No, I'm not currently looking for an office space but I know a couple of people who are currently searching, and I believe there are even more people out there who wouldn't mind working from somewhere small until they "make it". (Well, make enough to rent a proper office.) On the other hand, for someone who's struggling to pay their office bills etc, renting out an extra room, or putting up/renting out a couple of desks and chairs to form an open plan office might be helpful in bringing in extra revenue. |

No, I don't have a cybercafe but sucessful businesses run on the same principles. |
| Properties › Do You Have Space For Sale? by naijacutee(op): 1:09pm On Jul 18, 2007 |
I believe this would be useful to a couple of people out there. Some people have an extra room or two in their offices, filled with junk, and wasting away when they could easily rent it out for money. Are you one of such people? |
| Business › Re: Help Needed On Car Wash Business by naijacutee(mod): 12:42pm On Jul 18, 2007 |
Here is a sample business plan which you might want to look at. Soapy Rides will be providing customers with three services: exterior car washing, , interior cleaning, and detailing. Soapy Rides has no true competitors that are trying to offer a high quality service for a reasonable rate. Most are trying to compete on price alone. Soapy Rides' ability to provide a high quality service, both in regards to the actual washing as well as customer service is all based on their ability to find the best employees. Hiring the best employees is cost effective because it decreases HR costs associated with turnover and other employee costs. Hiring the best employees and making sure that they are well taken care of ensures that they in turn take care of the customers. Study after study proves that a happy employee is far more likely to provide the highest level of customer service compared to an employee who is not happy and feels that they are being taken advantage of. The Customers Soapy Rides will target three main groups of customers: individual car owner and leasers, car dealerships, and local businesses. The surrounding area is quite affluent, 40% of the residents earn over $70,000 a year. Consequently, they have nice cars and want them to look nice. There are five different car dealerships within a three-mile radius which will require car washing services for the various fleets. Lastly, there are many different local businesses that have company cars and that require clean appearances. Management The strength of Mark's experience and his family's name equity and assistance is Soapy Rides' competitive edge as well as a significant asset. Mark has been involved in the family's car repair business for the last ten years. He has worked his way through the organization and has been the manager for the last five years overseeing operations of $1.2 million annually. Before the family venture, Mark received his MBA from Cornell University. With 30 years invested in the community, the Deshpande family name has generated significant value as a fair, active member of the community. Lastly, Soapy Rides will be able to leverage several of the Deshpande's for their business expertise. Soapy Rides is positioning itself as the premier hand car wash serving the Long Island area. Mark has forecasted a 20% market share. The business will generate a 95% gross margin and an 11% net margin after year one and 20.79% after year three. By year three the business will have developed a yearly net profit of $48,000 .

When you say you need to improve, in what way do you need to 'improve'? Unless you can identify the problems with your cyber cafe business, you won't be able to make much of an impact. For example, - Are you struggling with the internet service and paying off the bills each month? If so, you might want to consider reviewing your contract with the company, and looking to see if there are any alternatives - and also consider the cost of switching. If you are struggling with lack of customers, then you might want to review actions you can take to attract more customers to your cafe. Maybe you could start a promotion - half price browsing or something. You could put a new billboard and list all the services you render. If you have facilities which allow people to use their own laptops within your premises, for a small fee, then put it out there. If your cafe is air-conditioned, let people know. If people have more privacy and your computers are faster, let them know. You can't "improve" if you don't know what to improve on. Write down a list of problems with your current business and you can share it here. You don't have to give your address. Two heads, they say is better than one. I wish you all the best. 2 Likes |

Please, whatever you do, DO NOT fall for these scams involving people offering you loans. Mr "Nick Jones" is a fraud and will either (a) Ask you for an advance fee which you'll have to WU to Nigeria, Russia, Italy etc after which you'll never hear from him again or (b) Transfer a HUGE sum of money into your account, Stolen money from company accounts. And later ask you to forward a portion to them via Western Union, Guess whose account the company will report to the Police when they discover their money's missing. . . (P.S You won't get out of jail in anything less than 10 years) Please, don't be daft and contact this person!!! 2 Likes |

Why do you want to start a summer camp for kids? If it's just for the money, then I'm afraid you'll struggle. If you have other valid reasons then you may as well be on your way. Why? Because if you get into the mind of your potential customers, I don't think anyone would be willing to sign their kids for a program just because someone wants to "make it quick". . . If you can see what I mean. . . 1 Like |

| Business › Re: Trademark Registration in Nigeria by naijacutee(mod): 1:46pm On Jul 15, 2007 |
Thanks for the enlightenment, Aproko. I'm also a novice to this. In addition, can I ask - If a product is 'trademarked' outside Nigeria. . . In the UK for example, would the trademark be valid in Nigeria? (I can't imagine that Nestle Foods, Coca-Cola, etc all had to apply for trademarks to their name in Nigeria) |

I find the Jamaican and New Zealanders accent totally incomprehensible. I used to find the South African/Zim accent incomprehensible too, until I started sharing house with a Zim 2 weeks ago. . . I enjoy hearing Ghanaians and Indians speak. |

It means literally "to have a drink". Having a drink is a way of socialising (especially in Britain). People usually like to socialise over a pint or two. . . |
