About

Hey YOU, yes YOU! πŸ‘‹ Thanks for dropping by on my profile 😊 I'm on a mission to help B2B Companies make prospecting easy! In B2B, buying has changed, but selling hasn't. Most organisations are not evolving with the times and are still hung up on 'old school' methods that won't simply make the cut in this day and age. -- πŸ‘¨πŸ»β€πŸ’»About Me πŸ‘¨πŸ»β€πŸ’» I help build companies. I was there when Uber first launched in the UK, when Hootsuite became the world's leading social media management platform and when Leadfeeder became the leader in website identification software. Self-proclaimed "Fulltime Backpacker", I am also an active ambassador for remote working, balancing work and travel by staying no longer than 3 weeks in one place! πŸ“– Read my story on: http://dipak.me/about -- β˜•οΈ Always open for a chat over coffee: https://dipak.me/coffee πŸ‘‰ If are interested in discussing any public speaking opportunities, please send me a direct message πŸ’¬ πŸ”” Enjoying my content?
