6 Things NITEL Should Do To Get Nigerians To Buy Its SIM Cards Like Hot Cakes! by Nobody: 8:28pm On Apr 09, 2016
By Prince Charles Offokaja

Nigerians can now get your NITEL SIM card, and start making calls with the network. This is because NITEL has finally rolled out its GSM services, after years of expectations from Nigerian GSM users.

But NITEL faces stiff competition from other networks that have entrenched themselves over the years. Having said that, there are service vacuums they can fill and thereby have a jumping start at winning the hearts and money of Nigerians.

Without further delay, here are 6 tactics NITEL should apply to win the hearts of Nigerians:

1. Don’t Allow Unsolicited/SPAM Messages: One thing NITEL should not do is allow unsolicited spam text messages to be sent to its users. That is one thing that annoys Nigerian GSM users a lot and they can port from a network just because of that.

2. Provide Cheap & Fast Data: Nigerians would surely embrace NITEL if it provides cheap fast data services that enables Nigerians to enjoy their favourite sites like Facebook, Nairaland, Igbodefender and others. But if NITEL data services are poor or too expensive…

3. Provide Cheaper Calls: Look at the call prices your competitors are offering per second, and then charge much cheaper than that. The word would quickly spread and Nigerians will flock to your service.

4. Say No To Poor Network Service Delivery: There is a certain network whose workers have boasted that they always meet their financial target for the year by September every year, and after that they begin to slack in providing good network services – but they don’t mind. NITEL, even if you meet your financial target by March every year, don’t use that as an excuse to slack. Remember: Nigerians are not fools.

Your thread was really making sense, but ruined it with that stupid link.

5. Help Nigerians (CSR): Imitate those GSM services that have charitable foundations and robust CSR services. In other words, always be seen to give back. Nigerians will love you and flock to you.

6. Provide Excellent Customer Service: Yes, NITEL, you are still government owned, but that doesn’t give you the excuse not to provide great customer service. Monitor your customer service people, and once anyone of them is caught being rude to customers, the person should immediately be sent to a back-room department where they wont be able to speak to your customers and spoil your market.

In sane business climes, you could have made a few millions by giving the company this clues. But here, no.
Some 4years ago, I packaged some great ideas and gave to the CEO of struggling newspaper in lagos. I told them that this is just the highlights of the solutions and that I will collect 300k which I won't like to receive all upfront but when my ideas start producing results.
He was happy and said will get to me. The next month I saw them putting to work some of those summary!!
I wasn't surprised when they still folded up less than 9 months later. Something that would have been avoided.
