Not a channel specialist. A growth architect.

Repeatable Growth Systems

Not campaigns. Structured, scalable systems that compound. Diagnosed five structural problems at Mashreq and solved each sequentially, producing 77% CAC reduction at 50x scale.

Business Model Adaptability

B2C, PLG, Enterprise GTM, SaaS demand gen, monetisation. Five distinct business models. Each requiring different acquisition logic. Each producing revenue.

Revenue Accountability

Pipeline, retention, monetisation. Not vanity metrics. $300M+ influenced revenue. 10:1 LTV:CAC. $800K ARR in Year 1 at Zapcom. Revenue-line ownership.

AI-native Leverage

Automation, agents, intelligence. Built autonomous SDR workflows (6.7x throughput), AI search visibility frameworks, and LLM citation systems. Not experimenting. Deploying.

Proof organised by business model, not job title.

Each system required different acquisition logic, metrics, and scale mechanics.

B2C Scale Systems

Mashreq Priority Banking, Mashreq Gold, Insurance Portfolio. Consumer acquisition at scale with unit economics discipline.

Sequential problem-solving across audience, creative, conversion, retargeting, and channel diversification. 77% CAC reduction while scaling 50x. $300M+ attributed revenue.
