#Let’s Learn How To Earn Money From Facebook
To make money on facebook you need to follow this steps

Step #1: [Create a Facebook profile]
To start implementing this process, I would like to create another Facebook profile [Note: Use a fake facebook female profile]

Why I suggest you not to use your profile because I do want you to be on safer side.

After creating a Facebook profile search some popular groups in facebook like “Join me USA” or search some favorite groups and participate.

After joining the group, start to join in some conversations and comment and please don’t spam by commenting highly.

Soon after joining you are going to receive friend request daily, and it will increase eventually and wait some days or weeks to make minimum 3000 friends in your profile and note that you can accept only 5000 friend requests.

After reaching desired friends, the next step is to make a fan page.

Step #2: [Creating a Page by Choosing a Niche]
Niche is nothing but service or product that occupies a special area of demand.

You can be any niche you want to promote it may be some products like weight loss formula, air cooler, Beauty products, etc.

After choosing a niche, the next step is to create a Facebook page on the topic or niche you are selected.
Design beautiful page by selecting a proper picture and background.

Step #3: [Invite Friends to like your page]
After creating an excellent Facebook page based on your niche, it’s time to get likes to gain popularity.
Here is the best method to invite all your friends to like the page.

To do this, all you need is Chrome browser and extension
http://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/invite-all-friends-on-fac/inmmhkeajgflmokoaaoadgkhhmibjbpj?hl=en

Install this extension and follow the steps as it says.

And after inviting all your friends to like the page, it takes some time to get likes to the page. So wait for some days and Once you have a minimum of 1000-1500 likes of your page it’s time to make money on facebook with that page.

Step #4: [Creating affiliate account]
An affiliate account is required to promote your products by placing the links in the page or posting the links to the groups.

Top affiliate websites are Amazon,eBay and Clickbank and these are trustworthy sites.

So join in any of these websites as an affiliate.

How to join as an affiliate?

How to find the products in affiliate site?

Please read this article about creating an affiliate account in amazon.com

Step #5: [Joining Same niche Groups]
It is the final step to make some big money on Facebook, and this is the method where you can bring a huge lot of traffic from several groups to your Facebook page.

It’s hard to find several groups by the same niche and why it is the toughest part is that you don’t know how many groups exists with the same niche and which is popular amongst them and for this method you need at least 100+ groups with high active members.

To solve this problem or to make this thing as much as easier a cute software called Ninja Blaster which is the

Top most paid app used by Facebook advertisers to bring sales using this tool.

Ninja Blaster is the best tool I have ever used, and the tool got many features like group posting, group joining.

During a Harvard commencement speech, Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling outlined the importance and value of failure.[1] Why? Simply because she was once a failure too.
A few short years after her graduation from college, her worst nightmares were realized. In her words,
Quote:
“I had failed on an epic scale. An exceptionally short-lived marriage had imploded, and I was jobless, a lone parent, and as poor as it is possible to be in modern Britain, without being homeless. The fears that my parents had had for me, and that I had had for myself, had both come to pass, and by every usual standard, I was the biggest failure I knew.”

Coming out of this failure stronger and more determined was the key to her success.

2. Steve Jobs
The now revolutionary Apple started off with two men in a garage. Years later we all know it as a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees.
Yet, almost unbelievably, Steve Jobs was fired from the very company he began.
The dismissal made him realize that his passion for his work exceeded the disappointment of failure. Further ventures such as NeXT and Pixar eventually led Jobs back to the CEO position at Apple. Jobs said in 2005:

Quote:
“I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me.”

Lost your job today? Keep kicking and you could be just like this guy!

3. Bill Gates
Bill Gates was a Harvard dropout. He co-owned a business called Traf-O-Data, which was a true failure.[2] However, skill and a passion for computer programming turned this failure into the pioneer of famous software company Microsoft, and the then 31-year-old into the world’s youngest self-made billionaire.
In his own words:

Quote:
“It’s fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.”

