Founder Helping You Grow | Follow for Daily Leadership & Growth Insights | Serial Entrepreneur | Ex-RBC

Most $1M-$50M B2B companies hit the same wall: what got you here won't get you there.

Your sales team follows five different versions of your "standard" process. Marketing and sales operate in silos. You're building with borrowed tools and broken playbooks. The same cold email sequences everyone uses. The same CRMs with data nobody trusts.

I help revenue leaders build systems that actually scale.

WHAT MAKES MY APPROACH DIFFERENT

My story isn't typical - at 23, as a single dad, I took an unexpected turn into corporate. In big companies like RBC and Mackenzie, I led teams from 2 to 550 people, learning about product development and large-scale expansion. But I constantly wondered: "Am I too late to start my own business?"

That internal struggle led me to leave corporate safety and build two startups in seven years - eventually exiting basix.ai, a sales automation platform backed by Forum Ventures. That experience taught me something critical: the gap between theory and execution is where most scaling companies die.

Now I bridge three worlds:
→ Corporate operations experience (scaled systems at Fortune 500 level)
→ Entrepreneurial experience (built and exited SaaS company)  
→ Technical automation expertise (hands-on with Clay, Make.com, n8n, HubSpot)

WHAT I'VE HELPED CLIENTS ACHIEVE

→ Generated 9-figure revenue growth for clients and employers
→ Scaled bootstrapped businesses to 7 and 8-figure heights
→ Built full TAM in Clay for enterprise outbound teams
→ Developed GTM playbooks that get used (not filed away)
→ Created systems that let leaders lead again

I don't just provide strategy. I walk the path with you. From Fortune 500 boardrooms to founder-led scrappy startups, I bring operational depth and clarity to every engagement.

MY PHILOSOPHY

Most consultants give you frameworks. I give you forward motion.

I don't chase buzzwords. I build revenue engines, simplify execution, and unlock leadership potential with precision and empathy.

This is not theoretical - it's battle-tested across 10 roles in two companies before venturing out, building two startups, and now advising through Techstars and Predictable Revenue.

If you're stuck in complexity or scaling feels like survival, let's talk about bringing order to chaos and traction to your strategy.

LinkedIn is a sacred place. 

Why? Because 100s of millions of human hours are invested in it. 

In the search for knowledge, truth, and a better life. 

Only here can you meet someone with words and change their lives forever. 

It's a place to shift perspectives.

It’s a place where you can stop somebody from suffering. 

It’s a place where you persuade people to live a better life. 

It's a place to make this world a better place.

There’s no reason you shouldn’t be changing the beliefs of people you can help.

Saving them from the consequences of not getting your help with their problems. 

If you’re a world-class guru in any space who can help humans with their knowledge, mentorship, books, coaching programs or events.. 

You should show up inevitably. 

Imagine someone having the cure to cancer, and not preaching it. 

He’s doing no good to mankind. And so is everyone who has knowledge, but he is silent. 

What you do is precious. 

And I want to help you. 

With everything. 

I can help you execute the same playbook that Tony Robbins, and every world class heavy hitter expert follows to shift beliefs, transform people and make a fortune. 

With the power of Linkedin.

Because I believe in making this world a better place. 

I will not leave a pebble unturned to do that. That’s my way of becoming a useful member of this beautiful society. That’s my way of paying my debts to humanity. 

Do you want to connect to discuss the map of treasure? Message me and I will consult you.

We hosted Iftar in Basti.

Just me and my people.
Under the open sky.
In Allah’s blessings.

No fancy setup. No noise.
Just peace!

As the sun set and we made dua together, you could feel the barakah in the air.

There were so many blessings on the table.
But the biggest one was being there together. (and praying)

Sometimes you don’t need luxury.
You just need the right people, a clean heart, and gratitude.

Alhamdulillah for moments like this.

Working with smart people is great.
Working with kind and humble people is next-level amazing.

In today’s world, talent is everywhere.

But character? That’s rare.

The smartest person in the room can elevate performance.

The kindest person in the room elevates everyone.

Over time, I’ve realized something simple:
Teams who truly thrive aren't just high performing, they're high trust.

The best teams I’ve seen:

• Share credit naturally
• Listen more than they speak
• Assume positive intent
• Compete hard, without arrogance

Skills build businesses.
Character builds cultures.
As leaders, we should absolutely hire for competence. But we should never compromise on humility.

