About

Results-Driven Marketing & Sales ProfessionalI've helped grow textile sales revenue by 30% year-over-year at one of Pakistan's most recognised brands — Gul Ahmed Textile Mills. Over the past 4 years as a Senior Marketing Executive, I've worked at the intersection of product, sales, and market strategy — sourcing new international buyers, negotiating competitive deals, managing B2B accounts, and representing the brand at global trade exhibitions. What I bring to the table: → Deep product knowledge across dyed yarn, yarn-dyed fabric, and surplus clearance→ End-to-end sales cycle management: from lab dips and sampling to final dispatch→ Consistent quota overachievement (avg. 110% of target) → Export market development across digital platforms (Shopify, eBay, TradeKey) → Cross-functional collaboration across logistics, procurement, and production My background is a little unusual for a marketing role — I hold an MBA in Marketing and a BS in Accounting & Finance, which means I understand both the numbers and the narrative. I don't just sell fabric; I build trust with buyers that turns into repeat business. Whether you're a brand looking for a commercially sharp marketing professional, or a buyer exploring textile sourcing options — let's talk. 📩 syedshahmir279@gmail.com // +92333-3938125Key Strengths:- Marketing Strategy: Proven ability to develop and execute effective marketing campaigns, leveraging market research and customer insights to drive business growth.- Sales Excellence: Skilled in building strong relationships with customers, negotiating deals, and identifying new business opportunities.- Product Development: Experienced in product development, costing, and pricing strategies for fabrics and yarns.- Digital Marketing: Proficient in email marketing, cold calling, and social media engagement.- Customer Service: Adept at handling customer queries, providing product representation, and ensuring customer satisfaction.
