Do you mind if I source market for your produce? Then we can discuss any otherthing later.

Stewart883:
Hello can you link me to buyers of various farm produce?? I have a very very big farm and I produce cassava tubers,yam, potatoes etc

I have DM you but to no avail. I also don't have your contact since you asked me to call you.

RiyadhGoddess:
Like seriously you studied communication in school and yet no job?
Please enrol in any of these brand communication /advertising school, get trained and land yourself a very high paying job.
In fact call me if you can...


Safariboy call me asap

Thanks. I've also tried Quora out.

Coldie:
Like I said the only thing limiting me right now is my msc I got admitted to study in the UK, so we are work in progress of the admission, so most of my funds are tied there.

Since I finished from uniport I have not worked before I don't know how people do it, like u apply for a job they call u and u go to the interview, I have applied for jobs but was never called so I stopped wasting my time.

I read alot on quora entrepreneurship section, nairaland is helpful but quora is a place where people from developed countries share ideas.

I have tried to raise businesses, and am still trying to raise more, I have 2 supermarket, laundry shops, barbershops, photo studio, cyber cafe, bet shop, a bar/lounge and I intend to go into farming.

The major reason I haven't been able to get a job is maybe cause I came out with a 2.2 that's y am going for a master's degree.

The business idea I got I believe it would put me in a fast lane to at least achieve sth worthy in this life and am putting all research into it.

I intend to sell it or partner with a fintech company if they don't buy the idea I would start it myself.

For all who suggest business, capital is vital. I'm open to ways to source fund because right now, I'm not worth much. I'm not kind of trying to be lazy or turn corporate begger. I can go the way of loans with better payback conditions. And if you want to assist too. Self employment is the way now.

Informative. Yes, it is. But after I get this info many things pop through my narrow mind e.g capital. Or what do you suggest I do after the data bank?

ASPIREX:
This is quite instructive.

No skill!

No experience!

No Capital!

Still not bad though. At least you have a beautifully decorated conqueror paper that parades your accomishment after 4 years.

The only thing you need now is CONFIDENCE. You need loads of confidence and you must be willing to do things differently from before.

My take;
Identify and make a detailed list of retail outlets in your neighbourhood; Provision shops, Aboki kiosks, micro supermarkets etc.

Visit them and observe closely what items people are spending money on most. This is very important.

Strike up a conversation with the shopkeeper (for a communicator this should be beans).
Get them to trust you.

In your COMMUNICATION guide them gently into sharing with you the fastest moving products on their shelves.

I am sure you get the drift.

Do you think this is workable for you?

Okay. Do you mind to start here? chriskris8881@gmail.com. Thanks.

lordess:
You're welcome - a million times

You will get clear direction and start getting results

...it is all about results man. No stories.

And yeah, they are affordable.

Okay. May I DM you for further clarification and how to start?

RiyadhGoddess:
It's affordable and worth investing on

Thanks for that information. I'll try any one out onec I'm better informed.

Commentor:
Learn a skill.

The fact that one is a university graduate shouldn't prevent him/her from being a Baker, chef, software engineer, fish farmer or even shoemaker.

Most Nigerian graduates have been conned by white collar dreams.

Amen. Thanks a lot.

ujunwa64:
God will help you ��

Thanks for your concern.

Coldie:
Remove Calabar from that list though. Rivers State and Delta have more potentials than Calabar. There isn't much money there, except u intend on investing on stay have no interest on focusing on just the Calabar market

Lucky you once more. I was also an entrepreneur from my early 20s but false hope that our education system give to us made me not to give full attention to some of those ventures I ventured into then. All the same I appreciate your contribution. Continue to progress as much as life permits you.

You have a strong point. Thabks.

mexicocity:
Guy u are funny. Starting a business with which money? Talk more of accommodation. Look brother starting a business is not the problem but with What capital.

