Hello friend👋

Welcome to another week in February, my amazing active readers. 

I trust your February has been fabulously wonderful.

This week, we are looking at the solution and five proven steps on how you can avoid the ‘shege’ ahead in 2024 and beyond. During the last letter I explained that inflation is the shege we are aiming at disarming legitimately.

I exchanged a certain amount of digital currency and the equivalence was really shocking when it was converted to NGN (the Nigerian currency). It was not what I could imagine, even though it was a little amount. That really got me thinking about the need to globalise my services. You can also learn how you can do this from your end freely from me; ensure you read this letter till the end because I have a gift for you that you can never get anywhere else. 

Do you know you can let your audience or future clients pay for your services at a foreign currency exchange rather than being bitter about the low amount you get when you exchange it for Naira? Doing this will save you money and also offer you the opportunity to get what you offer at a reasonable price and make a profit as an enterprising individual. You need to understand the charge you give people in dollarised economy is diffrent from the people in Africa. Raise it higher. If you are an entrepreneur, look forward to making this a norm.

You can offer your services actively to people who need them. Getting prospective clients only takes a few investments from your end that are really worth it, and they are not monetary. It only requires your consistency and your deliberate effort to actualize your desired result. You have a lot to do to make it possible.

Your prospective clients are all on various social media platforms, but it’s easier for you to get them on LinkedIn due to the level and calibre of people there. It’s a professional platform, which makes it easier to reach clients faster in the digital age. While you charge one person a high ticket amount, you can also charge another person a low ticket based on the kind of person they are and what they can afford. Industry leaders could pay you as little as $1,000 or $10,000 for a writing gig, while a low ticket could be as low as $100 or $200 per service you render to them. 

Being able to offer 21st century skills like copywriting, ghostwriting, editing, graphics design, and slide presentation, among several others, are crucial areas in which you can create an edge against the prominent shege this year and the years ahead. Do well to master the skills before you offer to do it as a service. If you prioritise and are good at the skill you offer, you will be able to get referrals for other prospective clients easily. 

The first three solutions and recommendations I have shared with you are from the active income aspect, which means you will need to be actively involved to get the money you desire. It requires your professional expertise and active presence (online or physical). On the other hand, the next solutions I will be sharing with you require your single effort that you can turn into a passive stream of income. This effort is not magic; it requires a lot of dedication, hard work, and expertise. However, you do not need to be actively present to attend to what people want from you. You are free to leave the product with all the descriptions and call to action for people to pick what they want or use it. 

You need to ensure you put effort into utilising convertible marketing strategies to direct your potential clients to do what is right, either to read or to buy after they are done. You can receive alerts from the purchase of your products while you are sleeping; all you need to do is use the right platform so the customers can have a seamless experience. The passive ideas include the uploading of helping content like self-help materials, “how to… guide”, books, audio files, video files, online courses among others. 

Another vital way to drastically overcome the shege is to put out content in the specific area you are passionate about. You can ask for people to engage and share widely. You have the opportunity to monetize or request a coffee from people who get value from your content. Feel free to inform them that they can support you. 

A few of the places you can actualize that are on YouTube and Twitter. Instagram also gives you revenue, but it is not like the first two I mentioned. Put effort into the consistent creation and publishing of viral content. Make sure they are of high quality so you can get the widest reach possible. Do not forget that this does not happen overnight. It will definitely take a period of time before you start realising the results you have made in the past.

I currently have 1-on-1 consulting, in which you can learn, steal my brain, and also ask tons of questions within one hour. Although it’s 100,000 Naira, I am currently offering it at NGN 50,000. Imagine having…that‘s ’s a whooping 50% Off discount.

But guess what? That is a one-time offer and would not be in-depth enough for your all-round growth. I am currently offering a three-month group mentorship for ten people only, and I will be hosting bimonthly virtual meetings as well as personal growth opportunities for the next 90 days. Free email consulting and different investment strategies I learned from Africa’s Most Influential Investment Coach, Dr. Stephen Akintayo.  

This costs a minimum of $500 with the content that will be shared and the dedication I will give to it. but I will do a very philanthropic act as a Gen Z coach who desires your growth and personal development.

Note: If you are not ready to take action, do not join, as it will be a stretch. 

Because you are one of my active readers of my newsletter, you will be only need to pay a commitment fee of NGN 9,999 only.  Prices goes up after the first cohort which is end of April. This is only for ten quality and committed people.

Offer Closes in less than 36 Hours.

30 Days Money Back Guarantee. You can get your money back if you do not get value for what you paid for in 30 Days. T&C Apply!

PS: Do not enter someone’s DM and start selling your product. That will be a very bad thing to do and you won’t definitely want to be seen as a desperate individual. Ensure you greet and get to know about the client a bit before you go ahead to pitch your idea or service. 

PPS: Interpret the room whenever you are in. The room here means the person’s DM. Be sure it’s something they need or could refer someone to you in the future. 

Do not miss out on this golden, one-time, and rare offer.

Thanks for reading.

Till I write to you again, keep doing great and smashing your goals.

Best regards,

James Popoola.
