to die before hunger kills you. Lol
A friend even once said that the more hunger
wires you, the more you want to explore the
internet to see if there is any free money any
where, hence you keep digging. Lol
Only God knows how much of naira that most
Nigerians particularly the youth spend on Data

too much if there is value addition, especially
making money online.
So, for a start, like all businesses, you may not
make so much money but not too bad to keep
you from being constantly broke and with time
as you grow your reach and study the social
landscape, you can begin to see where exactly
the money lies and how to get it. So, to make
money easily, come online with these 5 things,
I’m gonna mention here.
1.Creativity: According to Torrie Assai,
Creativity is nothing but a mind set free and to
some, it is the act of being intelligent in a funny
way that resonates.
The first big money I got on Facebook that I will
never forget was a N10,000 from an elderly
friend from overseas that I met online. I have
developed flair for captioning pictures in
interesting ways that he has enjoyed it so much
that he tagged me to a picture of a white man
dancing to Yoruba Bata drum one day, and he
wanted me to imagine what could be
happening in the picture…
And I didn’t disappoint him. He laughed so much
and called me immediately to send my account.
And under less than an hour, I got N10,000 that
is almost like salary of some nursery school
teachers in my village without stress.
I appreciated creativity more that day and I
have made lots of other thousands from this
stuff.
Go to Instagram today, there many people
doing hundreds of creative stuffs to make
money. There are people whose only native
dialects will make you to keep watching their
videos and people will start advertising with
them with money because they have got
millions of viewers. I can’t even start mentioning
names here, you all know them.
You can mimic interesting characters like the
Igbo Kastina guy acting like buhari and has
become irresistible to show business makers.
In just 5 years in Nigeria, we have seen all
kinds of interesting young Nigerians becoming
superstars on social Media through creativity..
You can join them too by start searching online
for that thing that you can do better. Lots of
people are on social Media to get entertained,
provide them one and get paid for that.
2.
Skills: A skill is another tool for personal
development that online platform can help you
project in many unimaginable ways. What is
that skill you have, that you are really good at?
Bring it on..
Almost everything sells on the Internet. Trust
me.
I will share personal experience here. Because
of my background, I developed the penchant to
write things that come to my mind and often in
my Yoruba native language, hence I discovered
I can develop a write up, and can also easily
translate English words to Yoruba and vice
versa and I do that often on my social space.
Then, a day came. My younger sister tagged me
to a post on Instagram for an Essay writing
competition on Entrepreneurship as a panacea
for Economic Development in Nigeria.
I decided to give it a trial.. Researched and sent
my entry. Many days after, to my surprise, my
article came first among 150 entries.
I got a call from the company’s Lagos office as
the winner. The price is not so huge, just a
N25,000 cash award and loads of books from
the CEO. I was so happy and couldn’t contain
my joy.
And ever since, I never stopped digging more. I
know there is more online where that is coming
from. I have done so many translation jobs
online from my Facebook friends that earned
md nothing less than N5, 000 for a 2hrs Job and
many more I gave out to friends because of
time constraint on my side.
Writing is one good way to make money online,
just like there are many.. I know friends who
bill people not less than N100,000 for developing
solid business plans.
I have people who coach others to write IELTS
exams and have become gurus.
I have plumbers, drivers, Educated Mechanics,
Massage Therapist, Electricians, home tilers as
friends who make a living mostly from
patronage of their skills from Social Media.
What’s your own excuse? Go get that skill today
and bring them online to make money for
yourself. You can do it too.
3.
Knowledge Sharing: Social Media platforms
are rich places to acquire so much knowledge
for free or almost for a peanut cost. It is the
only place I know where you may have a
surgeon, a Veteran Lawyer, or just any top
professional from any field of human endeavor
giving you free consultancy and advice, for
what you could pay for.
So there is so much respect for expert opinion
on SMedia, and as such, it is very easy to secure
an online business niche for yourself.
You can write books on your field and get huge
money from social space that you may not
have gotten if you are not online, especially if
no one knows you where you live.
But online, if there is sense in your information,
people won’t stop wanting to read and hear
from you. Remember if you don’t have social
Media space to engage people, no one will buy
your knowledge, if you just a nobody.
4.
Create Good Relationship: With online
familiarity people easily break offline barriers,
hence you can do almost anything for just a
random social friend who has suddenly become
part of your social space.
It is much easier to rant online today that your
problem is job finding and the next thing you
hear in your DM is someone asking you if you
don’t mind working in so so place. As such, you
get job, and you make money.
I have seen lots of people using emotional
appeal online to get sympathy and they make
money that they can’t ever make easily offline.
I once rant online one day, that my fone is
messing up my write ups and unsuspectingly, a
lady friend called me a week after and asked
me to send my account because she wished to
replace my phone for me. I couldn’t believe it. I
rejected the offer but she insisted. Sent the
account. And I got a N20,000 transfer hours
later . Unbelievable.
A brother online is doing Christmas give away
on Facebook and selected few friends, and I
didn’t know how he thought of me, and I
became a beneficiary even as a Muslim..
The gift is a sum of N20,000. That’s something in
this hard time, I think.
I can’t but imagine the power of good
relationship on social media.
Become somebody of what by adding value
and wait as rewards follow, including monetary
gains.
5.
Online Business: Bill Gate, the Microsoft
Billionaire said in a popular quote of his that “If
your business is not the internet, then your
business will soon be out of business”. Very
thoughtful quote if you think about it deeply.
Business worldwide today is going digital, hence
everyone must embrace it in other not to be left
behind.
Okada business today is witnessing large
entrance of big investors that is fast pushing the
traditional okada men away in bike hailing.
Online news platforms are fast sending
traditional media houses out of business.
I can’t even imagine when last I bought a
newspaper, yet I read almost every top news
on Nigerian dailies.
Where am I getting at? It’s simple. Bring your
business online.
I asked a friend one day if he is sick to have
gone to get a shop in one corner of a shopping
complex.
He smiled, and said, Elu, shops are far becoming
warehouses and a place to refer customers to,
and not necessarily for display, if you sell a lot
online..
I reasoned with him..
He sells laptops and sometimes sell far better
than those in choice places in town. He has
created many social media platforms for his
laptops sales and get calls every hour for
enquiry, buying and delivery. That’s the power
of the media.
What is your own business?
Honey sales? Push it online, there are people in
hospitals or on sick beds at home who are busy
researching quality honey for natural care, be
available for them..
Is it clothes that you are selling? Bring it on..
Most people on Social Media today don’t want
to be caught with selfies on same clothes twice.
Be available for their social standard and wants,
by displaying on your social accounts pictures of
your good clothes that they may like, so that
while sleeping in your shop inside Akesan
market, someone is also checking out your
display pictures online to see those fabrics that
poke their eyes.
If your business makes 20 stocks sales offline,
the possibility of selling much more on social
Media is higher, don’t dull.
Let me stop here..
