About Me

My Story

Hi, my name is Asaf Paz and I’m a highly skilled, focused and ambitious serial entrepreneur.

I co-founded my first company, WEBSEM, with Mickey Lerner when I was only 21 years old. Today, WEBSEM is a name synonymous with quality, innovation and success.

As one of the most successful online advertising agencies in Israel, WEBSEM caters to a vast group of clients from the private as well as the public sector. Our team comprises of over thirty full-time, passionate, dedicated employees who manage, strategize and support our clients’ needs.

WEBSEM has a unique partnership with Google and is now an Official Google Training Center. As a young and enthusiastic advertising agency co-founder, I lectured and trained agencies during official summits of Google Partners held in various countries such as Ireland, Romania, Portugal, Greece, South-Africa, Czech Republic and Turkey.

After a successful decade of building WEBSEM, I co-founded a new startup - Qualimatch.

Qualimatch is a smart platform that aims to match marketers who look for a job or ones that seek to progress, with their dream jobs.

Currently, I’m focusing all my attention towards Qualimatch. With the vast amount of experience and knowledge that I have gained in the past eleven years, I am now looking to make Qualimatch a billion dollar company that provides plenty of opportunities for marketers and companies across the globe.
