3 Business Ideas You've Never Thought About by project4OO: 3:49pm On Apr 26, 2017
Tired of the regular "copy and paste" business ideas? See this;


1. Funeral Planner (Event Planning)
This is one unpopular and the least talked about aspect of event planning in Nigeria. When people talk about event planning, all that comes to mind is wedding or birthday parties. Reason being that a funeral can be an extremely emotional experience where often families are left to organise the process in a short period of time when simultaneously dealing with the grief and loss that comes at such a difficult period. This is a period where a business-centric individual can come in to assist the grieving families. Who says you can't grieve and cry with the grieving families and still return home with parcels of Naira?

Unlike weddings, not everyone prepare for funerals, so whoever embraces this idea must be prepared for extremely tedious processes and schedules. Often in a short time, many decisions have to be made. To get this business up and running, pre-planned packages may be developed online (website) for clients to select their preferred options before a proper business meeting with your client.

Note: Funeral planning isn't a funeral home. You can be a funeral planner/event planner without necessarily owing a funeral home or cemetery. As a matter of fact, not many people, including me, would eat from dishes prepared by a "funeral home". So your job as a planner, is to negotiate, designate, allocate, and provide your clients with their preferred options: tribute, order of service, aso-ebi, befitting coffin, after-service catering, photography, etc.

Your target market as a funeral planner can include oversea based Nigerians with aged parents, the working class, and anybody with aged/old relatives.

2. Canned Sweet Corn Factory
Lovers of fried and jollof rice will understand the power of sweet corn. Worthy of note is that, the canned sweet corn we all know is simply a combination of sugar, corn and preservative. Simple, right?

Here is the bad news, no home based Nigerian entrepreneur or company as of today has produced a canned sweet corn. Virtually all the sweet corn in the market today were imported from China and Thailand.

If the Chinese can, you too can! Corn is everywhere, same with sugar!

3. Day Care? What about Night Care?
This is pretty straightforward, because some mothers work at night too, a day/night care (a 24-hour daycare) might be an exceptional idea for a struggling daycare looking to increase revenue. It could also be a great avenue for passionate minds, lovers of kids, etc. Of course, it will cost you some funds! You need security, health care and power.
