offorbuike: What a nice topic, I have always believed in entrepreneurship from my university days. Am presently a corp member serving in a small multimedia company that is into the following
1) photo & video coverage.
2) photo & video editing.
3) model pics.
4) portrait pics.
5) large format printing.
5) canvassing, lamination & framing.
6) bill boards & posters.
7) dvd & cd mass production.
business center etc.
I would like to start-up my own company which will offer similar services coupled with graphic & web designing when I finish my service. Please, what is your advice vis-a-vis d pros & cons of this line of business, Thanks.

From what i can see, the business above needs you having a good knowledge of each (even if not all). you dont have to be a pro though.
Now learn the basic even if its the graphic design and web designing. then if you have jobs on the video editing and photography, you can out source it to a person who you believe is very good in that area.

Dont wait until you rent an office space before you should kick off. You could actually start it in your room.

You will be expected to meet most of your clients in their houses and offices and not the other way round.

3 main thing you need;
* Get the knowledge of the basic things you want to be handling yourself
* Find out the best place to get you prospective clients
* Dont procastinate......START NOW.

omosexy1: Your post was not to encourage people, but to tell them that they are stupid in their marriages, since they are not happy in it. Please read your post topic very well. Marriage is just like every other phase of life were you experience happiness, bitterness, anger, joy and blessing. I do not know why people pay too much lip service to marriage and always looking for a way out. Nothing in life comes easy, being rich doesn't come easy, also being happy doesn't come easy you have to work for it. You find people asking themselves if they have married the right person or their soulmate. When you express doubt you already give room for failure. Rather than question your own altitude, you blame your partner for your shortcomings. It is out of our selfish nature, we subscribe to divorce never wanting to make things work. Like I said previously, if your marriage is not working, blame yourself because you contributed to it too.

Okay sorry if the post was misunderstood.
But the intention of this thread is for people to actually share why they have decided to stick in their marriages rather than opting out.

ftmom: In Naija?
I suspect he's a bachelor

I also guess almost 90% of them should be bachelors.

musajohn80: I personally believe you must not wear suit to all interviews, but you must not also be casual. A good combination of neat long sleeve shirt and trouser will do for must interviews ( not sure of banks), this give's comfort and show a huge sense of confidence. It has always worked for me though, even when I got my job at entry level and I asked a friend to do this recently and he got the job.

Thanks FOR THIS.

Undabridge: First I'm into fashion designing and branding bizness i.e promotional items,events and clubs.About the customer satisfaction and management it's no problem cos our client has neva complained for once wit d little we have done thru d referals.So my problem is how to get contract/jobs professionally thru writing of business proposal or Letter of Introduction to companies,school,event planners and clubs that will state the things we do or d service we can render to them.All I need is a template and you'll be amazed wot I will make out of it.

Will try and what out a detailed proposal that will suit your need.

991: Thanks for the insight, indeed helpful for those of use who are married. however, the OP is either frustrated, non-marriageable, divorced or a phucking home-breaker.

You made sense in your previous post but just blew it with this comment of yours.

This thread was just to encourage those who think divorce is the only way out. At least when they read through to how people are trying to make marriages work they will also put in such work to see that theirs work as well.

Now i am neither a Dbanj nor Don Jazzy supporter.
i want to spit out the truth without sentiments like my name suggest.

*The beats (production)of this song is world class. Kanye, jazzy and other big stars will flow well on that beat.

*The intro was very usual. the regular predictable 'i am dbanj and skibanj lke my jamiacan friend's call me".

*The lyrics was more of a below average thing. More energy should have been put in creativity of good lyrics rather than a diss line.

* The song was so short, it actually sound like a 1minute JEDIJEDI medicine advert on a radio station.

* It has been fully confirmed that Don Jazzy doesnt only Produce for dbanj but he also WRITES songs for him.


MY VERDICT.

* J Sleek has prove a point and has added another feather to his cap has the production as definitely won him big production deals.
* Dbanj should please move on as other MARVIN crew have done. This people never even sing or talk like dbanj ever existed.
*It has been confirmed dbanj is not only Arrogant, but also petty and quarelsome.
*Yes! the song will be played on radio and in clubs reason being that the beat is world class and also nigerians will dance to even the most idiotic songs put on a beat.
*This song can NEVER fly outside the shores of Nigeria. foreigners will doubt if the oliver twist crooner actually sang such nonsense.

THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THIS SONG IS A TOTAL FAILURE. J SLEEK REALLY HELPED DBANJ'S ALREADY FADING MUSICAL CAREER



Dbanj is a good business man i will suggest he looks at going into the music business. take a toil from Dr Dre, Timberland and the rest. or if you insist on still singing, please get and pay a good writer to compose your songs as it is obvious you 9dbanj) cant compose a good and meaningful song.

The fact is some even just want to give their partner a surprise treat and as such sneak in to buy all the ingredients like you have rightly pointed out while others don't just feel comfortable for a lady who isnt their wife to cook for them.

James-dman:
My- O- my! So na this corner una relocate go? I don go that former location tire, the place they always dey under heavy lock n key. I come dey think say maybe u don run outta capital (due to ur numerous debtors and 419 asst. barman) come close the business.
Woww. . . It feels good to be here again. *luks round, walks over to Goldie's table* barman, bring me 4bottles of heineken mk i take start. Also give this chic 1 smirnoff ice.

