please if this thread is still open: I and my school mates at Ahmadu Bello University have created a very Unique and powerful Business Idea, that is sure to be one of the Biggest companies from Africa within the next three years (No exaggeration)we have registered the company as FlashIntel Ltd RC 1045598. The problem is our start up capital is relatively huge matter of fact, it does not fall under the small and medium enterprise category and the source of Finance disappointed us. we have taken the Idea to Banks to fund it, while it is not easy convincing Nigerian Banks to fund start-up companies, we have been able to convince Keystone bank plc and First bank plc, the problem is they both claim that no bank can go 100% to fund a new project we are required to come up with 30% of our start up cost as equity and that is about N280M, we don't have that kind of Cash and the so called venture capital firms are market women associations with fancy offices so I am soliciting to the rich guys online who have dormant cash in account to join us as we build this company. we are sure (and the banks are convinced about this)that in the first 18-24 months of operation, we will record a total of over 370 million U.S dollars, that is a hard and honest, real projection. like i said, the Business Idea is strong and would monopolize a certain sector of the Nigerian market. please help us share this around even if you don't have money...the company will affect millions of African youths and pave way for a whole new world....contact me via: 08083256618, 08138567071, or via my email address: just85501@gmail.com, you can also sort me out on Facebook:Infinity Christopher |

Up till now none of them reply my mails, the few i can contact keep posponding this for no really clear reason. NOW I AM TIRED OF GETTING CALLS FROM CUSTOMERS WITH COMPLAINT, I PROMISED THEM NEW AND IMPROVED APP AND SITE FOR THE PAST 5 MONTH. I AM CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR ONLY 48,000 to get a pc. This might be to pay back later OR ANY OTHER WAY. Please |

This might be to pay back later OR ANY OTHER WAY. Please Dear Fellow investors, this gentleman deserves some attention, particularly as a symbol of the new generation that he represents, I am impressed by your humble presentation of the truthful position of things here, which is different from the arrogant posturing in the other thread I have earlier confessed that I am not a Techie, but was impressed by the comments some of them made, and also was equally scared when they withdrew I however wanted to know what the complaints of prospective investors are, so that we can find a way to overcome it, but you said there was none. IF TRUE that may not be the best position to leave an aspiring entrepreneur, when I opt out of ventures I try to leave enough suggestions on what I perceive to be challenges that the business needs to overcome to move faster. This business needs improved packaging, a better rating of your competition & the value of the capital requirements I hope to send you a more detailed mail later today to suggest solutions and way forward Best Wishes |

just85501: please if this thread is still open: Base on experience, i would say your pitch wasnt a good one. I will analyse your pitch to prove my statement. The are pitching for an idea that is worth 250 million naira without a hint of what the idea is all about. The highest pitch on the popular dragons den investment program america and europe was never close to that your required about.250 million naira is equivelent to 1.4 million euros and 2 million dollar. You expect some private individual to promote ur idea without with just a post on nairaland? If you claimed your ideahas been registered.i guess you are talking about patenting.if it has been patented,why not share the idea and give investors a graps. If its just mare business registration, i would say you have nothing to offer then. Higher investment comes with security backup and if you dont have a patent.what makes u think the idea is worth a thing. U dont expect investors to put in money in your business that you registered for less than a 100 euros . So if u are ready for business,there are my advice Get a patent- at least to cover the whole of africa. With that you are assured of making more money as your idea will have a going concern. Try to cut down on your capital- no nl investor will put in 250 million .i did prefer to appear on dragons den with that capital . The best way to start is to start small. Pick a local, the. Grow onto region and national. Thanks 1 Like |

