Diagnosis

If your marketing isn’t producing qualified leads and predictable revenue, something in the system is broken.

B2B funnels usually leak at four points. Switch the view to see what a working growth system changes.

  1. Reach

    Campaigns reach everyone and convince no one.

    ICP-led positioning and ABM put you in front of the accounts that buy.

  2. Capture

    Traffic lands on pages that don’t convert.

    Conversion-tuned journeys turn visits into qualified leads.

  3. Nurture

    Leads go cold while they wait for follow-up.

    AI-personalized automation follows up in minutes and nurtures for months.

  4. Close

    Sales and marketing argue about lead quality.

    Shared CRM scoring and pipeline reporting align both teams on revenue.

If you want more leads, I’ll fix your funnel. If you want to scale revenue, I’ll build the system.

One system from first click to closed deal.

About

Fifteen years of marketing leadership, from global pharma to AI startups.

My background spans global pharma with Pfizer, AbbVie and Johnson & Johnson, including EMEA emerging-markets marketing for biologics, the first unified Simponi campaign and new product launches at J&J, and digital transformation for international markets at LIPTIS Pharmaceuticals. In diagnostics, I led business development across the Middle East and Africa for IDH Group and marketing across the GCC for Alborg Diagnostics, two of the region’s largest laboratory networks. In digital health, I led the launch and FDA readiness for Polyfins Technologies in San Francisco and the dermatology app Eczemaless AI. I have also led marketing for a 350-branch retail chain and B2B technology companies, and helped launch two US startups in AI and SaaS.

Today I bring that discipline together with AI, automation and analytics. The result is a growth system your team can run, measure and scale, with me in the room as both strategist and hands-on operator.

FAQ

Questions before we talk.

What happens after I take the assessment?

I review your answers to see where your marketing and sales are leaking and whether a structured 90-day growth program fits your business. If it does, we book a strategy call to go through them together.

What does “Expert-Vetted” mean?

It is Upwork’s badge for the top 1% of its global talent pool. Upwork’s Talent Managers select Expert-Vetted professionals in a live review of their expertise, experience and communication skills.

Do you only work with healthcare companies?

No. Healthcare and pharma are a deep specialty, and I also work with AI and SaaS companies, B2B technology firms, and retail and FMCG brands.

Where are your clients based?

Worldwide. I work remotely with B2B companies in the United States, Europe and the Middle East, and have supported businesses in 27+ countries. Calls are scheduled to suit your time zone.

How do engagements work?

We agree the format after the strategy call. Options include a 90-day growth program, ongoing fractional CMO leadership, focused project sprints or advisory.

Do you advise, or also implement?

Both. I set the strategy and lead execution with my team and partners across campaigns, automation, CRM and analytics.

How soon will we see results?

Funnel and conversion fixes can show results within weeks. Demand generation and ABM programs build pipeline over one to two quarters, and shared reporting shows progress from the start.

Which languages do you work in?

English and Arabic. Strategy, content and reporting can be delivered in either language, or both.
