Ur father we already know is a bastard, and ur prostitute mother have never been blessed to tell who ur real father is. . . What's ur problem? Someone gave their opinion and u insult their family, what has ur family ever achieved? Just because u came across some borrowed phone with some little Mb, u feel u just come up to say thrash.

It's time to start your own business!

Entrepreneurship is about solving real problems that

people face in their lives. The more difficult the

problems you can solve, the greater the rewards you’ll get

from the market.


50 HOME BUSINESSES YOU CAN START FOR UNDER US$150.00


Do you want to be your own boss and work your own hours?

We have rounded up 50 businesses you can run from your own

home .

SMMEs (Small Medium and Micro Enterprises) contribute

around 40% of Nigeria gross domestic product, and employ

more than half of the private sector workforce. It is

estimated that as much as 80% of new jobs in world

economies are being created by SMMEs, making small

business a key player in the future growth of our country.

The idea of starting a home-based business is becoming

more of a trend in Nigeria. People want to be at home with

their families rather than waste precious time in traffic

and at the office. The idea of being your own boss, being

able to choose your own hours, being more flexible with

family and friends and having control of your own

financial life is becoming more and more inviting. With

the unreliability of future pension packages and

retirement annuities and the general uncertainty of our

future wealth, it is becoming more and more necessary to

start creating one's own nest eggs for the future.

Starting a business from home is a good way to save money

on overheads such as rent, utilities, insurance and more.

Having a business at home is tax deductible. Even first-

time entrepreneurs find it easier to start a business from

home, allowing to grow into a full-time venture. Start on

a part-time basis and develop the business into a full-

time homemade success.

You can be a pensioner, a teenager, a stay-at-home mom,

be disabled or just be a regular person with a passion to

achieve what you deserve.

We have outlined some of the basics of running a business

from your kitchen table, garage, attic and spare bedroom.

Use these basic tips to help you start your own business.

A. Do what you love
In choosing things, people tend to stick to what they

know and like, which also refers to starting your own

business. Find something you love and feel good about

doing, then figure out how to get paid for it. Liking what

you do and knowing how to do it properly will make for a

more prosperous business than if you don't, so make sure

you decide on the right business and choose something you

love and are familiar with. While nurturing this business

you will be spending plenty of time making it work.

B. Have the right attitude
Don't get caught up with the idea that you will earn

money quickly. Business success is created by hard work

and dedication. You will reap the rewards later, and they

will be worth the work and dedication. Remember this is

your business; nurture it like you would your children.

Patience and persistence are two key elements required.

C. Create a plan to generate business
Hand out flyers, send out bulk emails, and send out press

kits to local newspapers and corporate companies.

Investigate advertising and utilise the power of word-of-

mouth. Become active in local small business groups, get

out and sell yourself and have opening/introductory

specials, etc. These are some methods of how to become

known. Marketing and advertising is costly, but is a good

investment for the future of your business, although you

must plan properly before spending money on this.
Use your existing equipment - computer, printer, knitting

machine, sewing machine, etc.


1. Make and sell food products
Find your favourite recipe and sell it, such as biscuits,

vetkoek, koeksisters, muffins, cakes, jams, pickled

vegetables, etc. Sell them to Tuis Nywerheid shops, coffee

shops and even corporate offices. Start small with low

capital, charge to replace ingredients, and make profit to

build up reserves.

2. Computer Design services
If you already have a computer and a printer, design

labels and advertising pamphlets, type students' projects,

CVs, etc. With the correct programs you can design

letterheads and business cards.

3. Teach your craft
Are you good at a certain craft, and others keep telling

you they wish they could also learn to be as good as you?

Well, share this talent - start offering classes. You can

teach one-on-one or small classes. This can be from glass

painting, fabric painting, pottery, sketching, bead craft,

etc.

4. Music teacher
Do you already have piano and/or other musical

instruments? Teach from your own home, or visit students'

homes. Singing lessons are also in demand.

5. Sewing Entrepreneur
With your sewing machine and your creative talent, start

with sewing alterations. Design and make clothes for

people from normal wear to specialised evening wear to

fancy-dress costumes. With affordable, efficient,

professional work and creativity, your business will grow

quickly. Everyone needs alterations.

