BIO

Udit Goenka is an entrepreneur and the marketing mastermind behind Power Up Hosting, GoPBN, FunnelBake, PitchGround among other ventures. While still in his teenage years, Udit began his online career as graphics design, branding consultant, software consultant building a strong customer base in less than a year. During this time he was able to work with and develop relationships with numerous business owners who found themselves struggling to bring great products into the market. In 2011, while working as a full-time student at the University of Mumbai, Udit helped bring one product into the mass market and made over $300,000 in less than 5 days. It was then that Udit realized that his calling was to spearhead product launch and brand awareness. He then partnered up with an existing friend and fellow entrepreneur, Oscar Hernandez, to form the brain trust that is now Power Up Hosting. Since 2012, Udit Goenka has been the face of Power Up Hosting, bringing a company from relative anonymity to success with absolutely no marketing budget. Udit was able to navigate the unforgiving waters of the IaaS market to bring afloat a small but very well equipped company to compete with much bigger players in their hometown of Los Angeles. In 2015, Udit was featured on INC.com’s startup section. While working on all these years, Udit also started consulting SaaS business as he started working on a side project FunnelBake and PitchGround. In 2017, he started working on FunnelBake, a Sales CRM engine and launched a small MVP in early 2018 and now has over 900+ customers for FunnelBake. In October 2018, he launched PitchGround a unique crowdfunding platform for SaaS companies and in just 1 year of its existence, PitchGround has helped companies raise over $1.1 million and has acquired over 10,000+ paying customers. In 2019, Udit made an exit from Power Up Hosting, Inc. and GoPBN to concentrate fully on FunnelBake and PitchGround
