Lalasticlala, this is fp worthy

XXXXTENTACION:
Pure trash.....
They is no magic you can do as an Entrepreneur, Nigerians that can't even afford basic things like food how do you expect them to afford luxury products....
According to statistics 99% of Nigerians don't have up to #500,000 in their accounts how do you expect them to buy goods online...
all these motivational speakers sef.....

Nigerians don't have money until there's something important dey to pay for..

All of us dey disguise except Lalasticlala

Times are indeed hard. Contrary to government agencies quarterly report about a positive change in cost of inflation, the reality on the street and among the masses is different. The common man finds it difficult to feed and entrepreneurs are not left out of this mess too.

However, here are 3 sure and quickfire ways to ensure your business thrives amidst current economic disposition.

1. Take your business digital
There are about 100 million Nigerians online. What this means for your business is that there are at least, 5000 people who needs your goods or services. They are actively searching online but can they find you? You would think you are online but are you on the right platform? Online platforms like Owlette App helps you to connect to the right customers at the right time.

2. Buy and Sell Online
No matter what anyone says, it is cheaper and safer to buy and sell online. What this means for your business is that you can sell at ease and at the comfort of your home. You don't even have to have a physical meeting with any of your client before delivering goods and services. This can be achieved on platforms like Owlette. Back in the olden days, if you needed to sell a laptop, you will start walking around and hawking it to different people. They will even price you anyhow. But you can take charge by setting your own price and you are guaranteed to get interested buyers as soon as possible.

3. Be Reliable
This is the most important. The best form of advertising is "word of mouth". If you have been tried and tested at least three times, you are likely to get more referrals. But some Nigerian entrepreneurs were pushed into entrepreneurship by hunger.. small 100k credit alert like this, they have blocked client and ran away. That money will finish, but that client will spend their last kobo to pull you and your reputation down

Let's gather and laugh together

I am not even igbo. Nnamdi Kanu can rot in jail for all I care.. but the audacity for me comes when the AG of the whole federation publicly displays his bias and hate towards a tribe.. alaye, you won't be AG forever.. na only 1 year remain and make sure you relocate your entire family to Mars because you go chop your own breakfast..


How dare you compel us to label abokis and fulanis whose daily goal in life is to slaughter human beings like Asun and walk around with guns and matchet so they can inflict pain, injury and death and spill blood everywhere because one mumu promised them 7 virgins.. as bandits..

A bandit don't fvcking kill bro!! A bandit causes mayhem and public unrest.. bandit na NURTW.. dem go show people pepper small.. move ahead until maybe a year or two.. one person fit drop but ask around, na the person weyn think say him get jazz con dare matchet and stone..

Those are bandits!

vertueptime:
The have complex electronic and electrical systems,
they are not Rugged,
enter one big pothole light don off for dashboard,
they are low profile with expensive low profile tyres that are ​not ment for Nigerian roads,

Need Special mechanics and elctrictians
Cost of parts are outrageous,na big man car,
Fuel consumption.
If it breaks down on the road it will take the grace of God before you can even push it to the shoulder,

This one shook me to the liver ooo...

Quite eye opening! But a Benz is all of this and more..

What makes a Benzo better?

Jesus said riches are being stored in heaven..

Nigerian Pastors are storing their own on earth.. are they literally calling big Jes a liar?

dadabashua1:
most German cars are complex for our mechanics to understand when compared to the Japanese counterparts,so its easier to fix an accord or corolla or civic or Camry than a Benz or bimmer to an average mechanic in Nigeria,then secondly the electrical set up of most German cars is also a pain in the a*s to our rewires here,like I've always said,I won't drive Japanese car if I'm outside Nigeria,but to save myself the stress I will pick the jap mobile when I de naija,so in summary no be say German cars no make sense o,just that our environment no favor dem..lol

Why should mechanics now lie that their parts are expensive or that they break down easily..

Can I go for a BMW as my next car then?

Aren't bimmers strong and rugged?

dadabashua1:
What you said its the truth,especially when it comes to second value, 'most'Nigerians preferred Japanese cars when compared to German cars,when you see the second hand prices of accords,Camry, civic and corollas most especially from 2013 model years,then compared to their German counterpart of volks,BMW and Benz,you will pity those brands,yesterday a dealer was ready to drop 2010 tiguan 2.0t clean,very clean for 2007 accord(which i know the reason behind it anyway),a lot of reasons why it is so but I'm not ready to go into that conversation.

Please what's the reason ooo.. I don't want to assume

I mean.. I have never owned a BMW nor a Benz but from what I see on the road, a BMW is fine fine and fast fast..

I saw a 2014 over-sharp Nigerian used BMW car going for 1.9 million.. 2014!!! Is the seller mad? He's defo not a scam but is he crazy

a 2014 Benzo costs 5 times that price Nigerian used or not!

I am pained..

Before I settled for my mumu all for everyone camry 2011, I had a BMW in mind.. na mechanic tell me say NO NO..

No tangible reason ooo but I con dey fear..

Weyrey fit never even own proper honda accord for him life.

CountVersailles:

Your sister contemplating to even settle down with an Uber driver meant only one thing- she doesn't mind how much he earns..

My bro is looking for a woman with great future who they can pull resources together to achieve greatness.. he will also give her the chance to be anything she wants to be..

For emphasis, he owns his own construction firm on the island

CountVersailles:

may her Wisdom surpass Daniel's own.It a gift from above.Such a brilliant girl will gain admission to tertiary university @,15 /graduate @20

There's wisdom, there's knowledge and there's understanding..

She 'understands' what she's taught, so she 'knows' and that's what makes her 'brilliant'..
Wisdom is none of that and therefore, your Solomon prayer is invalid..

You can be wise without seeing the four walls of a classroom..

Modified: since he changed it from Solomon to Daniel, please also change wisdom to knowledge..

The bible never said Daniel was wise.. only booksmart..

Wise man no go allow dem throway am inside den

You want subsidy on Gas too, shebi? Same you city dwellers enjoying subsidy on petrol and electricity while those folks living in the villages continue to pick the bills as funds meant for their roads and cottage clinics and industries is being used to fund subsidy lifestyles for us in the cities and towns.
Sir, if you are truly in the gas business, you should know what gas is doing now even globally since the hurricane ida occurred in the US and locked 90% of the supply from that axis affected by ida.

You guys should please learn more about your industry, it's not the job of Buhari to ask you to READ or to subsidise gas for you at a time even industries in Europe are reducing production because of high gas and oil prices.

Take a break from nairaland and get real perspective of factors affecting your industry and understand it very well enough to be regarded an expert there . It's no brainer that except things change, gas and crude oil price may even increase more and Oman is already predicting that it will reach $200 per barrel because of bad weather and return of most industrial productions after covid-19. Brent was on $75.10 the last time I checked this morning. It has nothing to do with PMB, your usual scapegoat for everything.

I like the way you dispelled and enlightened the poster.. think I've learnt a bit too..

But I'm curious, isn't cooking gas a waste product from the refining of Petroleum that was just trapped and liquified?

So, why is a waste product expensive?
e just be like say make dem dey sell water for N10 and urine for N500..
Please educate me

cos I'm about to go shoot my chemistry teacher in the buttock.
