Hi Afropreneurs,
Last weekend was quite interesting for us, first we hosted Audu Maikori at our Monthly Startup Grind Lagos Meetup and I joined my first book reading club (I noticed I don’t read anymore).
Audu Maikori is not just a lawyer, he is an entrepreneur that changed the terrain of the music industry in Nigeria.
Unfortunately, we can’t give you all the full text/audio of our chat with him but we can share some snippets that will no doubt be beneficial to you.
Here are some noteworthy points he made in our discussion:
- Where there’s a problem, there’s a money making possibility/venture
- With every failure you have an opportunity to be better
- You succeed because of what you believe in despite what people say. There is always a reason you can fail
- People want to start from the top floor, rather than from the foundation. Scale step by step
- Dress for the occasion, do not be cliche in the way you look.
- Failures are blessings in disguise, sometimes we rush to do things that we are not ready for
See some tweets from the event below:

Always remember that your failure do not determine how far you will go.
Be Awesome!!
