Rachel’s blog post regarding Moziah Bridges-Mo’s bowtie business really captured my attention. I would like to emphasize my post on how Moziah portrayed the perfect example of an entrepreneur. A 9 year-old Moziah unlike me when I was 9, understood the concept of pains and gains to a problem that he himself acknowledges, which is that there were not real bowties for kids. Moziah did just the one thing that would end the problem, sell bowties for kids. Not only that, 9-year old Moziah is also a SOCIAL entrepreneur since he donates 100% of his profit for charity.

Based on the traits of a successful entrepreneur on yourstory.com, Moziah conforms to be business focused, proven by how he had developed his business t0 be worth more than $200,000 by now. He is obviously confident, looking at how he swept away people’s hearts when he was on SharkTank. He is a creative thinker, by proposing the idea of having real bowties for kids instead of clip-ons. He is determined, especially how he is using the business in order to raise money to support the children in Memphis. He is a lot more than just your average kid, and is an inspiration to any of us who aspires to be an entrepreneur.
