 Business › Re: What Would You Do If You Were In My Shoes? My "boss" has absconded! by naijacutee(mod): 3:59pm On Feb 10, 2013 |
How unfortunate! I'm guessing you are still working for this man? If so, doing what? Is there any way you can use his premises for your own side business as he has refused to get in touch? I think that is what I will do - use what I have the best I cav to make ends meet. |

Approach the people who fry and ask them where they get their stock, and how the get it. Do they go to the market to haggle prices every week? If so, cav you make it easier for them? Can you bring them plaintains in a truck every week, aand let them select - saving them a trip to the market? Think of doing things a different way, which would be beneficial to yourself and the customers. |

This is not easy, neither is it fast because you cant ust write any book and think it would sell. People need to want your product for you to sell it to them. For them to need it bad enough, it has to be unique, and contain information not in the public domain - otherwise, why pay for it when you can get it for free? For it to be unique, you've got to put some HARD WORK in. We haven't even spoken about marketing yet. Please lets not deceive people. |
| Business › Re: Partnership in business - Your Experiences by naijacutee(mod): 3:17pm On Feb 10, 2013*. Modified: 3:56pm On Feb 10, 2013 |
I did go into partnership once with someone, it didn't work out but I will go into partnership with them again. The guy was a credible person who agreed to partner with me supplying items for resale on his website. The first two purchases went ok, and then one of his customers requested an item on a special order. We got the item, sent to Lagos within the agreed timescale, and then nahco decided to go on a 2-week strike, and hold all goods coming into the country in their warehouses. nahco is the nigerian aviation handling company which holds goods during the customs checking/documentation procedure. Obviously, the customer was not happy, I had paid 100% out of my pocket for the item - having received only 50% payment, the goods were held up by the government for no justifiable reason (along with good of millions other individuals and businesses) so my partner decided to refund the customer from his pocket and keep the goods. He was better off in the end, but these were cirumstances out of our control and I made a net loss on the deal. The reason I will partner with him again is that none of the problems we encountered were of his making, and there was no point in me blaming anyone else but nahco for my losses - the partner in question is a honest, good communicator, but I will partner under different terms. |

PapaBrowne: Sweet words are not an indication of capacity. [/color][/b]This is gospel!! Can I add to that, and say the title "Pastor" is not an indicator of capacity either. In my opinion, it is good for people to get scammed sometimes (provided the price isn't to high), as however much they were scammed of, it is a small price to pay for an education from Mr. experience. An education which would have been otherwise impossible to get. |

[quote author=Sisi_Kill]Lmao!! So sad yet oh so true!!!! I don't think I'll ever understand the all or nothing mentality. Why must there be a loser in a transaction? Why can't we both profit from a business venture? This also applies to everyday buying and selling....you sell someone a fake product at an exorbitant price.....making the buyer lose twice just because you want to make a profit. Why??!!! Nigerians. ....for some unexplainable reason we have convinced ourselves that pulling the wool over someone else's eye = having good business sense. Sad!!![/quote]This is so true, SisiKill! Win-Win isn't good enough for us. We thrive on the perception that the other party suffering a loss (of whatever kind) authenticates our 'win', even if in monetary value, it turns out lower than if we went for a win-win proposition in the first place. lomzy1: I agree with u. But to some extent. Nigerians do not have good reputation when it comes to online business. That's why abt 80% (IMO) of foreigners you intend to do business with online wouldn't want to do business once they know you are a nigerian. Even when you are genuine. Its so annoying and painful.. Our image is dent abroad due to d fraudlent activities of few Nigerians and our leaders don't help matters.. Corruption, looting, mismanagement is all d foreigners hear and see on CNN, BBC etc.You are right. Our bad press doesn't do us any favours, but it seems that our perception to the outside world is the least of our prroblems. We just want quick returns today today, forget tomorrow, forget everything else, I've suffered enough etc etc |

Great piece. But I will argue that there are at least an equal, if not greater number of positive experiences. |

| Agriculture › Re: Egg Distribution Or Pig Farming Which Would You Advice With Reasons by naijacutee(f): 6:47pm On Feb 08, 2013 |
Personally, if I was in your shoes, I would go with egg production because the turnaround time for egg production is much quicker than for pig farming. In the same time it would take to raise a pig and take it to the market to look for customers, you would have probably hatched and sold several rounds of eggs to ready customers. Just my personal preference, others may disagree. 2 Likes |
