Technology Market › Re: Authentic Samsung S5 Bluetooth Mp3 Players As Seen on TV From N17,000(Wholesale) by naijacutee(op): 9:23pm On Feb 17, 2009
Yes, you're right. Retail price is £149 (N32,780) so even with the delivery costs, it's still a good deal for authentic items that won't stop working after one week. You can buy with a friend to share the delivery costs in two, otherwise send an e-mail and I can refer you to a previous wholesale customer in your area from whom you can buy. (You'll be buying at their prices though)

Investment › Re: How Can Accounts And Stock Keeping Be Properly Kept In My Company? Please Advice by naijacutee(f): 11:17am On Feb 17, 2009
For accounting records, try Kashflow. I discovered them at a business convention a couple of years ago and then they were offering their sofware on a free trial though I don't know if it's still on. They are designed for small business owners with no accounting knowledge, and can be used to manage your accounts, invoices and stock. I think you should give them a try : www.kashflow.co.uk
Business › Re: A Good Business Plan; The Components! by naijacutee(mod): 4:25pm On Feb 15, 2009
I have a very good business plan guide/ prototype in word format. .It is very very thorough, so it's quite large, (About 30 pages). But granted, it is one of the best business plan guides I've come across because it is laid out specifically, with proper instructions that make you think of what you are presenting and why you are presenting it. It also makes you think about your marketing strategy and helps you incorporate it into the business plan. It's attached. Hope it helps you.

@ brianromel: Now you're talking!

It's not about the re-payment being interest-free for a certain period. If the selling price is less than the cost price no matter how long your awoof period is, you would still be operating at a loss.

What I advice you start is a service-oriented business. You don't necessarily have to have an office/car/house etc to start something. Where do your interests lie? Do you have any skills/anything you enjoy doing which people might possibly be willing to pay for?

Personally my suggestion is that you start a service which people need. There are so many things out there which you could do, depending on what you're interested in.

- Properties : You don't have to buy a house before going into properties. With what you have, you can partner with/hire a good lawyer, rent a small office, and start up a property advertising website. You could advertise property for rent/for sale and differentiate these by providing photographs of the property (as this seems like what many people want.) In the future, with success, you can start to buy off derelict property, improve and sell.

- You can rent a 2/3 bedroom flat in a commercial area, furnish it with office desks/stationery, internet etc and offer it for rent to new entrepreneurs who want to start their businesses but who don't want to incur huge costs.

- Construction - employing young,able secondary school leavers who are willing to work on a full-time or part-time basis and training them to plaster, paint  houses etc. Provide them with nice company overalls so they have a sense of belonging (lol), get nice, professional vehicles, get a nice website, standardise your prices and put them on the site for all to see.

While there are construction workers etc all over Nigeria, this business will differentiate itself by putting a new face on construction workers, and it also provides an avenue for people who just want their house painted or who want to directly oversee their building projects by themselves without having to hand it over to a contractor who will probably eat half the money. Also, putting the business on the internet will reach the untapped market of those Nigerians who need these services but are restricted due to time/location. Deals could be sorted out with cement/paint suppliers to provide raw material, to even make it more convenient for the consumer. There are so many ways to expand on this/ implement it - You can start with 1 or 2 people, tools, website and a cheap bus for your runnings.

- Agriculture. There are so many things you could do with these but animal husandry seems to have shorter gestation times that planting crops. Crops however, might work if you invest in them - on the side. . .

I have a thousand ideas in my head, but I don't know what you're interested in. I'd be happy to discuss any of them with you if anything catches your fancy. (On this thread, so others can benefit).
Business › Re: I am Planning On Coming Back To Naija, What Biz Can I Invest 10,000 Pounds On? by naijacutee(mod): 2:54pm On Feb 15, 2009
My brother, selling of fast-moving items sounds like a good idea, but I wouldn't advise you to buy laptops/phones on credit o! The repayment options mean that you end up paying at least twice the original prices of the products (No matter how long it takes). Of course, if you are re-selling these things, you have to make a profit. How then do you cover the cost of the items, delivery an dmake a profit on top? The fact that you haven't paid off the full amount means that you are just collecting items on loan, to resell - probably at less than the loaned-for prices. Doesn't sound like a clever business plan to me o!

