1. iBranch Recruiters ($61.7K/year)

Tshepiso Leinane, the founder of iBranch Recruiters, came up with the idea for his business during his time in school. After participating in a regional ICT fair and winning awards for graphics design and programming, Tshepiso developed a passion for computer applications. Inspired by a call from BlackBerry to develop apps for their community, Tshepiso decided to create a mobile app that would help curb unemployment in Botswana. He conducted research and identified the need for offline capabilities and artificial intelligence to match job-seekers with employers. Tshepiso dropped out of school to pursue his idea, joined the Botswana Innovation Hub, and spent years coding and refining his platform. Through pre-launch events and pilot testing, iBranch Recruiters has gained over 90,000 users, helped 1,600 users get employed, and generated over $15,000 in sales. Despite challenges, Tshepiso's dedication to creating a user-centric app and building a strong product helped him overcome setbacks and achieve success.
