I've gotten your attention. Good. I'm Faisal, a 20 year old entrepreneur from Bengaluru building CRM platforms that compete with Zoho and Salesforce. Started in sales, never stopped building around it.
I'm a 20 year old entrepreneur based in Bengaluru, India.
Before college started I was already deep in sales, bringing in clients for three digital marketing agencies and a web development agency. No theory, no classroom. Just real conversations with real business owners, learning how they think, what they need, and how deals actually get done.
That's where the obsession started. I've met hundreds of business owners, sat across the table from people building serious companies, and realised early that the best way to learn business is to be in it.
Now I co-lead two companies. ZIVO is an AI driven CRM competing in the space Zoho and Salesforce operate in. Clyxit is a vertical CRM built specifically for the construction and real estate industry. Both are being built by engineering teams I work closely with every day.
I'm still a student. But everything that matters is being built outside the classroom.
I love connecting with founders, operators and people who are genuinely building things. If that's you, let's talk.
