I got my biggest wins last year since I became an entrepreneur.
But I also got a lot of rejections.
What I found out is that the more you put yourself out there, the higher your chances for a win.
It’s a numbers game.

I have to come to réalise that most things in life is just a game of numbers.
Want a job - Apply more
Want business opportunities - Apply more (can personally testify to this)
Want more customers -Send more mails (B2B)

I had a lot of issues receiving International payment as an entrepreneur based in Nigeria/Africa .
The best method to receive international payments are;
Without a website
1. Flutterwave
2. Transferwise
3. Paystack
4. Payoneer
5. 2checkout

African accelerators and giving draconian investment agreements. All the red flags in this world- Investment in tranches, Board seat at early stage, all for less than $100K. I feel for founders sha.

Entrepreneur burn out is real. You just get to a point and you are really tired and ask yourself I can't turn back it's late and I can't go forward because how do I get there.
May our hustle pay off.

Funny how I am a Christian, but your words has helped me alot.
Thank you!!!
Don’t take your prayers lightly 👇🏻
Prayer is your connection to God. If you sever that connection, you have lost everything.
I encourage anyone who isn’t doing their salat to start today. Your life will change, I promise you.

“A child that’s being abused by it’s parents doesn’t stop loving it’s parents. It stops loving itself.” It takes their cue – I’m not lovable, so I’ll treat myself that way too.

I started
@AdireLounge
in 2015, in 2017 I knew I needed to start exporting my products. For a business that was bootstrapped this was pretty difficult, little resources, lack of access to the market, visa issues to go for trade shows, or even funding to pay for the booths.

I think I should do a guide on how to sell on Etsy from Africa. Registration, fulfillment, shipment, strategy, receiving payments, and Etsy SEO
Answering individual questions is time-consuming.
Not for free sha 😁
PS: No more free stuff took me 6years to learn all these.

Why are you becoming a Co-founder? Then calling his friends? He will still embarrass her sha.
