Social media influence purchases in different ways. Twitter is popular for product discoveries, Pinterest for additional product information, and Facebook for product sale or purchase alert.
With the above fact, here are 7 business ideas you can start online.
1. Design and sell print-on-demand t-shirts/hats:
T-shirts, hats, phone cases, hoodies, skirts, tote bags, and more become canvases for your creativity.
Even if you’re not a designer, you can find a designer to work with
2. Partner with a dropshipper:
Dropshipping is a fulfillment model where a third party supplier stores and ships inventory to customers on your behalf. You just need to make the sales and pass orders on to your supplier; you don’t need to handle the products yourself.
3. Create digital products or courses:
Digital products like music, courses, and templates are unique on this list of ideas. Unlike the others, they’re not tangible products.
If you’ve got a talent , you can think about packaging it into a new stream of income.

4. Sell a service:
Writers, designers, developers, photographers, house cleaners, fitness trainers, and more can build a business around their skills.
5. Create an online fashion boutique:
If you love fashion and sharing your sense of style online, you can consider creating your own online fashion boutique. You don’t need to become a fashion designer. You can simply curate items from other vendors into your own online store.
6. Sell handcrafted and homemade goods:
If you’re a maker—whether you DIY soap, candles, sauces, or pottery—you’re in a unique position to start an online business since product development and procurement are literally in your hands.
7. Grow an audience you can monetize in multiple ways:
Whether you choose to grow your following on YouTube, Instagram, or a blog (ideally a combination of different channels), you have many avenues for monetizing your audience:
Do sponsored posts on behalf of brands
Become an affiliate
Sell physical or digital products (via any of the ideas on this list)
Patreon

South African has lots of problems and Nigerians are not part of them.
Even if all immigrants leave South Africa, it would not make a difference to socio-economic issues facing the country. And the idea that the country is overrun by immigrants has no data backings.

According to their 2011 census, there were 2.2 million foreigners in South Africa out of 55.9 million ( SA population). That is 5% of the total population. There's no clear evidence that foreigners are flooding their organizations, and misusing their amenities.
Immigrants are not responsible for South Africa’s underemployment rates. According to MiWORC, 85% of the working population are non migrants, 14% are domestic migrants and a low % of international migrants.
There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn to not judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.
-#Thread
The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall. When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen.
The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted.
The second son said no – it was covered with green buds and full of promise.
Once a group of 50 people were attending a seminar. Suddenly the speaker stopped and decided to do a group activity. He started giving each attendee one balloon.
A thread
Each one was asked to write his/her name on it using a marker pen. Then all the balloons were collected and put in another room.
Now these delegates were let into that room and asked to find the balloon which had their name written within 5 minutes. Everyone was frantically searching for their name, colliding with each other, pushing around others and there was utter chaos.

In the eyes of the local chiefs, the RNC pleaded free trade in the region but behind closed doors, they entered private contracts on their own terms and it was difficult for the local chiefs to understand because it was written in English. Yet,
the local chiefs signed it and it was enforced by the British government.
Fast forward from what happened to Jaja of Opobo. Some native rulers tried to keep eyes on the deals they were getting from the RNC. In 1894, the RNC dictatorship increased, thereby denying natives access
