 Yes, and we are back with some more of one in the morning as promised earlier. My name is Barry Moses or it's very more on social media. So yes, this is our first segment of the day and I know you guys are familiar with the saying, we all work without play, make jacks, make jack a dull boy. So we have guys who turn the play part into a business, have Mr. Builder and Mr. DJ, Dabo Jr., who are part of Iron Events and they're here to share the story with us on Entrepreneurship Tuesday, Karibunasar. Thank you. All right. So come right in at number four, Pali, Mr. Builder and DJ, Dabo Jr., you can introduce yourself with all the AKAs that you have. Okay. My name is Builder Ligala, the CEO of Iron Events. I'm an event planner, a promoter, an emcee, I act as well, and I'm a dad. All right. You're a dad? Yeah. Wow, congratulations. Thank you. How old is the baby? Two years by April. Two years by April? Yeah. Congratulations. Thank you. I shout out to all the responsible black dancers. Thank you so much. All right. Okay. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. We will be doing that too. Yes. Okay. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. for like three years in Ngong or Trangong on Azadjua, the testifyable. Okay, and then my aim was not to be a barber for my entire life. I wanted to do something different. Yes, I really wanted to get into the media and the bee and the tertinine stuff, you see. Yeah, so I saved and by last year around April, I did my first event. Yes, around Kaurangonga, yeah. All right, so last year you did your first event and it was a success from my assumption because you're still doing best thing. Yes, yes, yes. You're still doing best thing. Right, so how do you link up with Mr. DJ Dabu Juni? Dabu Juni is a very hard-working guy. I met Dabu Juni at some TV in GBS TV. Actually, he has a show, he's a host every Friday. And then we just got to like truly blend Sanna and then I talked to him and I was like, Juni, why don't we do this together? Yes, because in every show we'll automatically need a DJ for the entertainment part. I can do everything alone, you see. And then Juni came through and we started doing shows. Actually, the point I was forgetting, for me to start the R&D events and start doing shows, my wife has been very supportive. You know, I was very fearful of starting because I was like, where am I going to get all this money? But I came to learn that in everything you do, you just start and then everything will follow. All right. So, a couple of things about Mr. DJ. When you are getting into this business, you can get to know each event, you can get to know a certain kind of event and you can say, I want to entertain you guys, I'll get into any kind of event. It started in a very funny way because, you know, actually I can say I was a model, I'm a model. In 2017-2018, I won the Missing African-American University and then after that, I thought I could not continue being a model forever because age was also catching up. Age is also catching up. And I was like... And I was like... Yeah, I was like, what can I do to give platform for other models? There are so many models in Kenya, they don't have platforms. And another thing, what could I also do to give back to the society? So, your passion for modeling led you to creating these events. Yes, to create them. That is one of the reasons. Another reason was obviously to chase this man. Yes, you know, you have to pay bills in Nairobi. Right. Yes, we'll get into the business aspect of it. DJ Dabo... Junior. Dabo Junior. You are part of Iron Events now. And as a DJ, before you met him, before Iron Events, were you organizing events on your own? I was organizing events on my own. I was not going to hang out with him, but I was going to hang out with him because I was so busy. He was the one who was supposed to hang out with me. He was the one who was supposed to hang out with me. So, I was going to hang out with him, but he was always there, he was always there to help me. He would share ideas, he would tell me to go and get a job. He would go to the gym and stuff. Back in the days, I was going to hang out with him, I don't know if it's good or bad, but sometimes it's bad. So you must be thinking that you need teams to do this. In any way, how do you manage it? As I said earlier, junior and senior, there are a lot of things you need for an event to be successful. But when you're one, you can only manage when you're one person, when you have money. This guy is calling you. The mics are not ready. We don't have the sound. With the carpet, we need to do the decoration for the venue. So all that, you can't do it alone. So that's why I also decided, my wife and I decided to get other people so that these guys could come and support and work together as a team so that we get the successful part of the show. So Swalini, when new guys are doing events, do you get clients coming to you and saying, I want to have this kind of event? Can you guys assist me in the logistics? How many events do you want to formalize