About this episode

"We're at an age now where knowledge is free and it's everywhere"

A lot of us have dabbled with dating apps, but what really makes a successful match? In the episode Ali sits down for a conversation with Shahzad Younas, founder and CEO of Muzmatch the revolutionary dating app that's transforming the way Muslims find love and marriage with over 4 million members and 100,000+ successful marriages thanks to the app.

Shahzad shares how he quit his job and built the leading Muzmatch app from scratch, how to make marketing work, the problem with dating app etiquette for Muslim's and much much more. You'll leave the episode with an understanding of how to identify and execute business ideas, the importance of forcing yourself to be uncomfortable and even a few tips on finding love and the art of dating.

Some topics of conversation:

  • How to build apps
  • Problem solving in business
  • How to make marketing work
  • Behaviour on dating apps
  • Muzmatch and religion
  • And lots more!
