Spendhbd/hive Marketing Efforts In Yaba College Of Technology And Yaba Market Today! In Lagos

in SpendHBD20 days ago (edited)

What a day, an amazing sunny and hectic day.
Recently i and @beauty197 had been planning and re-strategizing on #spenhbd and #hive marketing outreach.

We had planned to go to yabatec and register their eatries and a few shops around and students as well.

Why we chose to register the eateries in the school was because, according to the school rules and regulations, no student is permitted to cook in the hostels, so all students buy and eat food in the private eateries in the school.

So we felt SpendHBD could be a good opportunity to help the students in their feeding expenses.

But unfortunately, we got to the school and found out that they were writing exams, so the school was very roudy and unorganized, we couldn't do much.

Yabatec had just resumed a week ago, so it was so shocking to see that they were already writing exams at few days after resumption.

While contaplaiting on what to do, i captured a moment, when a students phone was stolen in the exam hall, so they decided to search all students outside, the crowd below is a picture of the searching event.

After much contaplations, we decided to visit one of the major eateries in the school (Nasu Canteen)

We got to the Nasu Canteen and unfortunately the crowd in the canteen was uncontrollable.

We tried all we could to speak with the owner or any of the workers, but couldn't due to the crowd in the canteen trying to buy food at the same time.

After much trying without progress, we decided to get outside and re-strategize.

@beauty197 suggested we visit Yaba Market and check out some shops, speak with the shop owners and get their shops listed, then look out for their customers and introduce #SpendHBD and #hive to them at the same time.

So i saw it as a cool suggestion and we headed to Yaba.

We borded a napeb from Yabatec gate bus stop and headed to Yaba market immediately, such a stresful day.

We got to Yaba market in few minutes amd headed to the check out shops.

Before we went down into the market, i had to capture some market events from the top of the bridge.

We saw some cosmetic shops and decided to check them out. So we checked out the first cosmetic shop and the sales rep said the madam wasn't available that we should check back later.

We went to another cosmetic shop and only met 4 sales reps and they said the same thing. They said their boss would be available in the afternoon by 2pm, that we should check back later.

We had to introduce what we have to offer their business to them, but they insisted we come back and speak with the boss.

It was around past 12pm, we couldn't wait till 2pm because we had other engagments to catch up with.

We wanted to go for the marketing from atleast 10am to 12 or 1pm latest.

After much considerations, we had to reschedule for Monday after so we will be able to meet with the CEOs themselves.

So we told them that we will come back on Monday.

We also took a couple of pictures after our much discussions and bargain with our stressed faces.

We got going afterwards to be back on Monday afternoon.

This was how our #SpendHBD and #hive marketing went today, we will continue again on Monday and i trust God it's going to be successful.

Thank you for visiting.
Regards 😘

We actually did a great job today, hopefully we will have at least a business to list by Monday.

Yes oooo, we did a great job, I trust God the Monday will be a success.

Nice marketing efforts. There are alot of students in the college, it will be massive for spendhbd

Yes, just that the students weren't really available, but we go again later

This is so nice

I appreciate these great efforts. So sorry you met them when they are writing exams. I once had such experience and the school I went were on vacation. Dont be discouraged, its a worthwhile effort and I am sure you will come back to meet them at the appropriate time to discuss spendHBD. Kudos

Yes, I'm not going to be discouraged, er go again next week and we keep going till there are results.

Thanks for these kind words of encouragement.
