Dear Ajuwaya, Your Service year will be one of the ‘shortest’ one year span you’d experience in your lifetime. How you spend it can make or mar you. I have long desired writing this piece but kept putting it till another day until my recent visit to the Lagos State NYSC Secretariat. I was there to distribute Q and A App flyers, with an intent to make them aware of an App that makes sourcing of Job Test and Professional Exams Questions and Answers seamless. I was taken aback by the attitude of a majority of the Corp members. They lacked a sense of curiosity and behaved as if wearing the NYSC Khaki qualified them as the Grand Commander of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. I must not forget to commend a few who received the flyer, read it and thanked me for the information. In my opinion, your service year is as important as the time you spent acquiring tertiary education. It offers you an opportunity to acquire life skills and the experience you’d need to run your private or future employers business. Do not be like the unwise Corp members who think service year is all about FUN, a time to see movies without any moderation and time to party hard. Primarily, your service year affords you an opportunity to add value to yourself and your host community, particularly your Place of Primary Assignment (PPA). Summarily, it provides you 12 months to figure out your next steps, setting the stage for you to chase your dreams. Find below accounts of individuals that made the most of their Service Year, the names used are not real names. Yusuf, an Electrical Engineering graduate developed interest in coding and spent his service year studying coding and Android App development. He continued learning coding after his service year. His opportunity came when he was shortlisted for an interview with a leading Software development company. He impressed at the interview and got an offer. Today, he is a Senior Software developer with one of Nigeria’s most reputed Software Company. Segun spent his service year promoting Computer Education. He pioneered the first Computer room at his PPA and succeeded in training 40 students on how to use Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel and Internet Browsers. His activities earned him the Local Government Chairman’s Merit Award and a good reputation at his PPA. His NYSC exploits was a great asset to him at Job interviews. The account of how he spent his service year literally blows his interviewers away and makes him seem like the ideal staff they seek. Nneka spent her NYSC year to learn dress making. She also enrolled with a hair making and beauty shop. She now runs her own business as a fashion designer and Beauty consultant. John studied and sat for National Institute of Management exams. He saved some money with which he obtained MSc form from the University of Ibadan. He was able to save for his first Semester tuition from income earned as a private tutor to some of the students at his PPA. All the accounts given above are real life stories. I hope they motivate you to ACT. I am not asking you to tow their path. I am advising you to be intentional about making your Service year Count. Make it one of the best years of your life. Don’t wait until you complete your service year before learning how to prepare a Curriculum Vitae and Cover Letter. Add value by attending relevant Seminars and Workshops. Volunteer to serve at events that will offer you valuable experience. Get involved in Community development projects and sharpen your networking skills. I hope you find this heart to heart advice useful. Permit me to introduce Q and A App, it is specially built for you.

Good opportunity |
RETIREDMUMU:Well... maybe you are busy keeping tabs on other people, without discovering and building on your gifts and talent. The Critical Questions to answer are: 1. What is your talent? 2. What do you do with your time? |
Here is a useful excerpt from an interview between Tony Robbins and Jay Abraham. If you find it insightful, Download Business/Career books from Q and A App. Q and A App is available for download on Google Playstore. TR: Interesting. Let's come back again to the individual now. How does an individual who doesn't own a business optimize or really build a Parthenon, if you will, for their financial life, their business life and for their career? JA: It's very simple -- the moment you believe it's simple. All you have to do is put yourself in the position of your employer. Your employer is as scared as you are. Your employer is a man or woman or a group of investors who have sunk enormous amounts of capital into their businesses and are very eager to see that investment continue to pay out. As soon as you help give them their outcome, they will love you, treasure you and never want you to leave. How do you do that? By identifying greater and more effective ways they can make their enterprise throw off greater profit. They can get more customers from the action. Just doing the same thing I suggest that any business owner do, but do it as a "de facto" business owner. Identify where they are and how you can increase the unit of sale and the frequency of sale and other things you can do with customers or with prospects who are inactive. When you have identified what those are, go to your employer. You'll find that the moment you implement them, they bring such an advantage to your business you may not want to necessarily reveal them to your employer until you effect the right structure. TR: I assume that means economic structure for your added value. JA: That's right. I'm giving you both sides of the transaction