Once upon a time he was an affiliate, co-founding several affiliate websites and an affiliate agency along the way.And every now and then hedabbles in consultancy (when ideas and people, too awesome not to want to have a closer look at, have crossed his path).
Samir is a performance marketing aficionado with extensive experience, within affiliate, mobile, email, PPC, display, SEO, and content marketing.
Samir swears by…
“User acquisition & retention via the product, the viral nature of an idea, the quality of the service, and ‘good-will' word of mouth marketing for the ‘win'. Performance marketing with a ‘pirate-booty'/'.com boom' sized war chest for the ‘domination'.”
A lover of art, music, literature, travel, all things geeky, and the odd kick to the head.