Crucify him not too early   lipsrsealed

Just a classic example of why Nigeria is backward undecided

Since this sotware guy can use the computer so we can safely assume he is literate, imagine the fate that befalls the 50 something % of Nigerians that cant even use the computer or read and write.

Can you expect this kind of person (software) to make an informed, sound choice of a leader that can make meaninful impact on society? cry cry cry
lol. You beat me to it, bro!!!  grin grin

@ software: Hmm, strange. What do you think the demonic forces would be using the solar lights for, in their demonic world? Abi has NEPA struck in hellfire too (Maybe they have a bad president like us?? lipsrsealed)

I have never listened to this man before, and hence do not know whether the allegations against him are true or now. But Jesus did warn about peculiar, successful "preachers" being abounding in numbers towards the end of time.

Jesus answered: "Watch out that no one deceives you, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people." (Matthew 24: 4,11)

Business › Re: . by naijacutee(mod): 3:43pm On Feb 08, 2009
We should be wary about the sort of people we transact with. Just because they are Chinese doesn't make them honest - afterall, they are the same people who manufacture all the fake items we use. I learnt the hard way - A long time ago I was scammed by Chinese of about $1500.
Business › Re: Kwara Agricultural Project by naijacutee(mod): 3:05pm On Feb 06, 2009
A couple of years on, I wonder how this project has progressed so far. Regardless of my earlier selfish post, I think that the initiative to invite experienced (Let us briefly forget their skin colour) farmers to use their experience towards developing the agricultural output of the state is a good one. Obviously, it would be even better if the government was more ethically conscious and local farmers weren't aren't neglected to make way for the new guys. I am not aware if they have done this but local farmers would stand to benefit from some sort of partnership with the white farmers. Be it initiation sessions, mentoring and general business development sessions once in a while - Isn't it a Yoruba proverb that says "A cord of 3 is not easily broken"?. Also, proper integration of the students into the initiative would be greatly beneficial to the state as a whole - especially in increasing productivity, curbing unemployment etc.   
Business › Re: Sending Money From Uk To Nigeria. by naijacutee(mod): 12:47pm On Feb 06, 2009
Money can easily be sent through any Western Union agent in the UK. However, I believe the recipient in Nigeria would have to go to the bank to collect. Otherwise, there is another company called "Chequepoint which offers much cheaper services that Western Union. They have a number of branches in London. See : http://www.chequepoint.com/riviera/transcheqBranchs.jsp

But again, one would have to pick the funds up from a bank.
Business › Re: Why are Nigerians Yet To Make a Financial/Business Success of the Internet? by naijacutee(mod): 2:55am On Feb 06, 2009
ababoy got it right. Trust is the keyword. In Nigeria, especially with all the 419 scams we hear about, most people are very very quick to immediately come to a negative conclusion when they hear the words "internet" and "money" in the same sentence. We Nigerians, both home and abroad will regard everything we see on the internet - especially when it is business-related, with suspicion and rightly so, as we know what our brothers are capable of. Once we can overcome this trust issue (Only God knows how), then it would be easier for us to harness the power of the internet positively.

I think the "liking easy money" thing is out of the question. People (especially us Nigerians) prefer to transact business with people they know. Hence people that get government contracts are usually people who know someone who know someone, because somehow the trust barrier has been lowered (a little).

It would be better for you to donate your money to charity than to "invest" with them. Everyone has been shouting fraud , fraud, fraud - as no one who has invested with them seems to have seen/heard from them after paying money into their account.

In this day and age in Nigeria, I think it would be highly advisable for you guys not to attempt to buy any property without first going through a certified lawyer. You can find a long list of people offering legal services in Nigeria here : http://www.nigeriagalleria.com/Professional_Services/Legal_Services.html

Otherwise just search Nairaland for a guy whose S/N is "lawyer". (I think he moderates the property section).
