Hey, I'm Omar Saeed. I'm the co-founder and CEO of Thais.com and I'm one of the passionate

few.

Hey guys, welcome to this episode of the Passionate View podcast today. It's your host, Omar here.

And today we get to hear the inspiring story of the CEO of ties.com, Omar Saeed. And in this

interview, Omar shares with us exactly how he took the company to eight figures in revenue doing tens of millions of dollars in sales annually and how they become the number one player in their space in e-commerce. And also, Omar shares with us exactly what his rock bottoms were like, including the fact that him and his wife lived in a one-bedroom apartment and how he swore

himself at that time that he would do whatever it took to make his dreams a reality.

So I want to encourage you guys to sit back, relax, and hear an awesome story from an executive

that goes deep with us about how to make effective decisions, how to run your life, how to run

your business, and also some of the specific

strategies he's used to build the company as big as he has. So with no further ado, I want to

encourage you guys to sit back, relax, and enjoy this powerful interview with the CEO of tithes.com,

Omar Saeed. Enjoy. Thanks for being on the show today, Omar. Thank you for having me.

Absolutely. You're the first Omar to have on the show, so it's awesome that we have the same name. When I saw your name, I was like, definitely must meet. All omars must unite. Yes, absolutely. So let's get right into a lot of people know what you've done with tithes.com. Some people might not. You guys came into the space and you got involved with ties in 2010 and took it from, you know, a couple million dollars in revenue

to multiple eight figures in revenue growing 30% year over year. Pretty awesome in the space.

You guys are killing it. Talk to me a little bit about how you got into entrepreneurship and then

we'll get more into the business space.

But talk to me about how you grew up and where did the seed get planted in entrepreneurship for you?

Sure. So coming from a background like mine, sort of immigrant parent.

What nationality?

Afghan. And growing up with sort of the background that I grew up and there was no entrepreneurship.

You could become a doctor, lawyer, or an engineer.

And that's those are the only options you have.
