HOW I MADE MY FIRST #50,000 ONLINE
This evening I feel like inspiring someone out there especially on online business
Just like some of you,i do feel its not possible to make such money online,the money used to be huge to me way back then (that amount of money is not huge to me anymore). That was when I just finished my university days at 19 years of age,i was very naive,not used to making money anywhere.
Fastforward to my service year,I had a friend who likes reading news here on Nairaland,since I love political news,I joined her.
During my nysc service, one day I was so broke,then something told me to just click on the business section of NL if i will see anything that would fetch me money.I did and holla,I saw lots of make 30,000 with 2k,make millions online,I clicked everything and I read through.It happens that most of them are not legitimate or too tasking for me at that moment with little pay,but one thing was that in all the posts I read, I gained something. I gained courage,I learnt some lessons and I continue pursuing what to do.
One of the things I learnt was that connection is needed in life,and the connection is not necessarily to meet someone at the top, anyone can help at any point in time,no matter how the help is little.
One of the first few things I learnt was how to connect with people who can give the right information to me.
To connect with people, you don't need to ask them I want to be your friend to learn from you, many won't even think twice before blocking you, you can't also make a friend by sending pm to the person, they won't reply you. This is because it is in human nature to repel those they feel are only there to take from them. You can also imagine someone trying to be your friend because he/she want something from you, how will you feel?Few will accept such people as friends.
THIS IS HOW YOU CAN CONNECT WITH THOSE YOU NEED THEIR HELP
Try not to just be a parasite, make the benefit mutual, try to look for ways you too can contribute positively to them and they will see reasons to keep you around them. We all have one or two things we can offer others,try to search for those things you can as well offer,develop yourself on it and offer the person that you need help from and you will see both of you connecting.
For example, the person that taught me how to open a US PayPal,I didn't even ask him to do so,I just saw he posted the picture of a baby,what I did was like the picture and I told him the baby is very cute,and will be cute in certain dress,and I made a nice dress for the baby. He was so happy that we became friends, he has taught me lots of things today free of charge without even asking. There was another person I helped with an enquiry,egg business, I helped him do all the enquiry and he helped me in my importing business somehow, not like she gave me money or taught me because I have already known about it through reading, asking other people et cet ra, but what she did was that she told me the truth about the business, we went to the airport together and so on like that. All she did was simply building my confidence and I am glad. Lots of people know about importation thing but won't do a thing because they lack the confidence to start,even those that have attended semimard on how to import from China,Us and the likes.
Now after you have seen someone to help you with information what is next?
Many people will loose it all when they don't know the right ways of asking questions, they want to depend solely on the helper,don't do that or the helper will just get tired of you. What I did and still doing is any slight information, I add up to it by using our popular information helper, MR GOOGLE. For instance, the person teaching me the PayPal thing,I won't be asking silly questions like what is even PayPal, I will just use Google, and thus I ask only cogent questions that won't stress the person in helping me out with.
NOW to the main TOPIC, How I got made my #50,000
I made my money from importing business, it was quick and easy because I have done lots of underwork before I made the importation itself. And I didn't use a single money from my pocket until I was doing the clearing. The first thing I worked on was the market,(I will be making another post on how to get your desired market),after I have gotten my market,I imported,and distributed items to my customers. You maybe wondering how people will trust me with their hard earned money online, it was a simple maths I did,and a little psychology. There's likelihood you trust me if I have given you something worth half of the money you want to give to me,its that simple.
That was how I made my first #50,000 online,from the comfort of my room. After that I have done several business, I call them SIDE HUSTING because there's the real business that am working on that can fetch me better catch even if I decide to sleep for some years not lifting a finger.
I just taught you how to fish for your own fish without necessarily giving you a fish.

Your brain can take you to your highest success and
Can as well bring you down. Use it wisely

With determination,you can make it

The best bet in making any money is using your brain

HOW TO MAKE MILLIONS IN YOUR BUSINESS
Now you have been reading lots of books,write ups on making it in your business, you have been reading,you have to PERSEVERE, KEEP GOING,DONT GIVE UP, BE FOCUSED et cet ra. After keeping up with all that you are still earning peanuts. Then you need to read this article here.

