The Doers School of Entrepreneurship Learning

Hallo Everyone! Sorry for the loooong silence. We have however come to the conclusion that we need to turn this business into something. It has sadly not worked well for us. A business must thrive in order for you to keep pursuing it. We feel that this business will work better as a sub-component of what we plan to branch into. It is thus not the end of our most beloved school. We shall inform you of our next plan when it is certain. For those still interested in our virtual internship program, we could still offer this service to you. You can send us an email. We thank you all for your support. Remember to always be a DOER!

Have you ever had to beg for a reference letter? Stop this practice by being a better person to people you supervise🤔

Don't always wait to learn something from class. Strive to learn things on your own.

Have you ever thought of writing a book, to earn some passive income. Well, please go ahead.

Writing is something you can easily do, if you have access to a computer. You only need an book idea, inspiration, dedication and time. If you do all the work yourself, it won't even cost you anything. You can edit the book on your own and you can also make a fancy book cover for it yourself, using PowerPoint.

The book doesn’t even have to be long. There are also many online platforms on which you can publish and sell your book for free . While they take the greater portion of what you earn, the little you get is better than nothing. Moreover, you get to be famous for your work.

You however need a bank account, to collect your money from the book sells.

So get writing!!! 💰🤑🤓

Due to fewer numbers of people that are keen on using Facebook, outside Lusaka and Kitwe, many businesses that supply locally, in other towns, find it pointless to advertise on Facebook; as the few people that end-up seeing their posts, may not even live within their town.
For such businesses, advertising on Facebook would still be good for keeping a few of their local customers, up-to-date with their business services. It would also be advantageous for attracting customers, used to getting information on Facebook that are new in their town.
So, if it is not too much trouble, businesses that only supply locally, outside Lusaka and Kitwe, should still advertise on Facebook, or indeed on any other social media platform.
Even if not so active, an online presence is still good to maintain, to allow people to easily reach a business.

The demand is surely high, but the help limited. Let us try to think of ways to start (or expand) that business with the lowest possible resources; that we can manage to put up on our own or that people can manage to easily lend us.

Don't give up.

Have you ever thought of how much time you waste? It's important to make the best use of the time you have. Use your idle time to develop a plan for something. Whether you get to carry out the plan or not, you would have at least used your time to learn how to plan.

Running your own business can be a humbling experience, especially before mastering how to get it right.
