Most entrepreneurs think leverage is having a good idea and selling it to the right person. That's not leverage. That's begging dressed up as pitching.
In this episode of The Diaspora Playbook, I break down what leverage actually means in the African context – and why most people are building the wrong kind of business.
We cover:
1. The wrong kind of business – why the candle business from your home will never give you leverage
2. What real leverage looks like – the DRC energy license example (licenses are being given away almost for free)
3. The three types of leverage: relationship, capital, and asset/control
4. The diaspora mistake – building businesses anyone can copy instead of owning the bottleneck
5. The final point – building businesses that others can leverage from
If you're tired of pitching and ready to start controlling, this episode is for you.
