Innovative ideas contributed to work:
During my employment with the Bahrain Yellow pages, I came up with the idea that any of our staff when
calling for any kind of service started the call saying “Hi, I got your number from the Bahrain Yellow
Pages.” This small act made a big difference to business as people who invested in us started believing
that their investment in Print medium was worth it and many others knew Yellow pages was a one stop for
A-Z requirements. We were a team of 50 people in Bahrain and another 50 from other parts of GCC.
I have also introduced a cleanliness concept which is self-financing and in fact a huge revenue generating
activity which is being presented by an Event company in India for approvals. This will be one of the
biggest cleanliness concepts with a scope to solve unemployment/ hygiene /security issues.
When I was with GENCOR – I came up with different concepts of marketing our product which in turn
reduced wastage by 600% and increase our sales.
When I was with Etisalat Yellow pages I was the first person to sell the front cover of the Dubai Yellow
Pages to a client in Bahrain by a simple way of approach which was different and unique
