But despite all that, I had a dream which I always wanted to accomplish; I wanted to make my name in the field of internet related technology since I was very curious about it since my childhood.”
As said by Paulo Coelho, “when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” So, the story of Syed Asif Ali reinforces this statement since the shifting of his family to Dera Ismail Khan made his access to internet comparatively easier than living in his hometown. “At the age of eight, military operations in South Waziristan compelled us to move to Dera Ismail Khan where, to my good luck, I found access to internet relatively easier than in my village.

The strong foresight of this amazing man also came true when the social media gained more prominence. He told us that “I knew that the upcoming era will be reigned by social media. Thus, I made a good use of YouTube and strongly polished my skills in the field of digital marketing.” After he became a complete master of the digital marketing, he said that “I opened a company by the name of Point Media. Point Media is a platform that offers its services of solving any sort of technical issues with the social media accounts of people. In a very limited time, our company has gained a lot of reliability only because of our expertise and dedication.”
Asif also disclosed that Point Media offers the services of web advertising too because it has gained a lot of demand nowadays. Moreover, adding to the accomplishments of the Point Media, Syed Asif Ali proudly said that a number of politicians and digital stars have made their way to Point Media whenever their social media accounts got any sort of technical problems.
