Growing up, I was always thinking about what I could do to change my life style. For years, I
couldn’t come up with anything, but during my 2
nd
semester at Institute of Management
Sciences, things started to get better.
My Story
I was born in 1991 in a small village of Swabi. Grown there as same as like other children
grew.
After getting admission in a school I started my business by selling notes, bringing
books etc, for my class fellow from different shops. That became a business at that time
for me as I’ve saved a small amount in the start.
I got motivated as my first venture become successful and so started selling Mobile
phones and their accessories etc in very small age. This one became profitable too and
people started calling me a Mobile Guru/Master.
BUT
This didn’t mean that I stopped my struggle here. The spirit residing in me was
convincing me to do more, to expand my sale to the rest of the world without any
limitation. But suddenly, all things around me were changed due to the death of my
father and so I stopped my struggle for some time.
Now each and everything became new for me. The people, their and their behavior, the
environment, the food and in the middle of all these problems, only I stood alone. I was
the one standing alone.
However, I completed my Intermediate with normal marks and started struggling for
the admission in a university and accidently (feeling lucky now), I listed in Institute of
Management Sciences Peshawar. On the other side, our financial condition wasn’t so
good, so like most of other students, I also started my search for something which I can
do to earn extra money. At that time by mistakenly I received a message from an
unknown number that if you want to earn money online? Send me your email address
and that became the turning point of my whole life till now. I sent him email which were
created with the help of one of my friend as I was not aware from internet like stuff.
After getting the procedure through email I started my first online journey which was
known as PTC (Paid to click) business. After 7 months of hard work and loosing almost
RS 70,000, I came to the point that I am working on wrong side.
So I invested my remaining money in another popular niche at that time called HYIP
(High yield investment programs) (Double shah in Pakistan is the pure example of this
business model). From the market I had generated more than $3000/- (Rs 300000) In
45 days. But in few days after joining, I came to know that earning money through this
method is HARAM in Islam and the loss ratio is higher than profit. So again, I came
back to the place with nothing in my hand.
After quitting my work on HYIP I turned my luck in some other fields too including:
? Sharing crack version software’s for earning purpose (failed)
? Created a blog with the name of Mashable.pk (I was sued than as the name
was registered trademark) once again failed.
I was so much disappointed that I think if I set for explanation, then the words would
come to end but at this stage one of my friend motivated me to start blogging with my
own brand and finally the birth of my new baby child blog happened with the name of
Techvela.
After seeing so much failure now I was on a right path with right people (blogging
community friends) on right niche with a clear vision/mission/aim in my mind to start
helping people instead of earning money to protect people from Ponzi schemes. With
the Grace of Almighty Allah and my hard day night work.
I listed in Pakistan top 12 bloggers list in 2013 and top 10 bloggers list in 2014
convectively.
I created and sold several successful blogs including my first one named Techvela.
In 2013, I was selected as incubate at Entrepreneurship development center.
In 2014, I received the best idea presenter award in a competition with 60 other ideas
presenters held in KP by Peshawar 2.0 with the collaboration of Pasha Industry
Pakistan. At the same time, I was featured on Tribune and Techjuice.
I left my physical job at Legacy Pharma, Tasteintrain, and AVT Khyber in the same era.
In 2014, I started my work at Institute of Management Sciences by arranging different
seminars on freelancing, blogging, apps and games development to educate more and
more people toward IM|Business (Internet marketing).
Today
I have 12 employees, 3 successful blogs, done 157+ projects, 87+ students enrolled for
learning (including teachers of Imsciences/UET).
And finally in 2015, I started KOKANE in joint venture with Mubashir Riaz from the
money I earned online. He is a freelancer, blogger and more importantly my room Mate.
Through all my Entrepreneurial journey, I had several failures (many of them are not-
listed above). I simply learned from those and kept moving forward with my will and the
prayers of my Mother. I have only one lesson for those who say that I have no skills, it’s
not possible for me etc etc, the definition of disability (lack of work/skills) is something
that will hinder you from being able to do something. I found my purpose. I found my
strength, and now I want you to find your one!
