Amir Syed — CEO

Sales saved my life. In 1985, my parents and I emigrated Iran for better opportunities in the United States. We left everything and everyone. My mom could not get a job at McDonald’s and my Father was earning $3.75 an hour as a shoe salesman. We lived in a 600 sq foot apartment and moved multiple times and by the age of 14, I was working. I started off as a car porter and janitor and then learned how to market and rent apartments and then eventually sell cars (all by the age of 18). School was not my thing. I barely graduated high school (1.7 GPA). I dropped out of college. I became a telemarketer for a small mortgage brokerage I made over 50,000+ cold calls and quickly became the top telemarketer in the country. English is my second language, but sales is my first language. I became BUY-lingual. At the age of 25, I purchased my first property: a 17-unit apartment building for $1M that I still own today and amassed 100 units before ever leaving my parents home. As a residential loan officer, I’ve also personally funded over $1B in home loan volume and $100M+ yearly from 2019 to 2022 alone. As a Co-Founder and CEO of GO! Coaching, we achieved 8 figure yearly revenue within four years of inception (all through impacting hundreds of careers). And as the Chief Growth Officer of Lower.com, a multi-channel fintech mortgage lender, we recently raised $100M in Series A funding (the largest in Ohio state history) to help catapult us in becoming a top 5 lender by 2030. Not bad for an immigrant kid from Iran. Selling is the most important skill you must seek. Understanding how to illustrate your value verbally, visually and textually, will open doors you won’t believe. And I’m walking proof. And if you’ve read this far, I have a promise for you: Every day, I will share one specific business gem to help you think better, do better, and to be better. I do, I learn, I share. Let's win together. 🤜🤛 - Amir Email: amir@growthonly.com Instagram: @amirsyed Twitter: @realAmirSyed Instagram: @amirsyed and @bankofamirica
