How to Sell, DJ Sbu opens up a hustlers school

How to Sell, DJ Sbu opens up a school to teach South African Hustlers as he recently launched the Hustlers academy partnering with 360 Financial Services Group.

With an aim to educate the young hustlers about financial literacy and develop their entrepreneurial skills and competency.

Speaking about this new project, Sbu had this to say;

“I know how to teach people so I thought why don’t we put together a curriculum that teaches people how to sell? Because once you can teach them how to sell, you are teaching them how to make money” he said “Once you teach them how to make money, you are helping the situation of joblessness. You are confronting joblessness and poverty head on.” 

Hustlers Academy targets mainly matriculates or unemployed graduates, who are hardworking so Sbu can “show them how to make money.”

“Our education system is irrelevant. I don’t think it’s 100% relevant” Sbu said when discussing his passion for education initiatives. “I want them to study but I must create a curriculum that helps them make money. That doesn't keep them there for years.” 

“If they go through that 18 month programme, it means they've gone through exams and do well in it. They will also learn leadership skills and how to train others and how to make money. So we take you from a hustler, who is making money, if you go through with us for 18 months, you can have your own office open for you.”

Sbu has started a pilot project, based in Houghton, where he has been training 24 young people for the past six weeks. 

He will be taking in another 20 candidates at the end of the month.
