TableSpace: How did you start your business?

Beni: I started by meeting with like-minded individuals who wanted to start a company with me. We kept working our full-time jobs while hunting for clients and slowly made the move over time.

TableSpace: Have you encountered any struggles or navigated any challenges during your journey in entrepreneurship? If so, how did you overcome them?

Beni: Every company will encounter a tremendous amount of challenges. It's important to persevere, work together, and most importantly be financially stable enough to allow yourself to go through rough times. You will rarely succeed if you rely on your new business to be your only source of income.

TableSpace: Every business has a unique value proposition that sets them apart. What do you think yours is?

Beni: We are not a normal dev shop; we essentially become partners with the clients we work with. We help them design and architect their software, we help them raise funds, we help them market, and we help them meet with other clients and investors. However, that makes us very particular with our clients and we generally only have a few at once.

TableSpace: Being a business owner can be full of ups and downs. What do you do to unwind and relax?

Beni: I unwind by finishing what's on my plate. I will never be able to relax with deadlines looming and unfinished work. However, I understand that not everyone is like me and relaxes by working.

TableSpace: How can clients work with or support you? Tell us more about your offers.

Beni: The best way to support us is to support the software we build. We offer various tech-related services such as websites, design work, mobile applications, and random things people need help with. The only caveat is that it's not our main priority to do one-off projects, but we will always try to help.

TableSpace: Lastly, what would you say to entrepreneurs just starting out?

Beni: Seek out mentors and people you can speak to and learn from. There's nothing harder than starting out on this journey by yourself without support. Make things easy for yourself, and seek help.
