Happy New Year everyone.

As you can tell from the title of this post, my plan is to try making 100k naira within 30 days, after this post goes live, starting with 1,500 naira.. How I plan on making it, will be outlined below.

Why am I doing this?

Recently, I got scammed online of a huge amount of my PayPal earnings, when I tried selling to an exchanger who didn't really have my best interest at heart (scammer). I'm into dropshipping (screenshot of December earnings attached below, before I got f#cked over) , and so, I had to use my personal cash to fulfill orders, just to keep my PayPal in good condition (as it's very difficult operating a working account in Nigeria, and this account is my last hope)

Right now I'm down to close to ₦1500. But this time, I want to document my journey on how I plan on taking that to 100k in 30 days.

So I have three options of doing this:

1 >> Sell a 3k service to 10 people, ( and use the proceeds for Instagram shoutouts on my already winning product, to get more and more, and rinse and repeat)
2 >> Sell a 3k service to 34 people
3 >> Sell a 10k service to 10 people

I was going to go with option 1, but I don't want to use any of my existing assets. Also, some people may not have an idea of what dropshipping is, and I wouldn't want to start entering another topic as a whole. I want to make this very relatable and actionable, just in case someone else wishes to follow.

So what service will I be selling? and how and where will I get my costumers.

This has been on my mind for quite a while now, and I was in my workroom, brainstorming on what service to provide, while also providing value, and at the same time undercutting the market.

I listed out all the skills I'm good at:

Dropshipping
Shopify store creation & theme editing
Video Editing
Facebook Ads Management
Keyboarding ... A.k.A Typing ( I average 130wpm)
Drop servicing (Acting as a middleman between a service provider and a potential consumer)

So how do I plan on Getting Clients you may ask!
Well, I'm going to go the traditional route.... I'mma be cold calling different individuals, and cold messaging them (on IG and Facebook) . Cold calling is an unsolicited telephone call to someone, in an attempt to sell goods or service. Likewise, cold outreach/messaging

I'd first start off with cold messaging, before going for cold calling. Of course, I've got a script I'm working on and will be done with the script before Day 4/5. As I need to go through the script and will let you all know the script.

Now during cold calling, especially to Nigerians, you have to be very professional, as most Nigerians think everyone that tries to sell em a service on phone is a yahoo boy....Lol.

How will I be getting the numbers for these cold calling you may ask


It's very simple. I'm good at Facebook Ads promotion. So I'm going to be outreaching to businesses on Google, and offering to show them how to place their adverts in front of thousands of Nigerians for dirt cheap (as it's cheap to advertise to Nigerian audience, due to the low CPMs). I"ve been in the marketing space for almost 5 years, so I should be able to create a nice marketing strategy to drive leads for my client.

I'd be getting the contact of my individuals from Google

So Which one of my skills would I focus on?


I'm really not going to focus on one skill. I'm just going to try each skill 50 times, till I land a client... Meaning I'd cold call and reach out to 50 individuals that want to show their ads on Facebook, and try to sell myself with my script.
If no one converts, from that, I'd go to the next skill.

I'll keep you all updated....

Next update will be the script I plan on using for the FB ads

#1000 - #1,500 naira will be used for the cold calling. I'm on a plan on MTN (betatalk), that gives me 3x my airtime, that's enough for a cold call.. Seeing that I wouldn't want to spend more than 2 mins per individual.

Godspeed to me!

Good luck. I wish I could follow your journey here but won't be around for a long time.

Do you have a whatsapp group where you update?

I should create a Whatsapp and Telegram group for this before Day 5.. By then I must have had everything set out and my plan fully edited, rethought over, and verified.

