What happens when one of Google's youngest partnership managers discovers he can generate the perfect partnership in seconds using AI? Meet Sal Mohammed, founder of Quick to Act (QTA) and LangSync, who's driven over £200 million in incremental revenue through partnerships and is now revolutionising how businesses find each other using AI. From his early days at Telefonica O2's B2B division to leading tech partnerships at Google, Sal reveals the brutal reality: half of all web traffic will disappear to AI search by 2028.
Sal exposes how 75% of global GDP flows through partnerships that most SMBs don't even realise they're missing. He breaks down his custom AI partnership generator that spits out better ideas than he can come up with, complete with business models, legal frameworks, and go-to-market strategies. Discover why he believes retail is entering a golden age where solo entrepreneurs can compete with massive corporations using AI leverage, his controversial prediction about the death of traditional websites, and why partnerships trump technology every time. From festival logistics nightmares to building healthcare charities in Nigeria, this episode delivers cutting-edge partnership strategies and bold predictions about the AI-powered future of retail.
