Founder | Creator | Strategist | Building AI, Leaders, & Ideas That Move Markets

For sponsorships + booking + speaking: hello@cred.marketing
------
I build AI, leaders, products, and ideas that move markets.

As a founder, creator, and strategist, I’ve taken products from concept to market, scaled sales engines, built teams, and created campaigns that drive both revenue and cultural relevance. Deeply integrating AI in every step of the way. 

My experience spans SaaS, AI, B2B, and beyond, working alongside the companies and executives shaping tomorrow’s most important industries. (Would love to work with yours!)

I operate where innovation meets execution. 
Blending the reach of a creator, the precision of a strategist, and the perspective of an AI founder who has built and scaled from the ground up. 

The result: content, campaigns, AI, and go-to-market strategies that cut through the noise and position brands at the forefront of their markets.

Founder

1 month of content in 1 hour

The playbook I use to see trends early:

(my unfair advantage going into 2026)

I’ve led top brand campaigns w/ some of the coolest companies.
And right now, I’m deep in planning mode for what’s next.

A huge focus for me is spotting where trends actually start.
Then plugging campaigns into those moments.
Cutting in while people are still deciding.

Cause this messy middle (where Q’s repeat, opinions clash, community hangs) is where the real signal lives.

That’s why Reddit for Business is ranking at the top for me right now.
I use Reddit to:

- uncover golden audience insight from authentic convos
- activate audiences before they’ve made up their minds
- carry signal all the way through the funnel without losing trust

One example: I used Reddit Pro keyword tracking to spot a pattern forming across multiple communities. That signal showed up weeks before it appeared on other platforms.

We shaped the campaign around that language. Message landed immediately. Performance followed.

My 2026 system looks like this:
listen first → identify repeated intent → shape the narrative → then distribute.

The real edge now isn’t louder marketing. It’s understanding people earlier andddd meeting them while they’re already deciding.

That’s the playbook I’m building around.

Reddit is such an unfair advantage.

feeling overwhelmed with content for 2026?

it might not be a content problem
but an AI tool stack problem.

too many tools, tabs, workflows would drive anyone crazy.

more AI hasn’t made content better.
it’s made it heavier.

the best creators I know aren’t running massive stacks.
they’re using 4 tools max.

because fewer decisions means more brain space saved.

here’s the stack to simplify your workflows:

𝟭. 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿
something to help you pressure-test ideas, structure thoughts, sharpen voice, get unstuck.

𝟮. 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹
used sparingly for clarity and flow.

𝟯. 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘀
catch thoughts fast!

𝟰. 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺
a calendar, checklist, or light scheduler to help you stay consistent + intentional.

that’s it.
everything else is complexity disguised as productivity.

AI should reduce friction, not add it.

if your stack feels heavy, that’s the signal.
simplify!!

how to prevent scaling the wrong ideas:

(despite what AI tells you!)

AI is making bad ideas scale faster than ever.
but the problem isn’t AI’s.
it’s us hitting publish too fast.

something sloppy, half-baked, or just wrong can now reach hundreds, thousands, even millions, before anyone notices.

so how do you avoid amplifying mistakes?

pressure-test your thinking first.

here’s how:
1. slow it down
don’t hit publish right after generating a post.
take a breath. review. reconsider.

2. read it out loud
does it sound like you?
does it convey what you actually mean?

3. flip perspectives
what would a critic say? 
what would someone outside your industry think?
(critics aren’t the end-all, but can be worthy of thought)

4. share with another human
even one person spotting a gap can save you a lot of trouble.

your job isn’t to make more content.
it’s to make better content.

slow down.
pressure-test.
then scale.

I’m revealing my 3 layer storytelling strategy:

(copy my hack for better, more human outputs!!)

AI can generate words, but it can’t automatically tell your story the way your brand does.

to get consistent, on-brand output, teach the model your narrative in 𝟯 𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿𝘀:

𝟭. 𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳𝘀
define the principles your brand stands for.

 • write 2-3 sentences describing your values.
 • prompt AI: “use these beliefs as the foundation for all messaging”
   example: “we believe marketing should build trust, not just clicks”

𝟮. 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘀
collect stories, case studies, or examples that capture your voice.

 • list 3-5 recurring stories or wins.
 • prompt AI: “reference these examples to illustrate points naturally”
   example: “highlight how brands scale with AI while keeping human creativity central”

𝟯. 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲
document recurring phrases, terminology, and tone.