in this interview. You go toyour employer and you make them a very simple proposition. You ask them if, on your own time, you are able to identify, organize and implement, in the most conservative manner, processes, mechanisms, and activities that will increase the amount of profitable sales -- what kind of deal you could work out. Make sure they realize that they will augment -- never supplant -- the business' normal activities. They will only bring increased value. TR: You are adding more pillars, not taking away what they're already doing, which they are committed to and believe is the essence of their business. JA: Right. If I can do that for my company, and if the activities make a lot of money, can I get back a dime or a quarter for every dollar I make you? And if that's too rich, can I get back a nickel or a dime? And if that's too rich, can I get back an extra $5,000 every time I make the company "X" dollars for, and this is the key, as long as it keeps working? Would you mind putting it in a simple letter for me, sir or ma'am, as the case may be. The basic premise is presuming that you are going to bring things in. Think of it as a dual value because you can export things, too. Case in point. Certain companies have their manufacturing structure down where they get greater efficiency per hour or per manpower or per hundred square feet. They get less waste. They have greater ways to do things. They have greater tax advantages. You can take those techniques that are being used internally and you can license or sell or rent those to other people. TR: Give us an example. I hope you find above excerpt useful. Download Business/Career books from Q and A App. Q and A App is available for download on Google Playstore. |
Are you business minded and you are reading this post. Find an excerpt of an interview between Tony Robbins and Jay Abraham TR: One of the things you've said in the past is that the major reason businesses fail is that most businesses have one primary way to bring customers in. If something disrupts that -- something external, something in the government, something in the economy, something in the way of a new kind of competitor -- suddenly that business is in trouble -- or it literally goes out of business. JA: That's true. TR: Please describe for us that dynamic and what the solution is. How do we make sure that we have long-term, predictable profit in any business enterprise we're a part of? JA: I want to use two graphic analogies. I believe you build your success foundation on pillars. I'm going to call it the diving board versus the Parthenon analogy. Most businesses I look at (and I shudder to say most of the businesses or the business owners or the professionals listening to this tape) would be built as a diving board. Imagine a diving board with only one post supporting the board -- the board is your foundation, the post is the method or the mechanism you've either consciously or unconsciously depended on to generate all your sales and sustained growth. What is a diving board by nature, what does it do? It goes down. If the one post that you've built your business on either gets saturated or stops being effective, you're in trouble. So, basically my goal for a client or someone attending my seminar is to systematically build their business on multiple pillars that support it. One pillar can be whatever they do now: the next pillar will be another alternative form of selling or of generating business or of lead generating. It can be that one facet of your business is direct selling, another facet telephone marketing, another facet joint ventures or strategic alliances, and still another can be contingency or shared revenue, tri-tip selling with advertising mediums, like radio stations -- and the list goes on and on. TR: So, in other words, if one of those pillars goes out now... JA: It's a nagging inconvenience that may eliminate 10 percent of your business, but it will not debilitate or terminate your ability to exist. I approach every pillar as what I'll call an innovative profit center. You should never do anything that doesn't produce a profitable outcome for you or that doesn't basically dovetail together and reinforce everything else you do. TR: A lot of people reading this right now are thinking "this is fascinating." But you know the truth of the matter is that you can pick all this stuff apart and what's most fascinating is the intensity and passion in which you hit all of them. In other words, you're figuring every single tool and how to maximize. It's back to optimization -- could you describe it again? JA: Optimization in my mind is the process of getting the maximum yield for the maximum duration of time with the minimal investment from everything you do today, in the future -- and this is really interesting -- and from everything you've ever done in the past. From everybody and everything you ever come in contact with. Not just your business -- your current and past employees, your vendors, your current customers, people you don't sell, suppliers, distributive lines, the location you're at -- everything. So, start with that premise. Here's a quick summary of my theory. Until and unless you can form a clear, distinct and accurate picture of your vision for the business, you can't possibly build or fulfill or achieve your dream for that business. And the trick or the secret to building your vision is to master this art of optimization. As I said, optimization is learning how to maximize, not minimize, every asset. Most people I have observed minimize their activities instead of optimizing them. I show them how to change that.

