Let’s cut the chase! Marketing a product offline in Nigeria is not an easy task. Worse still, when these are health or supplementary product, the task becomes even harder. But as far as you are in Nigeria, you have to do something to keep body and soul together.
So the question becomes how to you sell a product? Don’t worry, I have few proven tips I have and will love to share with you.

1) Understand your Product:
You should know that this is the paramount thing you should do to get better sales. KNOW THE PRODUCT LIKE YOU KNOW YOUR NAME. Don’t assume you know the product. Know you know the product. Do you know why, the strength you will employ convincing a prospective buyer either offline or online is the same. And your buyer can sense if you lack knowledge about the product

Also, try and keep the explanation simple. Don’t be like ‘Patrick Obahiagbon.’ You are not engaging in a debate.

2). Network. Before you engage in networking, ask yourself these questions:

1. How many people do you want to meet?
2. How many leads do you want to generate?
3. How much of my sales plan to you want to achieve?

Truth be told, not everybody needs your product. Target the people that need your product.

3). Use Social Media. There are multiplicity of them; ranging from facebook, twitter, IG, Whatsapp, Google+, Totalping etc.

4). Write a review of the product. Now this is what most people don’t do. Writing a review about a product and posting it on different sites and social media platform is like keeping the grass fresh and waiting for the animals to come and feed. They come naturally.

Fastizers Food and Confectionery Limited started with its first production of cookies 5 years ago, desiring to cater to its immediate community. This first batch of home-made Fastizers Cookies, produced with less than N1,000, got so much positive feedback it inspired the production of subsequent batches, however still on a small scale from a home-kitchen.