6. Photographer
If you are talented with photography and already have a

good camera you can hire yourself out to take wedding

pictures, 21st birthday parties, office functions. Once

your business starts to grow you can build a studio at

home and move into doing things like family portraits.
Take portrait photos of children at schools and crèches.

People love their pets almost as much as their children,

so how about taking portrait pictures of people's beloved

animals? Photograph people at local clubs, restaurants,

pubs, etc and charge. Don't forget to get permission from

establishments first.

7. Handyman/ Carpenter
You already have the basic tools and some know-how? It's

easy to market yourself to neighbours and friends, and

thereafter word-of-mouth will bring you further custom.

Clients usually pay for material upfront. Start off with

small jobs and as your confidence grows you can start

taking on larger projects. You will eventually specialise

in a particular area of business operation.

8. Mural painting
You are artistic and love to paint. Use this talent and

start painting murals. Start on neighbours' and friends'

walls. As your confidence grows and you develop an idea of

what to specialise in, go to crèches, family nurseries,

corporates for advertising commissions, restaurants,

schools, churches, etc.

9. Direct Selling
It is easy and there are so many products to sell

directly such as homewares (Tupperware), cosmetics (Avon,

Sh'Zen, Avroy Shlain, Annique), kids' products (Smile,

Acorn) and costume jewellery (Honey, etc). The start-up is

a fairly small investment, usually the acquisition of a

start-up kit from your local agent. Most companies supply

you with sufficient help and guidance, and thereafter it's

simply a matter of showing booklets to people wherever you

are, obtaining orders, having parties at your house, and

so on.

10. Party Entertainer
Utilise your love of children. Buy or get a costume made

for you, such as a clown outfit, magician suite, etc., and

entertain children at birthday parties, fundraisers or

children's events. Make balloon characters, juggle, clown

around and more. Rent yourself out to children's parties.

Make flyers and hand out to schools, churches, crèches,

etc.

11. Professional Organiser
This is best for articulate, neat people. Rent yourself

out to residential houses by organising and tidying up

garages, home offices, kitchens and other rooms. Become an

adviser on how to organise areas efficiently and clutter-

free. From this you can also branch out into organising

files, data, etc. Specialise in closet organising as well.

12. Portrait Sketching
If you are a fairly talented artist who is good at

portraits using various paint mediums, advertise yourself.

Sketch or paint portraits from your home. Family portraits

and children's portraits are popular.

13. Tutor
Offer to teach extra maths and other subjects to high

school learners and students. This can be done after

hours, giving you free time during the day or directly

after school.

14. Cartoonist
Have you gotten into trouble several times for doodling

cute cartoon characters or drawing the teacher in a funny

way? Think about designing cartoon strips or characters

for magazines, newspapers, private leaflets, restaurant

walls etc.

15. Corporate Catering
Make sandwiches, muffins, soup, etc. and sell to

corporate offices during lunch and tea times. Get

permission from businesses first before going to their

offices. Branch out into making and selling assorted

platters on order. Ask for 50% deposit to cover food

costs.

16. Second-hand Clothing dealer
Advertise around your neighbourhood and through

acquaintances for quality secondhand clothes. Pay per

packetful, fix the clothes up, add a more modern and

customised touch and resell them at your local flea market

as second-hand clothing.

17. Doll clothing designer/ toymaker
Are you good at sewing? Do you have several useless

pieces of scrap material you don't know what to do with?

Buy pieces of material offcuts cheaply, because you do not

need large pieces of fabric to make dolls and Barbie

clothes, and make and sell them for a quarter of the price

retail shops ask, plus you can make a significant profit.

Parents are always looking for an affordable way to keep

their little girls happy.

18. Calligraphy service/ special invitation marketing
Calligraphy is still used for special invitations,

corporate events and on certificates. There are software

forms for personal computers, but the real thing is always

preferred and more special. If you think you can or are

good at calligraphy, hire yourself out and do it by hand

for clients. If you have a knack for special writings this

is very useful.

19. Second hand book and magazines dealer
Do you love books, classic magazines and comics, and do

you know people who are pack rats? Find second-hand,

sought-after books in garage sales, second-hand shops;

flea markets, neighbours, auctions, family and friends,

etc. You can sell these books over the Internet or through

flyers. From the money you have made on existing books and

part of the profits, buy new stock to replenish your

stock.

