About Ahmed
Business consultant, podcast host and dealer coach.

Twenty-five years of selling, and still learning
I am the CEO of UPD and The Video School, and I host Fail Successfully. My work is simple: help dealers sell more and grow, using methods I have tested myself.
I believe failure is data. When you review what went wrong without ego, the next step becomes clear.
