This is a quick, focused conversation to:
- Learn about your goals and challenges
- Share how I typically work with clients
- Decide together if moving forward makes sense

No pressure - no pitch. We check goals and constraints. Next steps only if it fits.
What clients say
Gwyn WansbroughFacilitator, Trainer, Course Creator, Live Session Magic
“I’m still AMAZED at how much value I got out of just one 90-minute coaching session with Said. I’d been stuck with a home studio setup that just wasn’t working. I’d spent hours fiddling, tweaking, second-guessing—never quite getting it right. Said changed all that. He helped me troubleshoot every single issue—step by step—with calm, expert guidance. He recommended gear options at different price points (so I could make decisions that fit my budget). He answered every question. No fluff. No overwhelm. Just solid, practical advice. I followed his recommendations to the letter. And now? I have a setup I can trust—reliable, consistent, and finally off my mind. If you’re spinning your wheels trying to get your tech sorted, stop. Book a session with Said. I only wish I’d done it sooner!”
Ruben GazkiMeeting Leader Coach, Optimus Kompetanse AS
“The session with Said was fun, efficient and very well tailored to my needs. Said demonstrates and explains even pretty technical things in a way that makes them easily understandable, and he mada sure I knew how to do things myself before moving on. All in all, it was a transformative session that gave me so much value!”

“It is super fun and informative at the same time. And yes, every single time I take something away and I immediately want to try out all the different options and ideas myself. Very helpful to procrastinate on other boring topics (like filing taxes...) ;-) I would recommend this newsletter to any facilitator who is working online. I still know a lot of facilitators who do not like online sessions, little do they know. Need to go, Camo download is ready :-)”

“Said is a world-class virtual facilitation expert. If you want to learn from someone with deep technical knowledge and a calm, grounded presence, book time with Said immediately. I had two private sessions and walked away feeling more confident in my skills and excited about what I can bring to my virtual audiences. Thank you, Said. The world needs more of your brilliance.”
Gurpreet BajajDirector, Qi Mind Labs
“I came in thinking “OBS looks scary” and left thinking “I got this!” What I found most valuable was Said’s steady, beginner-friendly pace with no jargon overload, no tech flexing, just clean, focused guidance on the basics. He kept it real (and human!), trimming the fluff and helping us cut through the overwhelming bells and whistles. Thanks to this, I can now reimagine my client meetings and workshops with tiny but high-impact setups (without a production crew). It’s also given me a clearer way to storyboard and elevate my training delivery. If you're a facilitator, coach, trainer, or just someone tired of looking like a potato on Zoom, I highly recommend this! Said’s your guy to level up your virtual presence without losing your mind!”

“This is one of the best weekly business-oriented newsletters that I read - regarding tools and best practices for the facilitation component of my coaching work - thank you Said! I really appreciate the content included in the newsletter - it's jam-packed with extremely useful information. Based on a few newsletters, I have re-organized my desk/virtual setup space, selected the best technology to optimize my workspace, and feel more up-to-date on tools that I can use to do my online facilitation work (running coaching groups). I subscribe to lots of different email lists/newsletters - I probably only read 10% of them regularly, and this is one of them that I always find time for.”

“I had the pleasure of working with Said as a workshop producer for multiple team-building sessions using the Butter.us platform, and I can confidently say he was instrumental in making them a success. This was my first time leveraging Butter for this type of session, and Said made the entire process seamless. From the start, he helped me get comfortable with the platform, offering thoughtful suggestions on how to structure engaging activities that would keep energy levels high—even for an all-day online workshop (no small feat!). Throughout the session, he was more than just a producer; he was an active partner. He kept me on track with the agenda, engaged directly with participants, and provided real-time suggestions that enhanced the experience. His support didn’t stop there—before, during, and after the session, he shared valuable recommendations that I’ll carry forward in future workshops. Said genuinely cares about the quality of the experience, not just from a technical standpoint, but in ensuring that every participant walks away feeling engaged and energized. If you're looking for a workshop producer who is proactive, detail-oriented, and committed to making sessions as impactful as possible, I highly recommend working with him!”

