Man you have to tell pple to stop paying DSTV, they must install Wi-Fi in their homes, coz we not learning anything from Genaration, Uzalo but with WiFi i can listen to you i can listen to Denzel Washington n im learning big... Ey i dont watch tv now im work for someone now getting 12,000 salary n my business gives me 10,000 every month
Vusi, I'm not sure why I'm just now hearing about you brother! But I'm glad I did. You've just eloquently articulated what I believe. This is not just for South Africans, but all of Africa. Thank you sir!
"But I am not going to give you 3M to buy a farm and buildings and put eggs in it and chickens and then sit and wait for some miracles to happen." I like this statement. You hit the nail on the head brother.
I personally believe business plans are important because it sort of creates a relationship between the entrepreneur and the business itself, if you don't plan, you plan on failing. A business plan is the constitution of a business, just as a country can not run without a constitution so can a business not run without a document. It is fundamental that the business owner has a relationship and a broader understanding of the aspects of the business. Maybe Vusi speaks as he does because of his long term experience but for the beginners and even for those who are not beginning planning is good and having a document which directs the business is absolutely important in ensuring plans are executed. As an entrepreneur one is an architect and the plan is something which the architect plans on executing those very plans.
10000% agree, however, you constantly have to GROW and ADAPT to constant changing markets which could be volatile at times and you have to be prepared for the unexpected and WHEN the unexpected happens, adapt...
Yeah I definitely agree on that one how can you jump into something being tested rather than putting thought into something, you try and jump into a certain market where there are big sharks out there and you'll most likely get destroyed by the competition unless having a business plan to exceed for a more precise knowledge in your business just puts more assurance in the business idea.
I think I've watched this a 1000 times. I can even recite the words😂😂😂... I've never seen an interviewer that can match Vusi like this.. Props to the both of them 🙌🏾
As former Dutch retail banker: a businessplan can be helpful, and especially for starters or in experience entrepreneurs. It gives you the structure, to execute a successful and profitable mature business. Remember that it has to be crystal clear what you want, financialplan, prognose 24mnd exploration and liquidity needs. Are you complaint? regulations, etc. banks only finance assets and credit liquidity , no salaries or management fees. for idees you need investers, stockexchange etc.
I am a 24 year old man with a mission and vision of building an empire one day..just realized reading your book and books to be released would be a first step towards the goal.. raw facts for current generation and coming one. Thanks
Wow! This video needs to be re-trend, re-cycle, viewed and shared many more times again...so inspirational. We all need to get up and make the world a better place through entreprenuership. Thank you!
Extremely educational and mind opening. As an entrepreneur and business UA-camr i cant stress enough how important it is to be humble and start small and be patient.
I learnt what you addressed late 😩but I'm glad I'm on the right track 😊. Worst mistake I made was to cease embarking on my plan due to lack of funds. Do what you can, with what you have 😊
Thank u so much Sir for teaching us how to grow on all sides. Sir,l have been a single woman for 10yrs and it's from hand to mouth l sell frozen foods and food packs and l want to stop that hand to mouth thing cos it's making my business go down so much. Pls l need your advice to be able to stand on my own in business and in all sides. Thank you
Hi, my names are James Jallah. I am from Liberia, Africa. Thanks so much for the knowledge. I'm a small business owner and your wisdom have increased my desire more.
Boss, I have to hand it over to you! You're wise, intelligent and very knowledgeable. You're a light to those of us who are "in the dark engine room" building our businesses! There's hope for Africa.
Hi Mr. Vusi thembekwayo am from cameroon and am really enjoying your teachings let's as Africans learn from this Indians and asians ,I really wish you and your team can organize a workshop in cameroon
Wow! This video blew my mind Vusi your Pession is uzzing and I'm in awe. I'm a young entrepreneur strunggling to make earns meat but my dream are bigger than what I'm facing now.
I TRULY BELIEVE THIS MAN IS MY ROLE MODEL.I WANT TO GET IN THE CANNABIS INDUSTRY AND I HAVE BIG DREAMS BUT IM STARTING SMAL.EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY THINK IM CRAZY WHEN I SAY I WANT TO DO ENTREPRENEUR.THEY ARE SCEPTICAL ABOUT MY PLAN.ITRIED TELLING THAT THE BEST WAY TO BECOME AN ENTREPRENEUR IS TO START WITH A MVP.I ADOPTED THIS MINDSET BECAUSE I REALIZED THAT PEOPLE WHO STARTED SMALL BUSINESSES IS BECAUSE THEY START BIG BUT SMALL.
Sunrise was the best.... This lady was the best at interviewing people .... And then Vusi is just the best as well ... Such information is needed to be programmed in the minds of black South Africans who are entrepreneurs and those who are working towards being entrepreneurs
happily surprised to see a bro from DRC who listen to this phenomenal person (vusi) a true inspiration. I am on my way to start my own business and I am learning a lot from him. we definitely need him in DRC, but the language would be a barrier coz not so many Congolese speak English.
This is the type of guy that get the job in a 1st minute the interview started and if the interview was meant to take 30 minutes it takes 2 hours. This is what "thinking outside the box" mean.
Key points Biznis plans are not vital You have to do it. Do what you have to do to do what you need to do. Get your thinking right, big businesses are.not built overnight Start where you are. Transform your mind, understand that you're building for the first ten years.
@Vusi,,, what i have learnt is, we black people we think we are too late so we have to run run run even though we don't know where are the running to, and we don't care if running needs stamina (discipline). I like the Indian example of family businesses and succession plans,, selfishness is killing us😞
The powers that be in our country will suppress him. They don't like the truth. The start up owners will not take h seriously. They would rather listen to pastors.
One of the best interviews I've ever seen in my entire life! Both the lady and Mr. Thembekwayo have phenomenal minds!
YES! I agree
True
Facts !!!

I came here to make this comment, and I found. You beat me to it.
UA-cam recommending this 7years later is wild. Love it.
Beautiful interview.
Man you have to tell pple to stop paying DSTV, they must install Wi-Fi in their homes, coz we not learning anything from Genaration, Uzalo but with WiFi i can listen to you i can listen to Denzel Washington n im learning big...

That's true
Yes yes yes yes and yes

Vusi, you speak the truth. The principles you discuss here is relevant for any person doing his own business!!
Financial track record, waaaw!!!
Vusi, I'm not sure why I'm just now hearing about you brother! But I'm glad I did. You've just eloquently articulated what I believe. This is not just for South Africans, but all of Africa. Thank you sir!
Salem Soni , brother we're listening here in the the U.S.A. as well. I have so much respect for this young man.
"Start where you're, do wat u've to do, so you can do wat u want to do" (9:49) Nice message!!
Stumbling into your UA-cam channel was one of the greatest things that happened to my entrepreneuring live. .. from Nigeria
Same here bro #connect me for more
The best thing I've learnt is that a small business doesn't need a business plan
"But I am not going to give you 3M to buy a farm and buildings and put eggs in it and chickens and then sit and wait for some miracles to happen." I like this statement. You hit the nail on the head brother.
it's about time we had brains like these on the continent
SouthAfrican language sounds woop

The start up owners will not take h seriously. They would rather listen to pastors.
This is phenomenal 😍
