Building businesses in tough times

According to Nic, if one can change one's perspective, then your perspective can change your business.

One of South Africa’s most successful young entrepreneurs and global speaker, Nic Haralambous was the special guest speaker at the most recent Hirsch’s Entrepreneurs Workshop.

Nic who consults businesses globally shared with the attendees some useful tips on building businesses in difficult times.

The workshops are hosted by dynamic duo Margaret Hirsch and Marlene Powell on a weekly basis.

According to the organisers, entrepreneurs both new and well-established who have attended these events over the years have found the workshops to be beneficial to their businesses.

“The combination of Margaret and Marlene is dynamic. During these sessions, I have learnt so much from every speaker that they have brought on and it has been so uplifting.

“It has just pushed me to do better every time and when I have bad days, the highlight of my week is always Hirsch’s Webinars on Fridays.

“At the end of the sessions I just feel that I can do so much more,” commented one regular attendee, Heidi Black from InTheBlack Accounting services.

The recent session entitled ‘Locked and Loaded’ saw serial entrepreneur, Nic, who has sold three businesses in the past decade.

“I learnt many lessons through failure and success over an intense and exciting twenty-year obsession as an entrepreneur. My work focuses on helping people start and build businesses,” explained Nic.

According to Nic, if one can change one’s perspective, then your perspective can change your business.

Marlene suggested that business owners reset their success triggers, and work with a firm plan in place while finding the time to work on their business and spending time doing what they are passionate about outside the business to avoid burnout.

Attendees were also encouraged to subscribe to Nic’s newsletter, nharry.com to get more valuable advice from this young icon in the business world.

The next workshop will be on 23 October between 11am and 12 noon entitled ‘How To Future-Proof Your Business’ with guest speakers, Mark Sham from Suits and Sneakers, and Attorney, Robyn Hey.
