GTM strategy comes first—before you build. That’s how startups win: clear ICP, sharp positioning, and a sales motion that converts. And don’t let them tell you that you “need to change.” As an entrepreneur, you just need to get used to being a little strange. That’s your edge. That’s your thought leadership. That’s founder-led sales—pre-product. I didn’t follow a traditional path—I built one that worked. As an immigrant and a single parent in tech, you are limited to choices. High school dropout from Pakistan → UK → Melbourne → Greece → U.S. East Coast → Palo Alto. Over the last 10+ years, I’ve led GTM and closed $50M+ in SaaS revenue across startups and global orgs like Zendesk and Oracle. I specialize in enterprise strategic sales, founder-led GTM, and high-velocity pipelines that go from zero → multi-year deals. I also coach executives through career transitions, relocations, and high-impact life shifts. First client raised $3M pre-product (Peter Thiel) Most recent outcome: $44M acquisition (Palo Alto Networks) Now, at Zero to Millions Club, I help early-stage founders and teams build go-to-market systems that actually close—paying customers, not just traffic.
