My Business Story

Knowledge That Comes From Doing the Work

I didn't learn business in a lecture hall. I learned it on site — visiting projects, dealing with customers, preparing quotations, managing labour and suppliers, solving execution problems, and chasing payments until the job was truly done.

Over nearly two decades I moved from interior finishing and construction into product development and manufacturing, then into exhibitions, digital marketing and international markets. I founded Murad Interiors and kept building — testing products, handling difficult projects, making mistakes, and improving the systems behind the business.

That's the experience I now share with other entrepreneurs and SMEs: practical, tested, and grounded in real work rather than theory.

Early Career

Construction & Project Experience

Hands-on work in interiors and construction — learning the trade on real sites, from measurement and quotation to delivery.

Building Murad Interiors

Founding the Business

Turned field experience into a company — interior finishing and false ceilings for commercial, hospitality and residential clients across Lahore and Islamabad.

Product Expansion

Products & Manufacturing

Moved beyond contracting into products — GRC/GRP moldings, MURANO 3D wall solutions, stone planters and artificial trees & green décor.

Digital Growth

Marketing, Systems & AI

Brought social media, Meta advertising, WhatsApp communication, lead-generation and practical AI tools into how the business runs.

International Markets

Export & Overseas Exposure

Began market development abroad — product preparation, sourcing and overseas market testing, including the Planter Home venture.

Today

Sharing What Business Taught Me

Continuing to build — while sharing practical lessons with entrepreneurs and SMEs through mentoring, talks and writing.

01 — BUSINESSES & VENTURES

The Businesses Behind the Experience

I teach from experience, not theory. These are the real ventures that experience is built on — led by Murad Interiors, the company I founded and still run.

Murad Interiors

Nearly two decades of hands-on work in interiors, architectural products and décor — from finishing commercial and hospitality spaces to developing and manufacturing our own product lines. It's where I learned execution, customers, teams and product development first-hand.

International Market Development — Planter Home

Alongside Murad Interiors, I've built real international business experience through Planter Home — preparing products for overseas markets, sourcing, logistics and market testing, with exposure to the Australian market and partners abroad. It reflects genuine cross-border business learning, presented conservatively.
