My Own Boss chief executive Munyaradzi Hwengwere said everything was now in place for the winner to walk away with the grand prize of US$25 000.
“We have invited other contestants aged 13 to 35 years, who think they can challenge the two (Odert and Godwin) and three have since been identified.
“Preparations are at an advanced stage and everything is now in place,” said Hwengwere.
Hwengwere added that the winner would be determined by how well the contestants execute their tasks.
“This competition is based on how one commits and executes his or her task. I must say that the youngsters have excelled in their tasks,” he said.
Odert and Godwin have proved their marketing skills by excellently executing their tasks.
Godwin has so far managed to sell 10 cars at Willowvale Mazda Motor Industries and he also secured a stand for the company at the recently held Sanganai/Hlanganani Travel and Tourism Expo.
Odert has also showed that the sky is the limit after she managed to sell 700 refrigerators for Capri.
The two finalists were, however, unfazed with the emergence of other contestants challenging them for honours.
Odert said she was actually excited that she was now competing with other people other than Godwin.
“It’s a bag of mixed feelings; the four months have been arduous and I want it to pass. I have always thrived on competition, in fact, I have won eight of nine competitions that I have competed in,” she said.
According to producers of the show, My Own Boss seeks to create opportunities and mould entrepreneurs not only for the corporate world but also emphasises on diversity of entrepreneurial avenues.
“My Own Boss realises that there are different types of entrepreneurs,” said Hwengwere.
