digital storytelling.

What kind of PR do you need?

Get In Touch
I'm launching something new.

Whether it's a product, a property or a whole company, the first wave of press defines how you're remembered. We build the launch story, the media list and the rollout sequence so the announcement lands clean and travels far.

I'm scaling and need to be taken seriously.

You've outgrown your origin story. We position the founders as category voices, secure thought leadership in the right publications, and make sure the brand shows up where decisions get made — not just where audiences scroll.

Something has gone wrong.

Crisis communication isn't a press release; it's a response architecture. We help you control the narrative, brief stakeholders, manage media exposure and protect long-term equity while the situation is still hot.

I need to be in the conversation, always.

Always-on PR is for brands where silence costs visibility. Monthly story pipelines, editor relationships, by-lined columns, podcast placements and reactive comments — built so you're never absent when your category is being written about.

I want to build my personal brand.

Founders, authors, hospitality owners, doctors, designers. We turn expertise into a public point of view through interviews, opinion pieces, podcasts, awards and considered social presence.

I'm not sure yet.

That's fine. Let's talk. We'll help you figure out where your reputation stands today and what the next 12 months of communications should actually look like.

Get In Touch
Listen
We audit how you're being talked about today — across press, search, review platforms and inside your own teams. The brief is built on what we find, not what we assume.
Position
We define the narrative, the spokespeople, the proof points and the publications that matter. This is the story everyone — internally and externally — tells the same way.
Place
We pitch, brief, host and earn. Press releases, FAM trips, bylined articles, podcast bookings, award entries, launch events — every output ladders back to the positioning.
Scale & Report
As results grow, so do your campaigns. We scale what’s working and provide transparent reporting so you always know your ROI.

Reputation isn't built loud. It's built right.

Whether you're launching, scaling, defending or simply tired of being the best-kept secret in your category — we'd like to hear what you're working on.

FAQs

What's the difference between PR and digital marketing?

Digital marketing buys attention. PR earns it. Marketing puts your message in front of audiences you've paid to reach; PR gets credible third parties — editors, journalists, podcasters, reviewers — to tell your story to audiences who already trust them. Most brands need both; we make sure they reinforce each other.

Do you work on retainer or per project?

Both. Launches, crises and one-off announcements work well as projects. Thought leadership, media relations and reputation management need a retainer to compound. We'll recommend whichever fits the goal — not whichever is bigger.

How long before we see press coverage?

Real placements take 4 to 12 weeks from kickoff. The first month is research, positioning and pitching; coverage typically starts landing from week six onwards. We are honest about timelines because no good editor is on a 48-hour turnaround.

Can you guarantee coverage in a specific publication?

No reputable PR partner can — and any agency that does is selling you advertorials, not earned media. What we can guarantee is the right pitch, to the right editor, with the right story. Our hit rate is high because we don't pitch what isn't newsworthy.

Do you handle regional and trade press, not just national?

Yes. Regional press, trade publications and category-specific media often move the needle more than mainstream coverage. Kulveen has worked across UP, Gujarat, Maharashtra and the wider Indian subcontinent, and we run trade campaigns for B2B clients regularly.

How do you measure PR results?

We report on placements, share of voice, sentiment, audience quality, search visibility, message pull-through and downstream impact on enquiries or hiring — depending on what the brief asked for. Vanity reach is the easy number; we focus on the ones that matter.

Will PR work alongside our existing marketing or social agency?

Absolutely. PR is most effective when it's plugged into a wider growth ecosystem. We brief your marketing, social and content teams on every story so coverage gets amplified — and we're happy to coordinate directly with other agencies you already work with.
