In his TikTok video, Lebogang provided the five steps he followed to fill his bank account with rands.

Step 1: Make the investment

He noted that one cannot start a business without buying what is needed.

Step 2: Personal touch

The entrepreneur advised that people give their business page a personal touch, making it clear for people to understand who they are on social media platforms.

"If you want people to become vulnerable with you (for example, giving you money), you need people to trust you. You need to make them see the value within you."

Step 3: Product knowledge

The perfume seller told app users:

"You need to know what you're selling to effectively communicate the products' benefits to your client."

Step 5: Have credibility

Lastly, Lebogang explains that one should have a platform for their business, starting with a Google profile.

"Have your business registered on Google. That way, it's easier for people to evaluate your business."