This isn’t to say that dropping out of Harvard will make you into a billionaire, but maybe that shiny degree isn’t worth as much as the drive and passion to succeed.

4. Albert Einstein
The word ‘Einstein’ is associated with intelligence and synonymous with genius. Yet it is a famous fact that the pioneer of the theory of general relativity, Albert Einstein himself, could not speak fluently until the age of nine. His rebellious nature led to expulsion from school, and he was refused admittance to the Zurich Polytechnic School.
His earlier setbacks did not stop him from winning the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921. After all, he believed that:

Quote:
“Success is failure in progress.”

To this day, his research has influenced various aspects of life including culture, religion, art, and even late night TV.
Just because you haven’t achieved anything great yet, doesn’t mean you can’t be an Einstein yourself.

5. Abraham Lincoln

Failing in business in 1831, suffering a nervous breakdown in 1836, defeated in his run for president in 1856, Abraham Lincoln was no stranger to rejection and failure. Rather than taking these signs as a motivation for surrender, he refused to stop trying his best.
In this great man’s words:

Quote:
“My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.”

Lincoln was elected in 1861 as the 16th President of the United States of America.
The amount of rejection you receive is not a defining factor. Success is still within your reach.

6. Michael Jordan

Quote:
“I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”

This quote by retired basketball legend Michael Jordan in a Nike advertisement speaks for itself.
It would be an easy misconception that Jordan’s basketball skills revolve around natural talent. In fact, in his earlier years, basketball coaches had trouble looking past the fact that Jordan didn’t reach the minimum height. It was years of effort, practice, and failure that made the star we know today.

7. Steven Spielberg
Regarded as one of the most influential filmmakers of all time, Steven Spielberg is a familiar household name. It is surprising to realize therefore that the genius behind Jaws and E.T. had poor grades in high school, getting him rejected from the University of Southern California three times.
While he was in college, he caught the eye of executives at Universal, who signed him as a television director in 1969. This meant that he would not finish his college degree for another 33 years.

Perseverance and acceptance of failure is the key to success, after all.

Quote:
“Even though I get older, what I do never gets old, and that’s what I think keeps me hungry.”

Bad grades in high school aside, there is no questioning the genius involved.
To date, Spielberg has directed 51 films and has been awarded three Oscars.

8. Walt Disney
Mickey Mouse creator Walt Disney dropped out of school at a young age in a failed attempt at joining the army.[3] One of his earlier ventures, Laugh-o-Gram Studios, went bankrupt due to his lack of ability to run a successful business. He was once fired from a Missouri newspaper for “not being creative enough.”
Yet today, The genius behind Disney studios is responsible for generations of childhood memories and dreams. From Snow White to Frozen, Disney will continue to entertain the world for generations to come.
The logic behind this is simple:

Quote:
“We don’t look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious… and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”

9. Vincent Van Gogh
During his lifetime, Vincent Van Gogh suffered mental illness, failed relationships, and committed suicide at the age of 37.
He only ever sold one painting in his life, pinning him a failure as an artist. However that did not put a damper on his enthusiasm and passion for art.
He would never know that years and years after his death he would become known as a key figure in the world of post-impressionism, and ultimately, one of the greatest artist that ever lived.

He would never know that he became a hot topic in art classes and his image was going to be used in TV, books and other forms of popular culture.
In the words of this great, but tragic man:

Quote:
“If you hear a voice within you say ‘you cannot paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.”

10. Stephen King

Ten years ago today, Bitcoin was born. A mysterious person going by the fictitious name Satoshi Nakamoto released a paper, saying how his new money would work. It was meant to be a global, digital currency that governments and banks couldn’t interfere with.

So, a decade on, who uses it to trade? And why is Bitcoin itself – which started trading at 30 cents apiece – nowadays worth thousands of dollars?

Software that mimics human society is being tested to see if it can help prevent religious violence.

