A public service message ...

#AshfaqAhmed #BabaJee #quotestoliveby #zaviya

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Networking becomes powerful when you stop asking, “Who can help me?”

Start asking, “Who can I help?”

The strongest business relationships are built before there is a transaction to discuss.

Give value first.

Trust compounds.

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

مرد کا اصل حسن اسکے انکار میں ہے !

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

A business leader should not measure success by how busy the team looks.

Measure outcomes.

Revenue generated.
Customers retained.
Problems solved.
Decisions improved.
People developed.

Activity creates movement.

Results create growth.

#Leadership #Business

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

The best #business network is not the one with the most #contacts. It is the one where people trust you enough to open doors, share #opportunities and make introductions. #Networking is not about collecting connections. It is about building enough credibility for connections.

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Capital should create capability, not dependency. 2/2

#Pakistan #SMEs #BusinessGrowth

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Pakistan is expanding access to finance for SMEs, exports, IT and other productive sectors.

But the real test is not how much capital reaches businesses.

It is what that capital produces.

More capacity.
More jobs.
More exports.
More productivity.
1/2

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Business networking should not be measured by how many people you meet. Measure it by what happens after the meeting.
A customer.
A partnership.
An investment.
A referral.
A new market.
The value of a network is in the opportunities it creates.

Export growth is a number. Export capability is a business advantage. 2/2

#Pakistan #Exports #BusinessGrowth

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Pakistan’s export numbers are improving.

But the real test is not whether exports rise for one month.

It is whether Pakistani businesses become more competitive, productive and capable of winning global customers repeatedly. 1/2

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

AI adoption is no longer just a technology conversation. For small businesses, the question is; Can AI increase sales, improve service, cut costs or reach new mrkts?
If yes, it is no longer optional.
Technology matters when it improves business economics.

If Pakistan wants private sector led growth, SMEs cannot remain an afterthought. 2/2

#Pakistan #SMEs #BusinessGrowth

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Pakistan’s SMEs contribute around 40% of GDP, yet they receive less than 1% of financing.

That gap tells us something important.

The problem is not a shortage of entrepreneurs.

It is a shortage of access, capital, capability and market opportunity. 1/2

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Pakistan has now launched an initiative with Meta to train SMEs in digital and AI tools.

The next step is turning AI adoption into measurable business growth.

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

AI will not create an advantage simply because a company starts using AI.

The advantage comes when AI helps a business:

Reduce costs.
Improve productivity.
Reach new customers.
Make better decisions.

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Export growth is good. Export capability is transformational. 2/2

#Pakistan #Exports #BusinessGrowth

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Pakistan’s export numbers are encouraging.

But the bigger opportunity is not simply to export more.

It is to build export capable businesses.

Products that compete globally.
Quality that earns trust.
Companies that can deliver consistently.

More competitive companies.
More value added products.
More global customers.
More Pakistani brands abroad.

Export growth should be measured not only in dollars, but in the strength of the businesses creating those dollars... 2/2

#Pakistan #Exports #BusinessGrowth

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Pakistan’s exports of goods and services reached $3.94 billion in July, up 13.1% year on year.

That is encouraging.

But the bigger question is:

Can we turn export growth into a long term business capability? ... 1/2

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Stability is the foundation.

Private sector growth is the destination.

#Pakistan #EconomicGrowth #PrivateSector
2/2

[Murtaza Subhani @MurtazaSubhani]

Pakistan has moved from economic stabilisation toward a more important question:

Where will the next wave of growth come from?

The answer cannot be government spending alone.

It has to come from businesses that invest, hire, innovate and export... 1/2
