Well done to all of you that had the courage to start something. Even if it did not work out, you showed courage and determination. Never give up, your time will surely come

FalseProphet1:
The ability to forsee the end of an a business before starting is the major reason why people fail in business, I see more people failing miserably in business because they lack this gift.

This I have seen.

Wrong. Nigeria is not stable for general business . Shops close down in thousands everyday because of stern competition

I invested over 200k in crypto, now my money no even each 10k for all my wallets again.. All the coins din turn 00

Dumped it and started afresh and boom!!!!!!

Just say you were a bad business man and stop using ur non-indigent status as an excuse. No matter your tribe, if you are nice and have a good attitude, people will patronise you, especially Yorubas cos they are not tribalistic. There are Igbos and Hausas flourishing in IB and every other place in the southwest.

Some of you have very bad customer relationship and yet u want people to bring their money to you, it doesn't work that way.

The stuff was a huge failure..
Haven’t recovered yet from the loss but I will in no distant time cause I consider it a “business lesson.”

How did you come about this freelancing?

Hamzaay:
Delivery business. People over here no won pay for jobs ooo and the delivery thing is risky so I have to opt into my long time business freelancing and I am making noting less than $1k in a week for a bad days and $4k in other good weeks.

Haulaging/transport business. The vehicle is always giving issues. Ended up spending close to #2.2 million to repair which included changing the engine to tokunbo, yet no breakthrough. Las las, the vehicle is in mechanic workshop for the past 2 months. What a huge loss!

Forex

Eatery business in Iworoko Ado Ekiti,it was a blunder ��

Forex,crypto & betting ...lost a car I intended to use to start a new life buy uber/bolt to thieves.. God please don't let me die in depression.

Hotel business

At first i chopped money like there was no tommorrow, it a low budget hotel with sales of about 5k per night. Was banking in about 30k per day. It was like blood money for someone who has never made that much money from anything for like the first 6 months.

Mistake 1
About late last year, Nigeria happened and Buhari proved himself to why he was Buhari, inflation and purchasing power, i noticed people who still wanted to bring babes didnt have enough money left like that cos of food inflation etc. Most were now going for short time service which was 1500 naira for 2 hours. And as a man once you are done with what you want to do, your eye go clear till next time konjiii hooks you and you are back again.

So in essence i was cashing in more 1500 naira bookings instead of the 5,000 naira bookings resulting in less income per night

Mistake 2
When i was making crazy money per day, i too was forming big boy dashing people around money and acting like i had money, what people came to the hotel to do, me too i carried people to other expensive hotels to do.

Also i was repairing almost everything in the hotel customers will spoil, anything be painting the same wall over and over again

Meanwhile price of emulsion went from 4k to 12k minimum, i still would be doing renovations non stop

I even wanted to buy diesel generator at one point in time and give customers AC, Rooms that i know they wont still sleep in for less than 5k a night. Thank God i couldnt afford the diesel generator

Mistake 3- Ramadan period
Chai this period for like 2 months was hard ooo, its like everyone was holy and no one wanted to spoil thier fast, but once Ramadan ended, things went back to normal.

Conclusion
Save your money and put your money where your mouth is.

Now im still back but more clever now, I have stopped pointless renovations. And i have started saving my money,

Even now i have started lying to my staff that there is no money for renovations, lol the same people that remit 30k per day room bookings for me every day haha

Also im trying to do a palmwine lounge thing. I have noticed one thing its when people are drunk or tipsy thats when they start wanting to do the obvious.

Lead city university students too that always came to camp at the hotel and be doing party around the night looool

Truck?
Trailer?

If you're not careful transport business can wreck you. Banks won't even give you loan because to them vehicles are "diminishing assets" so it can't be used as collateral. You will just be using money on expenses. At the end of the day when you finally give up, the condition of the vehicles won't even attract reasonable offers so you will be left with nothing