The truth that many will not tell you is that to make it in any business, you need funding for proper PACKAGING and you need to do that from onset to make people appreciate what you do. Your business need to stand well and unique in some ways with before it will be something that will fetch you big money on a daily,weekly or monthly basis.
In business,the more money you put (INVESTMENT) wisely,the more PROFIT you will make.
In an African setting, an average Nigerian may not patronise you no matter how much you are good if he/she is not seeing those extra packaging in the business.
This is what I am trying to say, the more you make your business look beautiful,the more beautiful people (money wise) will come.

NOW WHAT IS THE WAY OUT?
..........................................
WAY OUT...... READ BELOW!!!!!!!!
Now since you are a broke Nigerian guy/girl,just trying to pursue your business dream,HOW DO YOU SEE FUNDS to improve your business and have BETTER PACKAGING
Now,this is the secret that many do, its called SIDE HUSTLING.
What is Side HUSLING
By my definition,side HUSTLING is any other work or job you do to support the real JOB,WORK or BUSINESS
It is from SIDE HUSTLING that you will see money to feed yourself,for house rent and the likes and still develop your business.

The mistake many baby enterpreneurs make is that they want to cater for themselves from the little profit from thier business, this will make them to become what I term "THE HUNGARY ENTERPRENEUR"
Being a hungary enterpreneur, no matter how focused you are,you will always have the mindset of "" just let me do it to get money"" and this mindset may end up either killing the business or not allowing the business to grow.
Now back to the main topic..........
Now you can package your business with the profit that comes from the business and use the Side HUSTLING to cater for other needs.
These days I see many baby enterpreneurs saying they cannot do office job,this work that work even if they were offered freely. Now,this could be RIGHT and also WRONG, depending on the type of job.
If you see an office work that wont allow you to put the neccesary effort or time to your business, then it doesnt worth it,but if it wont,then it worths all of it. Side HUSTLING is not limited to office job alone,it could be any job,work to add to your income and give you space to use the profit from your business in developing the business for a while. It could be home tutoring,it could be online jobs et cet ra
Let me cite a real life example for you to understand better.
Mr A and B are both graduate of Agricultural science.
After graduation Mr A and MR B was able to save #100,000 each for thier farm business. Immediately,
Mr A decided to use his #100,000 to buy a land,and seedlings for crop planting,thus Mr A was able to buy 1 acre of land,his farm equipment and he started the business and Mr A was doing fine. Mr B decided to use his own #100,000 to buy only a land. He bought 5acres of land without farm equipments and seeds for planting so could not start the business that year.
Mr A started seeing profits from his own farm business, and hes using the profit to pay house rent,feeding and thus Mr A is limited to making a profit of #60,000 monthly.
Meanwhile Mr B was doing HUSTLING around,was getting around 40k monthly for feeding, house rents and the likes,after 2 years MR B was able to see enough cash to buy farm equipments,seeds for planting etc on his 5acres of land.
Now Mr A is still getting a profit of #60,000 monthly while Mr B who started this year was able to get #200,000 monthly because he has a bigger farm land. Now Mr A is used to catering for his needs from his farm alone because hes focused just on his farm while Mr B is used to hustling around for catering,Mr B used the #200,000 profit to develp his farm busines, he bought new land and started another farm business. Now after 1 year,Mr A's profit was doubled to #120,000 while Mr B can now get upto a millionaira profit because he has two lands 5acres each and was able to hustle ariund to develop them more. Now Mr B is doing better than mr A .
LESSONS OF THE STORY
1. Its not all about persistance,focus and perseverance alone,some business need other things to survive.
2. To become successful in business sometimes you need to take a break to source for more funding for your business
3. Mr B had good planning from onset while Mr A is only intrested in pursuing his enterpreneurship career,being focused and persevering
4. Mr B was able to use his brain right from the Onset while Mr A wasnt and never understood his life settings

