Today’s Social Breakfast was another engaging and practical session, bringing together entrepreneurs, business owners and professionals from across South Africa to learn, connect and grow. The morning began with networking and introductions, creating opportunities for collaboration and new business relationships. Sunil Sewpersadh shared valuable insights on social media, AI, user-generated content and the importance of giving value before asking for business. Attendees were encouraged to support one another online, build meaningful connections and leverage social platforms to grow their visibility and influence.
The highlight of the session was Haupt Feldtmann’s presentation on “Speak With Certain Confidence.” Haupt unpacked practical communication techniques using his memorable Three P’s: Plan It, Punch It and Pace It, along with the powerful Triple-A framework: Answer, Add, Answer Again. His message resonated strongly with attendees as he explained that effective communication is not about how much you say, but what people remember. Through practical examples, stories and simple frameworks, he demonstrated how business owners can become more memorable, more impactful and more confident when presenting themselves and their businesses.
The session concluded with an interactive networking round where attendees introduced themselves, shared their businesses and explored opportunities for collaboration. Feedback from the group was overwhelmingly positive, with many participants highlighting how Haupt’s presentation simplified public speaking and communication in a way that could be applied immediately. It was a powerful reminder that success in business is often less about having the perfect product and more about being able to communicate your value clearly, confidently and memorably.
