Met byna geen kapitaal nie, maar \u2019n visie en \u2019n droom wat albei se harte warm laat klop, is Ren\u00e9 Jardine en Lizette Cleophas vasbeslote om nie net \u2019n sukses van hul nuwe sakeonderneming te maak nie, maar ook die Weskus, waarvoor hulle albei lief is, as \u2019n geleent\u00adheids\u00adbestemming te bemark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ren\u00e9 het in Januarie vanjaar haar werk in die korporatiewe w\u00eareld vaarwel geroep. Terwyl sy by die huis gesit het, het sy begin dink oor waar haar vaardighede, passie en vermo\u00ebns l\u00ea, maar ook watter dienste in die Weskus benodig word. S\u00f3 het die idee vir \u2019n bruid-ekspo ontstaan. Met die konsep daar moes sy die sakeplan verfyn en \u2019n naam uitdink vir die nuwe sakeonderneming. Kort voor lank is RayV Events gebore \u2013 \u2019n woordspeling tussen haar ontslape pa Raymond Vincent se naam en die woord \u201crave\u201d in Engels, want, s\u00ea sy, \u201cmense moet rave<\/i> oor die dienste wat ons bied\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dit is op hierdie tydstip dat Ren\u00e9 vir Lizette genader het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lizette, wat \u2019n milit\u00eare agtergrond sowel as korporatief het en net soos Ren\u00e9 die druk en eise van korporatief verstaan, was die afgelope vyf jaar \u2019n huisvrou en het op \u2019n plek in haar lewe gekom waar die kinders nou groot is en sy reg was vir \u2019n nuwe uitdaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die twee vroue is deur hul mans aan mekaar bekend gestel en het dadelik gekliek. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDaar was net van die begin af \u2019n konneksie en verstandhouding. Ons is ook albei Ramme (Aries<\/i>); ons praat net dieselfde taal,\u201d vertel Ren\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ren\u00e9 het haar idee vir \u2019n bruid-ekspo met Lizette gedeel en sy het dadelik in die idee ingekoop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSy bring \u2019n magdom ervaring en kennis, en ek is absoluut mal oor haar werksetiek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk bly s\u00ea dis hoekom ek [haar] aan die begin genader het, want ek besef dat dit so \u2019n groot taak is. Ek kan dit moontlik alleen doen, maar laat ek realisties wees en s\u00ea ek wil nie, maar wie anders kry ek aan boord, en sy het by my opgekom. Ek was so verlig toe sy ingestem het.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Drie maande later is Lizette \u2019n sakevennoot en mede-direkteur van RayV Events en is die twee hard aan die beplan aan die Weskus-bruid-ekspo, wat Saterdag 24 en Sondag 25 Februarie 2024 by die Athena-saal by Club Mykonos in Langebaan plaasvind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die bruid-ekspo is gemik op elke aspek van \u2019n troue waaraan voornemende bruidspare moontlik kan dink \u2013 die rok, grimering, \u2019n prokureur vir die huweliksvoorwaardekontrak, die troukoek, spysenier, fotograaf, videograaf, skryfbehoeftes en skoene, vertel Lizette, \u201cen natuurlik jou lingerie<\/i> vir die wittebrood\u201d, voeg Ren\u00e9 tong-in-die-kies by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maar, verseker Lizette, bruidegomme sal nie uitgesluit word nie en daarom sal die ekspo hulle ook die geleentheid bied om saam te kom en te kyk waarvan hulle hou. \u201cHulle kan dus so betrokke wees by die troure\u00eblings as wat hulle wil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit is hier waar ons di\u00e9 tipe uitstallers nou smeek om asseblief op te teken, veral as jy in die Weskus is. As jy nie jou besigheid hier ten toon gaan stel nie, gaan jy iets groots mis. Die bruide gaan instroom. Weskus het destination venues<\/i>. Daarom daag ons al die venues uit \u2013 kom ons wys die mense daar buite wat is hier in die Weskus. Hier is juwele van plekke. Kom ons trek saam; kom ons probeer nie dinge op ons eie doen nie,\u201d moedig Lizette aan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEnigiets wat met \u2019n troue te doen het \u2013 bring jul goed en kom. Ons vra ook borge om betrokke te raak,\u201d nooi die dinamiese duo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hulle het plek vir 50 uitstallers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Ren\u00e9 is die doelwit juis om diensverskaffers en verbruikers in een plek bymekaar te bring. \u201cWeskussers moet altyd Kaapstad toe gaan, maar hoekom? Ons het al die hulpbronne hier. Dit is \u2019n wonderlike netwerk- en bemarkingsgeleentheid; \u2019n geleentheid vir sakeondernemings om net weer bande met hul kli\u00ebnte te bou.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hoewel hulle tans hul hande vol het met die beplanning van die bruid-ekspo, gryp hulle tussendeur ook enige geleentheid aan om hul sakeonderneming te laat groei en op di\u00e9 manier voete na die Weskus te lok. Dit sluit onder meer ook \u2019n 1st Sundays Bubbly & Jazz op 1 Oktober by die Langebaan Boutique Hotel and Spa in, om \u2013 soos hulle dit spottenderwys stel \u2013 \u201cdie kostes van ons bankrekening te dek\u201d terwyl hulle hul groter visie tot vervulling bring. Hulle re\u00ebl ook korporatiewe byeenkomste, soos jaareindes, spanbou en vele meer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oor die pad vorentoe is hulle optimisties: \u201cGeleenthede slaan ons letterlik in die gesig,\u201d vertel hulle opgewonde, en hoewel hulle nog nie te veel oor hul ander planne wil verklap nie, is hulle dit eens dat dit alles in ooreenstemming is met hul objektief om plaaslik te bemark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Met hul mans wat bankvas agter hulle staan, hul aansteeklike energie en die ondersteuning wat hulle mekaar bied, is hulle positief oor die toekoms, s\u00ea Lizette. .<\/span> Die Weskus-bruid-ekspo vind op 24 en 25 Februarie 2024 by Club Mykonos plaas.