an idea to the execution? Okay, when we started, it was kind of freaky because no one was ready to listen to your idea. If you talk to anyone for your support or anything, no one was listening to the idea. But currently, I can say, we are moving so well because as the promoting part of the show, currently we are working with the Tangello launch at the Ngongrod Prestige. So we have enough support, and the owner of the launch has really supported us this far. We are promoting his launch currently. Actually, that's the biggest launch in Nairobi so far. You need to be there. I need to be there. I like that you are plugging in the business. You have the best services. Alright, so this is one of the clients that you have right now. Do you get clients coming to you and saying, the most common is maybe a wedding or a birthday party? Do you have people coming to you and saying, I want to have this event, but I don't have the know-how of organizing? Can you guys organize it for me at a fee? Is that something that you guys are doing? Yes, people have been trying to call us, they've been reaching us, but as for now we can say, when you are doing an event, you might be an event planner, but you don't have all the necessities to plan a show. So the idea itself, or the advising part, when you are guiding a client, it's very important. Before they get themselves into anything, they have to consult you. So you are like a business consultant on the other side. So by that you ensure that the client's show is successful, you bring everything on the table, everything you provide for the client, and then the event is going to be successful. All right. Experience. A word of the day is experience. Experience is an excellent way to say it, but you get me. From experience, you are different when you are doing business. Yes. There are many different ways to say it, because when you grow up, when you grow up, when you have a job, when you have a job, when you have a job, when you have a job, when you have a job. All right. When it comes to the music now, music. Now. All right. What kind of event is it? What kind of music is it? Yes. What kind of event? You know, I think it's a very different kind of event. There are many different kinds of events, people want to try to do it. They have some room in the south and they are planning to make some clients and so on. They want to have fun. They want to try and go. So, we need to have a better environment. So, we have to keep on doing our activities and it depends on the client and their work. All right. The music of the music of the music of the music is that of the music of the music. Sure. Can you tell us about Kenyan music, in Afanya V.P., when it comes to the music of the music that you have handled so far? It's a music that I have handled so far. And there are people who know me as Iqbali. But I am not sure if I can say that I am a Burudan or a Zipenda singer. I am not sure if I can say that I am a Burudan or a Zipenda singer. I am so fresh, so fresh. I have a friend who is from Kapa Lek and he is a pioneer in the field. When he joined the team, I worked with him. So, you are the guy who gained the most from Kenyan music? Yes, he is the guy that gained the most from Kenyan music. Alright, return on investment. How would you describe the return on investment? What is the VP in the events industry? In the events industry, there are challenges. Some of the money is gone. Some of the money is gone. Some of the money is gone. Some of the money is gone. Some of the money is gone. Some of the money is gone. One person is busy, the other is busy. I'm a bit confused here. Why am I being so busy? I don't know the main reason but I know why there are so many people coming. You need to get motivated by such. When I did that, I was like, can I stop doing this? What are some of the lessons you learn from this experience, why did you make losses and what did you learn in the process? Okay, what I learnt, I came to learn that for you to host or do a successful show about losses and more profit, you need to do a proper marketing. Proper marketing is number one. Yes, you need to have something called timing. Timing is very important. I'm going to talk about your hosting a show. You're working on a monthly project. Yes, you need to be someone who's not rich. But I'm going to show you how to do a successful show. I'm going to show you at home, I'm going to take my stuff and I'm going to give you money from my own house. It's very important to be strategic It's very important to be detailed in your marketing All right, I will fill you, Whitefair4channel, Twitter, Whitefair4 Under School channel on Instagram And Whitefair4 on Facebook Hashtag is one in the morning Hashtag is entrepreneurship Tuesday So, I am selling tickets Almost some of the commoners are Quaget Right now, we see guys selling tickets online So, when you compare as a businessman Which one would you prefer in 2020? Okay, for me, it depends on which type of show you are hosting There are a lot of shows that come from Farnia