 • compile 5-10 phrases or words you always use.
 • prompt AI: “write content using this tone, language, and style consistently.”
   example: “always lowercase, concise, educational, with punchy takeaways”

𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝘂𝘀𝗲:

 1. feed all three layers to the model before generating content
 2. ask AI to produce the first draft
 3. review, tweak, and add new examples to refine outputs

the better you teach, the less editing you need.
and AI becomes a true storytelling partner.

everyone’s asking how to use AI for content in 2026.
but that’s not really the question.
the real advantage is knowing what AI can’t do.

AI can generate ideas but it can’t live the moment that led to them.

AI can summarize what happened but it can’t show the tension while it was happening.

AI can clean up copy but it can’t recreate the back-and-forth, the second guessing, the almost wrong call.

that gap is where the human opportunity is.
in 2026, the content that actually works will be more real.
really, truly, real.

what to share instead of generic AI content:
• the decision you went back and forth on
• the thing that didn’t work + why
• what surprised you this week
• how something actually got approved
• what you changed after seeing real results
• the part of the process you normally skip over
• your real personality and human-ness

so show the tradeoffs, constraints, the imperfect execution.
what makes us truly humans, all giving our best go at this.

bc people don’t trust you because you sound smart.
they trust you because they understand how you think.

AI will keep raising the baseline.
but ultimately humans still win on depth and being real.

Strategic Landing Pages That Make You Look Premium, Sell Better & Stay Top-of-Mind

What if your website's conversion rates doubled?

I've analyzed over 100 websites and discovered a common issue: their conversion rates were alarmingly low.

Why?

Was it due to their poor design? Hell yes!!!

You might wonder about the role of design in conversions, but remember, it's the first impression.

If your website design doesn't hook the visitors, they never scroll. That means no scroll -> no interest in your offer, and that's how your conversion rates drop.

But fear not, I won't let your conversions stay low and make you feel sad.

Here's how I can help you:

If you don't have a website yet, congratulations! You're in the right place. I'll craft a website that looks stunning and boost your personal brand, which means more $$$.

OR

If you have a website but it isn't converting, what's stopping you? I'm here to revamp and optimize it for stellar conversion rates.

And 

If you're in need of a landing page to:

- Showcase your Offer
- Increase Newsletter sign-ups
- Schedule more appointments through sales pages

So why wait? Let's create one for you NOW. 

Each month I work with 5 Creators/Founders. 

Act now before all seats are booked! To do so, simply go to my 'Featured Section' and book a 1:1 discovery call or you can DM me to see if we're good fit.

I’m living some of the wildest days of my life.

Last Wednesday, I booked a flight for one reason only:

To meet some of my best LinkedIn connections in real life.

No agenda.
No “business trip.”

Just people who started as profile pictures…
and somehow became real friends.

The last 5 days felt unreal.

We went shopping just to buy slippers.

Played dodging cars so aggressively that strangers thought we’d lost our minds.

Drove up the hills to see a top view of Islamabad.

Stood inside Faisal Mosque, silent, massive, humbling.

Took a horse ride for the first time and
honestly, I absolutely loved it.

Traveled 23km just to drink our favorite mint margarita because logic was optional that day.

Snuck into a mall by joining a random family
because it was “family-only day” and rules felt negotiable.

One of us (Awais) took a cold shower in 5°C water like a psychopath.

Spent 45k in a single day and didn’t even remember where it went.

But it wasn’t all perfect.

We got scammed by a taxi driver, lesson learned.

The water was so cold our hands went numb after washing.

Junk food caught up with us. Health took a hit.

And still…

I’d do it all over again.

Because these weren’t just “fun days.”

They were life days.

The kind that remind you:

Connection beats comfort.

Memories beat money.

And some decisions only make sense after you make them.

P.S. Have you ever traveled just for people?
Worth it or not

------

Grateful beyond words.

Thanks Muhammad Awais Amjad, Muhammad Shahmeer, Muhammad Husnain Khalid and Subhan Ahmad Shahid for showing up and making these days unforgettable.

Still in Islamabad with the boys,
and hoping to make many more memories.

I’m writing this while waiting for my first-ever flight.

Solo.

No partner.
No “let me wait for someone.”

And here’s what’s surprising me the most:

I’m calm.
I’m confident.
I feel stupidly grateful.

And yeah, I’m excited in a way that feels unfamiliar.

No fear.
No panic.
Just curiosity.

