Fractional CMO | Digital Marketer | Content Creator
I’ve known Sameer for 10+ years and a few things have always stood out – namely his intelligence, character, and willingness to help others. I’m so impressed with the work he’s done in co-founding Girl Power Talk, where he focuses on empowering women to achieve successful careers and/or become purposeful entrepreneurs. Sameer is an asset as a business partner and friend.
His company, Blue Ocean Global Tech, provides excellent online reputation management, digital transformation, and internet marketing services. Sameer commitment to learning and achieving results is unending, which underpins the opportunities he receives to serve as an expert witness in court cases related to internet defamation and digital presence. I would highly recommend working with Sameer!

You are not going to find a better human being than Sameer Somal. I have worked with Sameer in various capacities over the last decade. His team does phenomenal work. I have used his services for a number of years and have received many compliments because of Sameer. I feel so comfortable with SSS that I have recommended him to a number of my clients. I know that every time I introduce him to one of my clients, he will treat them like they are family. The greatest compliment that I have received is when my clients refer him to their clients. The quality of work that he does is second to none.
Besides his impeccable work ethic, he is a quality individual. He has a very calming and compassionate disposition. I have learned countless life lessons from my interactions with Sameer. I have tried to emulate him in many ways and have found myself utilizing a lot of his quotes. I am proud to call Sameer a friend and brother. Your life will be leaps and bounds better by your interactions with Sameer. He is my go to reference when I need to impress someone.

Our firm was introduced to Sameer and Blue Ocean Global Technology several years ago and he has made a significantly positive impact on our business. Our return on investment in Sameer and Blue Ocean Global Technology has been extremely favorable.The financial industry is full of noise and we were finding it difficult to modernize our communications to more effectively demonstrate our industry leadership and the unique differences that have contributed to the growth of Everspire. We were further challenged with coordinating a number of moving parts within a flexible communication strategy.
We are so fortunate to be working with Sameer. He is generous and genuine, intelligent and resourceful. He gets us, and he gets our clients and has been an invaluable bridge in helping the right people find Everspire and also helping our team and our clients better communicated and understand our value proposition. Sameer’s global team proactively makes recommendations and then helps to implement with purpose.
I trust Sameer and appreciate his commitment to impact investing through Girl Power Talk. I have two daughters and I am keenly aware of the extreme gender inequities in the financial industry. His support and development of future female leaders means a lot to me and speaks volumes about his character.

I have known Sameer for nearly 5 years and have partnered with him on many projects. His energy never ceases to amaze me, nor does his desire to lift the spirits of all around him, no matter where he is.
Sameer has been a resource I can turn to for insight on so many topics – from leadership to politics to technology to marketing & communication to financial services & the global economy. And while he may be a CEO of a global technology company, managing director of another, and on many boards, all of that is a distant second to his passion for making the world a better place, especially for those in areas that typically do not receive the same opportunities as others. Whether it be with the Women Economic Forum or Girl Power Talk, Sameer has devoted a majority of his time to gender equality, improving education where needed, and mentoring the next generation.
Anyone who knows Sameer knows that even with all of his accomplishments, he treats everyone as an equal, and he’s one of the most down to earth leaders you will ever meet.

Sameer lives outside the cliche’s of life. Let me put it this way: If you were looking for someone totally committed to helping in a mission, a cause, or company you would want Sameer. If you were looking for someone who would drop everything to help you, who knows the best and worst about you, someone with empathy and understanding, in short someone you call a “true friend” , you would want Sameer.
If you want someone who has aligned themselves with the great causes of women you will want Sameer. If you want someone who gives a damn about kids that are abused,misplaced, without direction, kicked to the curb, and need help get Sameer. If you want someone to give a mesmerizing presentation get Sameer. He will stay up all night doing relentless research on the subject and the audience and inspire your audience to action.
If you want someone with a consistent well defined philosophy of life combined with a remarkable code of ethics you want Sameer. If you want a leader with emotional and academic intelligence combined with magnetic charisma check in with Sameer. If you want a team player who has been in the trenches as well as the mountain tops Sameer has been there.
If you want someone to help stabilize your business and take it to greater fulfillment Sameer will be there for you. If you need a George Gilder tech genius as a resource., Sameer knows the best and can bring innovative solutions to your challenges. ( the right wing radio host Rush Limbaugh said if he could choose another brain it would be Gilder’s.)
If you need someone to trust with integrity and accountability you need to meet Sameer. I could go on but I think you know how I feel about this guy now. I have known and been a friend for over two decades.
