There is a memorable quote in movie The Rookie that says: “It is fine to do what you want to do, but sooner or later, you have to do what you were meant to do.” This is story of Ashraf Chaudhry.

At the pinnacle of his successful career as a Sales & Marketing professional, he left comfy confines of secure job to pursue his passion for corporate trainings, coaching and writing. Within three months of leaving his job as GM Sales & Distribution with Worldcall Group, one of the biggest business groups in Pakistan, he wrote and published his book The Craft of Selling “YOURSELF”. The book is now international best-seller (also available at Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble book stores all over the world).

After an MBA degree from a top-notch business school in Pakistan, Institute of Business Administration (IBA), Karachi, he worked for blue-chip companies like Chevron, Tapal Tea, Pearl Continental/Marriott Hotels and Worldcall Group in Sales and Marketing departments for one and half decade.

His vision is simple: to raise incorrigibly optimist Sales & Marketing militia for business organizations with ‘never-say-quit’ determination. Period. He transfers his skills with interactive discussions, case studies, exercises, video analyses and by sharing his hands-on experiences.

Ashraf is also co-author with world’s top most sales trainer and best-selling author Bob Urichuck for up-coming sales novel The 10 Commandments of Selling: Story of Danial, to be launched world-wide by June 2010.

He has trained sales staff for companies like Haier, Silk Bank, Habib Bank, Arif Habib Investments, Pakola, Culligan Water, Indus Motors, FMC, Sanofi-Aventis, Getz Pharma, Fecto Cement, NJI etc.
