blink182: magazine is a bad idea, the competition is too steep and magazine is a luxury item that people won't beg you to purchase, it is something only people with spare cash pay attention to and that is quite rare in Nigeria. Please be innovative and write a plan based on a product or service that people need. You can talk with me in private so we can fine tune your present plan, that is if you do not want to share your plan here which I strongly kick against.

sportfeva:
@J.tenna, it is true that your magazine business idea cannot fly but what can fly is a printing press business plan. If you have a printing press, you can print any magazine and any book at any time and with the printing press business idea, you can employ more people.

obiscolly: What criteria is used to select applicants through the second stage?

Obummalachy: the question "How much money do you plan to take out of the business personally"? means how much wil you take as salary from the business

Mftivi: Name five of your existing or expected top customers, How will you attract these customers to your point of sale? I need more explanation of this question. my customers are established business and services in Nigeria. do I write their names one by one? I hope someone understands my question

Tayeni: Someone on one other thread said to put 6 months as the break-even period. How laughable! Even to my naive ears 6months sound so unbelievable.

chizzybee: Thanks for ur prompt response. How do I then cover the fixed capital cost if I don't structure it in the production cost for a service business? Blink pls, I need to discuss with u. Text me ur no on 08124214764. Thanks a lot.

j.tenna:
@Blink how do i contact u. And pls wen is d closing date of d program?

fagin1982:


Check you Spam mails .The password should be there ...

newacca: Patiladwonder: You write there names one by one.

How will you be able mention names of customers u r yet to have,in a business u r yet to start (in d case of new business) ?
I dnt think they r expecting you to mention any names. Come to think of it, if I mention Tunde,Engr. Bobo, Prof.Alanta,so Youwin will find them to ask if they r truly my potential customers? No!
Youwin wnts to knw if u understand wat u r doing,if u knw d in & out of ur biz and who ur customers r really are(as in the section of d population)
I wish everyone of us all the best.

Patiladwonder:
Innovative idea with good and well written business plan will take to next stage of 6000 participants.


Between 0-30,000 maximum.


You write there names one by one.


What makes your business to break even is dependent on your sales per month. If you can sell very well, you could quickly break-even within the 6 months or even make profit self.

blink182: lol, my brother list them o. You have to prove you know your customers.

obiscolly:
Thanks for the reply. I meant what criteria is used to select the final beneficiaries from the 6000?

blink182: please make it to the 6000 first before you bother about that.

newacca:
There are 2 things involved. The question was set to either discover how smart the applicants are or to reduce the points of some applicants. If any of it,there 2 things involved,it either some of us are wrong and some of us are right,and there are two things involved,it's either you join the wrong party or the right party.
What diff does it make if one jst fabricate any name? And of what use d names r to Youwin?
Yes,they expect u to use common noun: like Teachers,Couples,Travellers,Schools and not proper noun like: Mr.Wayne,Mrs&Mr. Beckham,Tayo.

obiscolly:
You don't have to reply if you've not got an answer to my question bro. You should be doing something better with your time.

blink182: you must be sick upstairs, who do you think is your mate here?

obiscolly:
No time to exchange words with you. Let's just see how far you get, Smart Alec!

blink182: mugu, take your inferiority complex elsewhere. Win or no win this has been a big eye opener for me. Some of us are destined for greatness, grant or no grant.
