ORT Jet creates supportive network for business owners

Author, lecturer, and facilitator David Zidel told an ORT Jet networking session on 21 May that businesses should uplift one another, saying, “Even if someone can help you or your business a little way; a little way is further than where you were.”

Zidel told business owners and entrepreneurs at the breakfast session, which emphasised embracing the new, that a business needs three key things. “First, you need your bread and butter. This is an income that helps you to survive the month. Second, your gem. This is something that makes you ten times the income of your bread and butter. Third, your rainmaker. As the name states, it pours with income. This endeavour could make 100 times your gem or bread and butter.”

The COVID-19 pandemic makes it hard for community members to support each other, but ORT Jet’s breakfast created a wonderfully warm atmosphere for face-to-face networking, while adhering to the protocols in place.

The tenacious individuals present are refocusing their strengths to adapt themselves and their businesses, with the assistance from ORT Jet every step of the way.
