We know that several economies around the world are going through trying times and this affected a lot of individuals and organizations.
Lots of people have lost their jobs and many people are looking for jobs as we speak.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO LIVE WITHOUT FEELING THE EFFECTS OF THE ECONOMIC CRISES?
it is very possible but the question will be how. First you have to understand that looking for a job is a decision and starting something for yourself is also a decision. What is your decision?
If you really want to survive, then you must learn to look inwards. You must be ready to think. You must be observant.
Everything you need to be rich or succeed is somewhere around you. It's just that you haven't observed enough.
THE NEED
The honest truth is that there is a need around you that you can meet. How can you meet a need that you've not identified? You have to be observant in order to identify a need. If you have a need you can meet then you've created a niche for survival.
People will be willing to pay you for your services because everyone is not willing to take up responsibility. Now let me give you several instances.
(1) You stay in an estate with over 200 cars and you noticed that these car owners take their cars to a car wash frequently, you can find out the price they spend at the car wash, then propose to give them a better service with a lower cost at the comfort of their homes.
If you are able to get 2 clients,you will definitely expand your reach in this business. I am not saying you will be the one to wash the cars. You can employ some young guys, teach them the business and pay them according to how you will agree.
Let's say you are able to start with 10 cars and you charge $10 for each car every week, with a total expenditure of $4, which will include payment of staff and washing materials, you will have a profit of $60 per week and $240 every month.
As you expand, you will be able to start up a car wash or brand a home car wash service in your city that will be well known.
(2) The love for football is something you can take advantage of. Several people where I come from love football and they gather together in a viewing centre to watch several football matches like the English Premier League, Spanish league and the UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE.
you can decide to set up a viewing centre where people can watch football every weekend and at night during the week. You can make as much at $250 or more from this every week if it is done properly.
The important thing is to look for a need. If you don't look for it, there is no way you will see it. If you are not observant, there is no way you will observe it. Survival is left to you. There will be times where there won't be enough jobs for everyone and you will be relevant only when you are meeting a need.
I hope you enjoyed this post. If you did, just share your thoughts and we can talk more about it.
Thanks for taking out time to read through this post. Cheers.
