I am using this medium to commend Governor Emmanuel Udom of my dear state and his Special Adviser on Tourism Development to Akwa Ibom State Ini Edo for their good works.

Also appeal to them to create enabling platform for youth to unleash their tarlent to enable growth in the state, in other to attract foreign investors in different sectors.

Quoting Ini Edo on her words

“I am Grateful to my boss, His Excellency, Gov, Udom Emmanuel for the reappointment to serve in the tourism sector of our state. I look forward to great accomplishments in this new era,” she wrote.

“I am overwhelmed by the show of love and appreciation from all of you. As you all celebrate with me, I pray that you will be celebrated in every area of your life.

“Indeed, it is about time we the youths of this country gets included in the running of our dear country..."

The tourism sector, if properly managed can generate huge revenue to the state and also create jobs for the youths just like Lagos is doing fine.

Akwa Ibom state is the centre of good foods and hospitality, but there is no companies to create jobs for the citizens, and this is a big blow to the state.

Examples of tourist events that can attract investo includes trade fair's, carnivals, fashion show, tarlent hunts, beauty pageant, business exhibitions, Business trainings, club houses among other events are part of what attracts people to places.

Government sponsored events should be free or at a discount to encourage participants.

Today, Joshua Udom shared 6 ways to raise business capital he read from a web page. If you want to know how to raise capital for your business, you’re not alone. In 2016, 73% of small businesses used some form of financing.

While money doesn’t grow on trees, there are a number of ways you can seek funding for your business—some more traditional than others.

Here are six ways you can raise the money you need to expand your business.

1. Bootstrap your business
Provided that your business isn’t operating in an industry that requires lots of startup capital, like manufacturing or transportation, you can potentially fund your own venture—and it may be more feasible than you think.

For instance, even if you don’t have enough in savings to run the operation, you could get a 0% / low interest APR business credit card, offering you the chance to borrow cash for a period of time without incurring interest.

Perhaps you think funding the business yourself carries lots of risk—and it does. But it’s important to consider your potential.

Brent Gleeson, a leadership and team building coach specializing in organizational transformations, states, “if you believe in your vision and have an absolute refusal to accept failure as an option, you should feel comfortable investing your own money into the business.”

Investing some of your own money will usually make investors and lenders more willing to partner with you down the line.

2. Launch a crowdfunding campaign
There are many crowdfunding success stories out there. And with the right product and pitch, you can be one of them.

For instance, in 2013, "Formlabs, a maker of affordable desktop 3D printers, raised $3 million on Kickstarter" as read. This capital allowed the company to scale their operation and achieve their goal of manufacturing affordable 3D printers for the public.

Eventually, the 3D printer maker caught the attention of venture capitalists. During a series A round, Formlabs closed $19 million in investments, giving them the chance to expand beyond their initial goals.

Crowdfunding gives you the opportunity to connect with like-minded people who you wouldn’t normally be able to engage. You can gauge interest in your product and understand what’s resonating with people and what’s not. This shows you how to improve your product and your pitch. Most importantly, crowdfunding can help you raise money to fund your business.

So, how do you launch a successful crowdfunding campaign to raise capital for your business?

Nathan Resnick, a serial entrepreneur who’s had success raising money on crowdfunding sites, stresses that you must develop your story, as “people on crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter or Indiegogo want to know how you turned your idea into a reality.”

Your video pitch must show the value of your product, the need it serves, and why you require support. Having a good website and doing PR outreach helps as well.

3. Apply for a loan
Even as technology creates new ways of raising capital, traditional financing products remain the primary way small businesses fund their operations. According to the Small Business Administration (SBA), almost 75% of financing for new firms comes from business loans, credit cards, and lines of credit.

Generally speaking, the small business loans with the most favorable rates and terms are going to be SBA loans and term loans from banks and other financial institutions. To get approved, you typically need to meet requirements like the following:

You have been in business for 2 years or more
The business has strong annual revenues (typically at least $100,000)
Good credit (like a score of 640+)
These aren’t hard and fast rules and will differ depending on the lender. If you don’t qualify for a term loan with a good APR, there are other, albeit more expensive, types of funding available.

If you have outstanding invoices, you could opt for invoice financing to get that money faster. Or, if you need cash for machinery, tech devices, office furniture, or something similar, consider equipment financing.

Before applying for a small business loan, make sure to prepare any loan documents you’ll need to show ahead of time. You’ll be asked to show a profit and loss statement, balance sheets, tax returns and bank statements. In some cases your personal information may be checked as well.

4. Raise capital by asking friends and family
Raising capital through friends and family is a viable option for many. According to the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor, 5% of US adults have invested in a company started by someone they know.

Caron Beesley, a content marketing specialist and SBA contributor, advises that you ideally select a friend or family member with solid business skills. She also suggests that you “narrow your list down to friends or family who have faith that you will succeed, who understand your plans, and who are clear about the risks.”

