I used to wake up early, open my shop, sit on that plastic chair, and just stare at customers passing like I was guarding the road. Sometimes I’d talk to myself like: "Maybe today is the day a rich customer gets lost and finds me..." But even boda guys avoided my kiosk like it was haunted. 😩
Then I joined MESH. And let me tell you—that app should be declared a national hustle resource. I started reading posts, commenting, and getting wisdom that made me feel like I attended a business degree in 5 minutes. One post literally saved me from quitting—shoutout to whoever said: “You don’t need capital, you need courage and consistency.” 🙌
Now I’ve rebranded, repackaged, and even my shop has a new smell (like success... and jiggies 😅). My customers are coming back, not just for my goods, but for advice. One even asked if I’ve done a TED Talk! 😂
