Testimonials

What people who've worked with us say:
Asad is a true wunderkind, demonstrating extraordinary acumen in organizational management and marketing at KodeKloud. His strategic construction of an effective team structure and successful implementation of the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) ensured consistent attainment of our goals. His leadership at the helm of the marketing team contributed significantly to our 4x growth. Asad's unparalleled analytical skills and numerical prowess steered our data-driven decision-making, leading to ambitious targets being set and achieved.

Beyond the measurable outcomes, Asad’s standout qualities include his exceptional intellect, quick problem-solving, and an innate ability to motivate and bring out the best in his team. Often, I found myself describing him as a 'genie out of the bottle' for his innovative solutions in challenging situations. I am confident in recommending Asad, a professional who embodies dedication and talent, and who will undoubtedly bring tremendous value to any organization fortunate enough to have him.

When I need to give an example of true drive in life, Ali comes to my mind. But, the things that distinguish him from other driven people are that once he feels the drive to do something (1) he immediately goes into action mode and executes and (2) that - no matter the obstacles - Ali finds a way.

If you need someone to kickstart something of the ground and you don’t know how to do it, hire Ali. He’s gonna make it happen.

Hire him, right now. He is in his early 20s but he has the wisdom and intelligence of a 40-year-old. He is living proof that homeschooling works best in the real world. If you don’t hire him, you're basically saying you hate money.

He was homeschooled, he didn’t go to college, and he just helped the company he hired me to work hit $5 million ARR. How? He isn’t bound by the constraints instilled upon us over decades of conditioning. He isn’t built for the 9-5, yes sir, cycle. He is a heavy-hitting go getter, and will get you results.

The man has principles coming out the wazoo, he has structure, and enterprise to spare. His enthusiasm for work is contagious.

People consider a win when they make $100,000/year after working for 10 years, he hit that at 23 with 5-years already under him. People call it a win when their campaign makes a million a year he did that by the age of 19, and in one month by the age of 23.

He understands organizational needs, he understands the market, and he understands what it takes to bridge the gap between products and customer’s needs.

If only we had Ali on our team earlier.

Ali’s input had high value from day one with his enthusiasm and knowledge around startup development. His network is impressive! He gets-it-done!I hope we get to work together in the future and wouldn’t be surprise if Ali manages me at that point.

What do we do?

1. Identify Issues and Create Clarity_

Strategize, with you, in determining what actions to take, how to execute them, who should be responsible, and ensuring consistent follow-through on every business component.

2. Build Cultrue_

That's an intentional typo .

Instead of systems - we build a rhythm and culture of performance using clarity and transparency.

3. Get $hit Done_

Execution support to complete rocks, launch new funnels, and hire the right team members.

(6-8 months later) and, then what?


Most projects at this stage are structured enough to hire and manage a full-time COO, where our role is to help with a smooth transition. Some projects, however, do require a few extra months of support before they can scale up on their own.
