ABOUT THE SHOW🎬

"HOW THEY DID IT" a show that tells the authentic story of African businesses whilst drawing lessons for upcoming entrepreneurs.

The Challenge:
There is a growing demand to tell our stories. Most of the stories told online are of foreign businesses, and where you find an African story, it is most likely a surface-level interview that aims mostly to motivate and not necessarily teach.

This is the unique value of this show:
In addition to it being designed to educate, motivate, and inspire, which is truthfully a key factor in boosting self-confidence, we will be emphasizing key lessons from the video interviews.
