The Dilemma of Pakistan's Startup Ecosystem! The startup ecosystem in Pakistan faces a dilemma: distinguishing between founders who sound smart and those who actually deliver results. In a landscape where pitch decks and eloquent narratives often overshadow practical execution, it's essential to focus on real impact. It's time we recognize the founders who have delivered resiliently despite the challenging environment. These are the individuals who go beyond the talk, navigating obstacles and creating tangible value. Let's champion the doers who not only have a vision but also the grit to make it a reality. Their resilience and dedication are what truly drive innovation and progress in Pakistan's entrepreneurial scene. This is not an issue unique to Pakistan; many startup ecosystems around the world, including Silicon Valley, India, China, and Europe, face similar challenges. In these markets, the emphasis on compelling pitches can sometimes overshadow the importance of actual execution. However, globally, there is a growing appreciation for founders who not only articulate a vision but also consistently deliver results and adapt to changing market conditions. Let's celebrate these resilient founders who make a real difference. #StartupEcosystem #Pakistan #Entrepreneurship #Innovation #ExecutionOverTalk #Resilience #GlobalPerspective

We are hosting the first batch of CEO meetup on June 12th. The agenda of this meet up is to help software companies scale their sales and delivery by collaboration and provide a vetted platform for sales and delivery partners. Companies lose deals because they have delivery gaps, delivery teams have no sales pipelines because it's not their Forte, just like that, we miss out on so many opportunities on a daily basis. It is time we bring the trust back in our Pakistani community and join hands to score the opportunities that we lose due to the solo race. Please fill this form to participate and I will be happy to accommodate you, help you with match making, and connect you with partners that can help you grow. https://lnkd.in/d9Ce_tSv Those selected in the first batch will be sent an invitation email with venue, agenda, and a list of participants companies.

My first SaaS product, Uptech LMS was a disaster. Now, I’m running a successful SaaS firm with 30+ employees. Here’s the no-BS advice I give to SaaS founders gearing up for a 2025 launch: 📌 Market Research: ☑ Don’t assume your product will sell itself. In places like Pakistan, SaaS subscriptions aren’t the norm. If you’re launching in a market like this, know that you’ll be doing a lot of groundwork to educate and convert. It’s not just about the product; it’s about reshaping how people think. 📌 Investor Alignment: ☑ Choose your investors wisely. I learned the hard way that some investors want to split the bill—covering only half of your marketing and operational costs. Make sure they’re in it with you, willing to support the product’s full growth journey. Clarity on this upfront can save you a lot of headaches down the road. 📌 Operational Efficiency: ☑ Keep your costs lean. Back in the day, I skipped on AI and ended up with sky-high operational costs. We had to hire full-time content writers, and it ate into our profits. In 2025, if you’re not leveraging AI and tech to streamline operations, you’re already behind. Use the tools at your disposal to stay nimble. Your product might be great, but it’s the execution that turns it into a money-making machine!

Hiring Alert! Back in 2017, when we started developing the Taleemabad learning app our goal was to reach every corner of Pakistan, making an impact on every underserved child. This map shows the penetration of Taleemabad across the country via mobile apps, broadcast on public television, and partnerships with public and private schools. To date, bottom left corner, Balochistan shows the worst trends. Our impact there is far from where we want it to be. But this image won’t remain true for long as we partner with public schools in Balochistan. This is not a declaration of victory but a start of a journey. For this, we need in-person heroes on the ground in Quetta (no remote work due to the hands-on nature of the program) for the following openings: 1. Program Managers 5+ years in project/program management within education or development. Lead impactful education initiatives that will change lives! 2. Regional Managers (2+ years building relationships in the development sector). Build partnerships that strengthen our mission to provide quality education. 3. Coaches (up to 2 years experience in education or a relevant field) Mentor and guide teachers. Play a key role in shaping young minds. 4. Product Manager (Proven 4-5 years of experience in building products) Build a mobile app for teachers that helps them deliver the best lectures. 5. Academicians (2-3 years in education) Curate content that tackles real issues like multi-grade teaching and improves classroom experiences. To apply: • Mention the role you're applying for in the subject line. • Write 100 words on a problem you feel passionate about and how you'd solve it. • Attach your updated resume. • Send your application to [email protected]

Over the past year, I've closely observed all the e-commerce stores in Pakistan that are scaling aggressively. Two key factors consistently stand out: - A Strong Grip on Supply Chain – These stores have tight control over their supply chains, ensuring they can deliver quality and reliability at scale. - In-House Content Creation – Their content is created in-house, allowing for a quick, authentic, and flexible approach to marketing. If you're aiming to scale your e-commerce business, focusing on these two areas is essential. This is the foundation for sustainable growth in e-commerce. #ecommerce #shopify #business

🚨 Spotlight on Mevris App: A Case Study in Poor Development and Customer Service 🚨 As someone who values innovation and technological advancement, it’s disappointing to witness the ongoing issues with the Mevris app, developed by BlueEast for Orient Group Of Companies Pakistan. Key Issues: Login Problems: Despite being in the market for over six years, the app’s login functionality remains non-functional for many users. Longevity Without Improvement: Available on the Play Store for more than six years, yet fundamental issues persist. User Feedback Ignored: The app has some of the most disappointed users, with countless negative reviews highlighting persistent issues and frustrations. Lack of Developer Response: Zero response from the developers, BlueEast, despite ongoing complaints and feedback from users. Takeaway: The Mevris app serves as a prime example of poor development practices and an extremely poor feedback/improvement cycle. It's crucial for companies to prioritize user experience and actively address feedback to ensure product success. Let's hope BlueEast and Orient Group Of Companies Pakistan take this as a wake-up call to address these issues and improve the app for their loyal customers. #AppDevelopment #CustomerService #FeedbackLoop #UserExperience #TechInnovation
