What was the first business you started?

[Aniwhyte]

The first business I started was selling of recharge card, I sold recharge card for more than 2 years and to be honest, I wasn't successful as there is no gain in recharge card selling. Selling 500 naira worth of recharge card only produces a gain of 10 naira, those who has done this business before would understand what I'm saying.

since I was 14 years old. Whether it was selling paintball equipment on eBay or golf balls at the local golf course, I always had a side hustle growing up. In my later teens and early twenties, I ran other businesses designing websites for companies and selling products via my own e-commerce sites.

I realize that you are probably asking about my current venture but it’s important to mention the above because believe it or not, if I had not been involved in those other businesses, I wouldn’t be running the business I am today. I will definitely get more into this during my response to your next question.

My first business was into entertainment disk jockey to be precise,but I notice people want to get your services for free,and what is the essence of doing business and at the end you are not making money from it,so it is so annoying while I will be called for a show to make their party a lively one,but all because they might know one of my friend he we tell them not to worry about thee payments that he we sort it out,but at the end he will start begging like what are we friends for saying some kind of words like that ... So at the end I will do it for them but I have to quit since am not warning from it. It's a very sad experience anytime I remember...
