Who is Tim?
I'm Tim Cakir, CEO of TaskDrive and an expert in driving revenue growth. With my team, I've helped hundreds of companies achieve their goals, from securing funding to increasing revenue.
I'm proud to have a track record that includes securing 1.7 million euros in Horizon 2020 funding for two startups and growing one startup's monthly recurring revenue from $80k to $300k in less than 18 months. I've also completed numerous projects, including implementing OKRs, building company dashboards, rebranding, and launching new products.
In the past year, my focus has shifted towards the exciting field of Artificial Intelligence. I've dedicated extensive time to understanding AI, particularly ChatGPT, which has become an invaluable tool I affectionately refer to as 'my best friend'. My journey has made me skilled in creating tailored GPT models, such as Revenue Catalyst and GammaScout. I'm also passionate about sharing this knowledge and conducting live sessions to teach the effective use of AI in enhancing workplace productivity.
As a growth consultant and CEO with a newfound interest in AI, I look forward to discussing on your podcast how AI and AI-powered tools, like ChatGPT, can revolutionize business growth strategies.