Researchers used artificial intelligence algorithms to simulate actions driven by sectarian divisions.

Their model contains thousands of agents representing different ethnicities, races and religions.

Norway and Slovakia are trialling the tech to tackle tensions that can arise when Muslim immigrants settle in historically Christian countries.

The Oxford University researchers hope their system can be used to help governments respond to incidents, such as the recent London terror attacks.

However, one independent expert said that the tool needed more work before it could be used in real-life situations.

“This could be an extremely useful research project when it reaches maturity as a thought tool for analysing factors involved in religious conflict,” said Prof Noel Sharkey.
Core beliefs

The research, published in the Journal for Artificial Societies and Social Stimulation, indicates people are a peaceful species by nature.

Even in times of crisis, such as natural disasters, the simulated humans came together peacefully.

But in some situations the program indicated people were willing to endorse violence.

Examples included occasions when other groups of people challenged the core beliefs that defined their identity.
The research team drew on the Northern Ireland Troubles to programme conditions that saw what the researchers call “xenophobic social anxiety” escalate into extreme physical violence.

The conflict – which involved political and cultural factors in addition to religion – spanned three decades and claimed the lives of approximately 3,500 people.
Primal fears

The computer model also used scenarios based on the 2002 Gujarat riots in India. Two thousand people died during three days of inter-communal violence between Hindus and Muslims.

Research author Justin Lane said: “To use AI to study religion or culture, we have to look at modelling human psychology because our psychology is the foundation for religion and culture.

“The root causes of things like religious violence rest in how our minds process the information that our world presents.”

The results suggest the risk of religious conflict escalates when a group’s core beliefs or sacred values are challenged so frequently that they overwhelm people’s ability to deal with them. But even then, anxiety only spills over into violence in about 20% of the scenarios modelled.

“Religious violence is not our default behaviour – in fact it is pretty rare in our history,” said Mr Lane.

“It is only when people’s core belief systems are challenged, or they feel that their commitment to their own beliefs is questioned that anxiety and agitations occur.

“We might be able to trick our psychology into accepting others as part of our group when we’d otherwise be triggered toward more primal fears,” he added.
‘Out-group members’

The researchers believe one answer to reducing the risk of religious violence and terrorism is to create situations that stop people seeing outsiders as a threat.

The most risky situations are when the difference in the size of two different religious groups is similar and people encounter “out-group members” more regularly, perceiving them as dangerous.

The encounters need not be face-to-face. It could be that the threat is brought to someone’s attention through conventional and social media.

“We appear to live somewhat in our own information bubbles, but we still receive a lot of information about out-group members and that information appears to trigger our psychology even if there isn’t actually a real person there,” Mr Lane warned.

“Just the idea of a threat can be as powerful as a real threat to elicit a reaction.”

Nowadays, entrepreneurs face a lot of challenges in the highly-competitive world of business. Nigeria has survived difficult times of colonisation which resulted in a lack of entrepreneurial spirit that was suppressed by the British. Fortunately, today entrepreneurs have more resources to learn how to run a business and tackle different problems more effectively. So, let’s take a look at some challenges of entrepreneurship in Nigeria nowadays.
What are the problems confronting entrepreneurship development in Nigeria?

Becoming a successful businessman in Nigeria is not that easy, especially at the beginning. Starting a business is associated with many challenges and difficulties. While some of them are minor, others cause a lot of headaches. To identify the reasons for the business-related problems in Nigeria, one needs to make a journey into the history of entrepreneurship in this country.

As for today’s state of business in Nigeria, entrepreneurship development in Nigeria has never been so high in the history of the country. Nevertheless, despite the increasing need for entrepreneurship, doing business in Nigeria still needs to be improved. One of the crucial problems of entrepreneurship consists is wrong understanding the concept of entrepreneurship.