20. Furniture Refurbishing
Are you good at revamping old furniture? Turn a boring

desk into a decoupage masterpiece, whitewash old dining-

room chairs to bring them back to life, repaint and revamp

an old chest of drawers, etc. Why must people buy brand

new expensive furniture when they have you to restore

their existing classic pieces? Ask for a deposit upfront

per project.

21. Growing Herbs
Do you have green fingers? Are you good at planting herbs

and vegetables for cooking? Everyone loves fresh herbs to

cook with. Try planting them in your home garden : basal,

rosemary, parsley, thyme etc. Sell to local fresh produce

markets or privately.

22. Management Consulting
This is one of the positions which always endures,

particularly in a slow economy. More and more companies

need consultants to help increase revenues and cut costs.

This job entails intellectual challenge, prestige,

opportunities to learn, and high levels of job

satisfaction.

23. Nurse
Personalised weight-loss consulting, teaching childbirth

classes, midwifery, lactation consultant, home healthcare,

nutrition supplements or vitamin sales. Insurance

companies and medical aids also require these skills for

the review of cases and claims assessments.

24. Website publisher
If you already have a computer, information retrieval and

the management of Internet information is a possibility.

Become a website publisher.

25. Marketing
Provide public relations services, do copywriting,

prepare marketing plans or plan events.

26. Administrative Assistant
Secretarial support for small businesses, desktop

publishing if you already have a computer, typing

services, preparation of CVs for college students.

27. Language Translator/ Teacher
If you are fluent in more than 2 languages, hire yourself

out. You can translate corporate letters, documents, books

and pamphlets targeted at certain foreign areas and

population groups, etc. Magazines and the publishing

industry hire freelance translators. Also, because of the

many different cultures and languages spoken in South

Africa, many people are looking to learn new cultures and

languages. Find out more about becoming certified.

28. Patternmaker
If you have been working in the patternmaking, clothing

design or fabric industry and want to branch out on your

own and work from home, design patterns for designers,

dressmakers and freelance for companies. Many part-time

and full-time designers need help creating patterns for

their creations. Make a name for yourself.

29. Mystery Shopper
Do you love shopping? Market yourself to retail

companies. Advise on service glitches, staff customer

service, security issues, etc. You can spend your days in

shopping centres "shopping", and then compile reports at

home for clients.

30. Freelance Writer
Tired of the rat race and constant deadline-driven

environment? Work for companies writing articles, columns,

press releases, etc.

31. Computer Consultant
If you are a whiz with computers, hire yourself out. Help

small businesses with computer problems, repairs, and

server problems, give advice on where to buy their

equipment and what to buy, etc.

continue? Teach dancing from your lounge or garage,

would be good at organising events, start freelancing as a

fundraiser. Market yourself to small companies, corporate

companies, schools, churches and organisations.

34. Image Consultant
Image consulting is a fast-growing industry as more

people are becoming more conscious about how they dress in

public and for functions. Target celebrities and

socialites.

35. Pet walking
If you are a pet lover, look after pets while owners are

on holiday or at work. Your clients will know that their

pets get proper care and individual attention. They take

their pets to your home where you look after them instead

of the impersonal pet shelters and kennels/catteries. Walk

dogs on the beach or around the area.

36. Proofreader/ Editor
Hire yourself out to publishing companies and small

businesses, and proofread their press releases, websites,

etc before finalisation. Spelling or grammar errors are

unprofessional, and companies need to take care that their

literature is perfect.

37. Professional Reviewer
Review CD's, books, websites, and programme packages,

etc., or review restaurants, shops, clubs, etc.

38. Reunion Organiser
School reunions are being held every year in every high

school. Become a professional Reunion Organiser for local

schools.

a new home or renting an apartment. Suggesting schools,

colleges, churches and spouse job placement counselling.

46. Display Artist

businesses, supervising their window and in-store

displays. Handle store special promotions and seasonal

requirements. Eventually hire out props, scenic backdrops

etc made by yourself to enhance the display.

