please coach i will like to venture in to restaurant/ eatery business
pleas i need your advice on it
like the likely amount it will cost me and the material
needed and how profitable is the business,
i want to build my own house and the location is student environment
will 2m to 3million be enough

See your location will determine maybe you will make it or not. But for sure restaurant or eatery business is okay.
If you can tell me your location, the state you are,
So please don't ask question that is unanswerable for me. Explain yourself in details.

Nafizzey:
great thread coach. please I need online exportation details/ now that importation business is not encouraging due to the fall of the naira against the dollar.. and how much can one start such business with?

Check the trend from the beginning, I have explain everything about exportation

To day I will be discussing online paid survey, so just follow me:
Many people have done survey for free before and many have done it and it does not profit them at all. But this one that am talking about will profit you if you do it in a right way. The requirement of this survey are
1. A laptop, a modem for browsing, a US paypal account, a master card to withdraw your money, and IP changer on your browser, and at least ready to spend 1hr on your laptop.
This is how the survey works: when you register to a survey, they will direct you to your email address. Then you can confirm it there, so I advice you to open a new email for the survey. Later they will be inviting you to survey if it is available. All this does not require you any penny. And in survey know wrong or correct answer.
To register a US paypal: you need a valid I'd card either voter's card, national I'd card, international I'd card. Then submit your email for the link

If you don't have any I'd card use the card of another person that you know.

Someone ask question on my whatsapp as follows:
I got your number on nairaland
Pls i want to go into business
What I have in mind is phone accessories, etc
So I want to be leaving d house , hence want to do business
A friend suggested phone accessories business
My aunty said a provision store
I'm in a dilemma on what business to do
I hope u put me through, thanks
Then he was asked
what idea do you have and what passion do you have
And he answered
I have passion for web designing , ICT , internet , gadgets like phones too
Then the advice is as follows:-
Start. Internet business, since you have passion for web design, ICT, internet, gadgets. Start work with fiverr, freelancer, elance. Register with them and start having client to work with. And you will be collecting your earning with ease. And if you have any issue let me know. Because if you pursue the job you don't love and have passion for, then you will definitely loose it.
He then later reply that
I don't really have d skill set, I just know basic html.
And he was still asked
But you said that is what you have passion for
He later reply those
Yes its a passion, Is just like having passion to act a movie, but you are not it at the moment
Then he was answer
I will advice you to build work in what you have passion for so that you can last in it.
But if you insist, then let me ask you some few questions
And are you ready to finance your business?
Well, honestly , the money isn't complete
As I plan to rent a shop space
And I reply him as follows:
Okay, in your town many shops that are selling phone materials and provisions
But if you can avoid up to 300k for phones materials, then you will just become a distributors to retailers shop in your town
Or since you have little knowledge in ICT, I would have advice you to start a CBT centre for examination registration.

What about printing of recharge cards business and also Bulk SMS business. Please kindly talk about how to start it too.

Thanks my humble business coach.

I have talk about recharge card business.
But I will talk about bulk SMS business.
Bulk SMS is a business you can start with just 6k. That is if you want to have a website in your name. But without that you can register under a sms website and start the business. This you can start from 1k.
This business does not need too much training, the only training you need is how to get customer, how to submit number for the site, how to make payment.
With this you can start the business.
To get customers, you can contact people that want to do wedding ceremony, those who want to do burial ceremony, naming ceremony, birthday celebration, churches, mosque, banks, organisation and so on. These are the people that can patronise your business.
When you register a website you can be having sms per unit at the rate of 60kobo. But when you register under sms website you can be purchasing sms from 1naira and above depending on the quantity of unit you want to buy.
And if you want to register under any website test run their portal by using their free unit offer to you. This is necessary for you to know how effective their services.
You can make 3naira per sms you sent. Which more profitable than petroleum business.

Plz can you xplain further concerning the PMS investment.

Please tell me what you really need to know or what you don't understand about it

Some are asking about PMS; you can start PMS as a dealer or as an agent. And is a business you can start from 50k and above. Petroleum business does not need huge amount as some people think it is. You make money from each litre of pump coming out from any filling station. Nigeria government said a litre should be sold at the rate of 86naira per liter for the dealer marketers and 86.5naira for the independent marketers. So you can make money from the independent marketers, by using the dealers to do the work. You don't need a filling station to start and even you don't need a tankers. All what you need is to liars with the distributors or dealer who are the real agent. All what you need will be explain under the business coach on nairaland. Keep watching and keep asking. We will make it together. All the seminar is hear don't waste your money on any business seminar.

