All you have to do is start
Young and driven
Tuyambeka Haipinge is a dedicated young man who has a passion and love for business most can only dream of. He is currently following in his mother’s footsteps.
“The person who inspired me to become a businessman is my mom,” he said.
He added that business is in the family as his brother is involved in real estate, just like him.
Haipinge owns a company called Buildvast Investments. It offers various services like construction, architectural services, electrical installations, house painting and more. He started his business in 2020 with the pandemic being a partial motivator.
“Things got very real for me when Covid-19 started and it is through this that I realised that another day is not promised and that I had to go after my dreams,” he said.
In addition to his construction company, Haipinge also owns a graphic design company called Rio Graphics and Designs. One of his main goals is to make sure that his customers receive the best quality services and that they receive an all-in-one package so they do not have to travel too far.
Passion is all you need
Born and raised in Windhoek, the 23-year-old entrepreneur attended several high schools, which he believes contributed to his adaptability and his overall knowledge and understanding of how to deal with clients from all walks of life.
Haipinge is a God-fearing man and believes it is because of God that he is where he is today. He added that despite it being an unpopular opinion, he does not have any role models apart from God.
The businessman noted that he believes one does not always need a degree to follow one's passions and dreams.
“Despite not attending any university, I have pursued my passion for entrepreneurship and consider myself a businessman,” he said. He added that it is best to not just study for the sake of studying, advising the youth to try their level best to tap into their inner passions and goals. He highlighted that there is no formula to life and that everyone has their own destiny.
The future
Business is the young entrepreneur's main focus at the moment and he said in his free time, he relentlessly pursues knowledge on how to build a good brand for himself and how to expand his business.
“I enjoy working out and engaging in business meetings as my hobbies, which I believe contribute to my personal growth,” he said.
A typical day for him includes a morning workout, online courses on becoming an effective entrepreneur and extensive research on his target clients.
“I plan to be married and have a family in the next 10 years. With hard work and dedication, I am on my way to achieving my goals,” Haipinge said when asked about his future plans. He further plans to expand his business and have branches all over the country. In addition, the entrepreneur said he has plans to employ as many people as he can to help eradicate poverty.
Finally, the young entrepreneur noted that age should not be a limiting factor when it comes to building a good brand and paving the way for yourself and future generations.
“I know many doubt me and are hesitant to hire me because of my age, it’s fine; I will let my work speak for itself,” Haipinge said.
