Web Funters : See the innovation as an opportunity – Not a threat!

December 18, 2008 1:20 am 10 comments

Innovation is the definite device of entrepreneurship. The action that empowers resources with a creative ability to create wealth. The vision of the Web Funters. – http://www.webfunters.com/ is established on the same rationale by two young entrepreneurs Mohib uddin and Aly Abdullah; both 19. Mohib is a practiced Copywriter, Blogger, Internet Marketer, Communications Specialist and a self-made entrepreneur. So far, his goal is to reach high revenues by the end of his first year on their enterprise venture Web Funters, which is by winter of 2009. Mohib was a Media Sciences student at a reputable university but his erratic behaviour and destructive lifestyle soon got him turfed out. He laid waste to the varsity’s conference rooms, the classrooms, and even common corridors, tossing things out of the place. Aly’s expertise covers Search Engine Marketing, Blog Integration and Website Development. He has been a thriving freelancer as well as an industrious entrepreneur. Aly’s persona is designed to be consistent, efficient and studious. He’s currently doing BS in Public Administration from the University of Karachi, Department of Public Administration.

The company is aiming to inject fun into producing juicy web portals and ventures. They are seeking finance to mass produce their ideas and have been visiting entrepreneurship technology conferences to gain some local exposure.

Nearly half a dozen “Funter” web products are under-construction or planned. A few of their accomplished products include:

  • Hmm is this article an advertisement or a carefully written press release or just an endorsement by G&W?

  • UJMi – Ali has a right to like the company and do a positive review doesnt he?

    Although – I dont understand the title though… “See innovation as an opportunity, not a threat”.

    I dont know who looks at it as a threat

  • Osama – Sure, he does have every right. I just shared what I thought this piece looked like.

  • I would love if this post had direct links to their websites.

  • The senior workforce looks innovation as a threat. Be wise Mr.Osama :D

  • Haven’t you been ever smacked by your oldie immediate boss lolz :P

  • Ali! Are they, Funters, your friends?

  • Ali Raza!!! Aren’t you? Thaakur say ghaddari bohut mehangi paregi lolz…

    Just kidding buddy… Be well!

  • Jahangir Khan

    First of all this looks like a lethargic shot at a very lame marketing stunt, secondly i reviewed the websites listed as their Innovative projects, i did’nt see anything innovative about them these are outdated or already tried and tested stuff on the internet, you can find i think around a million websites about these same businesses, and the term “injecting fun” is extremely vague and general, what sort of FUN will they be injecting leaves a lot of queries, and yes last but not least, how much did they pay you to post such a diamond and gem stitched post!

    Food Connection Pakistan

Being a typical Lahoriite, a die-hard food lover, it matters to me that I try the best food of the place I visit. So this is where FCPakistan came to my rescue. I simply logged in, typed in my desired specifications and got atleast 5 suggestions.

    The listing included their opening times, specific facilities like ease for physically disabled customers, credit card acceptance, smoking areas, take away facility, whether valet parking was available or not, and even directions to get there! What more could you want.

    OLX Pakistan Investing heavily in advertisement

    OLX is a global online retailer and auction site. They have an impressive footprint in a little less than 100 countries, each with their own specific domain (like .pk for Pakistan and .in for India).

    In Pakistan they have been operating under olx.com.pk for some time with people using it to sell things online.

    Recently they have started advertising heavily on Television, a medium seldom used by online businesses previously. The ads (two of which have appeared ) are witty and fun to watch.

    The most important factor of these adds is that they are being advertised on media which previously none of our online businesses have used.

    Second Pakistan Blog Awards by CIO Faces severe criticism

    CIO Pakistan started blog awards last year. Its is a good sign when some one takes initiative and starts some thing new. However its also difficult to introduce this into an already budding field of new media in Pakistan. Last years (or two years back now since its 2012)  Awards were initiated so as it is expected it faced initial growing up pains. It always takes time for such thing to wins the trust of the community. And bloggers are one of the most hard people to win over, most of these are rebels in their own rights people who have started blogging to show the world their opinion…

    Stay for the work not the perks

    This is a revelation that came to me when I recently quit my comfy corporate job for the second time. If you are below 40 and some one asks you about how is your job going and your answer is not in tune of “I like my job because I love the work”. 

    You need to pause and asses your career, last time I answered this question my answer was “I like the job, because the benefits are good”, and that made me think (offcourse there were other factors as well). But if you are doing a job in which to satisfy your own self you have to look at…
