Akintayo said, “Most business owners get weary within three years space of running their enterprise and is one of the reasons most start-ups and Small and mid-size enterprises do not rise above a particular level, because they have not been able to carve a niche for themselves. “A majority of these entrepreneurs want to do almost everything that can bring in fast income for them. The solution is upgrading of skills, proper system, branding and mentoring, among other panacea.”Also, the managing director of GText Global Homes Limited, Mr Flemmming Rontveld, said, “Budding entrepreneurs need to network with other great minds and be offered mentorship that offer capacity to them to move from their present position to where they want to be.
