Nice One Oga Best, how much can it one to make 500 tablets of laundry soap (B29) size?

Does one need a machine if he wants to be making as much as 200-500 bars of soap daily for commercial.

haconni:
Oga, if one produces 500 bars of laundry soap with 16k and sells lets say N40 each to retailers who sells N50 each to end users, can you call that lucrative?

For instance N40x500 (bar soaps) = N20,000. Now considering the energy and resources you put out in making the soap and the amount of time & stress it takes you to sell 500 bars of soap , do you think this business is worth doing commercially?

This may be reasons why some youth may see things like this in skills acquisition projects and look elsewhere? Don't you think so, sir?

CAPITAL
Still on capital, a lot of people have given up on their desired business simply because they lack the capital needed to start up.

Though there are many ways people raise capital for their new businesses, some through loan from bank, family, friends etc. But not everyone is so lucky or fortunate to have it that way.

Here, I will be talking from practical experience - using my self as an example. I think it's better to write what has worked for me than some un-practical and unrealistic approaches which I have seen many times.

Okay, let's assume you need like N400,000 capital (just for instance it can be more than that or less) for your business and all you have is like N5,000 -10,000 at hand, the best thing to do is start up something small with it. Yes I know what's running through your mind right now....lols. Just keep following, if it works for me, it'll work for anyone that follows my rules/principles.

There'll always be that business that can help you increase the money weekly, once you identify that small business, put in the money and keep it going for a while, as the money increases there'll always be another small business that will help you increase the money the more, reinvest the money into it and keep it growing.

The "small small" businesses might not really be what you want to do, it may even look odd to you but who cares? So long you have a goal, that's all that matters. Permit me here to announce this, God's grace by March I'm launching a new business and I hope to share pictures from the opening with us here. Call me jack of all trades yes, master of all; small small businesses giving birth to bigger ones.

Sometimes the smaller business you begin with can be hard to leave behind because to some people that's all you want to do as your main business and you already have them as your faithful customers but you know you have a bigger one ahead.

I know a lot of people will be amazed as usual with the launch of my new business. But the idea has been there, just waiting for the capital to bring it to life, and as big as it may look to some people, it's still one of the small small business to me, bigger one is yet to come.

Now, how to identify or find the ''small small'' lucrative business is another issue and that's what we'll be dealing with next. I shall be telling us how to identify a lucrative business and the sure ones that I know.

SUGGESTION ON SMALL BUSINESSES

Well, I'm going to be talking about the few businesses that I made research on and have come to discover are worth going into and then, I will move to my own personal business that helps me raise capital for other new businesses. Mind you, my research are based on first hand information, I mean from friends that have been into these businesses. More also, You can do a little finding on your own to be sure of their claims.

These businesses can be done either on a small scale or large scale. Whatever your capital, you should be able to start something.

GREEN FARMING:
1.Pumpkin (ugu) Farm

2.Okra

3.Importation business

4.Production of daily need items (my own personal business)

Pumkin and okra farm can be done any where, all you need is just a little space (land). My friend used an uncompleted building for his own; an uncompleted building with no roof. I was made to understand that an acre of land with investment of 65,000 naira on ugu can produce over 300,000 naira.

Okra; With a start up capital as low as N8,000 can earn you N20,000-N30,000 in 50 - 60 days of production.

Now, I have not done any of the above personally due to time and availability of land/space. Some people are lucky to have unused land, like the people I got this information from. It's not very common to have unused land in cities but if you happen to stay at the extreme like Agric/Ikorodu axis etc, you may be lucky to find one.

IMPORTATION: this one is also very interesting but I will advise you know the business very well before going into it.
For instance, someone invested N12,000 and made over 25,000 in less than two weeks. Here, you have to know what sells fast in your area as in, what people are interested in buying. Before putting in your hard earned money please, be sure you do your own home work.

PRODUCTION OF DAILY NEED ITEMS
This is my own area, I'm an authority in this line. This deals with the production of daily need product such as: body cream, hair cream, bar soaps, liquid soap, disinfectants/antiseptics, bleach etc.
Many people are yet to realise this area can make you quick money without much capital and risk. All you need is the basic knowledge on the production of these items.
Now, there are two ways of making serious money with the knowledge of the above.
Before I go further, don't forget our main aim is to raise a reasonable capital for other businesses through a "small one" with a small capital.

The good thing about this business is, you can start any with as low as N3,000-N5,000 and keep doubling your money, without much risk.

I'm going to be talking about my hot selling products and how you can start yours and other ways to make money with this idea later.
