My Story

My fantastic journey in the digital world from Netscape to metaverse has been full of curiosity, investigation and exploration. Little did I know while self-learning to develop personal websites as a hobby in my teenage that it would later be a part of my career. My passion for web design, user experience, SEO, and eCommerce drove me to digital media marketing.

My digital content, web development, and SEO expertise has given me the skills to empathize and collaborate with enterprise-wide partners, external clients, and agencies. In addition, with over a decade of lateral experience across industries, I have accumulated a wealth of skills & knowledge in leadership, strategy, professional communication, and interpersonal relationship building.

I now help brands develop and implement a digital strategy to take their businesses to the next level. At Aptum, I thrive in collaborating with various stakeholders to continuously create unique and effective online content and provide an effortless customer experience at every touchpoint. I enjoy making sense of the big picture and addressing the shared value between brand, business and customer through meaningful digital experiences crafted to delight and empower.

My key skills and knowledge include digital content planning, development & optimization, CMS, UX design, SEO, and data & heatmap analysis.

Key Achievements:

  • Successfully led an SEO-focused website re-designing project that helped simplify the user journey and improve user experience.
  • Created pieces of digital content and implemented SEO techniques as a part of college coursework that ranked on the first page of Google SERP for relevant keywords.
  • Optimized product listing that improved organic search ranking from pages 3-4 for at least five high-volume keywords, which resulted in a 40% increase in organic traffic in 3 months.
  • Successfully launched private label products on Amazon Canada by applying keyword research, SEO and PPC knowledge.

Recommendations

It was a privilege to work with such a skilled team member as Ikram! He reported directly to me and was responsible for the CMS, SEO, digital user experience and analytics for multiple websites (including e-commerce) in the company and did a stellar job at all! He was also well versed on Social Media, Content Creation and Graphic Design and had the ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment. His willingness to learn and grow is quite admirable as he is able to accept feedback graciously and quickly action on any deliverables. Ikram is a truly valuable digital marketing professional and any team or company he works for will be very luck to have him!

I had the pleasure to work with Ikram during the time we studied the MBA program at the University of Greenwich in September 2009. He is friendly, energetic, and hardworking. Since I have known him, I have been particularly impressed by Ikram's ability to have a solid and consistent approach to problem-solving with his well-structured thinking ability. During the MBA, he successfully engaged in programs such as contemporary issues in marketing, business strategy, and international business out of many in our course. He has a self-motivated personality, excellent commercial awareness, and excellent communication skills at all levels, which were reflected in our group projects and class presentations. He was also leading a vital part of a Project Management Simulation – ‘Celemi’ during our project management workshop. His expertise and knowledge of marketing and digital media platforms were apparent when he was on a Marketing project to implement a Digital Marketing Plan for our client Suffolk Tourist Guide Company. Through that project, he has proven his enhanced technical understanding of how a company can grow and maximise revenue through digital marketing. He is analytical, highly focused, and can be a valued member of any team and organisation.