(Also… I might actually say hi to the pilot. Let’s see 😄)

What’s hitting me right now is this feeling of earned independence.

Like, I chose this.

And that changes everything.

So here’s my message to anyone stuck in hesitation mode:

If you’re delaying travel because
you’re “waiting for the right person”
or scared of doing it alone,
listen carefully.

When things get hard, most people won’t be there anyway.

A few will.

The rest disappear.

So why keep postponing your life?

Yes, solo travel feels scary at first.
That fear is real.

But here’s my challenge to you:
book the flight anyway.

You don’t outgrow fear by waiting.
You outgrow it by moving.

You’ll thank yourself for it.

Not me.

 P.S. What do you remember most from your first flight?

One thing I failed at in 2025 and I’m owning it.

I promised myself I’d create more videos.

I didn’t.

At the start of 2025, I set a non-negotiable rule:

No matter what, I’ll show up on video.

Reality had other plans.

The first two quarters went wild.

Fully booked.
Dream clients.
Some of my favorite landing pages I’ve ever built.

And quietly… my videos disappeared.

Not because I didn’t care.
Not because I wasn’t serious.

Because I made a dangerous mistake:

I relied on motivation instead of a system.

I recorded “when I felt like it.”
And every time I felt like it… I didn’t have time.

That’s on me.

No structure = broken promises to yourself.

But that changes now.

My trip ends on Jan 16.

From the very next day, I’m running this system, no drama, no excuses:

→ Collect viral ideas in batches
→ Write 2–3 scripts every week
→ Record at least 2 videos per week (more if possible)
→ Send everything to Podcutz for editing, no bottlenecks

2025 taught me the lesson.
2026 is where I apply it.

If you dropped the ball last year too, this is your sign:

Fix the system, not your motivation.

Let’s go.

P.S. What’s the biggest mistake you made in 2025?

Some premium landing pages I designed last year 👇

Premium Landing Pages

After building over 28 websites and landing pages last year, this is the most valuable lesson I’ve learned.

You think you’re competing with competitors.

You’re not.

That’s a comforting lie.

You’re competing with something that’s shrinking every single day:

Your audience’s attention span.

Yes, everyone knows this.

Almost no one designs like they believe it.

How do I know?

Because I audit landing pages daily and still see:

→ Long, bloated headlines that say nothing
→ Generic copy that could belong to anyone
→ Stock images pretending to be trust

And then founders say:

“Why aren’t we getting leads?”

Because your page is bleeding attention before it earns trust.

So how do you actually compete for attention?

It’s simpler and harsher than you think.

Imagine someone walks up to you and says:

“Hey, I know you’re stuck with [exact painful problem].

I’ve already solved it.

Here’s how.”

You don’t scroll.
You don’t hesitate.
You listen.

Why?

Because your pain was named.
And a solution was promised, fast.

That’s the rule.

If your landing page doesn’t:

→ Call out the pain instantly
→ Remove confusion immediately
→ Signal relief within seconds

You’ve already lost.

Not to competitors.

To silence.

And silence never converts.

Secret!!!

Today was the last day with them.

And before life speeds up again… 
I want to lock in what the last 10 days taught me.

First, I’m genuinely grateful I got to start the year like this.

Not with pressure. Not with noise.

But with laughter, movement, and real conversations.

Here’s what stayed with me:

→ Your environment edits your thinking, whether you like it or not.

Being around the right people doesn’t just motivate you.

It silently raises your standards.

You start thinking bigger without forcing it.

→ Travel isn’t a break for founders, it’s a reset.

This was my first real trip, and I already know one thing:

mental clarity doesn’t come from grinding harder.

It comes from stepping away long enough to hear yourself think.

→ Money matters, pretending otherwise is naive.

Yes, money can buy happiness.
Or at least the space to create it.

Experiences, freedom, options, none of that is free.

→ Energy is more valuable than time.

You can have free hours and still feel dead inside.

The right people + new places recharge you faster than any productivity hack.

→ The internet gives you reach. Real life gives you depth.

Online connections are powerful.

But meeting people in real life turns “network” into bond.

→ Comfort kills stories. Discomfort creates them.

Every memorable moment from this trip came from saying yes
when comfort said no.

This trip ends here.

But the version of me it created doesn’t.

Already planning the next one in April or May.

Different places. Same intention.

P.S. When was the last time you stepped out of your routine long enough to reset?