[UPDATES]

DAY 1 (7/1/2020): On this day, I went through my desired skills, and did a research to pick one, which is in heavy demand in Nigeria. I noticed, not everyone advertised on Facebook, and to spend on Facebook Ads, no be mai mai. You'd need to at least be spending minimum of $20 (8k) daily for guaranteed results, testing and what not. I figured not every customer that I'll private message or call, will be willing to spend this from the get-go, even though results are somewhat guaranteed, due to the extremely low CPMs in Nigeria. But then, with FB Ads, the whole funnel has to be tested multiple times, to get the angle that's working (story for another day)

DAY 2 (8/1/2020): On this day, I compared selling my services to Nigerians, versus Americans, or those in top tier countries, to have an idea of who'd be able to pay higher. Telling an average Nigerian to pay 10,000 naira for a service, especially that related to social media marketing, might seem "too expensive". On the other hand 10,000 naira is just about $USD25 for an American, and may seem too cheap for them*

DAY 3 (9/1/2020): On this day, I decided to test both advertising to Nigerians and Americans. I'm in the make money online space, A.K.A. dropshipping space. So I joined 20+ dropshipping groups with at least 10k members or more, and decided to send a cold dm , to both Nigerians and anyone living in (USA,UK,CA,AU,) to try and measure the results I get from both.

The message I sent them was regarding me offering my Facebook Advertising services

DAY 4 (10/1/2020): I got 1 individual from Uk, and another from USA interested in my offer. We're still in the conversation process, and I'll try to see how I can close her* I messaged mostly females, because they are quicker action takers, compared to males. Also, I got a Nigerian interested in my offer, but If I'm going to onboard him as a client, I'd only offer my services of store creation....as a way of luring him, then when I do great in that, I can upsell him other services.

DAY 5 (11/1/2020): I'm not really doing anything now. But I'll continue messaging individuals on both of my facebook account, and IG account. Limit is 150 messages daily on each...

.

Well done bro. But I've lost on the road, at the day 4, you said they interested in ur offer, pls what type of offer?
I'm about to start mini importation as a business, as a novice, hope i can drink out of your water of experience.

I messaged mostly females, because they are quicker action takers, compared to males.

Good Challenge on a nice Thread I must say, keep up the good job. @Bolded caught y attention, the case is quite different in SEO world.

When it comes to SEO, women are the most difficult set of poeple you can do outreach to in order to do guest posting on their sites. But it quite fascinating to see them in different manner from another angle.

I think you can achieve your set goal when you are more tenacious on foreign prospects, the Naija counter parts can just be icing on the cake.Anyways, I am following this to the end, but I don't think you will finished this challenge because you are fond of NOT doing so except for the one you did with Walker Michael only.

DAY 6 (12/1/2020): So I messaged quite a bunch of individuals, both foreign and national. Well, Nigerians, were rather receptive to my offer. I did actually make about 34k from Nigerians alone, in terms of just doing menial jobs like setting up shopify stores.

DAY 7 (13/1/2020): I was able to get 3 clients (Two in USA, & one in UK) who needed me to manage their facebook advertising, in the dropshipping space. We agreed a flat rate of $500 monthly, for the first month. Then 20% of the profit on months after that.

50% of the $500 will be paid after 5 days of successful results.

DAY 8 (14/1/2020): I started working on one store, on the 13th of January, and so far, today, we're profitable (20% profit) Image attached below.... Hopefully, I'm able to optimize the funnel more and drive in more sales and more profit. And on 16/1/2020, I'll get my $250 paycheck.

Due to the complexity and much focus needed moving forward, and in setting up the other 2 stores, I doubt I'll be able to update this thread anymore. Once I receive the $250 as planned with my current Client. I'd call it a wrap up for this, and then moving forward, I'll look at getting $1k-2k and restarting my own shopify store again. This time I won't be using exchangers. I'll either use Fiverr or upwork to withdraw my PayPal funds...i.e. listing a service on Fiverr(or upwork) on one account, and then paying for the service with my other account.

Peace!

Sorry about the scam issue... A newbie in dropshipping, haven't launch my store yet as I am still learning the ropes, will be delving into Facebook ads etc by next week. By next month though I'd be launching. Only downside is budget, which I am hopefully going to scale up by next month. But rn My startup capital currently standing at 50k.

Can I shoot you a DM?

Following up on this though.

Save your 50k, else you'd lose everything...Come to the table with 200k+($700 at least) to stand a shot at succeeding easier.

Yeah, to be frank, I didn't expect to make 150k in 9 days. But I actually did make more...The goal is to offer your skills to individuals, who are in the position to pay you for your services, without stress. And of course you must have proof.

Hey G12, my mannie. Been a while. Yeah, conversion rate not so great with only stripe! Except you're able to eat the loss, for a while, till facebook optimizes and shows your ads to only those who pay with credit card.
