What was the first business you started?

[tyrim88]

The first business i had was frying chips and fish pile. What made me do this as a young man was my hunger to make money after my secondary school. I quite made some money because it's easy and very profitable. But I stopped sometimes while I needed to further my education. I am back now and still doing it.

The first business i did was selling of houshold consumables and it went on very well and over time the patronage increased and we have to venture into some other related items like food items and palm oil production.

That is very quit commendable.keep it up.The first business i did was purchase and supply of palm oil produce,the business was stressful though as you have to go through some interio locality to get this products.And it was very profitable save for the stress.

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.

My first experience of business is when I was 11 years old. We have a family mini store outside of our house.

I do the marketing in the morning. I am also in charge in the counter. It was a very nice experience for me.

The first business I started was the sales of groceries and I will see the business was very lucrative because there is no data pass that people don't make use of groceries in their houses.

It was your family business, so I believe that you were one of the owners, am I right? Being in a family business is a good thing because you already have many experienced individuals around you. Moreover, they are also your family members, so you can easy gain experience from them.

Poultry farm. Apart from the chickens gradually dying, customers were not helping matters as they kept on buying on credit. It taught me a bitter lesson in both ways
