    I was really touched when Vusi shared that he almost lost his business. This really proves that he pours his heart and soul into these masterclasses.

    It takes 20 years to build a reputation for ur business and 5 minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently so when running a business you need to know how to rebuild

  • @toko781
    @toko781 Před 3 lety +1

    That's a good point, however I think it will not be easy to get an investor who is willing to give R75 for 75% of your business whose value is R100, only for you to give him back the exact R75 after 3 yrs when the business sales and value has quadruple (R100 to R400) in return for 50% share.
    It should be noted that 50% share of the business when value has quadruple is cash valued at R200. So do u really think an investor will exchange R200 for an initial R75 after 3yrs🤔
    Even if the investor will be keeping 25% share of the business as a reward for his risk after paying him the initial R75. Trust me any investor will want to keep holding that 75% share for 75% equity (R300) because the business is making good margins.

    I think you need add a monetary thanks option to your videos, they are extremely down to earth and there is no content like this on CZcams , believe me i have listened to business related videos for years now and this is unique . The option gives people an opportunity t say thanks with a small follar amount like $2 . I dont pay for entertaining videos which dont have any value in them and i would pay for this

    Did you build your business to scale??
    Not all businesses are scalable
    ..I build my professional speaking business i build it for scale
    I build teams for research other for marketing ...etc
    I'm just delivere the speech.
    But i take time to build those teams
    I thought of my self as an entrepreneur who happens to be professional speaker .
    Know your strengths and weaknesses
    I'm amazing leader but a bad manager
    Entrepreneurs are great at leading but bat at management because they feel like they need to make all the desitions.
    You need to let others manage
    Now your problem is finding the right people
    And pay them for their skills
    If you can't pay them for their skills let them pay themselves
    Pay them salary and a persantage
    Note that you going to get it wrong many times
    Untill you find the People you need .
    3 types of capitals in a business:-
    Human capital
    Financial capital
    Market capital ( access to the market . Brand that resonates...etc )
    And these 3 are constantly moving up and down
    The hardest thing is when you have to fire someone who is loyal ?
    Because he is loyal but incompetent.
    Culture is not what you say
    culture is what you do and what you reward
    And your people keep doing
    You have to always stay in the field of play because you can't score sitting in the grandstands

    One thing though, hayikabi bro you’re one of the BEST at what you do certainly,but you’re coming across as a bit arrogant with presenting while sipping coffee bro,I ain never seen the likes of Bob Proctor,Tony Robbins, Dave Rubenstein etc take the stage with beverages(water they do)I think that goes with taking their audience/listeners seriously and respecting them despite their social standing.
    Fede,first time watching your presentation and kudos bhuti👍🏿 keep inspiring others to reach better heights.
