People just want a cheap alibi, someone to heap the blame of their own ineptitude on. Continue to blame the FG while people with foresight have taken the bull by the horns and prospering in the larger world. Graduates, please be creative. Few months ago, I was also thinking I wasn't business oriented and I couldn't survive but here I am doing good. The link below is my story. https://www.nairaland.com/2316549/self-employment-realest-dealTalking of capital, there are businesses people will readily give you "credit", where you take goods, sell to your customers, remove your own profit and pay back the owner. I met a brother very much older than me who is also in my line of business who started with nothing. This is what he told me he did. First, he went to meet people that sells beer in wholesales and compare their prices, then he picked out the wholesaler with the best price and struck a deal with him. I will find customers to buy from me and you will sell on credit, once I make delivery and I get paid, then I pay you. He then afterwards went to find customers, went to bars, restaurants, hotels and anywhere beer is been sold and told them he could supply them, all they need do is give him the number of various brands of beer they want and he will deliver to them. This brother started with nothing, zero naira but today he's a big distributor. He is successful. There is a market for everything, there is something out there certain people want and they are ready to pay big for it. Think, do your research, find the market and their need(s) and supply them. Stop waiting for government. Pardon my errors. |

deltateam: Its profitable with your mindset and God factor. Remember busy market et al. This thread is not solely to encourage people to go into pure water business. It is to encourage people to go into all sorts of legitimate business. You're trying too hard to impose the pure water business on everybody. Okay, it's profitable but that's not the only business around. |

PilotOz: There's no excuse to be poor in this life... And this thread is very educative. The economy is so messed up, that even a cert is nt enuff to get one out off the mess... There r several business one can go into, regardless of ur background or personality. Im a yr 2 student in a college of edu in Edo, But immediately after graduation, im going to learn hw to drive trucks. I see most graduates complaining of no capital to start up sumtin.. Their problem isn't really lack of capital, but they lack a gud saving habit, and fear of doing sumtin "too low for a graduate" Hmmm... When i did my first poultry business, i packed up birds droppings, got stained, and dirty frm taking care of their house, but 4 more months later when i was counting the money made frm sales, men.... I was like "im ready to get dirty again for this" So we all shud be ready to take the bull by d horn and do sumtin... If the pure water business is really profitable, No harm in doing it.... #man must hustle. Naso o my brother. Brokeness is not my portion. Brokeness will never be our portion. |

Dyt: NOT EVERYONE IS BUSINESS ORIENTED NOT EVERYONE CAN DO OFFICE WORKS WHEN WE WILL LEARN TO TOLERATE ONE ANOTHER
WE ARE DIFFERENT PEOPLE AND CANT ALL DO SAME THING. Everyone is business oriented. Problem is sometimes our egos get in the way and we don't want to start small. I understand if "capital" is what's hindering people but not this lie people like to tell themselves " I'm not business oriented". People are just not "small or petty business oriented". People can learn a craft while waiting for that dream job and make extra money from it. We need to also realise we won't all get that dream job and if we keep waiting for it and time keeps tickling by, hunger go wire person ehn. |

walexy1: Hello Guys, I am thrilled by this thread and OP's testimony. And for everyone sharing one idea or the other, thank you all. I am someone who believes firmly in entrepreneurship as a way for the youths of this generation to arm up themselves against the harsh economic situation. As a result, I am in need of ideas on what businesses one can do to serve as another source of income, totally different from the main income source(monthly salary).
OP and other good guys, your advice would be of great importance. Cheers and Thanks
P.S: If your intentions on this thread is to scam people (for persons with impish motives), sorry, you are very very wrong There are lot of business opportunities out there waiting to be explored. Your capital and location goes a long way in determining the kind of business you can delve into. Pls be careful, some people might message you offering partnership or fake business proposals since it seems you have the capital. Be very careful, Sir. |

OP, that's GNLD.
OP, why don't you learn a skill and make cool money or source for money to start something small. If you can afford it, think about something and work towards it. All these jobs are not worth it. You could make far more on your own. |

deltateam: I don't know your location but in my place every pure water factory have vans and they move about supplying to whoever wants to buy in bags. Nobody has to go to any factory, the factory comes to you by transport. All right, Sir. My question is, how many graduate out there do you think would wanna hawk pure water even if the profit margin in a month is 100k?. Let's be real. How I explained it earlier is how a friend goes about it and he's doing good so it's not like I'm rejecting your own method, Sir. |
Jobs/Vacancies › Re: SELF-EMPLOYMENT; The "Realest" Deal by Bolade005(op): 2:37pm On May 17, 2015 |
deltateam: Locate people who sell it and supply them? Oga o. When they can easily get them from the pure water companies themselves who supply with vans.
Am talking about supplying to consumers direct not supplying to someone that supplies to consumers and waiting until they request another supply. Its different from your beer business.
2 ways to go about it are ;
1. Buy from those companies usually when you see them with their vans collect their numbers.Call them when its needed and buy then put in freezer. Finally hawk it around, usually in the market not residential areas where people have refrigerators.
2. Buy from those who buy from those that supply in vans.Option 2 is usually the best where your house is far from market and you don't have constant power supply.Usually price may be a bit higher like #100 but then you are assured of it's coldness and the fact they are usually near to market. You buy, sell, buy, sell off and continues... Not everybody have the time to go to factory. Some appreciate it when u can do that and just deliver it to them. It's all good any which way. |

LaurelP: Thanks bro. Location matters a lot I know. So what location is your friend using? And is he using coolers or freezer to chill the water? Pls don't mind my inquisitiveness Nah, Pls feel free to ask questions. I don't know your location but I believe water is an essential commodity everywhere irrespective of location. All this friend does is to find people who sell satchets or bags and supply them. He doesn't store them somewhere, once he receives order, he finds a taxi to help him transport from the factory directly to these people. He sells bags not satchets. |

I really want people to come in and share business ideas. Some people can raise capital but they need someone to bring up an idea and it won't be a bad thing to help such people. The purpose of this thread is to encourage people to engage in something productive. It's also not a bad idea to learn a craft while waiting for that dream job.
Let's help one another. Thanks. |

LaurelP: Oga if you're into the business tell us how u started and the challenges you encountered.
If you're not, allow the person to whom the question was directed to tackle it. Or are you deltateam? Bro, pure water business is a relatively easy business to delve into and the capital needed to start is also on the small side. All you need do is to find a pure water factory and then find market for the product. Locate people who sell it and supply them. Pure water business is easy. I'm not into it but I know someone who is into it. I'm adding bottled water to my business soon. |

anonimi: Yes there will certainly be challenges and setbacks but one can, with a lot of DISCIPLINE and forebearance, always turn any obstacle to a stepping stone of opportunity.
The main challenge most of us face is the temptation to start spending our profit [and even small capital] instead of contiuously ploughing back at the initial stage till we get gradually comfortable.
Resisting that temptation, in the form of social pressure, is the greatest challenge! I opened a thread to educate people but it turned out I'm the one getting educated by intelligent people. A young businessman has to disciplined in the beginning, he has to be frugal and not just spend money as it flows in. I read a quote somewhere that "Anybody that cannot save, such a person is not ready for greatness". |
