bintudon: I do import wristwatches that come with bracelet and educational kids tablet.

newacca: Creative and logical thinking can help you in identifying a societal or global problem. Curiosity, findings, capacity building will help you come up with solution. Your gut, passion and skills will help you create a business model for this solution to transform it into a venture for you. All the best.

On a last note, find people who share same interest and like-minds to connect with ( networking ). share ideas and information, utilize the internet. Bonus tip: if you are in Abeokuta you may join our meet-up group, which is at it's infant stage : https://www.nairaland.com/1831775/young-aspiring-entrepreneurs-abeokutalets-meet

scobaba: make dem no post this guy go bama oo, like them do dat oda guy wey just marry, go resume for war front immediately after the wedding.

newacca: My simple and reasonable advice is: if you can't get a job, get a skill ( if you want to go farther, prepare yourself and mind right from college to become an employer rather than becoming an employee )
Get a skill!

bintudon: I'm in need of markter, call 07031085295

Nafizzey: Great thread OP I commend ur efforts.

@jamalee, you raised a good point here
Let us look for a problem and then look for the solution to the problem you have identified or you should feel a need for people: that is the secret of doing business.

As one who strongly have passion for entrepreneurship & see me successful on my own own.(self employed),

My question is how does one identity a problem/need that urgently needs solution in a society to take advantage by turning it to money

. I need clue pls & Give an instance..
thnx as i await ur reply...

israel7732: UPS at this day and age?........ Sine wave inverter rocks.
ups will later cause damage to your appliance or self destruct.

mecherine: it depends on what you really need from your UPS. Mine I just need it to power my laptop. I hv mercury 1200 pro ups which I converted to inverter by adding more ups battery and adding fan to it. Though am still going to add more bigger battery to it, still on testing mood. I will construct external battery charger to it. For now it is working properly. I will update the info as time goes on.

shegz4law: I'm passionate about starting a business... I really wish there are institutions in Nigeria established for the purpose of providing loans with low interest rates....

jamalee: Baba 11, you've really opened a good thread: a thread that has meaning and really make sense. Though our Government has not done good in the area of job employmem, if I want to view it from my own perspective. Wha I think about this qualm is that our population is increasing everyday. Nigeria is presently over two hundred million and Lagos is taking the highest of the populatio. Lagos is now over twenty million. Increasing in our population has caused the problem of unemployment in Nigeria because everybody want to go to School. Every year, millions of students are graduating from Universities, Polytechnics, College of Educations. Tell me, if these millions were employed this year, would next year million Graduates be employed too? What of the upper year? Or the employed ones last year will be sacked because of this year fresh Graduates? Let us think and re-think about this situation on ground. It's not only Nigeria that has this problem of unemloyment. It happens in America England, Germany, France, Peru, Brazil, Argentina, Canada, Egypt, Ghana, India, and the rest of the World. Now, this my advice. Let us look for a problem and then look for the solution to the problem you have identified or you should feel a need for people: that is the secret of doing business. The problem of our Graduates is that they want to engage themselves in blue-collar jobs or dirty work. They want to be engaged in white-collar jobs or neat work. Most of them want to work in Banks, MTN, glo, airtel, P & G, Nestle, Cadbury,Glaxosmithkline, Emzor, Orange drugs, Larfage, Dangote, AP, Mobil, Con oil, Forte oil, Famfa oil, Chevron, etc not knowing that it is not easy like that. Some know how to start a business while some don't. Those that know how to start lack fund, like me. Those that don't kow how to start is not their fault. It is either they lack useful information or don't know anything at all due to the education they had in their various Tertiary Institutions. Those that built those giants or gigantic Companies don't have education. Those that had did it in a part-time way when they become successful. So think and re-think. I'll keep inspiring my fellow Nairalanders and Nigerians at a whole. I'm coming, I want to take my cup of coffee. Wanna join me? Okay, let's go...

TheUnbeatable: A nursery is a place where seedlings are raised. Most tree crops pass through the nursery before they are planted on the field. Flowers too are reproduced in the nursery.

I chose this business because it requires less time and less cost and less risk but profitable on a long term. If it is well managed, it can be a good source of money to the working class.

TheUnbeatable: Crop nursery business.

chukwuma101: APC will lose National Credibility if they field Buhari as the flagbearer. Buhari is only a general in the North. He's got nothing on SW, SE and SS. APC would be championing the re-election of GEJ if they fail to field a credible alternative come 2015.
