As a Digital Marketer, many times, I have to bring my price down to satisfy clients. It's kind of hard because most of the time, I always end up not making #3000 from a business.

People look down on small brands.


Also, financial aspect is always a Problem.

Incase you have issues in running sponsored ads, I train, I help to run, I handle social media pages, I can trend your business on Twitter e.t.c.

I'm a freelancer and Kindle Author. My greatest challenge is electricity.
To write a book (KDP) or do freelance jobs (Fiverr & Upwork), I need a very conducive, well-lit, environment. I spend roughly N700 daily on petrol for gen to power my home office.

Electricity is very important. Sadly, the Nigerian government doesn't want to do anything about it. We gained Independence in 1960. It's been 59 long years and Nigeria cannot boast of 24 hour electricity.

There are certain dependencies that can make or break an entrepreneur, alot of people think that there is a secret to success as an entrepreneur. Research has shown that there is no one path. This why I like the book “ Foreignpreneur; the 9 dependencies of success “ you can understand more about the most important challenges that you need to be aware, to build a successful business

Entrepreneurs Greatest Challenge In Business.

I met a young businessperson some years back and asked him what was his greatest challenge in business. Dude went ahead and said marketing. He was with no doubt on the right track but at a profound dimension, it isn't marketing but...

But what? Competition!

[img]https://2.bp..com/-iqRwzlxfwSY/XGfuyMup9fI/AAAAAAAAAhE/sWIwpjhl_SoVX-UL11yJg8Y7MVmUO7gLACLcBGAs/s1600/Competition.jpg[/img]

Many years ago, an Austrian-born American management consultant, author, and the popular “founder of modern management,” Peter Drucker cited that “Business has only two functions — marketing and innovation.” Business can be challenging when paddled with a quack marketing but nonetheless, competition is a greater challenge.

Envision that you are the main advertiser on the web or you are the only one publicizing your products online. Regardless of your showcasing approach and expertise, you will have your audience and always gain peoples attention. Marketing becomes a problem due to the fact that the computerized world has become a hybrid civilization of interdependent economy with millions of small businesses springing up daily and billions of entrepreneurs finding common ground. Everyone wants to be known and recognized, and this quest to gain an abiding relevance and popularity on the web led to an eternal struggle of endless competition.

With billions of potential businesses competing against yours, you will want to figure out a way to outperform your rivals. That's why your business either has to be competitive or anticompetitive in nature. If your business is competitive, you have to make use of good business intelligence and employ all forms of strategy such as competitive strategy & customer retention strategy, and sometimes based your competition on price factor and customers relationship management. But if your business is anticompetitive, you provide rare value and amazing qualities are already crafted at the core of your products. You wouldn't have to compete on prices because you already provide values like no one else have done. Apple, Samsung, and Microsoft are the most suitable example of befitting companies. With a smartphone and a laptop costing over $1000+, people will still cue on ground competing to buy. Meaning that if your business is anticompetitive, your customers will do the competition for you irrespective of the price attached.

With my points clearly stated, kindly drop in the comment below any useful suggestion and contribution.

Many at times, we claim we are mentally Ok when we daily struggle with: depression, anxiety, fear, drug addiction, sleep problems, sexual problems etc -

All these cannot be treated by a Surgeon, Paediatrician, Orthopaedic Surgeon etc, but by a Mental health Physician.

Why then don't we want to come or take our ill relatives to psychiatric hospitals like Aro, Yaba Psychiatric Hospitals etc Many at times, It is because of the STIGMA!

As a result, we go or take these ill relatives to traditional homes, spiritual homes or even keep ourselves/ them at home, claiming it's a SPIRITUAL ATTACK!

These prompted Dr Nubi Peter-a Luth trained Consultant Psychiatrist to establish one of the only few privately owned Psychiatric Clinics in Lagos.

The hospital is equipped with the state of the art equipment in a great ambiance.

Our motto is "caring for the total man".

IT REMAINS ONE OF THE MOST "COST EFFECTIVE PRIVATE PSYCHIATRIC FACILITIES" IN NIGERIA!

Freelancing is all about Marketing your skills on a freelance platform. A client who needs your services will contact you, negotiate a deal, you render the service, and of he or she is satisfied, you get paid.
The most important thing is that you must had a service to render.....
