Entrepreneurs: Commit to building, not to comfort; with Mongezi Mtati
Mongezi Mtati, Digital and Marketing Strategist, shares how he faced the fear of quitting his job to start his first business. It failed, and the learnings were well worth it as he kept building, and has had a few other (ad)ventures on his way to where he is now. He shares some ideas around selling and the fear of rejection, and that we, as entrepreneurs, need to be less committed to comfort to succeed at building a business.
Mongezi is also one of the judges in the search for the onematchstick start-up entrepreneur. He and Telana explain the process and he suggests some tips for those entrepreneurs considering applying for the office space. (For details of this search and how to apply, click here.)
