But, what is the reason for the poor performance?
Well, one guy I contacted said it is a yearly thing and that by January, it will normalize... so, I am really hoping so. My default assumption is their algorithm due to recent changes and launches such as change in their U.I. I am sure they are working on it because this just can't continue.

Shameless GREEDY igbos
An igbo woman just left the position
NA ONLY IBOS QUALIFY FOR THE POSITION?

when Yoruba leaders were shouting about their marginalization in GEJ government,y'all were mocking them ,it's our turn now
Mtooooor

I know most IBOS anger with this government isn't just about buhari but the fact that Yorubas are benefitting from this government more than the IBOS ,they are just jealous of the Yorubas in this government.
We can't be intimidated by the nuisance you people constitute online . NEVER
when you log off, you will face the reality of this government and its wickedness... at least, no b only igbo man dey feel the heat... grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

Go back to your village
That is how bastards like you go on telling indigenes to go back to their village because they have divergent opinion. IF we ask you where you come from in Lagos now, you will go mute. The fact that you are another Yoruba person does not make you a Lagosian. The real Lagosians, the main indigenes, do not event tell people to go back to their village but states grabbers are posturing in self-induced illusion..

How long, from when you emailed and when you got result, did it take? I emailed GTB for my own but they said I should report to the police but still collected my name and the scammer's name, bank details. it has been over 2 weeks now with no response from them.

I don't know what to do. The scammer uses Standard Chartered Bank. You were lucky, IMO.

It's not enough to persuade them when the stakes are high. If the choice is between having political power and the wealth it brings on the one hand, or losing access to this via free and fair elections on the other, a lot of politicians will choose the former even if it means visa ban. They can also still fly to Dubai, Australia, Monaco, the Caribbean, etc

For those who may want to test Facebook ads, unfortunately this is not the right time ooo.

Facebook at the moment is not so good in terms of conversion and its a general problem that everyone is facing now...

As in, it is expensive and abnormal but I am guess it's an algorithm issue which may settle after a while.

I sell mobile phones, iPhones, Samsungs, laptops and accessories.

Some of them won't pick up after leaving my shop, and some would want you to come to their bedroom after you might have agreed at a particular location

I don't know about that niche but yours seems to be way too high.

Can you give ratio? Like if you get 10 leads, how many out of that turn to disappointment?

Also, there is a reason why I don't usually engage in products that is too common that one can substitute with nearby shop. It's to avoid this kind of things.

Hello guys I want you guys to advice me.

I had products to sell to some customers and immediately I arrive at their doorstep they change their minds from buying, Imagine someone that has been calling and disturbing you, but when it's time they cancel their order.

I have seen sellers who accepts payments first before delivery on Instagram and customers aren't worried about seeing products first before payments.
Please how can one thrive in e-commerce?
I don't know the product you are selling but can you give us the reason they stated as why they are not buying it?
Family / Re: What Will You Do If You Have My Kind Of Parents? by TechSkill: 7:17pm On Sep 19, 2020
SecretSpy666:
Greetings Nairalanders,
I want to seek for you peoples opinions regarding my family challenges.

I'm from a broken home. My parents divorced when I was a child of two years. I'm the only child from their union. My father and mother abandoned me and remarried to other spouse each. I passed through hell growing up with relatives who insulted me with all kinds of names and I was treated like a slave to their own children.

Because of public outcry about my dehumanizing treatment, my father came to village and took me to the city. It was from fry pan to fire experience as my father's new wife was maltreating me. At a point, my father asked me to leave his house that since my arrival, he don't have peace with his wife.

I packed to the house of a relative and work in a block industry to help myself. Most times, I slept in a CAC church close to the relative house as the two-room apartment is not enough for his family. My mother never care if I was alive. She never call me nor reply to letter I sent through someone to her. I continued working in the block industry and started a part time programme. I completed the part time programme and did my NYSC and master degree. I got a job with University of Ado Ekiti with the help of a course mate, managing myself now and surprisingly my mother and father started calling me often.

Both of them have 6 children each with their respective second spouse. Mother want his son to come and live with me, I refused and my father too have been requesting for financial assistance which I also refused. I don't want to have anything to do with both of them. My father's daughter recently called me to help her with school fees, I bluntly told her to ask her mother what she did to me and caught the call. Since then, she never call.

