Are you a Star? Some one who is an undiscovered social media management phenomenon ? Do you want your own platform for customer engagement and grow Pakistans most valuable brand whilst building a team? Do you take inspiration from Wendy’s and BurgerKings online banter?
Can you do better? Do you have command over Urdu as much as you do over English? If this sounds like you, we are hiring. Send me a message and we will get the conversation going. When you message, share the accounts you run or manage and the growth and engagement you have driven.
Looking for some one who has built and managed audiences across FB/Insta/Twitter and is now looking to expand their horizons beyond client pitches to emotionally needy Brand Managers, Uncles, Saiths and/or Ghee and Banaspati brands.
There is more to life than repackaging the same stuff every day with the same people for the same brands, with the same results. #TimeToMoveOn

Every one Talks About Elite Capture in 🇵🇰 but most don't do any research to find out what it really means or where it started or how it impacts us daily

We are quick to blame

Lazy to action

Indifferent to learn from history

Heres a 🧵 an attempt with some facts & data points
The concentration of business ownership has been an interesting economic case study in 🇵🇰 ever since 1968 when Dr. Mahbub( then the Chief Economist of the Planning Commission) Named Pakistan’s 22 Families that dis proportionately controlled its economy.

web.archive.org/web/2013072200…
A report by KASB in 2018 stated the following with some in-accuracies. The top 11 family-controlled groups have 53 listed companies which have a collective market cap of $27bn, which means they account for around 35% of the market capitalization of Pakistan Stock Exchange. Image

The Economic crisis & its impact explained in simple terms.A guide for Millennials & Gen Z.🧵

Boomers will tell you, they have been hearing since time immemorial that "the country is at the brink of disaster"
What they don't tell you:

1)Their lack of contribution to fix things

2)Their inability to call a spade a spade

3)Their lack of involvement in street level community building let alone national

4)Their lack of ownership from any thing that "didn't impact them" economically
They are right in one thing for sure. We didn't get here over night, their entire life was spent "hearing things are bad", but it was also spent ignoring that same message.

How many took any "action"?

Every one buried their head in sand and said "sanu ki" this too shall pass.

Pakistan Inc. “Retiree Entrepreneurs, Saith-a-preneurs, Startups & Failure Dollars.”

Full Blog Post here:
blog.chinookstrategy.com/pakistan-inc/

TL;DR⬇️🧵
Despite years of poor governance, economic difficulties, security challenges, and internal issues, the average Pakistani remains optimistic that better days are coming. This response highlights the deep bond between man and his creator and the belief that things will improve.
Another possible explanation is the lack of education and access to understanding economic fallout. Because we have always "heard things are bad". But clearly things have continued to go on..

I was today years old when I found out what a 'designer' "lawn" suit costs🧵

15-20k Price points for an outfit + cost of tailoring

Made me question my professional choices & of many other entrepreneurs

Perhaps the best thing to do is to build tech around lawn ..
For niche designers this is how the process works:

1)Call ahead
2)If you are an old customer(no deposit)
3)If you aren't well heeled then you may need to do a bank transfer to hold(with more niche designers albeit)
4)On the designated day show up
5)Avg cart size is 5 outfits
The name “lawn cloth” comes from the French city of Laon, which was where this textile was first woven. (says the internet)

At first, lawn cloth was primarily made with linen, which was more abundant in Europe at the time. material.

What? Really?Let me take you & the powers be on a Journey of value destruction
Be it popular media, social media, political parties, influencers, opinion makers or the government it self. One thing is clear. Youtube outages happened (happening in🇵🇰).

What matters, It is happening since Aug 21st

1. YouTube Runs on Googles Cloud Platform(GCP)

2. Some government body with the ability to do deep pack inspection goes in and decides to throttle YT

3. YouTube likely keeps shifting ip pools/being served from various locations of the GCP infrastructure as a redundancy measure

The middle class is dead

Economic UnCertainty is not Joke. This is no longer a question of doing better, trying harder, working your way up.

If you were on the fringe of just making it, you likely crossed over to a dark place

Why?
💠Power/Gas/Fuel
💠Education
💠Healthcare
Inflation may be global, but the way we handled

💠Politics
💠Economic development
💠Geo Political Stability
💠Public Infrastructure
💠Health Care
💠Taxation
💠Defense Spending
💠Foreign policy

We have no one but our selves to blame.
Lets get some facts right:

Take a look at the attached Telecom Indicators, what they aren't a measure of:(contrary to what the govt/startups want you to believe)

💠Success
💠Productive Youth
💠Strong Consumer Market
💠Globally Competitive Workforce
