1. Growing up, I was always thinking about what I could do to
change my life style. For years, I couldnt 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 Ive
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
didnt 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 wasnt 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
2. 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 softwares 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.
3. 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, its 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!