Tarekumi Tare Saba We have a show at Changelo launch on Saturday This coming Saturday We need to be there actually We are going to be talking about that It's a Gangetown night This show, the entrance is two beers at the gate You see such kind of shows like where the Kenyan music is taking us We are moving towards Gangetown Sana There is music on the street There is music on the street It's kind of tricky Was there a gangetown? Was there a gang that was there? So, in the show, we have a group of people Who are called O.D Most of the guys who are called O.D Some of them open the gate And take a ticket to Tartu I think that is kind of a class event It's not for our level You see? A ticket event is a class sauna So, what they do, they want to come But if you do it like two beers at the gate It's like, ah, I can afford this You get it After all, it's the same person Yes, it's the same person Okay, but In events like, you are hosting a big artist Someone like Chris Brown You see? After all, it's the same person You don't expect to cut out the tickets at the gate So, it's good Both of them are still okay Both of them are still okay Depending on the type of event you are hosting Alright, that's a very good answer right there I appreciate that That's a very good way to look at it I've never looked at it that way Talking about the internet still Social media or CDRVP Come on, events, planners And entertainers Which do you think are the main activities of the festival? Ah, that's what I said I recently suggested to a guest Someone who is ready Whenever they want He can do the program He can post to the show We have a lot to do We need to have more And more expensive He's always showing out the show He can do the show You see, I want to do the show I gave him some suggestions I said to him that post Because he didn't know when to come All right. Social media. What are the events in Instagram? How many events do you have on Facebook? How many events do you have on WhatsApp? Which one works for you guys? For me, I see Instagram and WhatsApp as been working for me. Actually, I have come to Facebook in a long time, because I have been on Facebook since I was 2 years old. So, I have been on it since I was 18. So, I come to Facebook to advertise events and ask which kind of events. I post on Facebook and make a talk show. I post on Facebook and Facebook. I am 282. I am 282. So, WhatsApp groups are in a long time. Another big social media platform is Instagram. Instagram is what I like the most. Right now, we are hosting Sailors on 7th. I asked myself, why are you doing IG? Actually, what do you do on Instagram? What kind of Instagram posts do you post on IG? You can find them on Instagram. I am not good at doing Instagram. I have also kept the Instagram accounts, and I follow the Instagram accounts in Bahati. No one likes Bahati, but I follow them on Instagram. So, what do you do on Instagram? You can see that there are some contracts that you can find. All right. Contracts. Contracts that you can find in the market. Yes. I signed contracts. I'm not a salesman, I'm a salesman. Contracts that I can find. I'm not a salesman, I'm a salesman. I'm not a salesman, I'm a salesman. I'm not a salesman, I'm a salesman. All right. So, let's sign contracts. When it comes to the contracts, who drafts the contracts for you as Aaron Entertainment first? Okay. As I told you, we started with my family. So, we do it with mama. And everything we have our contracts, you can see that it's already there. Templates are there. So, when you get to a client, it becomes very easy. You can send them an email. So, I print too. After that, I can send them to the client. They can see that I'm a salesman. And I can sign them. All right. But when it comes to contracts, I want to tell you, there were two things I've done at home. Last year, there was a time when I was training, I was told that I was going to sign a contract. But then I told them that I had signed a contract. Some people in Nairobi had told me that I had signed a contract. The contract was not even a sign. So, I went to school, I was told that I was going to sign a contract with them, and they were going to sign a contract. They were going to market show, and I said, So, this is the challenge. I told them that I was going to sign a contract with them, and when it's not even a sign, I was going to sign a contract. Then, I told them that they are going to sign a contract with them, and they were going to sign a contract with me, and they were going to market your contract. Maintain your organization. And then you could sign a contract with DJ. You showed it happened, but you can't disclose to your people how you are doing that and how you are doing it. It's not easy. But your image is very important too. The image is important too. Because they are going to market show now. And they saw the council show just like that. Yes. Because people are really waiting. Yes. So, this is the challenge. I'm a fan of yours. I'm a fan of yours. Just do it and go home. For the sake of the