Business / How To Start A Business Online From Nigeria by CashCollector: 1:58pm On Jul 23, 2022
It can be challenging to start a business online in Nigeria. The lack of internet infrastructure, low internet speeds, and limited access to the global market make making money online in Nigeria a challenge.

To start your own business online in Nigeria, you must get a website first. You can use WordPress or Shopify as your website platform. Once you have your website set up, you need to think about payment options and how you will be able to accept them. PayPal is usually the preferred option for most people because it is easy for people outside of Nigeria to pay with PayPal.

Setting up a website, however, isn’t the only way to make money online from Nigeria. You can exchange your skill for money, and many websites allow you to accomplish that. Fiverr, for instance, lets you sell any service for a starting price of $5.

How to Get Paid for Your Services Online from Nigeria
With the help of online marketing, getting paid for your services from anywhere in the world is possible. The key to making money online is providing quality services and offering them at a fair price.

Getting paid for your services online is not easy. It takes time, effort, and commitment, but if you are determined to succeed, you can make a lot of money with this method.

How do I get paid for my work?

– Provide quality work that people will want to pay for

When you get online and you’re looking to make money by selling your services, it will benefit you to offer the best service you can. That is because people are more likely to refer others to your business if they liked the quality of the service they got. Additionally, you’ll be able to charge more, thereby making more money.

– Start by offering your service at a fair price

Although it is true that if you offer a quality service, you’ll more likely be able to charge more for your service, the truth is that when you’re just starting, you have to offer a fair price. Mainly because no one knows you, and you don’t have any track record yet. So, you’ll have to start by charging less, and with time, you’ll be able to charge more for your service.

– Offer multiple payment options

It is true that the most popular payment processor, PayPal, does not allow Nigerians to accept payments through their platform. If you find yourself in a position where you have to accept payments from your foreign clients from Nigeria, you may have to think outside the box. Thanks to the proliferation of the internet, there are now many ways to pay and accept payments online. You can use any of the other payment processors besides Paypal, or if you wish, you can even use cryptocurrency. I’ve received a lot of payments using bitcoins.

– Utilize social media

There was a time when it was cool to get out of social media altogether, but in today’s world, it would be dumb to let all that good customer base go away like that, especially when it costs you nothing in the first place.

It doesn’t cost you anything to set up an Instagram or Twitter account to promote your content. A lot of the sales I’ve made came from youtube.

– Acquire more skill

Since we’re on the subject of selling your skill for money, it will only make more sense to acquire a better skill set or work to get better at what you do. Thank God for the internet, now you don’t have to go the university for everything. If you’re looking to acquire a new skill, there are many ways to acquire it. For starters, youtube is the place to go or even read a blog like this, but if you want to be more adventurous, you can look to skillshare or lynda.com. There are many courses on a wide range of topics.

What are Other Ways of Making Money Online From Nigeria?
In Nigeria, there are many ways for people to make money online. These include:

– Affiliate Marketing

– SEO

– Paid Surveys

– Paid Media Buying

– Freelance Writing

Conclusion:
In conclusion, there’s a lot of money to be made on the internet, but that money isn’t going to come just because you want it. If you want to make money online, you have to start doing anything. And, if you don’t have a skill, you can acquire a skill with any of the websites I mentioned earlier.

Find a way to sell your skill; start by charging less while delivering a quality service, then work to charging what you’re worth. It sounds simple, but it takes a lot of work. Well, I never said it was going to be easy. Just start a business online from Nigeria today.

Business / How To Start A Youtube Channel In 2022 by CashCollector: 1:49pm On Jul 23, 2022
Recently, I wrote a post about why you should start an online business, but I realized, as I was discussing with one of my close friends, that a lot of people don’t know what to start with. This is totally understandable since there are a lot of things you can do online as a business. If you ask me for a piece of advice on how to start an internet business the cheap and easy way, I’ll tell you to start a blog or a youtube channel. So, by the end of this post, you will learn how to start a youtube channel in 2022.

