4. Making Money Online with a Collective Online Community
How Marnus Broodryk created a platform that’s solving the biggest issues faced by SMEs
When serial entrepreneur and self-made millionaire Marnus Broodryk launched SME Africa, a platform helping established entrepreneurs with various services and tools, it was a call for SME recognition. He did this with a small business awareness drive called #WeAreSME.
Leveraging a Collective Online Community to Make Money Online:
SME Africa is described as the entrepreneur’s go-to place ‘for everything you need in your business’. For R569.25 a month you get unlimited access to tools that would normally cost you thousands monthly. The platform provides users with affordable business solutions that enable growth.
How this entrepreneur used Collective Online Community to Make Money Online:
“#WeAreSME is a movement setting out to inspire 10 000 SMEs to unite and identify themselves on one single platform, thereby telling South Africa who they are and what they do,” explains Marnus, CEO of SME Africa.
Lessons learnt in establishing an income with a Collective Online Community Online:
“We all say we need to support small businesses – but we need to do more. With the #WeAreSME campaign we want business owners to stand together and to show South Africa the faces and the logos behind this ‘SME’ collective we all like to use so often.” says Marnus,
