    Head: Strategic Business and Partner Development

    Friday thoughts: I'm deeply grateful to serve as Head of Strategic Business & Partnership Development at Equate Advisory and iDladla Investments, a role that offers me a privileged vantage point across a select (and growing) set of our portfolio companies. Every day, I witness the incredible visions of passionate founders and business leaders who are reshaping their industries. But what truly excites me is the magic that happens when these visions intersect. By having the unique opportunity to see the full landscape of our portfolio, I get to be a "connector of dots" – identifying synergies that might otherwise go unnoticed, and facilitating partnerships that amplify each company's potential. When we bring together complementary strengths, innovative ideas, and shared ambitions, we don't just add value – we multiply it. Every collaboration we foster becomes a catalyst for accelerated growth and mutual success. To all the visionary leaders I work with: thank you for trusting me (and our team!) to help weave your individual stories into a larger tapestry of collective achievement. Here's to creating more win-win opportunities and watching our ecosystem thrive through the power of partnership! #BusinessDevelopment #VentureCapital #Partnerships #Innovation #Leadership #GrowthStrategy #Collaboration

  • 🔄 Turning Big Opportunities into Growth: The Power of Purchase Order Funding Ever landed that dream contract only to face a cash flow nightmare? Here's a game-changing story that every small business owner needs to hear. 👇 Last month, one of our clients - a promising up and coming black-owned events planning company - landed an order from a government department that required them to come up with just over R500K in a very short space of time, in order to be able to deliver on the requirements outlined in the tender they’d secured. Exciting, right? But there was a catch... The challenge? They needed to pay their own suppliers upfront, but their working capital was tied up in existing operations. That's when Purchase Order Funding, secured via our PO funding focused business, iDladla Investments, stepped in. Here's how it transformed their situation: ✅ Immediate supplier payments ✅ On-time delivery to their new customer ✅ Protected cash flow ✅ Preserved existing business operations The result? Not only did they successfully fulfil the order, but they've since secured a forward pipeline of new contracts from the same customer. Their revenue has therefore grown 2X in just one quarter! 📈 The key takeaways: 1. Don't let cash flow constraints force you to turn down growth opportunities 2. PO funding bridges the gap between landing big orders and delivering them 3. Successful delivery builds trust, leading to repeat business 4. Your supplier relationships remain strong with timely payments Remember: Every large company was once a small business. The difference? Often it's about having the right financial tools at the right time. Are you sitting on potential orders because of working capital constraints? Let's talk about how PO funding could be your bridge to growth. #SmallBusiness #BusinessGrowth #SupplyChain #WorkingCapital #BusinessFinance #Entrepreneurship #MondayMotivation

    Ever wonder how smaller businesses fulfil large orders when they don't have the cash resources upfront? 🤔 Enter 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴. Think of it as a business lifeline. A company gets a big order but can't afford to buy the inventory to fulfil it. A PO funder steps in, pays the supplier directly, and the business can then deliver goods to their customer. Once they in turn have been paid by their client, the business repays the PO funder. Simple 👊 It's not a loan in the typical sense - it's more like having a wealthy partner, a "benevolent benefactor", who helps you complete deals that would otherwise be too big for your current cash flow 💰💰💰 This is what our business - iDladla Investments - does on the daily, and we have an ever growing number of customers (and repeat customers) who make use of our purchase order funding services ✅ If your business needs a capital injection ranging from R250k up to a max amount of R2 Million to enable you to conclude that exciting new deal you’ve just landed, get in touch with me directly and I’ll hook you up to the team who will assist you 💪 #SmallBusiness #BusinessFinance #WorkingCapital
