Afripreneurs in Action case study ( #2): A rural dentist with a dream and a team
__"Learning... to do!"
A few weeks ago I mentioned I was interested in hearing how some of you are now turning your interesting words here on the platform over the past seven years years into ACTION as entrepreneurs. Wow! I was so blessed to read some of your comments that I have decided I want to share some of them in a short mini-post series on "Afripreneurs in action".
Please remember: soon I will only be looking through Sasai Moments for these ACTION updates of yours. I read several great ones on FB though, that I hope I will soon see on Moments... this time, with photos! Many of you have now moved up into the and are really busy . Well done. Looking forward to reading more.

Sir Strive Masiyiwa,
I have learned a lot of things from here. Just to mention one.
It's from here that I followed a link you posted about free courses offered by Google digital garage. I picked Interest in DIGITAL MARKETING, and studied it to the end. This has put our facility on number one spot in Uganda under organic results search for DENTAL SERVICES, irrespective of the search query. If you don't believe me, try it yourself. This has increased traffic to our facility leading to a 200% in revenues from last September to this September (even in this Covid-19 situation). Isn't being in this platform awesome?
Please note that our hospital is located in a Rural area, remote without water or Electricity, but we've gotten around that too from your Gospel of . In fact it's that gospel that led to the construction of the facility. Now we have a vision to make it the biggest Dental Hospital in Africa!
To find out more about our Dental Hospital, just Google Marvels Dental Hospital, or check out our page below. https://www.facebook.com/MarvelsDentalHospital/

Learning... to do! Thank you to Dr Amukun for sharing his story. Although I don't know him or any of his patients, it looks from the Google reviews that my team checked out before I posted today that Dr Amukun is both an accomplished dentist and a dentalpreneur! I even saw a photo where he first started constructing the foundations of this Marvels Dental Hospital, then just a row of bricks in the soil...
__Homework: What did YOU learn from this Marvels Dental Hospital case study? Let's talk.
I am really looking forward to seeing photos of all of you and your ventures on Sasai Moments soon, including the Marvels Dental Hospital. Some of you might even have businesses or skills that qualify you to compete in Sasai’s competition (now extended to end of November). You don’t know if you don’t try. There is $10,000 for the grand prize winner!