From the above information, it is clear where the confusion is from. Candidates who sat for the exams and not Computer Literate must be behind this. If you are not Computer literate, make a commitment today to enroll for training. |
Consider buying a plot of land in a choice area in Lagos... oh.. You said quick return! Again find below article culled from Josh Kaufman, "The Personal MBA" to help you evaluate the market you choose to invest your money. You can source valuable Business/Career Books from Q and A App. Q and A App is available for downloads on Google Playstore. The Ten Ways to Evaluate a Market provide a back-of-the-napkin method you can use to identify the attractiveness of any potential market. Rate each of the ten factors below on a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 is extremely unattractive and 10 is extremely attractive. When in doubt, be conservative in your estimate: 1.Urgency—How badly do people want or need this right now? (Renting an old movie is typically low urgency; seeing the fi rst showing of a new movie on opening night is high urgency, since it only happens once.) 2.Market Size—How many people are actively purchasing things like this? (The market for underwater basket weaving courses is verysmall; the market for cancer cures is massive.) 3.Pricing Potential—What is the highest price a typical purchaser would be willing to spend for a solution? (Lollipops sell for $0.05;aircraft carriers sell for billions.) 4.Cost of Customer Acquisition—How easy is it to acquire a new customer? On average, how much will it cost to generate a sale, in both money and effort? (Restaurants built on high-traffi c interstate highways spend little to bring in new customers. Government contractors can spend millions landing major procurement deals.) 5.Cost of Value Delivery—How much would it cost to create and deliver the value offered, both in money and effort? (Delivering fi les via the Internet is almost free; inventing a product and building a factory costs millions.) 6.Uniqueness of Off er—How unique is your offer versus competing offerings in the market, and how easy is it for potential competitors to copy you? (There are many hair salons, but very few companies that offer private space travel.) 7.Speed to Market—How quickly can you create something to sell? (You can offer to mow a neighbor’s lawn in minutes; opening a bank can take years.) 8.Up-Front Investment—How much will you have to invest before you’re ready to sell? (To be a housekeeper, all you need is a set of inexpensive cleaning products. To mine for gold, you need millions to purchase land and excavating equipment.) 9.Upsell Potential—Are there related secondary offers that you couldalso present to purchasing customers? (Customers who purchase razors need shaving cream and extra blades as well; buy a Frisbee, and you won’t need another unless you lose it.) 10.Evergreen Potential—Once the initial offer has been created, how much additional work will you have to put into it in order to continue selling? (Business consulting requires ongoing work to get paid;a book can be produced once, then sold over and over as is.) When you’re done with your assessment, add up the score. If the score is 50 or below, move on to another idea—there are better places to invest your energy and resources. If the score is 75 or above, you have a very promising idea—full speed ahead. Anything between 50 and 75 has the potential to pay the bills, but won’t be a home run without a huge investment of energy and resources, so plan accordingly. |
Short time return... I hope you will not also mind losing your money.. dont be into business because of quick returns. The article below, culled from Josh Kaufman, The Personal MBA should guide you in making a decision. You can source valuable Business/Career Books from Q and A App. Q and A App is available for downloads on Google Playstore. Twelve Standard Forms of Value In order to successfully provide value to another person, it must take on a form they’re willing to pay for. Fortunately, there’s no need to reinvent the wheel—Economic Value usually takes on one of twelve standard forms: 1.Product. Create a single tangible item or entity, then sell and deliver it for more than what it cost to make. 2.Service. Provide help or assistance, then charge a fee for the benefi ts rendered. 3.Shared Resource. Create a durable asset that can be used by many people, then charge for access. 4.Subscription. Offer a benefit on an ongoing basis, and charge a recurring fee. 5.Resale. Acquire an asset from a wholesaler, then sell that asset to a retail buyer at a higher price. 6.Lease. Acquire an asset, then allow another person to use that asset for a predefined amount of time in exchange for a fee. 7.Agency. Market and sell an asset or service you don’t own on behalf of a third party, then collect a percentage of the transaction price as a fee. 8.Audience Aggregation. Get the attention of a group of people with certain characteristics, then sell access in the form of advertising to another business looking to reach that audience. 9.Loan. Lend a certain amount of money, then collect payments over a predefined period of time equal to the original loan plus a predefined interest rate. 10.Option. Offer the ability to take a predefined action for a fi xed period of time in exchange for a fee. 11.Insurance. Take on the risk of some specific bad thing happening to the policy holder in exchange for a predefined series of payments,then pay out claims only when the bad thing actually happens. 12.Capital. Purchase an ownership stake in a business, then collect a corresponding portion of the profit as a one-time payout or ongoing dividend. I hope this helps. |
