Step 1: Are you a business owner or are you about to start a business?
While running a business, It is important for you to know what selling online and offline have in common, and this is, “customers”. If there are no customers there would literally be no one to sell to, if you also get your customers wrong, you would not sell!
A lot of people get into business because they are passionate about the skill or products they want to sell, this is a good thing but they fail to put their customers into consideration when creating these products or services to sell or buying to resell. This is a very wrong move, your business should be very customer-centric, especially in Nigeria and Africa at large.
Some business owners start considering the customers after already creating the product or service. This is very wrong and it is not the right thing to do if you want to sell to Nigerians and other Africans, with this method, you are not likely to sell much.
As you create a business plan, you should also be working on a customer Avatar or a buyer persona as they sometimes call it.
“How will this product serve my customers?” “What issues are they having with my competitors?” “would a sachet or bottle, work better for these customers?” etc. These are the sort of things that should be at the back of your mind when starting a business.
