Notes of a Girl Whose Dad Owns The World
Trying to sell products, services or ideas on WhatsApp?
There’s money to be made on WhatsApp and I’m a witness!
But only if you’re doing it the right way.
Those 20 WhatsApp Stories like waist beads? They put people off more than attract them.
Numerous, lengthy broadcast messages? They’re mostly ignored.
Begging people to buy? Not sustainable.

How are others making money on Fiverr, Upwork and other freelancing sites?
You’ve signed up, and nothing is happening for you.
You’re just struggling to even understand how freelancing works, let alone how to make a living doing it.
Let’s not even talk about those making CRAZY money.
I have been freelancing for 9 years, and I built my business the old-fashioned way; trial and error, stumbling and getting up, figuring it out blindly.
It doesn’t have to be that way for you.
Having someone to hold your hand and show you exactly how to make money online as a freelancer — STEP BY STEP — will totally change your life.
The Fiverr & Upwork Freelancing Course is the course I wish I’d had when I was starting out as a freelancer.
I chose to promote it as an affiliate because people NEED this.
Freelancing helped me stay home with my preemie when I needed to.
Through 4 weeks in the incubator, a surgery at 6 months, and years of occlusion therapy, I was able to work from home (before it became a thing!) and I’m grateful for every moment I got to stay home with my sugar plum.
Freelancing blessed me.
There are so many clients waiting for the right freelancers; waiting for YOU.
Here’s the link to check out this life-changing course and see what it can do for your freelance career (and by extension, your bank account!)
Cheers to your abundance!
Anyone who’s known me for any length of time knows that I don’t believe in having just one source of income. If you’re new to the concept, I recommend this article I wrote about why you should have a side hustle.
Before my editorial services business became my main gig, it was my side hustle. When it became my primary source of income, I knew I needed another side hustle.
I had one for a while, and it was a truly fun and lucrative one, but amongst other drawbacks there was the “hustle” part of it.
I needed something less intrusive, something closer to my everyday life, a way to get paid for doing things I already did every day, things that came naturally to me.
After reading The Four-Year Career (a life-changing book for me!) I knew for sure that what I wanted was out there, and that I would recognize it when I saw it.
And I have!
I recently partnered with an amazing company that allows me to build residual income by doing what I’ve already been doing daily for free.
I’m excited and fired up!
PS
There’s a lot out there under the guise of business opportunities offering extra income. Here’s something I learnt from a great leader:
ABOUT YOUR OPPORTUNITY
If the answer is NO, don’t WALK away… RUN away!
If the answer is NO, don’t WALK away… RUN away!
If the answer is NO, don’t WALK away… RUN away!
When my BFF had her first pain-free period, I wished I could ask this question of every woman I knew: what if you could say goodbye to period pain forever?
All she did was make a single lifestyle change — she chose a dietary supplement I had just started promoting. It doesn’t cure anything. It elevates your body to peak state of health, and then your body does what it was designed to do: cleanse, heal, and rebalance itself.
She was simply supporting my new side hustle, but after 20 years of excruciating period pain (we’ve been friends since we were 12 years old) she had her first pain-free period ever.
You see, I was excited to start my new hustle. You would be too if you met the people I met and heard their stories.
Like the story of Monica’s son who had to be hospitalized every month, sometimes twice a month, because of his sickle cell crises. His genotype is still the same but with this supplement, he hasn’t had a single crisis in over two years.
Like the story of Chris whose blood sugar was so high that ants were gathering around his urine in the toilet bowl. Two weeks after cutting down on carbs and taking this supplement daily, his blood sugar was down to normal and has stayed within healthy limits.
Like the story of Funmi who used to have only 2 periods in a year because of PCOS, and had been trying unsuccessfully for years to have a 2nd child after her daughter. Not only did her periods become regular with continued use of this supplement, she conceived and now has a baby boy!
Yes, I was excited about my new mission. If you know me you know I love this kind of thing, making a difference in people’s lives.
So I made a decision to offer this supplement to everyone who was open to trying it. And after just few weeks on it, my BFF’s period came with zero cramps! Whoa!
What I love the most about this particular brand is that you don’t have to take the supplement in capsule form if you don’t want to.
What my BFF got (and what has now become my Number 1 choice) is the supplement already infused into that antioxidant-rich beverage that’s even healthier than water; green tea.
Wait, green tea is healthier than water? That doesn’t make sense! There’s nothing better than water!
Actually, there is: you get all the benefits of water AND all the benefits of the antioxidants, vitamins and minerals that exist in green tea!
Now imagine drinking this every day, PLUS the transformational benefits of this amazing supplement — the closest thing to nutritional perfection you can put in your mouth — infused into it. You can’t taste it, you can’t smell it, but it’s there and it’s working. Pure gold.

One of the most challenging parts of running a small or medium enterprise is being an employer of labour. Whether you have 3 employees or 30, life as you know it has changed forever. You’re now directly responsible to and for others, and you have to do right by them and also make sure that your business is better for their being there. Here are 7 pitfalls you’ll want to avoid.
The opportunity to share a flat can be a lifesaver for young professionals who need accommodation and cannot afford the cost of rent on their own. Every other day, there’s a social media post about someone having a room in their apartment they would like to rent out, someone needing a flatmate to share the cost of a nice new place they just found, or someone willing to pay for a room in a flat. However, if you’ve ever tried any of these, you know how challenging it can be to find the right flatmates.
Starting a small business is not a walk in the park, especially in Nigeria; a chat with any Nigerian entrepreneur will quickly reveal this. In spite of the many challenges, small businesses continue to spring up daily, and Connect Nigeria continues to support SMEs across Nigeria, recognizing the invaluable role they play in the economy.
Are you considering starting a small business? Have you identified the things that have held you back? Then ask yourself these questions.
Speaking of the side hustle phenomenon…

A side hustle is a service or product that you offer or sell on the side of your current full time job or business, to earn extra income.
There are many inspiring things about the Proverbs 31 woman. She has encouraged me to embrace the virtue of early rising, taught me the value of earning my own income as a woman, and helped me understand the importance of having help at home.
She has also taught me the value of having a side hustle, which is something that has changed my life in more ways than I can count. Here are just a few reasons why you should get a good side hustle in 2018.
Yes, you are a human being. Ecclesiastes 3:13 says “And people should eat and drink and enjoy the fruits of their labour, for these are gifts from God.” Being a woman doesn’t exclude you or mean that the gift of God doesn’t apply to you. The “virtuous and capable wife” in Proverbs 31 knew this. She went about her various businesses with zest and vigour, and applying her God given aptitude she invested her earnings, creating multiple streams of income and multiplying her revenue! Have a look:
-“She finds wool and flax and busily spins it.”
-“She goes to inspect a field and buys it; with her earnings she plants a vineyard.”
– She is energetic and strong, a hard worker. She makes sure her dealings are profitable; her lamp burns late into the night.
– She makes belted linen garments and sashes to sell to the merchants
Man or woman, there is dignity in labour. God has made it so, and is well pleased to see it. Get with the programme.
