Most of the time we talk about the million dollar start ups and how they have started from scratch; some even started from their basement. Frankly speaking, there are ton of million dollar start ups now but sadly the million dollar doesn’t sound cool any more. You know what sounds cool? Billion dollars with a B Not all companies have made it to a billion dollar valuation beside a few such as Facebook, Instagram, Evernote etc. Today, I am sharing an interesting infographic which was recently sent to me by a staff from staff.com.

Happy New Years – Stop Resolutions, Start Taking Action!
Happy New Years to my fellow comrades Hope all is well with everyone. I am heading to the Big Apple in a couple of hours and will be there till the 3rd so if anyone of you visit that area, feel free to hit me up. Maybe we can get a beer together. New Year’s resolution really don’t make much sense to me because every time we set long-ass unrealistic goals and it never works out.

Re-launching Salman Ahsan as a Brand
I have finally decided to re-launch “Salman Ahsan” as a brand. Previously it was named Salman Ahsan dot Com. If you are on my facebook page then you should have noticed that the name has changed.
