ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND AGRESSION
If you have ever passed through Pinnacle mall in kabulonga, you will notice something, especially if you are about to drive in the mall or even just passing by, the way the mobile money agents come rushing towards a car will tell you something about selling, on one or two occasions have withdrawn money from there not because I planned or wanted, but the aggression the guys use will make you question yourself as why you even have money in your mobile account😂. In short entrepreneurship is not about the fancy office, fancy dress etc, all that is good ,but it has a place, you need to be out there to make a sale, and one thing about those guys is, they will never tell you “I don’t have space”(float ) no matter the amount you want, all they will do is signal to the friend who has enough to combine forces and a sale is made! Unlike some agents in other places who will gladly tell you “no float” and watch you walk away.
That places makes an interesting case study for entrepreneurs and beats the notion that Zambians are not aggressive when it comes to business.
If there’s a skill an entrepreneur or anybody needs to learn is the art of selling.
