Khalid Farhan: The Digital Pioneer Transforming Business and Marketing in Bangladesh

In the contemporary landscape of digital marketing, sophistication has taken a whole new route. One person comes in handy and manages to hold his ground, “Khalid Farhan”. Khalid is an accomplished digital marketer, an entrepreneur, a content creator and an author of works that appeal to him among many others that he does not. He is not a stranger to marketing even in a global context, as Khalid has managed to base himself even outside of Bangladesh. From his modest beginnings, Khalid now operates agencies in both Ireland and Florida, which speaks volumes of his indomitable will and entrepreneurship.

A Young Man With A Spirit Of Entrepreneurship

Khalid Farhan’s entrepreneurial journey started at a young age, long before he became a marketing expert. During his school days at “Udayan School” and “Dhaka College”, Khalid rented out his personal books to friends for pocket money. This early experience foreshadowed his later ventures into business and digital marketing.

In 2010-2011, while still in college, Khalid began freelancing on popular platforms like QDesk ( now up-work) and Freelancer, where he wrote articles and books.

The year 2012 will be remembered as a breakthrough for him in internet commerce when he began marketing his own line of ornamental pet accessories featuring his portraits for Filipino fans through Facebook, a risky step considering the e-commerce industry had not yet advanced in Bangladesh.

The Birth of an Entrepreneur:

Khalid was able to achieve a breaking point in his business when he managed to sell a pet accessories page to BBC employees, Fahad and Reza which became one of the first f commerce businesses in Bangladesh. This early success encouraged him to seek for other businesses and by 2015-2016, Khalid had begun in constructing and selling websites. A site he built which was principally on drones paid him between 4,500-5,000 dollars.

At the same time, he opened up “Passive Journal agency” in Bangladesh which provided content and SEO services, and started a youtube channel. The phone videos that he shot and posted on his youtube page would become his calling as a digital content creator.

Passion Projects: Pets and Podcasts

Khalid’s love for animals led him to start another unique venture in 2022 a pet daycare and boarding facility on Mirpur’s Zoo Road, Dhaka. The facility, which includes glass-walled cabins for cats and special rooms for dogs, quickly gained popularity among pet owners. Khalid’s passion for this business is clear, as he notes that it’s not just a commercial endeavor but also an extension of his deep love for animals.

In addition to his business ventures, Khalid ventured into podcasting in 2021 with Trinomial Podcast, alongside popular influencers “Sadman Sadik” and “Enayet Chowdhury”. The podcast gained traction quickly on YouTube and Facebook, discussing trending topics each week. Though the show faced challenges, including a temporary pause in 2022 following controversy, Khalid and his team returned in 2023 to continue the conversation.

Khalid Farhan: An Author and a Mentor Through Generations

In addition to being an entrepreneur and content creator, Khalid Farhan is an author too. His debut book “এখান থেকে শুরু” published in 2020 was about career building, business inspiration and self-development. His second book, ‘ডিজিটাল মার্কেটিং এর গল্প’, is about digital marketing and self-help to help others succeed in the digital world.

However, books are not all Khalid has in mind for the youth. He wishes the youth to aspire to be ready to make their businesses. In the year 2022, he introduced a ‘bootcamp for business’ where the participants were given NFTs as a part of the package, a move that shows his astute thinking since he is already interested in cryptocurrencies and Web 3.0.

The Future: Broadening Towards New Frontiers And Enriching The Weaponry Of The Youth

His aspirations could not be limited to enjoying individual victory alone instead, he wants to motivate a greater number of young people to join the bandwagon of business and digital marketing.
