About

Do you know how different sales was post-COVID when I started as an appointment setter?Cold calling was 40–60% of outreach. Email played support. LinkedIn Sales Navigator? Barely on the radar.Today? Buyers are more selective. Channels have multiplied. And I've learned one thing: one size does not fit all.Low-ticket, quick wins? Cold calling still works.High-value, long-term deals? You can't close those over a call. You need personalized LinkedIn engagement, multi-touch nurturing, and consultative conversations.I also learned that approach changes by region:· USA → Direct and fast· UK → Relationship-first· UAE → Trust and referrals matter mostTo be productive today, you can't just dial. You have to be a strategic orchestrator.What I Bring:· 3 Years Post-COVID Experience – USA, UK, UAE markets· Multi-Channel Outreach – Cold calling, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, email, WhatsApp – calibrated by deal size and culture· Full-Cycle Sales Support – From lead to closed deal, whether quick win or enterprise· Digital Marketing + Tech Knowledge – SEO, email, Google Ads, plus Web Dev, UI/UX, DevOps, AI solutions· Regional & Cultural Intelligence – I adapt to how each market buysLet's connect if you want someone who adapts strategy to deal size, region, and culture—not just dials for dollars.