name of the brand. Yes, for the sake of the name. So sometimes you have to lose money for the sake of the brand. But that happened last year because we were still learning the game. But right now there's no one who can help us. Alright. What are some of the things you look at in a contract? What are some of the most important things in a contract? I don't know a lot. If someone was to hire you for this contract, if someone signed a contract, and you're not even an artist, if you're an artist, you're not going to claim that you're a fan of the brand. Alright? You're not going to say that you're a fan of the brand, but you're an artist, and that you're a launch fan. But if you're an artist, you'll be able to finish your registered contract. You'll be able to produce your idea for another contract. So it's very important to deal with the person when it comes to a contract. Atacaman establishment, Jina is very important. The name on the ID. It should be the name on the ID. And get a copy of that ID if possible. So it's very important in Nairobi to follow your contracts and do the letter. What is another thing you look at in a contract? Another important thing. Another important thing is the signature. So it's a sign that you're going to pay me. There's a person who is a driver, he's a manager at Jina, he's a driver, he's a TV host, he's a cook, he's acting, and he's also a casting director. He's like, if you're going to pay me, sign and give me the contract, and I'm the one to pay you. If you're going to pay me, I'm going to pay you. I'm going to pay you. If you go there to inquire, you will find out that you are a rich man, you will find out that you are a rich man. What do you do? You have to check on the amount first, then you put your signature there. So, whenever you sign, you will find out that you are a rich man. So, it's like signing a blank cheque? Yes. Do you work here? Because you need the money and you are desperate. That's right. It's not growing well. Please show me the handles. You have to go to the camera, which is number 4. And then you have to check the windows. Yes. I work here at Nafsi, Builder's under school in Kenya. And then I get a job there as an R&D under school. And then don't forget, because right now we are promoting Trangelo and we are working there. All of our entertainment shows we are hosting there. Follow every show, Trangelo under school launch. Facebook, Instagram everywhere. Facebook, Instagram, that's it. Mr. DJ. And you are DJ Double Junior. DJ Double Junior. I'm a junior here, but I'm not a senior here. I'm a J-U-N-I-A. I'm a junior here. Junior, next to you. So you're going to Facebook and Instagram and you're going to find out who you are. DJ Double Junior. Junior with the J-U-N-I-A. Santini Sana. Alright, so another thing that people don't know about you. You've been in the acting industry. You've been in the modeling industry before you became CEO and founder. Alright, so did you quit acting? No, I'm an actor. You're still an actor? Even right now, I can't say that I'm an actor. So I'm always ready. I'm always ready. I'm always looking forward. It's only that we divert to do other things because we don't want to talk about acting. But acting is a passion. We don't want to talk about money. So you can't call me to do some show. You're acting behind the door. So I called you to see me. And then it was hectic. The reason why I'm kind of slow on acting is because I watch and I audition. Some people say, this is for the casting directors for the industry. Not in a bad way. But if you're casting, come on and do the show. You can do the show. Yeah, look at what that person can deliver. He'll find out I'm a skier like I should go slow because you audition for 20 times on different shows. And you audition for more out of 20. In all these auditions, you have to spend your money to get there. You spend your time auditioning. But at the end of the day, the shows come in slowly. All right, but I'm told now we have Netflix. We have YouTube. We have everything that actors can post their personal content. If you're an actor, I'm told you can act in the house now and post someone. Yeah, it's very possible. You have so many comedians, so many actors when you want to make it through social media. And what you want to do, and what you want to do, and what you want to do. Yes, that is a very good platform. But for me, it's a slow one. It's a slow one. It takes time. It takes time to make it. If you're on YouTube, if you're on a show, you can watch the show. And you can watch the show. You can watch. You can watch the show. So you're releasing your content each and every day for other people. And you can take time. Yes, it takes a lot of time. You can watch the show, and you can watch the show. All right, so it takes time. And if you want it, you need to invest your time. You need to be ready to invest your time. All right, let's get a taste of your acting days such as to sample, build, and acquire actors. And then we'll be back with some more of this world right here. And