I'm alone and have just two friends. I don't have family. All of them calling now are just looking for what to get from me, not that they care about me. My mother never call me once to ask about my welfare even when I sent my phone number to her through her relative. I wrote WAEC, completed degree course before she started calling me and it is only to request for one thing or other. I'm planning to get married without telling them and build a separate family.

I support you 100%

Stop deceiving yourself.

Igbo people in Nigeria do not play national politics.

Just because one igbo was elected does not mean igbo can play politics.

Germany has a large igbo population, it is normal for that man to be elected, the reality is that he is representing igbo and immigrant communities, nothing more.

There are also turkish members of parliament, they also represent Turkish nationals in Germany.

What is politics? I am sure it will be defined based on Nigerian settings and structure... ogbeni go and sleep! undecided

Thanks.

I want to ask, the traffic for the Facebook ads will be sent to the landing page that must have a convincing sales copy to "force" the leads to buy.

Now, my question is, will it be be designed like a sales page where the leads can pay and check out?

Or

I will have to include my WhatsApp number and send them to my WhatsApp from there and sell to them on WhatsApp?

Thanks.

Yes, the landing page must have convincing sales copy that will make them buy...

As for the checkout option, Nigeria is not so advanced to the stage where people pay over the internet before getting their package and the population of those who do that is VERY small.
So, what we usually do is have a form with instruction that tell them to fill their full details (e.g name, address, phone number etc) IF they want to buy.

The information filled will be sent to an email linked to that form and you call them from their phone number .

My call script goes like this
Me: Hello,

I believe I am speaking to mr/mrs xyz

them: yes

Me: Okay, you filled our form for xyz item for so and so

Them: oh, yes.

Me: I am calling to know whether you will around between now and the next 5 days because we are bringing it to you.

Should we proceed and will you be available to pick it up?

Them: Yes (or No in some cases)

Me: Thank you very much and God bless you (tapping the religious psyche of average Nigerian grin grin grin).

END.

the reason why this is important is that from their response, you will be able to gauge those IF they are really serious or just jokers because it won't be good to send an item all the way from your location to somewhere in the North while the person is not interested or not around.

You are going to have some time wasters but overall, the good outweighs the bad..

Also, it is good to strike while the iron is hot, delay can make them change their mind over a period of them.

Thanks.

It's actually a short one.

The name was bought with the intention of selling to end-users outside the .com category. (Because most will likely reply with a response of the extension being use for NON-Profit activities, which is right smiley ).

After purchase, the name was listed on epik.com marketplace.

Then the hunt began.

Many may be familiar with this but let me share..

I decided to search in a sorted way on google by using this command;

Site:.org Insurance Texas (Meaning it will bring only .org organizations with the keywords)

And that was it, I did an outbound to one end user, few minutes later buyer proceed to buy.

And that was it.

All happened in a day! The same day it was listed on epik.com. it sold!

Glory be to God.

4th .org sale this year..

Cheers..

congrats, what are the other .org sold?

Well good luck to him. But when will Nigeria have a young smart educated president and not all this old power rotating leaders

It is because of the cost of election and politics in Nigeria.

Let's assume that we settle for the tyre inflator and we would like to import and sell it.

The next thing to do is contact the sellers, based on prices that you feel is best for you. When you contact sell, you tell him/her that you want to make purchase their product with specifics on quantity.

They will set up a payment link for you to make the payment and you will give them address of your Chinese agent (or shipper), where they will send your product to. It would take about 2-3 days for this process to complete, that is sending the package from seller to your shipper.

When your package gets to your shipper, you will have to choose between express and cargo (due to corona, only cargo shipping is currently considered across all shippers) and they charge per KG.


Once you have decided on the product to sell, you should would need to have a website that you can use for the sales of your product.

To get started, go to Namecheap.com and register a domain name of choice, which will cost around $9/ year

Link here: https://www.namecheap.com/domains/domain-name-search/

Pay for hosting on Namecheap as well to help host the domain name earlier registered.

Namecheap has package called "Stellar" for hosting 3 websites at the cost of $17 for the first year.

Link Here: https://www.namecheap.com/hosting/shared/

With that done, your login details will be sent to your email after you finish hosting payments.

To host your domain name, you simply change the "nameserver" you will find this in the email that namecheap will send to you.

Log into your cPanel (control panel) and install wordpress.

Search online for "instabuilder plugin" and install it. It is with this that you will be doing your works on Landing pages.

After you install the instabuilder, you can the proceed to write your sales copy which will be used to sell you products with a form included on it.