Once you’ve done that, Beesley stresses that you must demonstrate passion and due diligence by having a sound business plan and direction. Also, be realistic about how much money is needed.

Finally, make sure to agree on what form the funding will take. They could be a loan or equity in your company. If the money is a loan, agree to a repayment plan and use a P2P lending website to document everything and manage the loan.

5. Find an angel investor
By definition, angel investors are accredited individuals with a net worth exceeding $1 million or annual income of more than $200,000. They typically operate alone, but may team up with other angel investors and form a fund.

Knowing this, angel investors can be a good source of capital for your business. First, you must have a solid business plan put together and a great pitch ready. You have to capture their attention with enthusiasm and promising data points about your company’s current situation and future potential.

You may be wondering how you find angel investors. This might seem difficult, but many resources exist.

For instance, Funding Post arranges for angel investor showcases around the country. And the Angel Capital Association is a great platform to seek out, meet, and arrange pitches to angels.

6. Get investment from venture capitalists
Venture capitalists (VCs) typically want to invest in slightly more mature companies than angel investors and sometimes want to have more of a say in managing the day-to-day operations.

Since VCs have a responsibility to achieve certain returns for the firm or fund, they want scalable and cash-flow positive companies with proven and scalable products and businesses.

If your company satisfies these requirements, you could apply for an investment with a VC firm. It’s not the easiest thing to accomplish, but plenty of small businesses have done it successfully.

Your pitch is crucial to obtaining funding. Sequoia, one of the most successful VC firms on the planet, stresses, “you need to convey the main reasons why an investor should love your business in the first 5 minutes.” Sequoia partners state you can do this in three simple steps, which are:

Explain what’s changed. Detail the innovation, industry shift, or problem that presents substantial opportunity for your company.
Explain what you do. In one sentence, show how your company can capitalize on this opportunity.
Explain the facts. Get to your company’s story and financials quickly. Lay out the opportunity with numbers. Discuss the team and their abilities and experience.
Get the capital you need to drive forward
The key lesson here is that you have many options for financing your business. Don’t get discouraged if one doesn’t work out. By demonstrating due diligence and being resourceful and persistent, you can raise the capital you need.

Then, money will no longer hold back your business. You’ll be free to expand.

Social media platforms create an excellent job opportunity for you to connect with interested buyers and sellers leads, learn more about conmapny's audience, and generate sales. There are several types of social media available, so you must understand all your options to choose the best one.

In this post, Joshua Udom will review the five types of social media and provide examples too.

The types of social media we’ll cover in this post are:

Social networks
Media sharing networks
Social blogging networks
Discussion networks Forum Eg. this Nairaland that you are reading this post from.
Review networks
Survey Site.
E-commerce
Dropshipping
Etc.

1. Social networks
One of the most well-known types of social media is social networks.

These networks allow users to connect with people and brands online.

Social networks can help you:

Build brand awareness
Generate new leads
Build relationships with customers
Provide customer service
And more
Many people call social networks “relationship platforms” because they allow people to connect and build a relationship. You can share information, photos, videos, and more through these sites. These platforms focus on sharing knowledge and connecting with people.

Let’s take a look at three of the most popular types of social networks:

Facebook


With over 2.3 billion monthly active users, Facebook is one of the most popular social networks available to your business. Many people use these platforms to connect with family, friends, and brands.

For your company, Facebook offers an excellent opportunity to connect with your audience.

You can share:

Status updates
Photos
Videos
Links to content
Polls
Facebook also offers paid advertisements that allow you to attract new followers to help grow your business.

Twitter


Twitter has over 326 million monthly active users. This platform is used similarly to Facebook, with users posting photos, videos, status updates, links, polls, and more.

The most significant distinction between these social networks is the size of the message. Twitter’s unique attribute is that you only have 280 characters for each of your messages. This limit means that you need to get to the point with what you’re trying to say.

Twitter also offers paid advertisements for your business. You can run a multitude of different ads to gain new followers and earn conversions for your business.

LinkedIn


LinkedIn boasts over 610 million users in more than 200 million countries and territories.

This social network is a great place for professionals to connect. It’s an excellent platform for building professional relationships, sharing information, finding new jobs, and recruiting new candidates.

You can also advertise to people who use LinkedIn. It’s a great place to target professionals interested in your business.

Nice one

Thank you for taking your time to read them all, If you have any question, don't forget to drop it here

My name is Joshua Udom,

I find this article educating that is why I would like to share it with you.

Recently I find out that the main reason why people seem to spend more money during Christmas is poor financial planning. As we might have noticed, then the New Year usually comes with a certain kind of hardship, that if not effectively observed can lead to disastrous financial constraints.