easyboy212:
Goodmornning sir, I am isaac a batch A corp member which will b passing out soon, I have an interest in ladies things and I need your advice on how to go into weavon business as a sole distributor, though I have small amount of money to start with...how do I get to suceed in this? What pattern or skills do I need to be a success in it? Also the minimum amount to start with? Have barely 50k.......planning to start it from my school. Thanks

Women materials is a good business, especially around the school premises. If you know where to get it at cheaper rate, while don't you go for it. And if you don't have any, then go online to start importing it.
You said as a distributor, you will need at least 500k, but as a retailer 50k is okay.
What you need to be a success in it is just to meet the salon people and ask for what type of weavon sell most and even you can start learning as a stylist for some month to know what people are using most. So that you market will be the best when you start marketing. Hope I have answer you.

hi coach.

how to get N 10M to start a small factory ?


thanks

Firstly, have you started it before? The factory is all about what?
If you have a good proposal and a good plan, then write a letter with your factory proposal to bank of industry. They are in good position to assist you with the money or the materials needed for the factory to be set up.
And apart from that philanthropist can also render the assistance, also the politician can also help. But I don't trust the politician.

shamecurls:
Thanks for your Reply....

But re re u kidding me U mean on a 900 bags trailer load, the profit is just #45,00? Thats like investing 1.25 million and getting just 45k as profit



#Amazing

Anyways...Thanks

Really Appreciate

The benefit of selling cement is because is a fast growing business in the country. It is just like a recharge card business that have little profit, but it sell fast. But you can work to any distributor agent near you and ask him or her how is the margin of the profit.

dbonez:
If i get that right... "There is many business you can start without or with little capital at hand." can u give out such business? But before that i must compliment your good work here. you're indeed a business guru

You can start Importation business by using OPM which you don't have to use your money at all.
You can also start exportation business with the same method which you have enough profit.
online business is okay also. Like website designing, article writer, graphic design, survey online and so on.
You can also start coach business that is if you have passion for it.
These and many more are the business you can start with or without capital.

@ op
Thanks for this great informative thread...
If I may bother you with these questions, though you have listed some paper works needed to kick off,but I will like you to help us elucidate more on those documents in the following manners,:where each of the docs can be obtained,cost of getting each of them ,where to get the documents ,what are needed papers to be presented at each locations for one to be given each of the docs,cost of each of the docs.
My reason of asking this,is I will like you to take us as newbie who has no idea on what to do.though still have some other questions ,but will be glad if the aforementioned questions are treated first.
Thanks and and we appreciate your effort.

I will explain how and where to get the papers mentioned after one and other.
The papers you need for the exportation business are as follows:-
(1) CAC certificate which you can obtain from Corporate Affairs Commission of your state.
To obtain this certificate you will do as follows
pay 500naira for verification of your company name; submit two names and make sure that your name is not common or else you will pay another money if the name is not accepted.
Then after 2 weeks, go back to the office to verify maybe your name is not registered. If it is registered then pay 10k for the registration. And you will pay 250naira for file jacket. and that is all. After 2-5 working days your CAC certificate will be ready.
That one is for enterprises.
But for Unlimited, consult a lawyer to the preparation of your company article and then you will pay either 60-75k precisely for the certificate to be out. And can contact me if you need the preparation.

BilginMuh:
Dear Sir, thank you for your kind answer. This was my question; because USD/Turkish Lira is upside down too. This question is coming from my worries for future and my need to grow a strategy.
Best Regards..
Customer in Nigeria tells that there is no USD in banks. But they need to add more over their sales price; and it gets the sales difficultier.

There are USD in Nigeria banks, but the issue is that; they do not release it like before again. There are many cards that can be used, which solve the problem of buying or sales. But it is easier for exporter than importer. USD is risen in Nigeria market and CBN also has make a way for it to fall, so in a matter of time Naira will gain its value back. It they need it urgent then people are available to assist them, what they will do is that they will pay into their account in Nigeria and what they need will be done where ever they want.
But don't worry is about to be over.

Majestee:
I am very very confused here,because you said if one must go into business,it should be for passion.now the only thing i have passion for is computer repair and general IT support.someone told me its no longer in vogue that i should go for either programming or software development.since i have no passion for the suggested ones,how can i turn the one i have passion for into a lucrative business in Abuja?good job you are doing on nairaland

don't be deceive with what people are saying, who told you that repairing does not have value again and don't you know that it is a must for everyone to have computer at home. And now tell me how will people have computer that will not be faulty. So your work is available everywhere. And those people that told you to still develop more skills are right, they are saying that, so that you can be okay in every area. But since you said you don't have any passion for other works no problem. You can still continue on what you said you passion for.
But I advice you develop courage in another things so that you can still build passion for it. And don't kill the idea in you.
To create awareness, print card and distribute it with where you, so that when they have computer or laptop that needs repair they can call on you.

