About 69% of Nigeria's entrepreneurs base their biz growth on "hope marketing"

A staggering 22% run their marketing the otherway round (what's app status post, FB post, IG & twitter) make few sales and then give up once sales stops coming

Then they come here to tell you,
I have done "ALL" I'm supposed to do. Nothing is working.

The thing is, Entrepreneurship isn't that easy

It's like a school

You set the exams (goals)

You study (improve your skill)

You take the test (try out what you've learn)

Take the exam (start a small biz)
You wait for the result and continue improving on your enterprenuership skill (especially the selling part)

Remember, I said it like a school?

Here is the part where you pay the school fees

And there are 2ways to pay these fees

Number 1

While trying to improve your skill,
you'll need to do some practicals

By testing out some ideas, new business models and so on

And in most cases, you'll put in some money which you'll end up loosing.
Number 2

Which is the quickest and easiest way avoid all road blocks to get on top of your game is;

Learn & tap into the knowledge of a successful entrepreneur

You either pay an expert with result to teach you or get their course, programs, books, seminars & learn their ways
Simple!

But here is where most people get it wrong, especially the stupidly-broke nigerians

No offence

You see, it nt a bad thing to be broke neither a crime to be stupid

But being STUPIDLY-BROKE is beyond worse

It makes no sense

It's like putting a drop of water every
30 seconds into a basket and expecting a basket filled with water within a minute

It would only take God divine intervention to help such people

They are broke because they're stupid.

These are the people that feels investing $50 to get a life changing information is too much
It not my business anyway.

Truth is, life is give and take

You've got to give in something to get back something.

If you really want to excel in anything you either want to learn from your own experience which is more costlier, (waste time, energy & money)
Or you want to learn from others people's experience which is always the shortcut.

I didn't realise this one thing, until I exhausted all my school fees into a business idea that ended up zero back in 2014

I hope you learn from this.

Peace!
