I am a family man, running my own business since 2013. I started doing business when I was in school and always have had a "side hustle," even when I was in full-time employment.
Now, I am a full-time business owner, and I am looking to grow and expand my business.
I do customs clearing and forwarding as my main business, and I currently also
run a driving school on the side.
The driving school is now well-established and we're getting more and more clients.
We're trying to do more advertising so we can be out there for more clients to know
about us. It has been a challenge, but it all has been great to the last bit.
I plan to purchase a motorbike for the driving school. This would be used to train students who are interested in learning how to drive a motorbike and to obtain a rider's licence.
This is a sector that currently is unexplored in our town, as no one else is offering this service.
Risk and Revenue Information: The driving school has not been affected by any lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, the pandemic has not had a major effect on businesses in my country. Yes, this is everywhere in the world, but businesses are operating here in the same way that they used to.
