Do you have a Will for your business?

When the phrase "exit strategy" come to mind, we often refer to Merger and Acquisition, IPO, Liquidation or selling to someone you know.

These are all lekker strategies, but a common mistake we as entrepreneurs tend to make is, we think we will be alive and well when they happen.

So this begs the question, what happens when life throws a spanner in the works, or rather death? A whole range of mess if you don't have your ducks in a row...

Did you know there is a lovely little agreement you can put in place to resolve the complexities of passing on your business/interest when you die?

"Dress the way you want to be addressed"

No matter how you slice & dice it, the way you dress has a huge impact on how you are perceived by others. Thank you Leisl Hillman - Image Consultant & Stylist for reminding us of this important fact🤩👔

Such a pleasure to meet two gentlemen in the Financial world Clement Buckton and Brendan Mettler.

As an Entrepreneur that has so much to learn about the financial side of things, I am rather excited about our meeting and what the future holds.

Did you know that trees can speak to each other?

Mycorrhizae describes the association between the roots of the trees and the fungi within the soil. It is through this symbiotic relationship that a network among trees and foliage within the forest is established. And it is through this network that trees not only have the ability to speak to each other, but also share warning signs, and nutrients for the greater good of the entire forest.🌳🌳🌲🌲

George Gerard Stubbs and Pearl Dianne Hitzeroth, congratulations on the successful launch of the Dynamic Network Association(DNA). I know that the DNA Business Network platform will provide an invaluable resource where entrepreneurs can engage and have access to a network to speak to each other, share information and knowledge and even the so-called "Nutrients" for the growth and greater good of the entire DNA network.

Here's a few pics from the awesome launch of the DNA business network held at the exquisite Quoin Rock Estate🌟, and if you'd like more information on how to join the DNA network please check out this link below or contact Pearl or George directly.

As my brother Clement Buckton and I prayed for God’s blessing over the "DNA Launch - in collaboration with Sanlam event" we had faith we were in for an amazing evening. And I would think by now I wouldn't be surprised by what God can do, but I didn't envisage He would bless us the way He did. Thank you JESUS!🙏

Then, a huge appreciation to our lovely guests, who turned out in numbers despite the weather. I hope your evening was as enjoyable as ours, and that the insights shared by our panel of financial experts Sanlam, Glacier by Sanlam and Sanlam Private Wealth will be helpful in taking your businesses to the next level.💪🏽

Our partners George Gerard Stubbs and Pearl Dianne Hitzeroth, it was an absolute pleasure working together on the Business launch of the Dynamic Network Association (DNA). You are working on something truely special and I look forward to working with you and seeing your business, network and platform grow.👏🏽

I also could not be more proud of representing Sanlam an organization that will go above and beyond to see their people achieve excellence. To our dream team, Sam, Portia Sassman and Lucretia Vockerodt Roberts, you are awesome. 🤩

And another huge thank you to the awesome Ard Matthews for capping off an evening to remember 🎤🎸

I got through a lot of my financial education by trying to break down complex financial concepts into relatable bite-sized stories. Hopefully this video will do the same for you as it relates to one of the most commonly used tax deductions out there. Enjoy 🤩🇿🇦😉

Depending on how you use them, both these investment vehicles could be a valuable addition to your retirement plan, and perhaps even compliment each other. But if you had to choose one???