47. Business Matchmaking Service or personal dating
Use your business contacts and skills to bring together

industry and commerce by getting them to utilise each

others' strong points, i.e. manufacturing, supplies,

research, subcontracting etc. The goal is to cut costs and

improve productivity and effect maximum results,

harnessing the client's knowledge and capabilities to

maximum benefit. Especially useful if you can assist with

BEE companies. Or matching couples.

If my gateman opens d gate 4 me when he is supposed 2, does that make him great? He is only fulfilling d terms of his contract. If I pay him his salary, am not doing him a favour.

Contesting the results that were obviously marred by gross irregularities albeit on both sides will still have been under the rule of law.
However, it would have led to very frayed nerves and post election violence with loss of human lives and property. A further dip in the already troubled economy and regional instability.

His ambition wasn't worth that.

If only Buhari had done the same some four years ago many lives would have been saved.
if buhari had done d same 4years ago, would that have qualified him 4a nobel peace prize? If buhari had conceded defeat would that have conferred on him d status of a hero? I don't think so

Just few days Nigerians are already missing this amiable man. Nigeria is presently on auto pilot with no visible sign of a real president in power. It's has been a week of deaths , Boko haram bombings, disappearance and reappearance of the Daura President, petrol tanker fires, queues at filling stations with petrol being sold above #120 per liter etc. Pls Gej, come back and rescue us in 2019 from this brainless ones. They lusted for power and you conceded and gave it to them and now they are confused on what to do with it. You know why? Coz they only know how to criticize and never how to rule or make things happen. Sorry for Nigeria for having a 'change' president that was voted in over 2 months ago but has not even been able to appoint ordinary chief of staff or secretary to the government of the federation while his counterpart in the UK voted much later made appointments within 48 hours and has started working on his electoral promises.

I know to people like you that come from the jungle & grew up with a fuucked up corrosive mentality. Doin the right thing like vacating a seat after losing an election is worthy of heroworshiping cuz you are morally bankrupt. Keep that mentality amongst you and your iilk.

Buhari was not a sitting president in the ruling party that has been in power for close to two decades and has the ability to thwart the elections in his favour but refused to interfere with the electoral commission and electoral process.

In other words GEJ could have done all that but chose not to.

Imagine how difficult it was for Buhari to concede defeat in his relatively less powerful position and the carnage it caused. Now picture if he was in power. That is the typical African leader for you and that is why GEJ stands out.

Like you pointed out conceding defeat is a rare act in Africa, so why disregard the act or his action, act like this should be promoted to encourage up coming leaders, the root cause of electoral violence in Nigeria stemmed from the fact that Buhari refused to accept defeat in the polls in all the elections contested before winning the 2015 election, Boko haram was empowered by those who would not accept defeat , if you analyse the Nigeria election and political climate from Ya'ardua to Gej you would understand the reason why GEJ conceding defeat is a big deal.

there's a lot of hate and emotional talk on NL wdoesn't give room 4 mature intellectual discourse. I don't believe in projecting hate or using insults 2 make a point. D election was a contest btw 2 sides. D rules were clear, winner takes all. just like in a football match, d side with d highest score wins. Conceding defeat isn't a made in heaven act, its just rare in africa. GEJ did d right thing. Does that make him great or a legend? I don't think so. If buhari defeats BH, does that make him great, no. He is just doing his job. If he makes d economy work, he is just doing his job. Nothing special

So people like Abdel Wade of Senegal and John Kuffor of Ghana that conceded defeat should be give the prize as well?

the Nobel price would have lost its relevance if every president that lost at all election is given a Nobel price/award

Like anyone in the world takes that African group seriously. I do not see GEJ getting anywhere near that award.

Buhari was not a sitting president in the ruling party that has been in power for close to two decades and has the ability to thwart the elections in his favour but refused to interfere with the electoral commission and electoral process.

In other words GEJ could have done all that but chose not to.

Imagine how difficult it was for Buhari to concede defeat in his relatively less powerful position and the carnage it caused. Now picture if he was in power. That is the typical African leader for you and that is why GEJ stands out.
In what other way did you want Jonathan to thwart the electoral process other than the one displayed by his minister and member of his party, Orubebe? When will you realize that Jonathan could not rig the election having been rejected by Nigerians?

God bless the Presiden.
