Denis Mukungu is the co/founder and CEO Eastern TraveLouge: a tours and travel firm that offers unrivaled transformation through travel and tour experiences across Uganda.
For any entrepreneur to succeed, there must be key attributes they possess and in this article, i precisely share attributes i have learnt in observing Denis’ work.
Dedication
This is what motivates the entrepreneur to work hard, 12 hours a day or more, even seven days a week, to get the endeavor off the ground. Denis shows an incredible art of dedication to his craft that you can never imagine.
Determination
This is the extreme strong desire to achieve success. It includes persistence and the ability to bounce back after rough times. It persuades the entrepreneur to make the 10th phone call, after nine yielded nothing. Of course we can’t assume things are always smooth for him, but the way he consistently puts his brand up is nothing but sheer determination.
Passion
Passion is what gets entrepreneurs started and keeps them there. It gives entrepreneurs the ability to convince others to believe in their vision and buy products. Denis, passion and his business sounds like a repetition. It’s just one word to him. It’s something you smell every time you speak his name.
Beliefs
Away from financial independence, what else makes an entrepreneur excited to do what they do? What if building your business made you feel emotionally satisfied, totally happy even when there was no money yet?
Owning a business that is to succeed is not a solo punishment of working your ass off for the sake of trying to squeeze out a living. It is about maximizing life, bettering your life and the lives of others – which later fattens your purse. We won’t add on or explain about this.
The Wow Moment!
As an entrepreneur , values say a lot about who you are, which in turn says a lot about the type of business you create. You must ensure absolute consistency between your values and your business. This is what makes the wow moment to attract customers. It works as the spine of a business. Denis seem to have mustered the art of building this wow moment.