Na that useless yeye caretaker oh!

omosexy1: My friend go and get married rather than making senseless post. Marriage is not an activity to seek happiness but to contribute happiness, not an institution to take but to give, not an institution to be selfish but to compromise, not an institution to blame but to agree that every mistake is a learning point, not an institution to hold grievance but to forgive and remember to err is human. And if you are not happy in your marriage do not blame only your partner but also yourself because it take 2 to be in a marriage.

How ironic.
You being the tutor to a senseless post.
Thanks for the lecture all the same.

fellis: Oh sorry.
I just couldn't resist pointing it out.

Its okay

they adviced to run.

Undabridge: I'm happy to be attached to this post but I will like to ask you guyz that are in the service bizness to please give me or teach me how to write a simple business proposal to a company.This is really lacking in my bizness and it's really affecting me cos there is a limit to the jobs word of mouth marketing can get one as an entreprenuer.

First what are you into?
different services have different mode of profiles.

Check out this link as i will be covering proposal writing.

AjanleKoko: Most meetings and engagements have a dress code prescribed. Plus, there are generally accepted conventions that dictate appropriate attire for different situations.

Interviews usually require formal dress, some business meetings require smart casual while some require formal dress (especially engagements that involve the public sector). Some evening events are referred to as 'black tie', which implies a very formal setting, while some require just smart casual. It differs based on the situation at hand.

However, if you are in a situation where you are not the host, you should respect the stipulated dress convention. In my company, we specify to interview candidates that they need to dress formally. Any deviation is obviously a minus.

Thanks for sharing.
so insightful.

peaceheartt: So many things o, u can't u/stand! Its jst not dt ez to leave

If you are married please can you give us one or two insights?

TY tayo: What comes to my mind is that the man's wife is bedridden or he just a stingy man

You cant be serious can you?
Not even the thoughts that she probably traveled?

*Running at the speed of light*

When you go tho the market and you see a young man of between 26-45 years of age pricing and buying tomatoes, meat, vegetables and other ingredients, what first comes to your mind? Do you wonder why he is the one in the market instead of a girlfriend or wife.

Please share your honest opinion.

Guys, how do you feel being the one pricing in the market? Do you feel embarrassed or indifferent?

Bisexual you mean? But its not in all cases.some people are just naturally cal with a deep sense of belonging and the fear of God.

Am not talking of dinner or cocktail settings.


From the thread title I said corporate meetings and interviews. So in the caselets assume the mode of dressing wasn't indicated.


YAW the popular wazobia fm presenter said when he went for the radio job intervie over a 100 people were all wearing suite and tie. He was the ONLY one that dressed casual (jeans, shirt and face cap) and yet he was was the only one that got the job. So in that case what can we say? i

Kunletiwo is the Kingong here, he is willing to lend a helping hand to as many people as possible. Keep it up bro. If 10 other people were like you in this thread, at least 20 extra people would have gotten a job soon.

God bless you all for your contributions.

When I started this thread I never new it will go this far to changing the lives of people positively.

I can assure you, most people are now more than willing to make it as an entrepreneur.

temmy6996: Wat else do u want?he avoids u when he's angry,he let's u knw what he detest,he's close 2 perfection.im readin dis wif my cousin & she wants u 2 hook her up wif d guy.u shld b contented wif wat God has given u.alayinitelorun

Believe me people don't know what they have until its all gone.


Send your cousin's biodata (age, profession, religion). Even if she doesn't have that particular guy, she will certainly meet someone better.

goke4all: This is a good trend, honestly all you need is the will and passion for success. Other things will start falling in place. To the list, egg retailing is a good business

Will drop more business ideas only when I see the seriousness in people willing to learn. Afterall we called it a class and I can't be talking to yourself.

spicy v: You SHOULD dress as the occasion demands not as. Your body demands else organised places (business meetings, interviews and the work place) would be a parade θf disorder. Imagine a business meeting with a lady whose usual sense θf "body calming" dressing is portrayed in half clad outfits or individuals who are more comfortable expressing their cultures through their dressing! A display θf chaos indeed!

We aren't talking of pwoplw dressing losely. Casually smart dressinif well combined I think can readily fit in a corporate setting.

What is that one thing that is still keeping you in that marriage of yours even though you aren't happy? Divorce is an option but have have decided to remain emotionally traumatized.

Is it because oy your kids, family pressure, societal criticism of what?

So many people remain in marriages they are physically, emotionally and psychologically traumatised.

sucezTP: Yeah, datz my dream n it wil surely come 2 reality 1 day.

Only few women who have the real idea of what marriage entails and is all about have this kind of mindset.

Shinatu: To people who say rich people marriages do not last and that a rich guy may end up being a wife beater.

I am just wondering, do marriages last longer (or are happier) in Ajegunle than in Ikoyi or do Ikoyi men beat their wifes more than those in Ajegunle?

I guess we need this statistics/info before we can make such declarations

So so on point.

[quote author=Thugnificent][/quote]...And how many men who can cook can boast of a few hundred of thousands?

Even some of the worlds richest men admite to still cooking for their family once a while.

Mynd_44: How can that be?

Some Psychological and. Emotional abuses are way worse that physical abuses.

Some women will prefer their husbands to beat them that his consistent and endless flirting around.

The Nigeria Judiciary system is currently waking up in regards to that effect.

Cases like Femi Kuti and Funke, and Gbenga Obasanjop and wife will hav e the man really compensating his wife.

You might have a point but the issue is shouldn't one wear what best calms their mind and body?
