Who I am

I trained to manage building sites. Now I build the systems businesses run on, and teach people to build them too.

The habits came with me from construction: read the rules first, plan the work, then build it so it holds. Telacont builds for businesses. Akhbr teaches. The Upwork Formula and Closer AI help freelancers win work.

How Iwork.

  1. 01

    Fixed scope, fixed dates.

    At Telacont one job is live in 5 working days, and three jobs in 15, for a fixed fee.

  2. 02

    Real systems, not templates.

    A checkout that issues a licence in under 5 seconds. A 47-step workflow for installment plans. 170 test files behind Closer AI. I build what the business actually runs on.

  3. 03

    The client owns everything.

    Data goes into storage the client owns: one client's 4,640 contacts, orders and leads are mirrored there. Software sends the messages, people oversee them, and the client approves what goes out.

  4. 04

    Build it, then teach it.

    Telacont's program is called Build & Learn. Akhbr is where people learn by doing. I build the system, then I teach the people who use it.