No job 4now but learning tailoring

Keep learning the tailoring and try to learn it very well. You can do buying and selling, that will make the 15k to keep rising, look for something around you that people may need to get,look for a way to get it for them and earn your commission. As per house rent,if you were in Lagos,I will advice you to still go stay with family or friends because renting of apartment is costly, as you are learning and doing a side business, you can be saving for your sewing machine,while you are saving for your sewing machine and learning, you need to learn good human relationship, morals and good way of talking, learn to smile always,all this will help you get customers once you are done learning and start your own sewing business.
Sewing is a very good business once you are good,getting customers is the easiest

Please all the business guru in the house should pls help a brother. I finished my NYSC in 2013 and since then it has been private work all the way. I resigned from the last one last year after two years when it was obvious that there was no hope of future growth. A big Aunt has asked me to move over to PHC to try to see if there is going to be a better offer.
Two months gone and nothing is coming up, I have to volunteer to work with a family friend just to make sure that the mind is engaged.
Just two days ago, my Aunt suggested that we go into dealership on Rice and vegetable oil. Though I have always been a business person, but this is a new environment and she is counting on me to make the best out of this investment and I really don't want to let her and myself down. I need to get the necessary information to help me succeed before I start. I see this as a test of my ability and I want to deliver. She is open to other business idea outside the one she had in mind. Pls mod help me push this to the front page to enable me get the advice I urgently need.

This is 5years after you graduated,you should have developed something that will continue to be growing.
Am not judging you, am just telling you to wise up. The best help we can get is the one we offer ourselves.

Hello!!I hope am able to inspire you this morning
How are you there,check today's date and you will see today is 31st of July,2018. On January first 2018, Just like yesterday, we told you to start something,something that would fetch you an extra income, some did,some didn't, but today,those who did are rejoicing, either from a profit they derived from the business or from the lessons they have learnt and the mistake they won't ever do again, such is life. Many failed to take the step due to fear,they don't want to take risk, but its either you take the risk, Win and gain the extra income or Loose and learn something, but if you look at it very well,its still a WIN WIN Game. The year is running to an end now,you can still start something, you can still do something, START TAKING THAT STEP TODAY, KILL THE FEAR.

Everything happening around Saraki only reminds me of one thing: The illusion of fighting corruption and the fear of uncertainty.

Nigeria is a highly populated country that needs expert minds (especially) the president - to run our economy efficiently (which is the chief objective of a wise president).

What happens when the majority of the time used to make decision that would help our nation is channeled into "scavenging". Nigeria is a large country, and our economy cannot be run from "scavenged" resources like recovered remnants of, for instance, Saraki's loot.

what has this Tom and Jerry chase achieved for the citizens in the almost 4 years now. Seriously, ask yourself and you'll see the elephant in the room.

Look at the countries we so much admire, do you see the 10 fingers of the executive, and theirs alone all over corruption cases?
These countries do not have acting chairmen for their anti-graft agencies/organizations. They are, to a degree, independent.

All I see in the fight of corruption in Nigeria is the Federal Government losing cases to the 'corrupt'. SMH.

2019 is at the coner, We must overcome the fear of uncertainty, and break out of the illusions. Look for the elephant in the room.

Instead of recycling the people we've already known just because we're afraid of those we don't know lets think rationally.

Nigeria needs Leaders, not politicians.

I've seen leaders emerge from parties that are not PDP of APC. Experienced leaders that I can gamble with! But most importantly, new people that are leaders and understand what it takes to improve a nation.

I'll like to conclude by reminding us to break out of the illusion of fighting corruption and the fear of uncertainty and think outside the box for the first time.

What makes you think a very smart and intelligent president will not fight corruption in a better/smarter way? Yes. Its the fear of uncertainty.

Make we use our heads sharp sharp.

This is my own tiny piece of mind. Make I stop here because if I use all my day write articles, hustle time go finish. And hunger go show me pepper b4 tomorrow.

Bye bye.

You fit continour your hustle now.

I agree op.
