Client Testimonial
It's been an amazing experience to be associated with Ms. Chitra from RedWud.RedWud has helped us develop our digital marketing during the COVID time, when marketing as such was dynamic. What I like about them as a company, is that they are always genuine and personal! Not only do they have knowledgeable and experienced talent on staff, they are always enthusiastic, prompt, receptive and killer with last minute deadlines. I don't know how they do it, but my theory is that they love what they do and it comes across in the most positive way. I have enjoyed working with them and have learnt quite a bit from them. RedWud and Chitra are a good team to be working with.
I have not seen Chitra Baskar work for just short-term benefits for my hospital. She has always navigated all our marketing strategies towards addressing immediate needs without compromising on long-term and consistent growth.
Being a middle aged first generation doctor, starting my own clinic.. already very late with numerous clinics and hospitals around my native, REDWUD CREATIONS understood my fears and queries. Provided their services with enthusiasm. They also came for a field visit to my clinic in a remote place in salem district, all the way from Chennai..they had clear vision of what is to be done and even more clearly, what is not to be done.. I was also impressed with the unique Logo & Tagline for my clinic. And they finished their work on time. Their follow up with ideas for promotions and upliftment strategies is motivating.
