Experienced. Enthusiastic. Pragmatic. Resilient.
Ed Badawi
Co-Founder
Ed commenced his corporate career as a customer service professional and transitioned to financial markets investment advisory over time. He quickly realised that the traditional approach to selling was ineffective in the harsh post-GFC world of finance. As such, he consciously applied a customer-centric mentality to empowering decision-makers instead of pressuring them. Ed broke down the nuances of his approach and has helped grow and scale businesses in various sectors since 2013. He’s launched multiple start-ups and consulted for private and public organisations before working with Nicholas to scale this approach through their unique service business.
Nicholas Forsyth
Co-Founder
After earning his Accounting and Finance degree in 2011, Nicholas became a Financial Investment Advisor at a Sydney-based boutique investment firm, where he met Ed. By 2014, he co-founded a financial markets-based investment advisory business, where he sought Ed’s advice to refine and scale the in-house sales proccess. Within a year, they increased the subscriber base by 700% and scaled a team of half-a-dozen high-performing investment advisors. In 2017 he and Ed formally became business partners after he encouraged Ed to leverage his tried and tested approach to help more businesses grow and scale. Nicholas oversees the service and data teams and ensures Sales Inc never miss a mandate.
