I’ve made every mistake — so you don’t have to.
I’m Shahzad Ahmad Mirza. I bought my first computer in 2000. I tried — and failed — to launch agencies in 2005, 2007, and 2010. By the time I relaunched Designs Valley in 2012, I knew exactly what not to do. Within a few years it had grown to 46 specialists serving clients globally.
That hard-won experience is what I bring to every consultation. Today I run WebZeto (white-label web dev), GBOBER.com (Pakistan’s #1 guest-blog outreach platform), and co-founded Next Age Solutions — where 100,000+ students have launched freelance careers and online businesses.

🎯
Skin in the Game
I’m still building. Every recommendation comes from someone running 5 ventures right now — not a coach who’s never shipped.
🤝
Built for Your Market
Pakistan, the Gulf, the diaspora — I understand the real constraints (payments, hiring, audience) that generic Western advice ignores.

Don’t take my word for it.
Founders, freelancers, and students who turned a single conversation into a real outcome.
"One hour with Shahzad was worth six months of YouTube tutorials. I went from confused graduate to running my own digital marketing agency in under two years — and the playbook was his."
"GBOB through Shahzad is the most practical online-income training in Pakistan. Real examples, real numbers, and the kind of step-by-step that you can execute the same week. I’m now earning in dollars."
"His podcast is unlike anything else in Pakistan — and the consultation is even better. He cut through 6 months of indecision in 60 minutes. I launched the next quarter."
Frequently Asked
Questions before you book?
The honest answers people email me — collected here so you can decide quickly.
Who are these consultations for?
Founders launching their first online business, agency owners trying to scale past a plateau, ecommerce operators losing money on ads, freelancers ready to graduate to an agency, and corporate teams who need a sharp outside perspective. If you’re “thinking about it” and want clarity in 30–60 minutes, you’re in the right place.
Should I book the 30-minute or 60-minute call?
Pick 30 minutes ($150) for one specific question — a stuck campaign, a niche decision, a hiring problem. Pick 60 minutes ($500) if you want a full audit of your business and an end-to-end roadmap. The hour also includes 30 days of follow-up over WhatsApp/email, which is where most of the actual unblocking happens.
How does the call actually work?
After payment, you’ll get a short prep form (3 questions). I review it before we meet. We jump on Zoom or Google Meet at your slot — Lahore time or yours, whichever works. You leave with a recording, written notes, and a clear “do this next” list.
Do you take on long-term consulting or retainers?
Selectively, yes. I work with a small number of clients per quarter on monthly advisory or fractional CMO/CTO arrangements. Mention it in the booking form and we’ll discuss after the first call.
Where do I enrol in your courses?
All training runs through nextagesolutions.com — Pakistan’s leading IT & freelancing training centre, which I co-founded. Premium tracks like GBOB, Full-Stack + AI, and SEO are paid; starter tracks (WordPress, FB Ads, English for Freelancers) are free.
How do I become a guest on the podcast?
Editorial guests are selected on merit — pitch your story using the contact form below and tell me what’s interesting that no-one else has heard. Sponsored guest packages start at $1,500 and include guaranteed distribution and production. Both share the same studio-grade quality.
What’s your refund policy?
Consultations are non-refundable once booked, but freely reschedulable up to 24 hours before the slot. If at the 5-minute mark of the call you don’t feel it’s the right fit, say so — I’ll refund and we both move on. That has happened twice in 25 years; I’m comfortable with the odds.
