Consulting and Strategy (Partnerships and Product Growth)

Over the past 10+ years, I went from being a freelance project manager to building a 7-figure agency that employs over 20 people.

I briefly stepped down as day-to-day CEO at Tako Agency in 2021 and started my product studio, 920Four.com. Now I run both agencies. 

I became interested in building SaaS products in early 2018 when I started Tako Agency, and my goal was to cater to the niche-SaaS business market. Since then, I have built Sparetoolz.com, Thymeline.co, and a few others, and more are in the works. 

I am a multi-passionate entrepreneur, and I am on a mission to help freelancers, early agency owners, and digital product builders grow their businesses. 

What I have done and what I am doing:

→ Currently building www.thymeline.co at www.920four.com.

→ Built Tako Agency | 7-figure eCommerce agency. 

→ Built Sparetoolz | a peer-to-peer tool rental marketplace. 

→ Built 920Four | Product studio focused on niche products.

→ Growing my personal brand | www.zlatkobijelic.com