Good coach, God will reward you for what you are doing for us...

please, I am a speaker and I am working on a book version of a topic I have developed which has to do with business / entrepreneurship. at a point, I also thought of recording it as mp3 because that is cheap. but my fear is, can someone really make money with books/mp3 sales in Nigeria as it is done in other big nation?
please your candid advise is needed because it is the only venture I am looking at this year and you will be helping a brother to get out of confusion.

you can make it big. even if Nigeria people did not buy it international people will come for it.
so don't dispute your goals. you must make it big this year. go on with the production, market it in amazon, eBay, Nigeria papers and forum like this. and even where seminars are being host. any area you have challenges let me know and I will surely help you out.

I want to start a viewing center business, what are the requirement, challenges and profitability to look at for?

Thanks in advance.

And also what I can do in ICT using my knowledge.

Starting a view center business is good, and it does not need too much cost or work.
You will definitely make your daily income on it, especially in football area. Because location is not a bearer, so far football fan is in the place where you are. But I will advice you to join soft drinks to it, because some of the people watching will still come for it.
The requirement is not much. What you need are as follows:-
At least 2 32inches TV sets
A decoder like DSTV, CONSAT, Strong TV and so on
A full subscription
Place to contain at least 50people at a time
A fridge for your soft drink
A standby generator.
Chairs of at least 50people.
The challenge you can face is when people did not come or when there is rain and signal lost. Also electricity problem. Because the more you see people the more you see your subscription money, electricity bill and center bill.

On your knowledge, you didn't tell me the knowledge you have in ICT for me to advice you on it. Be specific so that I can answer you in time.

Please I will like you to throw more light on the exportation of Agricultural products like bitter kola, kolanuts, ginger, etc... What are the necessary steps to take in starting up. After getting a buyer, which shipping company will be better... Also how do I get my money from my buyer... I have heard of credit note, what does it mean and how do I go about it. Thank you very much.. Will be waiting for your response.

Many countries do not have privilege of what this country process. And we have many. And also most of the agricultural produce are good for man kinds, many of them are useful for food, drinks, drugs.
Cola is good and it is used for drugs and some other things.
Cocoa is good for beverages and some other beauty product.
These and many more are the produces we have in Nigeria and they can be transported out of Nigeria with high profit.
When in startingup exportation business, you will need the following items;
(1) CAC registration certificate
(2) The produce you want to deal with
(3) Vehicle to transport your produce
(4) Shipping papers
(5) Custom duties payer
(6) Tax clearance
(7) Bank verification
( Evidence of business transportation.
(9) Buyer information
With all this your business is good to go.
The best shipping to use is sea shipping, which is the most cheapest shipping.
Credit note is only issue in the bank for the advantage of the seller. What the note is to help you carryout transaction with your buyer, so that there will not be fraud either on you by the buyer or by the seller. What the bank will do for is that they will request for account information from you, then they will follow the goods up till the final destination, and they will request for the payment from the buyer before the goods is deliver to him or her.
So credit note put the seller at no risk. But the bank have charge on the work perform.
Hope your question as been answer properly.

cicc2010:
thank you for the post.
my question is dis, how can on export yam, what are the procedure , what and what are the challenges and logistics. pls i need reply
thanks once again

To export yam is easy, all what you have to do is to get the yam ready. And mind you; you are exporting a container, so at least maybe 500 thousand tubers of yam will full a small container.
The challenges in it is where to get the yam and where to export it to.
To start exportation business, you will need some papers and is okay for you if you get it.
And mind you there are many countries that are looking for yams. And you are at large profit if you can send it down there.
The logistic problem is how to arrange it and get a container. This is shipping palaba. So leave it for the shipping company to work on. Your own is to transport it to the shipping office, and the work will be done.

Someone ask about bitter cola exportation.
Since Nigeria is now focusing on exportation, so any agricultural produce will be more valuable than petroleum, so I advice that we should focus on exportation especially agricultural produce.
Even if we need land for farming we can get it so cheap at the state government of each state. And if you don't have knowledge of farming, you can become the buyer of the produce from the farmer and later sell it to the final consumer.
Do not worry about all the papers that you need for the exportation. Government have make it easy and the papers are for our own sake. Because anything going outside the country must be verify so that it will not tarnish the image of our country. So please bear with the government.
In the next few years many people will resign from government work and focus on exportation business, because you will see it valuable and profitable.
So start exportation right now and you will always smile to your bank with ease.