Every founder I meet has the same landing page problems… and they never realize these are the reasons their pages don’t convert.

I only have 60 seconds to fix them for you, so pay attention 

➡️ Problem #1

Founders forget one truth: 

People buy when risk feels low. 

If your landing page doesn’t show a guarantee, safety net, or trust marker, conversions will flatline.

➡️ Problem #2

You copied your competitor’s landing page. 

Which is genius… unless they’re also broke.

Instead, use competitor research for inspiration, not duplication. 

Build your page around your customer’s psychology, not someone else’s mistakes.

➡️ Problem 3

You wrote ‘We are the leading provider of…’ 

Congrats. 

You sound exactly like the other 300,000 ‘leading providers.’

Replace that fluff with a crystal-clear promise: 

What you do, for who, and the outcome they’ll get.

➡️ Problem 4

You built your landing page like a 
homepage, trying to say everything. 

But a landing page only has one job: 

Drive one action. The rest is a distraction.

Strip it down to one CTA, one offer, one outcome. 

That’s how you get focus and conversions.

Fix these 4 things, and your landing page will convert way more visitors into clients.

My father started his business at 19.

I started mine at 21.

Just a two-year gap.

Sounds similar, right?

Completely different worlds.

When my father started, there was no backup plan.

That business was survival.

No social media.
No marketing playbooks.
No “content strategy.”

Clients came from one place only:

Word of mouth

So he built everything on two things:

Honesty and quality work.

Slowly, that reputation turned into trust.

Trust turned into big clients.

Big clients turned into millions in sales.

And because of that, he gave us a life most people only aim for.

Now compare that to my start.

When I began my web design business, failure wouldn’t have ended me.

I could’ve joined his business anytime.

But I never let myself think that way.

I treated my business like I had no safety net.

12-hour days.
No weekends.
Missed family gatherings.
Zero shortcuts.

Not because I had to but because I wanted something of my own.

Three years later, I can say this without hesitation:

It was worth it.

But here’s the real reason I’m telling this story.

We all look for role models in podcasts, books, and Twitter threads.

Sometimes, the best one is standing right in front of us.

For me, that’s my father.

Whatever business sense I have, it started with him.

Whatever confidence I’m building, it’s because I watched him build first.

That hunger to do more, to go further, I didn’t invent it.

I inherited it.

Different paths.
Same foundation.

And I’m proud of that.

P.S. Is your father your first business role model too?

A belief I’m mercilessly unlearning:

“I’ll post when things slow down.”

Thing is… things never slow down when you’re building something real.

Another client message.

There’s always another screaming deadline.

Another problem shoving itself in your face right now.

December brutally proved that to me.

Work was good. Busy. Overloaded. Exhausting. 

And LinkedIn quietly became optional.

Not because I didn’t care.


But because I told myself I’d come back “when I had time.”

I never did.

And that’s the trap.

Because visibility doesn’t disappear loudly.

 It fades silently, while you’re “being productive.”

So January isn’t about motivation.

Or waiting to feel inspired.

It’s about discipline.

Showing up even when it’s inconvenient.
Posting even when life is chaotic.
Building visibility while building everything else.

Because long-term leverage doesn’t come from intensity.

It comes from relentless, unforgiving consistency.

P.S. Do you have a plan for next week or just hope it happens?

Tomorrow, at this exact time, I’ll be in a different city.

Solo (just for a short time though.)

A little nervous.
More excited.

And fully responsible for whatever happens next.

This is my first time traveling alone to another city.

And yeah, that fear is real.

But so is the pull to do things that stretch you.

The crazy part?

When I land, I won’t be alone.

I’ll be meeting some of my best LinkedIn connections I made two years ago when I had almost nothing but consistency and a LinkedIn account.

Different cities.
Different lives.

And now, finally, real life.

On top of that, I made a promise to myself on Jan 1:

30 days of posting. No excuses.

I’m on Day 5.

And I’m continuing this challenge while traveling.

I don’t know how clean the posts will be.
I don’t know where I’ll write them.
I don’t know if I’ll be tired, distracted, or overwhelmed.

But I do know this:

Momentum doesn’t care about comfort.

One thing I’m deeply grateful for,
every expense on this trip is on me.

Flights.
Food.
Shopping.
Everything.

Not because it’s flashy.
But because it’s proof.

I built something that moves with me.

P.S. Have you ever traveled solo?
How was the experience?
Any tips you’d give someone doing it for the first time?
