Her store has grown from strength to strength, which focuses solely of the art of waxing and smooth skin.

WAXIT have created a place where men and women alike can go to wax it expertly and discreetly, free from the intrusions that come with visiting full service salons.

As a business woman Thaledi believes that success comes from hard work and dedication and like most entrepreneurs, she believe that success stems from a deep belief in one’s own abilities to reach their full potential.

Youth Village asked Natasha to share her top 5 business tips for youthful entrepreneurs looking to find their way into the corporate world.

BUSINESS TIP #1: Find daily inspiration and a job that fulfils your passions.

Partner with like-minded business owners who inspire you as well as support and motivate you along the way. This way, they can help inspire and hold you accountable to your business goals through valuable advice and practices.

BUSINESS TIP #2: Find your 3 must-haves for the ‘perfect business recipe’

These are very important when building a business. Firstly, good leadership as it is the driving force behind any business. Secondly, the right vision is imperative because it sets the course of the business. Thirdly, a quality product and service that can sell and deliver successful results.

BUSINESS TIP #3: Build a strong team.

The best business advice I have ever received is that no one succeeds in business alone. Thus, it is important to build a great team to help increase growth and continuously impact performance. In addition, to heed the best business advice from successful entrepreneurs who’ve already made it in the same industry.

BUSINESS TIP #4: Support each others efforts

The strengths and dynamics of your team can directly affect business outcomes. This means that when your team members value each other’s strengths, they effectively relate to one another, avoid potential conflicts, boost group cohesion and create positive dialogue.  

BUSINESS TIP #5: Every business faces hardships

Yes, being an entrepreneur can be challenging. But despite the hardships and despair — there is great purpose behind what you’re doing. Therefore, my advice is to keep in mind that the true strength of business success lays in the willingness to endure during the hard times because in the end, there is great benefit and success, and it makes the entire journey worthwhile! Keeping a positive mindset and developing great endurance during challenges, together with living a healthy and balanced lifestyle has definitely helped me keep up with all the stresses of daily life effectively.

“Being a part of the WAXIT franchise’s growth and success is a great feeling of accomplishment because I believe in the brand’s increasing potential, longevity and success. It is a brand that continues to spark my interest and manages to keep me motivated and optimistic about the future of the waxing industry,” she ends off.

At WAXIT, they make sure that before and after your wax, your skin is cleansed, waxed, nourished and soothed. Their WAXITologists® are always available, professional and discreet. Plus, WAXIT offers additional treatments that aren’t available at “multi-functional” salons.