While some understand it as just starting a business, it should be understood as the process of providing goods and services to people in exchange for money. A businessman is not only a person who acts but thinks. Being an entrepreneur nowadays should involve thinking of new ways of solving problems and creating value. It cannot be imagined without innovation and risk-taking.

The lack of risk-taking might be caused by a complicated history of entrepreneurship in Nigeria. Before Nigeria was colonised, a lot of citizens were traders. Nigerians always had a business mindset and high m0ral standards of doing business. Though, when the colonial era began, British colonial masters were those who had more rights than Nigerians. A lot of companies were established by the colonizers, and a lot of young people were employed by these firms. There was a hugely important disadvantage of this quasi-development. Many Nigerians were joining the labour force so their entrepreneurial mindset was fading away.Nowadays, entrepreneurs face a lot of challenges in the highly-competitive world of business.

The challenges of entrepreneurship in Nigeria

Today, a lot of attention is paid to the development of entrepreneurship in Nigeria, and many resources are spent on improving entrepreneurship in this country. The entrepreneurs in Nigeria are facing a lot of challenges. Let’s take a closer look at the major problems that have been affecting the development of entrepreneurship in this country.
1. Lack of capital

This challenge is one of the main reasons why entrepreneurship in Nigeria hasn’t improved over many years. A lot of startups fail because of the lack of investment. That’s why thousands of incredible ideas couldn’t be implemented. The lack of capital can be caused by two reasons: insufficient potential or innovation or entrepreneur’s uncertainty and fear to promote the business.

As a beginner, an entrepreneur wants to get his business running, but not so many people are willing to invest their money in an untested or unpractical idea. A business must show that it can be profitable with no funding as investors do not want to risk their money. Alternatively, they need to see that the business idea is 100 percent practical. It should be new and fill the gap or need in the particular market niche.

Also, the businessman must show that he is able to manage the resources he already possesses. Besides, every businessman must be talented at making money from “nothing” that is using different possibilities for his own goal.

When it comes to starting a business the most important thing perhaps is that entrepreneur himself could be confident in the idea he finds innovative.

But what is the best way to raise money for the business startup? Basically, you can either rely on your own or others’ financial potential, that uses your own personal savings, ask for money from your family and friends or find people who would like to invest in your business. Another way is to find people who could become your partners and invest their money in your business idea that they find interesting as well.

When talking about the external channels, the possible options are bank loans and angel investors. As you can see, there are many channels to raise money for a startup, but lack of capital remains a challenge for Nigerian businessmen.

Here is the possible solution for those who do not wish to rely on the external sources of investment. If you want to start your business with little or no capital, you can choose the self-fueled growth model that implies funding your own business endeavors. Start with marketing and advertising. You might agree that business to a great extent depends on how much the customers are familiar with it, especially in this hustling world. You can cut your expenses on the labour force, rent, equipment, innovative solutions but the advertisement is a must.

The alternative way is riskier. If you find your idea innovative enough, you can develop it until you will be ready to present it to the world. If you already run a business, you can experiment with it a lot. If you don’t have enough in the budget to market your company to its full potential, you can prioritize your marketing efforts with maximum efficiency.

It takes a lot of experience and time to find out where the money actually works. Look closer what areas can be cut so that some funds could be freed up. Sometimes funding is not what the business actually needs. There may be a lot of things every businessman could improve to make the enterprise more profitable and efficient. Think of your new and current customers and how to be remarkable to them. It depends on the advertisement as well as the quality of the product or service. Also, it is essential not to sacrifice quality for saving money on the current expenses as well.

2. Difficulties in getting loans

While the problem number one of most Nigerian people in business is the lack of capital, the second challenge they face is related to securing loans from financial institutions. Many potential Nigerian entrepreneurs go through many difficulties when trying to get a loan for their business.

When Nigerians turn to banks to fund their business idea, they understand that getting a loan is not as easy as it might seem to be. The thing is banks and other financial institutions do not wish to risk lending money to businessmen who don’t have any experience in running a business. The banks are more loyal to those who already have at least a small business. There are higher chances that the loan will be paid back.