So here are steps to take to avoid or reduce overspending

Create a Budget and Stick to It
To ensure that you do not overspend during the holidays, create a budget, and stick to it. The regular items that you spend on every month as well as extra expenses such as vacations, special meals, and gifts. When you’re budgeting for extras try to be frugal but also ensure that you are being realistic about your expenses. This means that you should not overspend but you should not also deprive yourself of having fun. After all, it is the holiday season!

You do not need to put yourself under unnecessary pressure. Keep that in mind and stick to the good financial principles of budgeting for your income and expenses, keeping to your budget, and avoiding unnecessary expenses.

Watch Out for Your Overspending Clue.
It’s not just about paying close attention to your budget, it’s also about being able to recognize the things that may cause you to overspend, and avoid those. Avoid putting yourself under too much pressure especially to do things that might cost you too much or more than what you bargained/budgeted for.

Do Not Be Afraid to Ask for Help.
Do not beat yourself up if things do not exactly go according to plan. Once you realize you need help, ask for it because staying financially uninformed and not seeking help does not do anything to benefit you. As a bank that highlights better money management, we want you to understand that we are always ready to help. Microfinance Banks offers several loan packages with flexible repayment plans and low-interest rates. So if you need a pick me up, we are happy to help.

Create a Stash for the Month With 51 Days
January and Febuary usually feels like it goes on forever but one way to tackle this seemingly unending month is to ensure you are financially ready for it. One of the easiest ways to ensure your January doesn’t come at you too hard would be to create an emergency fund in a savings account such as the target account

With the Target Savings Account, you can save towards a specific period, project, or event with ease.

The most important requirement to ensure that these steps are followed to the latter is discipline.

Don’t let the fun festive times be financially ruinous. Budget for your January and February expenses and you’ll start the new year with fewer financial worries.

I will be back soon...

What is your questions, drop it here lets answer it all...

My name is Joshua Udom and today I wand to introduce some new ways you can earn extra cash on social media apps with your smart pone.

There is no limit to how much you can make from these apps. There are many apps in Nigeria that gives everyone equal opportunities to earn as much as they possible can, by performing simple tasks that you otherwise did for free. It is so simple that you can do this "in your sleep". This is the only way youths are making money these days since there is no job in the country.

So what are you waiting for, you have already missed lot's of money.

I will be sharing with you how you can generate substantial income (side hustle) with your mobile phone. This lesson will be splited into 5 courses that you will enjoy reading. Also if you want the video tutorial of it, you can download it below my sugnature.

Let's get started

1. Facebook
As the largest social media network worldwide, Facebook is a very good place to make money. In short, people are leveraging on Facebook on a daily basis and making cool bucks. You can consider starting a side business using Facebook, instead of just using your data for chatting, watching videos or killing boredom.

One of the best ways to make a positive impression of yourself is on your Facebook profile. Make your profile look catchy and attractive by using a good profile photo. In your biodata, give a fantastic description of yourself, your location (optional), contact website, and so on. As someone who is ready for business, your Facebook profile look business-like to attract the right customers.

You can sell anything on Facebook, except some prohibited stuff like alcohol, tobacco, firearm, gambling, illicit drugs, and others. Whatever that can be purchased at an offline store can be sold on Facebook. The good news there is that you must not have a shop before selling an item. Ways you can make money using Facebook include:

Write a good content. Good and catchy content is like honey that attracts the ant. As you dish out a good content, people will start noticing you and traffic will be directed to your Facebook account. With a good traffic, you can introduce products to your fans.
You could also create a live video and give lectures to people, while answering their questions and engaging with them.

At this level, you have become a brand and an influencer on Facebook. Other Facebook users can leverage on your influence and advertise their goods on your wall. They can pay for the advertisement or you earn a commission based on the number of people that purchased the product through your influence.

Join some entrepreneurial groups. If you have products or services you want to promote using Facebook, there are some groups created for simply buying and selling. There is a feature on Facebook called Facebook Marketplace where anyone can trade anything. You can take your products to such a place. Also, some groups on Facebook have a particular day mapped out for advertising, you can leverage that to sell yourself.

Create Facebook ads. Facebook ads require opening a Facebook page. The good thing about this feature is that you can reach an audience based on their location, interest, gender, age, and other criteria. However, you may not be able to sell much if your products are not trendy and on-demand.
Become a social media manager. you can help to manage the Facebook accounts of prominent people, celebrities or organizations. By managing a corporate social media account, your duties include scheduling Facebook posts, responding to comments and inbox messages, monitoring ad campaign metrics, building an audience, and so on. This will earn you some money at the end of the day.

Apply for a job. Companies and individuals advertise for a job on their Facebook pages or using the Facebook job tab. You could see some of them on your newsfeed or when you use the search button. Whether part-time or full-time, you could be lucky to get a job. Furthermore, you can join some groups that list online job leads and find a suitable job.
