3 Underrated But Lucrative Business That Can Make You Rich

If your parents never asked you to become either a Doctor, Lawyer, Engineer, or Accountant while growing up, then you aren’t a Nigerian.

This has made everyone believe that to become successful, all you need is the following;

Go to school

Become a doctor, accountant, or nurse, etc

Graduate

Get a good job

Become rich and live a good life.

Most of us fell into that trap. We decided to go to school and studied some courses we felt would give us a wonderful job. But along the line, we discovered that we got scammed.

No Job, No Money, No Wealth!

If you want to change your narrative, then read this post well.

I am going to show you some underrated skills that will fetch you wealth. They will make you rich if you just learn and start using the skills for yourself.

And guess what, they are easy and cheaper to learn compared to the money you spent for 5 years in school.

What are the underrated but lucrative skills?

You may never have an idea of how lucrative some of these skills are till you hear from people who are using them to put food on their table.

Graphics Design

Graphic designers don’t want you to know that they make a whole lot of money, so they make you believe that it isn’t lucrative.

The top graphic designers earn more than 300k monthly without working for anybody.

The top gainers of this election period are graphic designers, and you can check it out. It takes thousands of Naira to come up with a single design, and you can handle several projects for several people.

Contracts like;

Rebranding

Logo Design

Brochure design

Banner design

Book cover design

These jobs are so hot in demand that graphic designers keep cashing out thousands of Naira monthly. This is one of the easiest skills to acquire because it is mostly done with the aid of software.

All you need is just your creativity and you can start earning thousands of Naira as you wish. Forget those who will discourage you, I JUST EXPOSED THEIR SECRETS!!!

P.s: Anybody can become a graphics designer… it is one of the easiest skills to acquire. If you want to learn this, I can show you a cheap place where you can learn it practically and start making money from it. [Lagos residents only]

Fashion Designing

I will be straight with you; my fashion designer friend who just started this business makes 150,000 Naira monthly.

Back then we thought that Fashion Designing was for those with no educational qualification – but how many graduates make 150k monthly?

If you have an eye for details, with good creativity and imagination, then you fit into this. Unlike Graphics design which is quite simpler, Fashion designing is for those who can make good use of their hands and brains.

That is the reason it is quite lucrative. The moment you become a known brand, the smoother your way to riches becomes.

Technology Technicians

If there was a better name for this type of skill, I would have used it, but this one makes it quite holistic.

What if I told you that the average guy at the computer village who sells and repair computers and other gadgets make more than the average graduate out there, you might not believe me.

But that is true.

The gadget business is a booming industry in Nigeria already, and every family has about 3 laptops and computers. These devices develop faults along the line, and someone is needed to fix it.

Who would that be?

The make on the average about 6,000 Naira daily, so you can do the calculation yourself.

I may not recommend this skill for those who are not too technical. But if you are, then this is a good opportunity for you to start making money.

Above all, for those who want to learn something simple and yet lucrative, I think Graphics design is the best option for you.

Never underestimate most of these skills again. Till we meet again with another exciting post, go out there and learn one of these skills as fast as possible!!!

10 Profitable Business Ideas For Students In Nigeria

 

Being a student in Nigeria is not cheap.
You have to pay for books and handouts, make photocopies, pay for transportation, accommodation and feeding as well as a whole lot of other expenses.

Considering the fact that most Nigerian parents are within the middle and low income bracket, it is doubtful that students would be able to get everything they need to survive in school from home.

But instead of engaging in practices that may jeopardize your future, why not look for a business that you can do on the side; one that would not interfere with your academics but would provide you with a lot of extra money to take care of your needs in school and even save something for when you graduate.

Here are 10 great business ideas which you can consider doing while in school;

1. Tutoring
Many parents who work full-time require the services of expert tutors who can help their kids with difficult subjects at school and also help them with their home work while they at work.

There are two ways through which you can handle tutoring as a student. The first way is to do it online. There are many websites that you can register on to become an online tutor and make money during your spare time at school. The other way is to search for parents that you can advertise your services to, so that you can schedule a time to visit their homes and teach their kids.

2. Sports training
If there are any particular sports you are good at, you can think of becoming a sports trainer. I remember that when I was in the university we used to have fitness clubs organized by students and to join such clubs, you had to pay a token as membership fees. The organizers made sizable amounts of money for themselves doing this alone.

3. Graphic design
Graphic design is huge right now especially because of the high percentage of people creating new websites. Web designers need graphic designers to help them create banners, logos and other similar materials to use to make their websites beautiful.

There is also a vast number of opportunities offline that graphic designers can tap into including designing logos, business cards, brochures and business cards for various small and large organizations.

4. Freelance writing
Another business idea for a Nigerian student is to become a freelance Writer. You can find a lot of freelance writing jobs on websites like Freelancer, Odesk, Elance, Fiverr and other micro-job websites.

5. Blogging
Is there a topic you are passionate about? Or would you like other people to read of your experiences as a Nigerian Student? You can make a lot of money from blogging about diverse topics you love and the good thing is you can start this business without a kobo. All you need is your laptop and access to the internet.

6. Hairdressing/Barbing
This is a good idea for both female and male students. You can help your fellow students to cut/make their hair and charge them a token for it. You can choose to do this on weekends only to avoid undue interference with your academic work.

7. Event planning
Event planning is another easy business you can do as a student especially since most events fall during the weekend when there is little or no school work to be done.

8. Pet breeding
Another great business that can make you a student millionaire in no time is pet breeding. Imported dog breeds like Alsatians, Rottweilers and German Shepherds are some of the pets in very high demand in the Nigerian market.

9. Sewing
You can also make money from helping other students to sew and mend their clothes.

10. Web design
Lastly, you should consider becoming a web designer. Although you mind need to spend some time learning the skills but as soon as you grasp the skills, there are no limit to what you can earn from web designing even as a student.
