my story

Beautiful Bangladesh is a small country in South Asia & that’s where I am from. 

Being an only child in a broken family doesn’t help – but I have had an awesome life and things turned out pretty okay.

I was born on Mar 30th, 2000 (though all my certs say its 2001). I went to a decent school called Gachbari modern academy, then joined a college called Ideal College & then did my  in Marketing from  Online Udemy. I lived with my mom for the entirety who loves me to death. 

Being an only Boy in Family – I received all the love I could from my immediate and extended family which made me soft & vulnerable but If I had to do it all over again, I don’t think I would have changed anything. 

I had a lot of friends when I was in school – and if given a chance, those are the days I would want back. Playing cricket without a bit of worry all day, reading storybooks in the dark damaging your eyes, good old days. 

I was entrepreneurial from the school days – the first business, as I remember was kids toyes and I used to make fans with dc motors and propellers and sell them  for pocket money.

There’s a saying – How come you don’t know you are in the good old days, when you are in the good old days.

now am stay in deferent culture. and deferent Environment and the same time everything is missing my all  nostalgic moment. and I think about that every day now. 

SELLING THE Mobile  ACCESSORIES BUSINESS

I had an idea back in 2017! 

What if we sell mobile accessories and electronic equipment repairing doing my home and then start my local shop,  in Bangladesh? 

I know, it sounds silly and it doesn’t sound like an amazing idea when you think about it now. However, I am talking about 2017 when electonic product hight demant in the bangladeshi market. 

Facebook was getting popular and I thought, let’s start a FB page and see where it goes. 

& That’s what I did. 

I had 16000 BDT saved up from my work and I bought some unique. and then i buy some elactronic and mobile accessories in my local city shop. I launched the page with all the photos and hah! There it was. 

I became an entrepreneur. 

I won’t bore you with the details. Being the ideal mobile and all both  accessories store in Bangladesh, we did nice revenue numbers (around 19,000 BDT/month). and I eventually ended up selling the business for a 2X multiple. 

Do I miss the days when I used to only manage me all my business everything ?

I don’t. 

But I loved every bit of it.  

GOT INTO DIGITAL

I was doing my Online courses in Marketing from Udemy  around 2018. I was also working as a freelance writer on a marketplace called Odesk (now known as Upwork). Getting $8 for every projact was a dream and I was achieving my dream, life was good. And then I slowly got into SEO – search engine optimization.  

I started working as an SEO expert and things got a little better from the $8/projact days. And eventually, I came across people like Patt Flynn, Spencer Haws and saw that you could build website, fill it up with content, rank it and make money. 

I started doing that (my background in content and SEO helped) 

I sold my first bigest projact for $500 in 2018 and I never looked back. Digital became my thing. 

I then went on and got my certified in Digital Marketing, became one of the top rated freelancers in world when it comes to SEO & started my agencies – which are now doing over 100K USD/year in revenue. 

WHAT I DO NOW

I now live in Abu Dhabi, UAE. I initially came here in 2020 to do my first international client project meeting with and have been living here since. 

Abu Dhabi is 9 month hot , its sixth year safety city in the World, and people are nice. 

I spend most of my time now building businesses, creating content, managing a team of extremely talented people & thinking about the future. 

My income comes from the agencies I run, but i don't take fees  first  marketing consultancy.

I am constantly trying to diversify and add more revenue streams in my balance sheet. Not because I need it, but because I love the game. 

WHAT IS THE GOAL?

I often ask myself this very question. 

Why am I doing what I am doing? 

Is it because of the money? 

– Well, I got enough to live a lifetime (I am not a super materialistic person and I can’t spend money, nor do I like doing it)

Is it because of the legacy? 

– Do you know the name of your great great grandfather? You don’t. Unless you help build a country, run a revolution or do something extra ordinary like Musk sending people to Mars – I think you will be irrelevant within a few generations. 

The Bezos of the world, the Zuckerberg –  most people will probably not remember them in 300 years time. 

What’s the point then? 

Why work? Why create content? Why run an agency? Why do anything at all? ……

Honestly, I don’t know….. I wish I did. 

I just like the game of building businesses, creation and distribution of wealth and most of it, I like to make people empowered and install vision in them that they never knew they needed. 

If any of my experience any social status and any post, blog – anything at all has helped you even 1% to improve your career, get a job or start a business – I call it a success. 

The biggest joy is when you know your work is helping someone put food on the table. 

The 2nd biggest joy is to have garden (a traditional Bangladeshi street food). 

 buy way when my age 14 this time i earn money my hobby garden vegetable sales through.