Another reason why securing a loan is so difficult is the requirements needed for securing this loans. Banks ask for high-interest rates so that small business owners or start-ups cannot afford. It sometimes works like a filter that defines which ideas are not practical, but most often high-interest rates simply discourage Nigerian businesspersons.
3. Poor state of infrastructure

Someone living in the developed countries of Europe or America might be surprised, but the lack of good infrastructural facilities is a serious problem affecting the development of businesses in Nigeria. The state of infrastructure in Nigeria is just destitute. The infrastructure challenge is faced by all the entrepreneurs, especially those who work in the agricultural or industrial sectors. The unstable power supply and poor transportation system have forced a lot of businesses to close down. To run the business, most entrepreneurs need to use generators and spend a lot of money on buying the fueling generators and on fuel to run them.

Sometimes businesses do not even get up to 5 hours of electricity in a day, and some companies introduced night shifts as power often comes on at night. The insufficient supply of electricity has negatively affected many businesses. The truth is that many businesses have even moved from Nigeria to other countries due to electricity problems.

Lack of good roads and railways is the second infrastructural challenge affecting entrepreneurship in Nigeria. As many entrepreneurs need to move raw materials and final products to the customers living in different cities, means of transportation are a kind of must-have for every developing country. This is one of the challenges facing entrepreneurship in Nigeria that the government is trying to solve.

The outcome of these problems is increased production cost which makes the products noncompetitive. Such economic challenges definitely belong to the Nigerian government’s things to do to promote successful entrepreneurship.
4. Unstable Nigerian economy and politics

The state of the Nigerian economy and politics is another serious challenge for entrepreneurs. The state of the country plays an essential role in any country’s development. All the socio-economic problems and political instability don’t help in the successful development of businesses. Moreover, any economic or political instability kills businesses.

5. Inconsistent government policies

There is a problem with continuity in Nigerian government policies. In general, the existing policies are not good enough to create the necessary conditions for the development of businesses in Nigeria. The entrepreneurs need more freedom and flexibility for running their businesses. The challenges start at the beginning. Entrepreneurs usually need to wait 30 days to register a business with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC). When it comes to registering with NAFDAC, or accessing funding from the Bank of Industry (BOI), it gets even more complicated.

While businesses are going on somehow, the government is trying to do its part. Nigerian government does not forbid the businessmen to speak out and share their experiences. This way the government knows what challenges entrepreneurs face and what could be the possible solutions to the arising problems.

One problem the Nigerian government has recognized is insufficient industrialization and cultivating the entrepreneurial culture. To solve this problem, the Nigerian Investing Commission (NIC) has introduced a policy that requires university students regardless of their area of study to take courses in entrepreneurship to promote entrepreneurship in Nigeria.

Another serious challenge faced by many Nigerian entrepreneurs is multiple taxations. While businessmen are responsible for funding the government through paying taxes, in Nigeria entrepreneurs are charged too many taxes which negatively affects the businesses. While Nigeria’s Companies Income Tax Act (CITA) has approved only 39 taxes, over 500 various taxes are imposed by local governments that are in most cases duplicated and not lawful.
6. Poor knowledge on how to run a business

Sometimes the success of the business depends not on the government politics, economic problems or insufficient capital but on the lack of the entrepreneur’s experience and knowledge on how to be a successful businessman. While some people have a chance to take entrepreneurship courses, many start a new business from scratch with no economic background.

Those who venture into any kind of enterprises, do not always know how to manage and grow a business properly. They need to learn to get relevant and adequate information about management and marketing. What is needed is sufficient problem-solving skills in case problems arise. Every entrepreneur faces a challenge of getting familiar with high-tech trends that are especially hard to embrace in the modern business environment.6. Poor knowledge on how to run a business

7. Marketing strategy challenge

Many businessmen face this challenge which consists of the knowledge on how to market products and services: print, online, mobile, advertising, etc. Businessmen want to maximize their return on investment with efficient, targeted marketing that results in increased profits. This challenge depends on the economic state of the country. With no appropriate knowledge about the most effective marketing strategies, most Nigerian entrepreneurs are trying to save money and cut their spendings on basic needs. The solution to this challenge is to investigate the market and produce only those products and services that are currently or in demand or all time high-in-demand commodities.

