What was the first business you started?

[Jesuyemi 08]

Many people like to start their own business and I am sure there are many people in here who have done the same thing. So, what was the very first business you started and were you successful in running that business? Why did you start that particular business? What were some good reasons to do that? Thanks.

The first business I started like 5 years ago is what I am still doing today and the business is internet and utility bills subscriptions.

My first business was transportation business. I bought a bus and gave it out to someone else to drive and deliver money to me based on agreement. It turned out to be a failure because in most cases, the driver will come home at the end of the work complaining about the car and different excuses to cover up for not delivering money. I eventually sold the vehicle.

The first business i started was production of falm oil produce and sales,this is due to the fact that this product is a very essential commodity and household can't do without it.

Now that I think of it, I started a small group of party planners when the current one in my class wasn't working so. It was an awesome experience working with the guys but of course there were some challenges, some deadlines we couldn't meet, human misunderstandings but we pulled off major events.

Low income can really be a demotivating factor to stop a business but one should be sure before closing the business as that business night have a long term profitable rate

This happened some year back, as far back as at 2001. I started out with the selling of baby dress and cosmetics. It was very productive and lucrative even as at that time. The business really grew then before i went back to school.

This is true low Income could also be a demotivational factor. A lot of people have given up on their business because of the low income attached to the business

This is just one area that I do not so much like because i believe what is worth doing is worth doing well so it is just necessary that plans how to get the required money to kick off a business
