Hello. Greetings to one and all, this is Jack Lookman welcoming you to our series on Jack’s Curated Business Ideas. Today’s topic is:
Empowering Entrepreneurial Minds.
The Inspiration
I’m apparently a very creative person. Long ago, I attempted exploring and leveraging a similar platform as described in this presentation. My conclusion was that, my idea was accepted but the process was not favorable. I also probably needed to put down some money. After a few weeks, I became frustrated and had to walk away. There was a long list of things to do. Their processes were very user unfriendly and it may not be out of place to call them rogue traders.
Recently, I saw an advert on social media, apparently ticking some of the boxes. I thought to myself that this is a good business model, especially for some countries, where such is not popular, hence my creating this content.
Food for Thought
Some entrepreneurial minds end up in the graveyard along with their thoughts and ideas. These end up benefitting neither themselves nor society.
The Idea
The idea is about adding value to entrepreneurial ideas, empowering entrepreneurs, and converting raw ideas into flourishing businesses.
Aims
These include:
• Empowering entrepreneurs
• Optimising potentials
• Reducing unemployment
- Adding societal value
Benefits
Some of the benefits to be derived include:
• Empowering entrepreneurs
• Added societal value
• Increased tax potentials
• Encouragement for other entrepreneurs
• Wealth creation
• Job creation
• Reduced crime rates
• Encouraging entrepreneurship
Business Plan
Some thoughts to consider are:

Integrity
This is of great importance.
- Endeavor to compensate the entrepreneurs and stakeholders, fairly.
- Be transparent as much as necessary.
- Protect the interest of entrepreneurs and other stakeholders.
- Manage the intellectual rights.
- Don’t take over the intellectual rights because you are the administrator.

• Opportunities for more tax payments and collection
- Expanding the entrepreneurial landscape

• Integrity
- Accessing the business idea
Profit Sharing Formula
A fair formula needs to be agreed. The scope of work needs to be articulated and agreed. The interests of the entrepreneur and others, need to be protected. As a point of reference, please watch our 2 videos on Profit Sharing Formula App on YouTube; it talks about the concept of the profit-sharing formula in a scientific manner that is ethical and fair to all concerned parties.

Target audience
The target audience for this business model is mainly entrepreneurial minds who haven’t got the wherewithal to see their ideas to fruition. They may have great ideas, which could make a great difference; but no enabling environment to see them through to business success. Such people could be in different parts of the world and could be in different endeavours.
Value Chain

Conclusion
The whole idea is to have a business, or non governmental agency, whose role is to empower and inspire entrepreneurial minds who have great ideas.
The ideas shall be evaluated; and processes be put in place to ensure that the Entrepreneurs and society benefit from worthwhile ideas, especially during the lifetime of such Entrepreneurs.