💬 What qualities do you value most in the people you work with?

👉 Repost if you agree

Client: “Our content gets likes… but no leads.”
Me: “That’s because you’re missing one thing.”

I’ve seen this across hundreds of agency posts we’ve seen on LinkedIn.

Different founders.
Different industries.
Same mistake.

They post content…
But not conversion content.

Here’s what actually works, every single time.

First, the post has to be interrupted.

If your opening sounds polite, safe, or explanatory, it’s dead on arrival.

The best-performing posts start with:
→ a belief founders are wrong about
→ a mistake they’re quietly making
→ or a result that feels uncomfortable to hear

Most people fake this part:
What you tried?
What failed.
What you changed.
What actually moved revenue, not reach.

That’s why posts with real timelines, numbers, and mistakes outperform “value threads” by miles.

The ending where most people fail. 
Not motivation.
Not a generic CTA.

A great decision that reader has to confront something about their own approach:
→ something they should stop (content that’s not converting)
→ something they should test (ideas that could generate revenue)
→ something they’ve been avoiding (uncomfortable truths they ignored)

That’s how we build posts for clients that don’t just get seen, they generate pipeline. 

Attention gets the scroll.
Truth builds trust.
Clarity creates demand.

PS: Be honest, which part of your posts do you usually rush: the opening, the proof, or the close?

I've sat across from founders with millions in revenue, massive teams, and beautiful offices.
Most of them were miserable. And none of them could figure out why.

And honestly - I get it.

Because from the outside, everything looked perfect.
The numbers were growing. The brand was visible. The awards were on the wall.

But behind closed doors, the story was completely different.

Teams running on empty.
Clients who felt like transactions.
A founder grinding through every day, wondering if any of it actually meant something.

That's not success. 
That's a very expensive version of being lost.

The founders who are actually fulfilled aren't always the ones with the biggest revenue or the loudest brand.

But they all have one thing in common.

"They build with positive intention."

✅ Every hire means something.
✅ Every client relationship is built on real value.
✅ Every decision ties back to a purpose bigger than just hitting a number.

That's the approach we took at Skylift Marketing. And it didn't just build a business - it built something worth being proud of. 💙

PS: What’s one area where you’re focusing on long-term growth instead of quick wins?

Stop promoting “leaders.” 
You’re probably making your company worse.

Here’s the hard truth: most “leaders” don’t actually lead. They just turn the workplace into a competition zone. 

When Satya Nadella took over Microsoft in 2014, the company was stuck.

Under Steve Ballmer, stack ranking had turned the workplace into an internal battlefield.

Employees fought each other instead of building together.
The loudest voices won.
The most impactful ones were invisible.

Nadella changed one thing.

He stopped rewarding visibility and started rewarding impact.

He recognized the people lifting teammates. Sharing knowledge. Fixing problems early. Leading quietly without needing a title or spotlight.

Microsoft went from $300B to over $3T in market cap.

Yes, strategy mattered.
But the culture shift came first.
And it started by recognizing the right kind of leader.

At Skylift, we look for this kind of leadership:

• Who lifts others, not just themselves
• Who fixes problems before they become disasters
• Who elevates the team, even when no one’s watching

They don’t need a title. They lead through impact.

If you ignore leadership in the gaps, your team will pay the price: low morale, high turnover, and stalled growth.

Lesson: Reward action, impact, and influence. That’s how companies win.

“This Eid, I want to do something that actually feels… very special to my team.”
(Thought this a few weeks back in my mind)

So what did we do?

So we put together Eidi envelopes for the whole Skylift team.
Just a small gesture to bring a little joy this Eid al-Fitr.

Watching everyone open their envelopes, the smiles, the laughs, the instant childhood flashbacks, that was the real win for me.

Because honestly, no matter how far we come,
The moment Eidi hits your hand… you’re 10 years old again. 🧡

I’m grateful for this team. 
For their hard work. 
For their energy.
And for reminding me that leadership isn’t always about big decisions, sometimes it’s small moments that matter.

Eid Mubarak from the whole Skylift family.
May your envelopes always be heavy. ✨

Now if you’ll excuse me… I already know everyone checked their envelope twice to see how much Eidi we gave them. 🤣