remember we have a question on Facebook. If you're in a position to invest right now, which field would you like to invest in? And why? Which field would you like to invest in? And why we'll be sampling your feedback towards the end of the show. So head straight to our Facebook for that. Until then, Acha to check in Mr. Builder in action. All right. All right. So Ghez is telling me what the story is about. That particular piece right there. I've seen a number of faces that are familiar. Yes. How are you going to join our VIP? Uh, come here. Yeah, you can come here. Yeah, come here. I went for an audition. I just got a text from my phone on a certain morning and I was like, go to such place. I'm in a certain place for an audition. I didn't know which equipment it was. Me and the two auditions just like that. When I got there and I was like, I met Lavenda and the other guy. I don't remember the name well. Yeah, that crew. The crew I inspect. Yes, and I auditioned and I just went home. So like after two to three days and I got a call and I was like, tomorrow you'll be in town in the morning. You're going to pick four for the set ready. That's how you got this one. I was experienced like acting with these guys we see on TV from time to time. Yes. Experience in the VIP. That time it was the last year, August. I mean, 2018 August. Then I went to the set. I was on TV and on the bus. I was on the bus and then I was kind of okay. Yes. But you just gather courage because those people are just humans like us. Yeah. I felt so good. You see? The first film was signed up to a competition in Flanie, organized by Nairobi Women's Rep. The Nairobi Women's Rep is a show I saw on Instagram. I saw the poster and I was like, there's a guy, there's an advert we did for Betika. There's a guy we met there called JB, he's a very competent person. So I was on set when he was auditioning in Beliangu and I was like, I'm going to be nominated or nominated for five. When I was auditioning, I didn't have a chance to attend because when I was auditioning, I thought it was good for my eyes. So I got this little tension I thought I need to get my number. It can be of very good help to me. Then I got my number before I auditioned and then I just went like that. When I came across this poster, Madame Pasares on social media, media I actually called him and I told him JB there's something here and I don't know but we can do it why don't you guys come over at my place tomorrow and then I called the other guy who's next to me there is a camera person but now that I have a camera but I don't have an iPhone I don't know what to say I have to pick it up and then I can pick it up and then we met at 10 a.m. in the morning we did the clip we did the editing and then the hardest part of these is because we were doing quality education in public schools you can't be allowed to get in there to kind of certain school just next to the greaty there it was the last episode to King here because you want to expose us then anything wrong so the guy followed me he was following me the camera holding it here the phone and then so I just went there and then we told him and we took the clip but but is there something you guys are recording because you've been seeing you the cameras and we were like no because it was a zero budget film yeah and you guys were signing up for a competition yes alright so how did you perform at the competition we only got one slot for the ticket so the the camera guy because it was the one who sent the clip his name was there so we didn't make it to the top and it was a very good experience for us because on a joy in such competition we got nominated I mean on the top 34 out of almost 150 150 yes we were very lucky and then we tried voting and stuff maybe to literally want to vote but look what's right from what I've heard from you today it seems you're a person that is a go get yeah you don't take no for an answer and you like to win why does this spirit come from and what word of advice can you give the viewers watching you right now for me for the viewers and especially the young men and women before even come to whatever I want to tell them I want to say this if you have something you want to do do it don't wait for anyone to lift your hands you know I hear of very many youths talk about I mean like nowadays I get so many calls even from ushago and stuff you see so for me I'm so much I got a lot of motivations from my family that is my son and my wife they really push me I'm like each and every time I see my son for me I want my son to get on TV as as early as two years not I'm here I don't know when you're thinking about thinking by force I just came from nowhere and I said he said that you continue sleeping and enjoy your dream or you wake up and chase your dream that is two things either you continue sleeping to enjoy the dream and enjoy the dream or wake up and chase your dream mr. Davos junior Pally you're the one who's going to promote the event for us this coming that is coming up since your mr. presented mr.
