This podcast covers the business adventures of Shosho. The ups and downs, the business deals, insights, lessons learnt and detailing my wild ride in business...yee-hah! 🌵🦄🌍
How are Google, Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok, YouTube worth several billions of dollars...yet their services are basically free.🤔 Food for thought which I seek to uncover
Nigeria's economy is cratering. Inflation is skyrocketing while the currency's buying power is crashing. Dollar is almost ₦1500. It just makes sense to invest outside Nigeria's borders. Even Ghana has better prospects than Nigeria. Also considering American, Mexican ,Canadian Campuses and Ghettos. Starting with $100
People are problems. They are prone to envy, jealousy, backstabbing and seek endless ways to frustrate your life.
Business Plans give an inaccurate image of how things will pan out. A business plan most times isn't worth the paper it is printed on. No business plan could have predicted the change brought about by the pandemic or presently the challenges caused by the wars in Ukraine and Palestine. Business plans are an exercise in futility.
So I threw my nets into the waters one more time for catch. And the waters moved. 😅 Yes. I got over 100 enquiries and I was very much impressed. One week and 100 enquiries. Imagine if I kept this running for 1 month. This is my plan for the next 3 months, to sign up 100 clients. I would be able to rake in my first ₦1,000,000 which is ~ $1000 going by today's exchange rate. Let's go.
Been a minute. I'm checking in on the business. Got some good feedback. About to go into the ocean for a big catch.
Most times we release new products and services and are disappointed if nobody embraces it. We desire to have our offerings embraced by all and very widely adopted. But we have to get over such limiting beliefs and expectations. Just get the music out of your soul. Share your gift with the world. In some cases, your genius may not be appreciated while you are still alive like in the cases of Vincent Van Gogh. But you have to trust the process.
I'm frustrated and pissed at my lack of momentum. The goal is there before me but slow attainment of them is driving me nuts. I can't wait again.
The battle for wealth and achievement has commenced. Just as the frame of Winston Churchill during WWII and Volodymyr Zelensky presently during the Russia Ukraine war, I'm in a battle to fight for wealth. All in and out from the Shadows.
I'm back with a bang. I talk about the next phase of my business journey and the next business venture I'm delving into
Lots of stuff has happened since last time. This the update on what happened and what next I can do to make faster progress
How come some businesses are over subscribed while others barely have any customers? What are the reasons behind that? Let's find out
What do you when the prospects you target don't have you as a priority and don't patronize you.
So as I mentioned in my last podcast, I'm divesting from Brainchild and going fully into other more profitable ventures that have higher traction. And I'm going to be experimenting with quite a lot of concepts. The good thing is that I'm fairly anonymous and low in cash (broke) so whatever I do won't have such huge liabilities. Just to try things and see what comes out. Watch this space.😎
Hello guys. It's been a long arduous 10 years plus I've been on this grind with little to nothing to show for it. I can't continue investing time, energy, attention, resources (TEARs) into this again. Once the domain expires I won't resubscribe. I'm done. It won't scale to the level I expect it to. I have to take it behind the barn and shoot it (To borrow the words of Kevin O'leary). It's hard to admit something failed but sometimes one has to face the facts. The numbers don't lie. I would spend the next couple of weeks planning my next venture. Ciao shosho4real@gmail.com
Launched the banner today. Low-key released it on my whatsapp status. A parent has shown interest. Looking for a minimum of 600 sign-ups. One down, 599 to go. Let's do it. Gotta up my PR game via this Maths Competition. Hopefully more parents sign-up their kids. Day 2 ...it can only get better. shosho4real@gmail.com
Hi guys. Today's episode is about my quest for my first 1000 signups to my tutoring service. This is the website I just launched www.brainchild.com.ng. I'm hopeful I can pivot to a higher value service. This is an experiment to see if this service has merit. I'm giving myself 3 months to hit 1000 sign-ups. If not I have to pivot to something else. I'm open to suggestions and ideas from you guys. Feel free to reach me on shosho4real@gmail.com. Would love to hear from you.
Hello folks. Been a while. Been up and about and decided to touch base today. Hope you're doing ok.
My goal as an entrepreneur is to provide value to a million people. Presently I serve two people. My first watershed moment would be for me to hit a million subscribers, customers, clients. And why not? I reside in Nigeria with a population of 200million. Piece of 🍰