We already know that if you want to start a youtube channel, you’ll need a Gmail account. That’s a non-issue. You can go to gmail.com to get one. I can easily write this post to be a walkthrough for creating a youtube channel, but I believe that you should be able to do that or easily find a video on youtube to show you how. I don’t believe that people are having a problem with creating a youtube channel, I think that the problems start to come when you realize that it’s difficult to keep putting out content frequently. Losing the motivation to create content is also an area that no one talks about. That usually stems from not getting the exposure you think you should be having. In this post, I will try to address some of those challenges and hopefully, you can go start a youtube channel that will eventually become big. Let’s get started!

Normally, there’s a path that leads to success on youtube, and that path is this: when you create your youtube channel, you have to frequently create quality content. Next, you have to put out as many videos as you can. Knowing that alone will not stop you from failing. Here are 4 things you should do to start a successful youtube channel in 2022.

Be Proactive: Create your youtube channel
This is the easiest of all the things you have to do. Just head on to youtube.com and create your channel. Don’t even worry about the channel name. For now, just make sure you create it and set it up.

Normally, you will want to figure everything out before you create a youtube channel. Although that makes sense, it is counterintuitive, and the reason I say that is because you’ll keep learning new things in your journey to become a Youtuber. So, I’ll say that even if you don’t know what you want to be posting videos about, you should still go ahead and create your channel. Don’t worry about trying to figure out the perfect name for your youtube channel either – you can change it later.

You should decide what kind of youtube channel you want
After you’ve created your youtube channel, you have to decide what kind of youtube channel you want to make. You see, there are two kinds of youtube channels you can create. The first one is a personal channel where you get to show your face and people connect to you on a personal level. The other kind of youtube channel you can make is a brand channel, and for that, you don’t have to show your face.

I always advise people to start a personal brand. That’s a youtube channel where you’re showing your face. When you decide to show your face on your youtube channel, that’s when you’ll realize if you’re scared of the camera or not.

Most people have camera fright. If you discover that you have a fear of the camera. One thing you can do is record yourself saying anything. Here’s a clue: pick up your phone and turn the camera on. Point it to yourself and make an introductory video for your youtube channel.

Upload, it to the channel, and you don’t even have to make it go public. The reason for doing that is so you can get used to talking to a camera.

You should decide if you want to take youtube seriously
There are a lot of youtube channels that are created daily, and of those channels, only the people that take it seriously will grow their channel into a big channel.

Before you start putting out videos, you want to know what kind of creator you want to be. If you see youtube as something of a hobby, then growing big won’t be your priority, and because channels grow big by posting content regularly, you can post whenever you feel like it because it is a hobby.

However, if you see youtube as a business, and you hope to start making money with it, then you’ll have to take it seriously. You’ll have to start posting content frequently without compromising on quality.

That means that if you’re going to take it as a business, then you’ll work a lot more than if you will take it as a hobby. It’s very important to know what you want to do on youtube because like I said at the beginning of this article, you have a more likelihood of going big if you post frequently – at least once a week.

Get good as you go
When you watch a video on youtube, you rarely stop the video and think about how much work has been put into the video you’re watching. Well, when you start a youtube channel, you’ll quickly realize how much work it takes to create one video.

You’re not going to make your best video on your first try. In fact, when you keep creating videos for a while, and you look back at your first few videos, you’ll cringe because you’ll realize that they suck. It’s totally fine provided that you keep improving on every video.

So, although your first couple of videos will suck, your goal shouldn’t be to create the best video in the world. The universal truth is that unless you’ve been making videos for a while, your first few videos will suck. So, don’t make it slow you down. Don’t get into the trap of putting more hours into creating a video than you’re supposed to because you want to make it better than what you are capable of.

Let the growth happen naturally. As you create videos for your channel, you’ll eventually get good at it, that’s how you want your journey to be.

You can look at MKBHD’s first video. It’s nothing close to his more recent videos.



If you do these 4 things, you’ll grow faster on youtube. Remember that youtube loves consistency above everything.

Business / Why You Should Start An Online Business by CashCollector: 12:57pm On Jul 23, 2022
I still remember the first time I was able to get online and browse the internet. I was 13 years old.

