Hello everyone. I just got this bike for 300k.
Mehn it took a lot of savings and delaying gratification since last year.

Initially I intended doing okada, but now I intend to go into dispatch bike business. I am in Akwa Ibom. Please I don't know how to go about it. How do I get that dispatch box? Also is there any registration involved?

Finally how do I get customers?

so,no due diligence, you did no preliminary assignment & you went and invest in to a business you know nothing about.
hmmm...dey play!

Baba calm down... That bike fit run business in many forms...

He can decides to ride it himself
He can give it out in higher purchase
He can do the dispatch biz he intended doing
He can use it for delivery
And so on

It's more insight and how to go about it that he's only asking for

You should have ignored the post when you know you had no positive contributions.

Op, Dispatch Riding will be a better option because okada is banned from most of the areas in Uyo metropolis

Those questions hes asking now should have been asked before now. He ought to have made enquiries about the dispatch something he wanted to do before venturing & buying a motorbike... He made an unsmart move.
You get it now!

This your thinking is why 90% of new businesses fail within the first 1yr.

Someone save a whole N300k and bought a bike before coming to ask questions as regards a line of bike business he intends to just jump into, and you are asking someone to calm down🤦

Dear Op, I have done many business in Nigeria with good planning that still failed, talk more of you that obviously did not do any planning.

You see Ibo's that do apprenticeship for 4yrs to learn a trade are not fools, and that is 90% of them that finish learning their trade succeed.

Guys, there is more to any type/kind of business than capital, just because you have the capital to buy a bike does not mean you can just start bike business.

I will advice you to just lockup that bike for the next 6months and go for apprenticeship.

Best regards.

You have a point, but still dey try calm down, it's better he buys the the bike and then asked about how to use it for business than him holding on to it in the name of making enquiries and then he gradually spends it on daily expenses hereby forfeits the initial plan....

Thanks everyone, I am looking forward to hearing more suggestions. Please keep it coming.

I just need to know how to get customers for the dispatch business. Or I can still fall back to okada

You have a point.
They say money stay in the hands of Asians 5 times longer than the hands of any other race.

I wonder why?
I did a calculations of money that have passed through my hands in the last 5yrs, I nearly faint.🤦

But why is it that every money that comes to us must be spent?

We even do contribution only to pack it and spend.

I can bet you that nobody on the platform that has a savings that is 5yrs old i.e money that he/she save from 5yrs ago.
