As a student living and schooling in Nigeria, I can boldly tell you that starting up and running a business solely can prove very difficult. The time frame for these lectures, the nonchalant attitude of the lecturers like we're not supposed to have a life outside of school is insane!

But all these disadvantages shouldn't discourage us because there's still so much we can do yo help our baby business. I'll be giving someone tips on how to create an online business profile and I hope it helps.

  1. GET YOUR BUSINESS IDEA: When choosing this, I always advice for people to select what they have a flair for. There's so much to pick from be it hair, shoes, clothes, photography, cosmetics; just too much to choose from.

  2. FIND A WHOLESALER: This is actually as important because there's competition in whatever you choose to base your business on. Try getting the most reasonable price from the wholesaler so as to make your own profit too 😁

  3. CREATE AN ONLINE BUSINESS PROFILE: This is a crucial part of your business. In fact, this is your business. Most people use Facebook, instagram and other social media platforms. I particularly enjoy the benefits that Instagram provides for business profiles.

  4. DISPLAY YOUR PRODUCTS: Choose pictures that display the services you want to render and post them. It is that easy.

  5. ADVERTISE: Don't forget to put your business out there. You're a student after all. You meet people on a daily basis, don't be ashamed to tell them about your business. A referral is the best thing a business can get! Tell your friends! Put the word out there!

  6. PATIENCE: Please don't expect to start in one day and start making millions. Business takes time, patience and sacrifice. I believe you'll make it but it "might" take a bit of time.

I honestly hope you found this useful!!!

this is the motivation any individual should go after, whether it is creating a brand, product or service, nicely written
