What a Story

Working day and night endlessly never gives better results.

I learned it the hard way. Despite warnings from my team, I was too eager to get things done quickly, which led to burnout.

I learned to delegate more often and execute marketing strategies while I regain my momentum back.

I am also trying to teach others what I have learned in my journey.

Chief Marketing Officer

I expanded my borders and volunteered to improve company processes, sales operations, CRM optimization, reporting system, recruitment, and writing all the while adding several other functions under my umbrella. 

I was promoted to Chief Operating Officer. My goal has been to make the lives of our team easier and support the pillars with my diverse set of skills.

Chief Operating Officer

Within six months of joining, I was offered my first project as a creative director.

I created a couple of videos for HP and learned the "right way" of producing explainer videos in the process. I learned from the best and combined that knowledge with my skills to create and help clients with explainer videos and scriptwriting.

Creative Director

I started as a freelance writer for the company. It was one of my several clients.

But soon enough, I fell in love with What a Story and applied as a full-timer.

Despite being experienced, I was struggling with GAD (non-diagnosed) and had a hard time coming out of my shell.

I assume the cause was my three years of WFH and constant bullying from people close to me.

But I overcame it with the help of co-founders of the company.

Copywriter

Stealth Startup

I am creating a SaaS for co-founders and B2B SaaS owners. Currently at MVP stage.

Co-Founder

Leading web Solutions

Due to the Covid catastrophe in 2020, I had to leave my job and return to my homeland. The situation was tense.

Later that year, I married my wife. And I started freelancing again to help B2B owners with video production and Ad copywriting.

I had only two clients (recurring business), and my copies helped them generate about $1.2 million worth of sales for their clients (in 6 months)!

The majority of my time was now spent writing sales letters and website copy.

Suqluk

My first big break as a Video Producer and Copywriter.

After pitching a marketing strategy back in 2018, I was invited to join one of the biggest e-commerce platforms in the Middle East. I was given my own office and team, and together we built our B2B SaaS, E-commerce Platform, Payment Gateway, Several Ad Videos, Explainer Videos, Radio Ads, and Marketing Campaigns. I doubled the B2B sales within the first six months of contact.

I mastered team leadership, product management, design, and copywriting skills.

Self-employed

After creating 100+ websites, I retired from website and software development and moved toward my first love - filmmaking. I started pitching for video editing and scriptwriting, and ultimately found my peace in explainer video production. Later I hired an animator and designer. We created 19 videos, and generated $11,000 in sales.

Video Producer

Philia Solutions

I needed to explore a foreign market, so I paused freelancing and got myself hired as a web developer. I learned marketing funnels with my CEO, enjoyed crafting beautiful websites for business owners, and developed my own strategies and automation to increase revenue for our clients and the team.

Senior Web Designer

A neighbor needed a website for their restaurant, so I designed one. Included a payment gateway and they loved me for it. Within the next 2 years, I created around 50 websites for retail shopkeepers, restaurants, and e-commerce stores.
I learned the value of web design and predicted the uprise of AI and the future of SaaS back then.
Graduated in 2015.

Web Designer

Amazon

I directly handled 3rd party sellers and helped them sell their products while generating revenue for the company. I was good with technology, and I needed to advance my people skills, so I found sales as the perfect opportunity (for an internship). Third year in College.

Sales Associate

I started as a hacker (not a proud one), living off ramen and soft drinks. For just $2 I would hack a Facebook account. Eventually, I was slapped with guilt and invested my time in front-end development instead. First year in college.

Basement Hacker
