Help With Business Idea Please by woma123: 2:30pm On Sep 22, 2012 |
Hi everyone, I would appreciate some help with developing my ideas for a business.I live in the UK at the moment and am planning to move back to Nigeria shortly. I do not plan to work for a company any longer, and have narrowed down my options to the following: 1. Corporate event planning - I have a lot of experience in this field abroad but not in Nigeria. Does anyone know if companies mainly plan events in house or if they outsource to planners like myself? Would I have to rely on personal connections to market my services? 2. Poultry farming - Would be grateful if someone could give an approximate figure of how much is required to start this business and further sources of information on poultry farming. I am not going to quote a figure as my budget just yet, but I would like some general ideas. Thanks! |

I do not think extending into Wedding planning is a bad idea.If you have got sufficient cash,I'll also suggest you get a piece of land in a good location for events such as weddings.You do not need to build any concrete structure on the piece of land.All you need is to build a tent with tarpauline.You will also need plastic chairs,decorations and other fittings.Should you require a business plan,visit www.businesstoolsng.com for expert help.Our mission is to provide you with a manual to help you manage your business successfully.Cheers |

Why don't you start an internet business, precisely information marketing. Sell your expertise in the form of a solution to some one Else's problem. For instance, there are millions of people out there who want to go into poultry business but don't know how. You can package an information product and present to such people in exchange for money. There is no limit to what you can do with information marketing. The whole world is your market place. Consider internet business. |

Hi woma123. My piece: 1. Since you have a lot of experience in corporate event planning - that is your comfort zone, stay there. Dont go into poultry business out of what else can I do, or I dont have a choice; it could lead to frustration. You will be switching from people to animals - the question is which do you prefer to work with? I leave that to you. 3. Connections for getting corporate event account seems tasking to you. If it is so, I would suggest you take your corporate event knowledge to another height. Why not service other corporate event planners who are ahead of you in the race in Nigeria? Servicing means providing consultancy and/or training services. Sub-niches to address can include: corporate event billing. Use of technology in corporate planning. Lastest trends and vogue in corporate event planning. Understanding your client needs for an event. Etiquettes for service personnel during corporate events. Designs for event places. Finance for the corporate event planner. Honestly, I can go on and on - but the most important is that the land is green for you. Finally, before you pack your bag and baggage home, test the market by scheduling a training program on your sub-niche topic here in Nigeria. Take a full or half paper advert in a national daily paper; invite a notable name in corporate event planning as a fellow resource person - it gives crediblity to the program and helps you launch your career. Flaunt the fact you are coming and bringing your expertise from UK. Let a graphic designer/ad copy writer help you bring out the training message. Let's get to hear the outcome. I hope it helps. Wish you success. 1 Like |

The good thing is that internet businesses requires little of your time on a daily basis, and if done rightly, can pay you huge commission at the end of every month for life. |

You can package your ideas in the form of an information product and sell it on the internet, better still, you can build a website and teach people the act of corporate planning. You will be amazed at the number of people that need your expertise. |
