UNCONVENTIONAL BUSINESS IDEAS

When Mark Zuckerberg created Facebook, if you had joined at the beginning in 2004-2007, it was super boring. I recall using so many hours to upload the list of my favorite books that I have read (Facebook helped you keep an e-library), family tree, favorite music and favorite movies, etc

TRAIN YOUR SERVICE PROVIDER.

The cost of hiring and replacing persons who do your work from outside is so enormous and inconvenient. Have you ever considered this at all? Your service providers include: - Consultants - Artisans - Printers

BLUES FROM MY BARBER’S SHOP.

My hair grows weekly so I visit the barber shop weekly. Because of my characteristic laziness though, it sometimes takes a fortnight and by then, my head already itches and makes me feel uncomfortable. So I must do the visit latest 10 days apart.

“Coach Sam, You Became Very Scarce”

Some years ago, when we hosted one of SOBCA’s free tasters on Mental Health and Emotional Intelligence at Be Better Centre, Gudu (Abuja), right after the session, I had the privilege of chatting with the Founder of Be Better Centre, Mr. Omagbitse Barrow, and another friend (and former client), (I will omit her name for a purpose).

THE FUNNEL OF PATRIARCHY.

Last week, an architect came to me with a need. She said she is not permitted to market her profession (based on ethics of architecture) but she wishes she can merge her work with human capital development. So she needed a strategy because she was experiencing sickness and depression from just being on her job.

OVER MARKETING

I walked into a barbershop somewhere in Wuse 2 to have a haircut. And it’s also a Spa. While he was doing his thing, he noticed dandruff on a side of my head and asked if I wanted to wash. I said it was fine. After a few minutes, he asked if the fat on my nose should be scrubbed and cleaned. I didn’t answer.

BECOME THE COMPETITION. DO NOT WAIT!!!

Around my estate, there is a UBA ATM Machine. It has been there since I moved into this estate 2 years ago. If my guesses are right, most times than not, the 2 ATMs are always OUT OF SERVICE or TEMPORARILY UNABLE TO DISPENSE CASH. This was the norm. It got to a point when I really did not bother checking the machine anymore.