Advertising is also helpful though if the quality of the product is not high enough, people will not be interested in this product. Businessmen should be adapted to creating marketing plans. Another way to get a marketing plan is by outsourcing the marketing strategy to professional. It is important to find out what marketing activities are effective in motivating purchases. The business might need to know what is your budget to craft a good business plan. If businessmen do not make a business plan, they usually get stuck, that’s why the business fails. It is advisable to imagine what you will achieve in 5, 10 years or more.

A lot of entrepreneurs choose the wrong path that leads to business failure. Being a businessman means being a good manager of finances. This is the main reason why many businesses start, run for a while, and fail. The solution is to manage cash effectively by limiting diverting funds from the business to the unprofitable liabilities.
8. Lack of patience

A lot of businessmen who just started a business expect to make money quickly. The statistics show that if the entrepreneur is more money oriented his efforts to gain a fortune quickly will not succeed.

It’s true that people mostly go into business for money but if they need to have enough patience to grow a business to fully realize its potential. Investors who want to get the quick returns, lose their patience. Sometimes they lack entrepreneurial mindset which might be considered a result of the post-colonial mentality. When many Nigerians were taught to be in the labour force and not to be entrepreneurs, they forgot that being an entrepreneur in Nigeria means to face many problems and challenge.

Have you ever wondered what the consequences of corruption are for Nigeria and its people? If so, you will find this article very useful, as we will be talking about corruption in Nigeria and how it affects the common man, the society as a whole and the country’s economy.

When we talk about countries with the highest levels of corruption, Nigeria is among the top 50 most corrupt countries in the world. Of course, this fact has had its effect on Nigerians, and we are here to tell you about it in more detail.

There are at least 15 negative effects of corruption on a country’s life, which we have divided into effects on people, society and economy. So let’s find out what it does to a nation.
Corruption disadvantages for the people
Lack of quality in services. When there is corruption present in a country, quality services are often hidden behind an additional payment.
Lack of proper justice. Similarly to the situation with services, the judiciary system also seems to work on ‘extra donations’. Unless you pay those who decide the faith of people, there is little chance that your case will be solved. On the other hand, if you bribe someone, you can get out of even the most solid accusations scot-free.
Poor quality of education. When you can get out of an exam with a simple bribe, your degree will mean nothing in the end, as you would not have learned enough about your craft to practice it. It is terrifying to think that some of the people who have the power to change your life for the better or worse have paid for their exams.

Poor hygiene and health. This is a common effect of corruption, as countries that suffer from it tend to have issues with infrastructure and sanitation. The money that could have gone to improve the situation with fresh drinking water, quality food supply, proper roads and many other important things usually go into someone’s pocket, and the common man is the one that feels the brunt of it.
Pollution. When there is corruption, it is easy to slip some things by the officials that might actually be very harmful to the environment. For instance, if you bribe inspectors that check if your car/factory/farm emits pollutants within the accepted levels, they will turn a blind eye even if it is incredibly harmful to people and environment.
Accidents. We all know that some of the people we see on the roads driving have not gotten their driver’s licences the right way. Instead, they bought them in order to save themselves the hassle. However, instead of that, they have only put others at risk, as there is no guarantee if a person with a ‘purchased’ licence even knows how to drive.
Lack of genuine research. If there were no corruption, we probably would have had the cure for cancer by now. But because corruption still exists, money dedicated to research often goes past researchers and straight into the pockets of others. Thus, we are stuck in the same spot because researchers lack proper funding to continue their work.
