This is a special edition of the OF10podcast - a revisit in honor of Afrotech 2018 with guest and my homegirl Mandela SH Dixon who is not only passionate about - but super insightful and helpful for tech founders trying to raise funds, get traction, and build good businesses. As the dynamic founder of FounderGym, an online training center she developed to help underrepresented tech founders at scale, she gave the playbook to a standing room only audience at Afrotech this year. She was also the MC for the entire 2017 event, and she just shines bright. So, I hope you enjoy this interview. If you have a business, maybe you are your business, or maybe you just have a super-lit IG that more people should be following, you’ve got all these great things, but how do you get your content and your profile in front of a larger audience?
