My Story
Hi, I am Ahmad Misto.
For over 29 years, I've been at the forefront of driving success for education and
business institutions across the MENA region growing multiple businesses into multimillion-dollar ventures.
On a MISSION to
help individuals and institutions thrive in the digital world.
I’m an Established Consultant, Speaker, Master Trainer, Digital Marketing Strategist, and
Sales Enablement Expert. As the
first Arabic 'Certified Coach'
in Influence & Persuasion globally serving as
“Cialdini Institute MENA manager”, I am committed to
effectively addressing your challenges in both daily life and work.
This commitment propelled my journey, leading me to participate in the most important
international conferences
and secure exclusive representations for the region.
While developing tailored solutions for clients, I
deepened my knowledge in business growth, successfully propelling businesses into
multimillion-dollar ventures, reaching milestones of 2,
3, and even 11 million dollars. This track record laid the foundation for my expertise in
business growth until 2019.
A new challenge
Then, It All Changed
In October 2019, the Lebanese crisis took place, followed by pandemic which hit me really hard. I lost all my contracts and most of my savings, since Covid disrupted industries and changed the way we buy and sell.

A new start
I Had To Do Something!
I had to figure out a new way to transform my value & extensive experience in the Edtech
industry into an online service that I could sell.
I spent my time researching,
studying and acquiring certifications in Sales Enablement, Digital Marketing and Business
Coaching.
I was searching for a new sustainable business model that allows to
productize one's knowledge and value, profitably and predictably.
And then it came
Made Simple Courses & Mistopreneur
I launched my first online group consulting course, School Enrollment Made Simple, and it was a bigger success than I anticipated. I later decided to publically share the
same proven processes, tools and techniques I've used to succeed through
Mistopreneur.
MISTOPRENEUR is my innovative & sustainable
Business Model built around YOU. It’s a life-changing
ONE-STOP-SHOP, an
action-oriented
path through which you’ll

marketing, sales, or tech-savvy in just 90 DAYS.
