The Entrepreneurship Centre works for you!

It is always great when you see hard work is paying off.

Today, one of the Entrepreneurship Centre's clients found out. His name is Simpihwe Ntshayi (aka TaSimpra), a young photographer from Makhaza, Khayelitsha. Instead of living from street photography he decided to focus on more specialised services like wedding & children photography, lamination and CV-building. We spent quite some hours working on target markets, costing and financial planning. The main challenge was the gathering of all the information needed to make a sound business plan, the main advantage in making things happen was the large network of contacts TaSimpra has built throughout the years.

First of all, he managed to get a loan from Africa Jam which enabled him to purchase a computer from Silulo Ulutho Technologies. In that way he is able to offer more advanced services. Secondly, he was able to obtain sponsorship from Nikon to get a state-of-art camera. The recently launched Nikon D500 that TaSimpra will receive this week has a retail price of R 7000. I believe this speaks for itself!

For enhanced photography jobs you can phone TaSimpra on 0825828936.
