About Open Sesame
Our journey started in 2008 with an idea to help first-time entrepreneurs build their digital brands and grow their businesses. Fast forward to today, we are still here working with hundreds of brands across the world with no signs of slowing down!
Our story

In 2008, Arvin Poole, a marketing tech expert and visionary entrepreneur, founded Open Sesame with just $50 and a mission to “open doors and plant seeds” for first-time entrepreneurs. After two days of brainstorming over 50 potential names, inspiration struck, and “Open Sesame” perfectly captured his vision.
Coincidentally, the .me domain was newly available, and opensesa.me was secured for $50. Fast forward to today, Open Sesame has evolved from startup consulting to a SaaS platform and now a full-service digital agency, staying true to its core mission of empowering entrepreneurs to thrive and scale.