“There are so many things we can do with this,” I will say. “We can talk to people over the internet as opposed to talking over the phone.” In theory, this internet thing should allow us to fly planes remotely, or even allow us to computerize our homes. That’s what I thought in my young mind. I never thought that one day, I’ll be writing an article about starting a business online. Anyway, here are today.

There are a lot of ways you can benefit from starting an online business.

Independence
If you’re the kind of person that loves working on their own terms, without having a boss around to tell you how to and when to work on what, then this is gonna excite you. You see, when you start a business online, you’re totally in control. You can set your work hours, and decide what projects to work on, but more importantly, you can work on something you really love.

You can work on the things you love
Who would have thought that getting paid to travel will be a thing? Thanks to the internet, that’s a reality.

Perhaps the biggest advantage of the internet is the possibility of working on things that you love. For the first time in human history, you can buy a camera and record your hobby, post it on youtube and actually make money from it.

You no longer have to be tied to a job that you hate, or to a boss whose face you don’t like seeing. Almost anything can be monetized on the internet, and because of that, it is now possible to pursue your passion.

You can work from anywhere in the world
I started making money online, and my first job was designing a flyer. The client was from France, and I live in Nigeria. The only way that would have been possible was because of the internet. Seven years later, I started a youtube channel and my viewers came from different countries around the world.


When you start a business online, you’re not limited to your locality. That limitation gets lifted the instant you decide to build a blog or start a youtube channel, or whatever business you decide to build online.

When you start a physical business, you’re limited to the customers you can get where you set up shop. That’s why it’s all about location, location, location. Even when your business expands to serve not just your locality. Let’s say the entire state or the entire country, you’ll have to worry about the logistics of delivering the products to the client, but businesses online don’t have that problem.

If I create a course on skillshare or even a self-hosted course, all I will have to worry about is marketing the product to my customers who will come from different parts of the world. Also, because most online businesses sell intellectual products, if that’s what you also decide to sell online, then that means that you just have to make sure that your customers are able to download the product after paying you.

You don’t need a huge capital to start
If I decide today that I want to set up shop and start a business, I will have to worry about many things. The cost of the shop for the starters. I will worry about the cost of producing my product, the cost of marketing, and if I will be delivering the products to my customers, I will also worry about the cost of logistics.

If I want to start a blog, I will need domain and hosting. The domain and hosting of this blog you’re reading costs about $50 a year. If I want to start a youtube channel, however, the cost is zero. I just need to create a youtube channel and start posting.

So, on average, online businesses cost very little money to start as opposed to their physical counterparts. You don’t have to break the bank to make an online business work. In theory, you can literally build a business online on a shoestring budget.

Huge Income
One great reason to start an online business is the chance of making an attractive income.


Khaby Lame is famous on tiktok, but when the pandemic started, he was one of the people affected negatively. He was laid off from his job, and with nothing to do, he decided to start posting videos on tiktok, and the rest is history. He has over 140 million followers on the app, and he is estimated to have a net worth of anywhere from $2 to $5 million.

The internet is filled with stories of people like Khaby. People who started with nothing and somehow managed to build businesses that bring home millions of dollars.



Get time for other things in your life
The fact that the internet offers you an opportunity to make huge amounts of money by doing things you already do; means that you can easily outsource things that won’t be affected much if you don’t do them, and create as much time as you want for yourself. The time you can spend doing other things besides working.

The internet offers what seems like an easy path to freedom. However, to get to the point where you will start earning, you will need to put in the work needed to get there.

Just because you can build a business where you get to have fun doing what you like doesn’t mean that it will happen without work. In fact, just like any other business, you will have to put in a lot of work in your early days. All while not seeing many results.

The secret is to stay focused and stay dedicated, because eventually, your blog, youtube channel, or whatever business you’re starting will pick up, and that’s when your life will turn around.

The conventional wisdom of working hard at another person’s business because it’s expensive to start yours is no longer true. You can start a business online with as little as $100 if you’re ready to start today. Hell, if you start a youtube channel, it will be free.

Just make sure you have something that people are looking for.
