Today we’d like to introduce you to Faiz Imran.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Faiz. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
Growing up, I always had the entrepreneurial mindset which let to my first startup, “Everscent” I believe there is a story on voyage about that as well. After the selloff of Everscent, I found myself reminiscing around what the hardest part of the whole project was and where we struggled the most and even could have done better in. I came to the conclusion that the marketing, the content, and the story of the business played largest roles on the company’s success and the more focus that had been put into those aspects of the business the more results we got. It was almost as if it was directly correlated. I then put together a team of talented individuals some from our past projects and approached business that we’re in my close circle of partners and friends. We asked about their businesses digital and marketing struggles and offered solutions. We learned as we went on, initially offering to work for free. Fast forward 2 1/2 years and we are now one of the leading full-service digital marketing agencies in Atlanta. We not only have a large onshore team of 120 professionals; we also have a client that consists of some of the world’s largest corporations.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
NOT even in the slightest of ways. The number of times we’ve had people hang up on us or slam their door on us and even threaten us because we approached them trying to offer our solutions is countless. At first, it was very demotivating, but we pushed through and it paid off BIG TIME.

Do you look back particularly fondly on any memories from childhood?
It’d probably have to be the time I closed my first 5 figure deal. The craziest thing about all of it was I had made a list of 500 local businesses to call and out of the 500 many hung up and a few asked for more information but I ended up losing a single deal that was worth over five figures.
