Photos: Corporate beggers invade Lagos

This one was spotted at Ajah yesterday. There are quite a few of them in Lagos these days. Some of them even wear suits...and come up with different excuses for being stranded on the road and ask for money for transport to go home. The following day, you will find them at a different spot doing the same thing. Not that I don't blame them...the rate of unemployment in this country is alarming.

How to think like a rich person

Simply thinking about becoming wealthy isn’t likely to get you very far, but thinking like the rich is critical if you want to build wealth, says Steve Siebold, who wrote the book How Rich People Think.


Here he shares five key ways the wealthy think differently about money and credit.

1. Leverage Creates Wealth

“On one side of the spectrum is labor, and at the other (end) is leverage,” he says. “The rich employ money to make money. Labor doesn’t pay very well but leverage pays extremely

8 Sure Fire Tips For Business Survival

Most businesses never live long enough to click glasses for their fifth anniversary. Now that’s quite scary, knowing that no business owner starts up thinking the business will fail in a few years. The struggle for the life of your business is real. Don’t let your business be one of these numbers. Here are eight steps to help you swim against the tide, and keep your head above waters in all stormy weather.

Know Your Competition.
Ladies and gentlemen, you’ve got new competition. Your biggest competition is no longer who you think it is. Your biggest competition is the NOISE. Noise is everything else that is struggling for your customer’s attention- picking the kids up from school at 4:00pm, buying a new pack of diapers for Ezinne, the traffic situation in Ajah. These are all knocking at the door, fighting hard to get a place on your customers mind.
You’ve got to punch through the noise to get the customers attention. If you don’t have their attention, they don’t see you. If they don’t see you, they don’t hear you. If they don’t see or hear you, they will not give you their money. Money follows attention. Whoever gets the most attention ends up with the money.

Get Rid Of Obscurity
You need to conquer obscurity. Get in their faces and position yourself as an expert in your field. Obscurity is the state of being unknown, inconspicuous, or unimportant. Your business must not be obscure. Your market will not buy from you if they do not know you or perceive your

Linda Ikeji And M-Kaze Fight Over Money On BBM [SEE PINGS]

 

As a Social Media Marketer, I come across several clients who need to get Nigerian blogs, and news sites to review their products and services, which I never hesitate to direct them to eiher Nairaland or Bella Naija as the most effective websites for getting the highest click-through rates, and most honest comments.

Some clients prefer to get on gossip sites like Naij.com or Linda Ikeji Blog despite my reservations and reasons. Naij was recently made themselves popular for using Russian hackers to redirect Etisalat subscribers to their homepage at some point, and Linda Ikeji is known amongst bloggers for her horde of hired hands, using multiple identities, and devices to post dozens of comments and spark irrelevant arguments, not forgetting her vicious fabrications euphemised as idle gossip.

A Port Harcourt based artiste, M-Kaze, recently consulted with Bar Baric Entertainment for promotional services, for which among several bloggers and micro-bloggers, his label chose Linda Ikeji.