“If you see anyone doing cool and entertaining things in virtual meetings, they probably learned it and got inspired by Said. He showed me some really helpful stuff in OBS Studio, and as he is a really good-hearted person, he is the one you should connect with for your next workshop. Enough SAID, connect with him and hire him for the boring meetings. He will facilitain them”

“I attended Said’s session on Luma to learn about event hosting & ticketing. The walkthrough enabled me to immediately start testing the tool with an upcoming webinar, and I had great results for registrations and attendance. Said has amazing expertise in hosting virtual events and I’m excited to learn much more. Thank you, Said - for helping me find the fastest path to filling my first virtual event with Luma!”

“As an Online-Trainer, I have to be always up to date. Not easy with all that new upcoming stuff. I struggled for a time with some OBS Studio and Stream Deck issues and couldn’t figure it out on my own. So, I decided to take a 1-on-1 Coaching with Said. Long story short: Best investment of time! Within 90 minutes, Said walked me through all my questions which I couldn’t solve for the last couple of weeks. He taught me how to set up animated lower thirds and gave me step-by-step explanations for some OBS filters. On top of that, he gave me useful advice for some extremely helpful Stream Deck plugins. Awesome. I particularly loved the patient and calm way Said walked me through. His structured explanations were the perfect way for me to completely understand what I have to do. The next day, I was so excited to use the new features in my Coaching Sessions. Great thanks to you, Said. Kai Magaldi Online Coach for Authentic Personal Branding”
Nathan GoldChief Coach, The Demo Coach
“I recently had the pleasure of participating in a coaching session with Said, focusing on optimizing and improving my OBS Studio setup. Despite being an experienced OBS user myself, Said's insights and expertise were invaluable in enhancing my workflow and improving the quality of my live-streaming and recording sessions. Throughout the session, Said demonstrated a deep understanding of OBS Studio and shared practical tips I could apply immediately. His willingness to provide ongoing support and plugin recommendations further exemplifies his commitment to client success. I am grateful for Said's expertise and look forward to implementing the changes discussed. I highly recommend his coaching services to anyone looking to elevate their OBS Studio setup, whether you're a beginner or an experienced user like myself. Thank you, Said, for exceeding my expectations and delivering exceptional value for investment of time and money. Nathan Gold”

“For me the most valuable part of getting started with Stream Deck was going through the use cases of the different buttons. How you can really make your (work)life more organised and fun. The session helped me getting over the threshold of testing and finding out what you can do with your Stream Deck. For next week I will dedicate time to experiment. I would absolutely recommend it to others, because Said enthusiastically guides you through the material and beyond. It was a pleasure to be in this session!”
Ana M MarinInternal Coaching Manager
“I loved catching the basics of working with OBS from Said. The tool is quite intuitive (I know now after the session with Said😁) and yet trying to learn the basics on my own I felt overwhelmed, didn't know where to start the exploration or how to create a flow. The session with Said made it all so easy to understand how and more important from where to start the exploration. Said has a lot of passion and adapted to my speed, he supported me when I had questions, was open to share best practices from his experience and made sure I have a full grasp of the info and I can put it in practice. Prepare pictures, logos and presentations that you know you want to use in near future and utilize them during this training - in that way at the end of the session with Said you will leave with a full flow that is ready to use. I fully recommend Said' sessions - with his guidance OBS becomes so easy to use and it will elevate your online training experience for your participants.”

“I’ve had the chance to work with Said as part of the Butter Community for over one year now. He has host some wonderfully informative and engaging events for the community, helping us elevate our OBS and Stream Deck skills to have a bigger impact as virtual facilitators. Said is very creative in the design of his sessions and brings lots of knowledge and patience for all the questions coming the audience. No matter what topic he chose to showcase, our audience always left refreshed, full of new ideas and with a little bit of awe for the magic Said creates. 😁 He also coaches and collaborates with some of our experts on tech-enhanced facilitation skills, and I would recommend his courses and consulting services to anyone looking to upskill in that area. Thank you for all your proactivity, Said, I am grateful I got the chance to work with you and I can’t wait for more collaboration opportunities!!”