I feel your point.Tham

Coldie:
It depends on where he is and Access to capital

Luck you. However, thanks a dozen times. Do you mind sharing how you source fund.

Coldie:
If u have money to spare go to Lagos walk around the city both island and mainland.

Since Lagos is Nigeria's largest market u would think of an idea.

I went to Lagos to get a document from the German embassy and lived a week in a hotel, only walking around Lagos I developed a multi millionaire idea. That I have drawn up, but still making sm finishing touches. By God's grace it would suceed.

I developed an idea that would solve both police problem, stealing and robbery and homelessness in Lagos all at once

Thank a lot.

You are not far from the truth. Thanks a million times.

Bros be very careful of these crypto currency people, 90% of them are scammers, the moment you reach out to them, They will start asking you to pay for one ebook or mentoring. And unless you have a solid business idea with sure return..NEVER TAKE A LOAN.

Goodluck

I appreciate.

NewDelhi:
And there was a boy who thought his case was worse https://www.nairaland.com/6036487/23-years-old-no-idea/16.

In life there are people in worse conditions than you are.

Yes, I agreed I have fault but I'm ready to turn a new leaf by trying out any thing that's affordable.

Thanks for your concern.

Elsueno:
Metvhew...I know your kind, head full of theories, end up putting people into deeper shyt when they are already at edge of depression. ONLY GIVE AN ADVICE on something you HAVE DONE PRACTICALLY. All I see in you is a nigga who wants to depend on a woman while he sits his lazy ass at home

Okay. Thanks.

coolqayy:

I'm not a "Bros" and no lady wants to marry a Liability too.

Thanks a lot.

LizBathory:
the way people open their rotten mouths to scream "do business" as if it's any easier. First of all, will they give him the capital to start one up? as if the current environment of the shithole is conducive for business. mtschew

Thanks a lot.

Gerrard59:
Barbing saloon, bricklaying, carpentry etc., are some of the "skills" people mentioned that young Nigerians should learn in world where Singaporeans, Vietnamese, Thais, Malaysians are getting employed and highly skilled. Worse still, they tell him to start a business, question him for wanting to work for someone (as if this new business of his won't employ people) and one even adviced he should get married?



E no go better for Nigerian politicians.

Yes, they might be right. I'm thinking on this line too. Im feel the time is not there again to start applying for jobs unless I have a sure person who is taking me in. Thanks for your concerns.

tensazangetsu20:
And some idiots are telling him to do business .

Thanks.

LizBathory:
very useless and frustrating country

Thanks a million times.

x123xlolls:

DontBullshitMe:
Go straight into buying and selling. . .

I feel you too.

EVILFOREST:
No one is INSULTING him here.
We are simply and humbly making our submissions known...
We ask why he had to wait for this long..
YEARS lost can't be recovered nor accounted for..
Yes, we know One can be blessed at any time but one has to be prepared for such.
There are so many things one can do.
I have seen GRADUATES take up KeKe Napep as Hired purchase and paid back gradually.
No human not even Ladies will be impressed to hear such story from a man without any disability.
Must he work for people..?
Must he wear TIE to work..?
Must he wear SUITS to work..?
Must he work in an AC OFFICE...?
When he could have learnt a trade even as a graduate. Go to ONITSHA and ABA, you will find Graduates in Shops doing buying and selling.
Are they not putting Food in their Tables..?

Blessed are those that believe. Shame will not be your portion.

Abudu2000:
i know a 34 yo guy who went for nysc so forget that thing. If it wasn't compulsory trust me no one will waste one year going to a dangerous place to stay.

Yes, everything added up. We're in Nigeria. I was able to serve my father land under "a clause."

Evidence1000:
Something does not add up in this your post. You said you're 38 years old and you served your fatherland 6 years ago but we all know that once you're above 30, you can't go for NYSC anymore rather, you'll collect a letter of exemption. Should we then believe you?

Really painful. Well, I can't do other wise. can I do?

jericco1:
38 wow bro that's painful
