I was driving into my estate and he opened the gate. Gentleman and easygoing. I stopped to ask his name. “My name is Sam” (not real name), he answered. You’re new? “Yes”, he answered again. Welcome! “Thank you Sir”, he replied. Coincidentally, he was the same person who brought the notice to the estate meeting to my house and I received it myself so I probed a bit more. ‘Did you go to school?’; he answered with ‘I am a graduate of XXXX’. 😳 Graduate?????
Where will the money come from?
Ideas, platforms, services and products are being created day-in, day-out. And most people are afraid of launching them or even sharing them because they don’t know how they will be bankrolled or funded.

Fundamentally, you cannot ACTIVELY serve 1,000 people any given year. In fact, if you look at it critically, you cannot support 200 clients actively in a whole year. When I say ‘active support’, it means ‘marketing them, acquiring them, servicing their needs, and providing maintenance for their requests’.
In 2015 a ‘big girl’ in a StanbicIBTC Bank Lagos wanted to hire me as her coach. She had made concerted efforts to get my attention but because I am based in Abuja, we really did not get a convenient arrangement. At some point, I visited Lagos. As at that time, I had not met Stella (our now COO) and Tunde (our last Director of Programmes).
This morning, SOBCA’s Deputy Faculty Director, Shittu Sulaimon, told me “Coach, it is definitely not easy running a business. How do you guys cope?” 🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣

I haven’t been there in a while. Today, I was invited to a business tête-à-tête over a meal of chicken wings, and water (my choice). While the conversations held sway, my focus was on something totally different. THE IMPROVED PROCESS AT THE JUNKYARD ABUJA.

He was a man I really admired. He was a good man. He wanted everyone around him to flourish and be fine. He looked out for people easily. Provided he knew your challenge, he would go all out to help. He made A LOT of money in his business.
The face-off between MTN and ALL Nigerian Banks is like the Banks saying “YOU ARE BLOCKED ON WHATSAPP”. 🤣🤣😂😂😂
If you have been following the news, you would have heard that the Banks have blocked MTN from all their USSD and Bank App solutions. YOU CANNOT BUY MTN AIRTIME VIA ANY BANK CHANNEL (for now) because MTN is PROTESTING Bank charges.