@elvisten, from my own end the main thing here is left with u. 1 u said u built d app wit ur mobile phone which I know is impossible.(From what kodewriter said u told his friend) 2 u failed to prove how u got ur programming knowledge,because I find it hard to believe that a 14 year old s.s 1 student can do such with d kind of education system we have in nigeria, especially when he doent have a pc. 3 I told u I'm studying law right? So I know its very dangerous n unadviseable to deal with a minor especially when u won't be 18 in a year or two. All these may be what is keeping other investors out and part of the reasons that I'm still sceptical bout the whole thing. |

hottprince: @elvisten, from my own end the main thing here is left with u.1)visit www.mumey.wen.ru and download j2me sdk mobile. Thats an arsenal in your java phone with it you can build any app from simple to semi-complex. Doubt me, check the site, download it and code. 2)you can come to my place in port harcourt to confirm, you can do that. I self taught myself with the help of google. You can also contact my parents. 3)I KNOW I MIGHT BE TOO YOUNG FOR THIS. MY KNOWLEDGE OF BUSINESS IS AT A BASIC LEVEL, YOU CAN'T BE A BOSS AT ALL FIELD. GOOGLE FOUNDERS CODED MAINLY, THEY LATER HIRED A C.E.O, THEY WERE EVEN RELUCTANT TO GO PUBLIC. Am not comparing Xmx Me with google but am just giving a point. MY PARENTS CAN ALSO BE INVOLVED IF NEEDED. Please, i don't want my idea to go down the drain like others. |

Elvis pls don't think I'm resenting u, I'm just trying to help I'm glad u got me on No 1 and I'll like us to tackle d remaining two, I'm not doubting ur age why should I? I'm just finding it difficult to see how a SS 1 student can do all these Then also its not only bout parental consent d law does not permit entering into any form of contract/agreement with a minor except in cases of necessities (I.e food,clothing n shelter) No one can predict the future but, there's a lot at stake in entering into a contract with a minor. I also wish for ur idea to get out so d only way I can proceed with u is to minimise my 'losses' n protect myself is to cut down my initial proposed amount by at least 2/3. My only advise is to find someone else who is willing to take a risk, I'm sorry but one can't be too careful, especially when there's a lot at stake. BTW I didn't pick ur call when u called cos at that time, the chelsea match was still on. |

hottprince: Elvis pls don't think I'm resenting u, I'm just trying to help I'm glad u got me on No 1 and I'll like us to tackle d remaining two, The first issue I raised with this project (on the other thread by elvis) was the legality of agreements with a minor For which he assured me of parental consent You have also through your post indicated protection for the second issue I raised, which was my low level technical savvy Consequently I hereby renew my INTEREST by choosing to team up with you to support this project You (HottPrince)may PM me soonest, so that we can strategize on how to give it a rapid response Best Wishes |

Manufacturing is the blood of any economy. A young and dynamic SME in Ogun State is seeking investors to invest in the business. The firm is involved in production and marketing of natural cosmetics. The product is duly registered and already in the market. The product is also available in two west african countries and being sold in one European country. The product has positive market acceptance within and outside Nigeria. At this point, the company needs funds for expansion, product enhancement and publicity. The promoters of the business are ready to sell shares in the business or consider a loan package. For more information, contact:itunuomotayo@yahoo.com 08024130609 You can also leave a post on this thread. If you have any valuable information, please feel free to share. Thank You

somebody: How about a nairaland version of Dragon's Den? For those who don't know/watch it - Dragon's Den is a reality TV show which features entrepreneurs pitching their ideas to potential investors for an equity investment. On this thread, entrepreneurs could pitch their ideas to Dragon's who could potentially finance their business. Personally, I am happy to fund good business ideas BUT with a maximum cap which I will not disclose. Also happy to co-invest if my maximum investment is reached. My interest lies in this because I am not a business people and would rather see my money go to work as opposed to leaving it in the bank. Please note the due diligence will be carried out and legal documents will be need to be signed before any investments are made. @somebody: i will be very honest with you that as a consultant, i am weary of the veracity of ur intentions and ur thread. Like seriously, do you expect people to come churn their creative ideas here publicly on NL? Perhaps maybe the young and inexperienced entrepreneurs. We do not know your profile, personality, website or better still nothing about you. The concept of Dragons Den isnt meant for masqurade angel investors or venture capitalists. If indeed you say you are interested in this, then more is required of you. I am sure you wouldnt expect i should past an executive summary of an idea i have laboured for just here. But if your unsuspecting preys appreciate this your approach, then who am i. All i have simple said is, your email would have been sufficient for exec summaries not on the pages of Nairaland Nigeria PLC. |
