Hello I am kind of new here. I
registered to become a member of this
forum because I believe it is a gathering
of present NYSC members and ex-corps
members who have a wealth of
experience in the fields they are
specialized in.
However, before I state the purpose of
this thread, I would like you to know that
the use of the word 'Dummies' is in no
way intended to insult anyone, it's just a
word that can accurately describe a
person who is new to an idea and the
experiences that come with this idea
I rounded of NYSC in February this year
and I was amazed at the number of
unemployed youths that appear for
interviews. As a solution to this I opted to
build up a business plan and find a
mentor I can look up to, instead of
waiting for a white collar job.
I know most would-be entrepreneurs
think that getting capital to start a
business is a major challenge, but I beg
to differ because I know that if you do
not have a carefully planned business
plan then you are planning to fail if
the capital is eventually provided for the
startup.
I would like this thread to be a topic of
interest for would be entrepreneurs and
established entrepreneurs amongs us.
Please feel free to post your startup
experiences, also feel free to drop a word
of advice for those looking to start a
business or even if you are a resource
person with experience in things like this,
your contribution will go along way in
helping someone.

please this is my first time starting a topic. Forgive my typo error

Guy, you tried.

Starting a business is not always easy, but sweet. when i finished my NYSC, the only thing i could pointed to as my achievement is my laptop, then i needed to do something with it that will better my situation. so, a friend introduce me to Green world opportunity, i took it with a mind as if is my own company and in 9 months i was already driving a brand new car as award from the company while my NYSC friends are still busy writing and submitting application around the town. The decision is yours, start whatever you think you know best and God will help you out.

Thanks for your contribution.
