In 2023, Hilda Baci reportly made 187 million naira from teaching people how to cook.
Vicky James charges 1M for a three-day training on fashion designing.
Adejoke Lasisi charges $5,000 to teach people how to recycle waste (how to turn trash to cash).
Onyinyechi Ogbonna charges 200k to teach people how to exchange Nigerian naira to Chinese yuan.
Today, Asake's Barber (Topzycut) holds a two-day barbing workshop for 500k per slot.
Now, tell me, of all the five persons mentioned above, what is so special or so difficult about what they are teaching?
None of those things they are teaching is rocket science. These are just simple skills that many people can actually insult or take for menial jobs.
They are probably not even the best in those areas. But they are making tonnes of money from them because they choose to package and teach what they know.
But this post is not about Hilda.
It is not about Vicky James.
It is not about Lasisi.
It is not about Onyinyechi.
And it is not even about Topzycut.
It is actually about you.
What about you?
Could it be that there is nothing you know?
I doubt.
And if indeed there is something you know, why should you continue to suffer lack?
Why not use what you have today?
There are millions of people out there who want to know what you know, and they are willing to pay you to teach them.
Why not check again.
What can you do?
What are you very good at?
Perhaps:
๐You can write;
๐You can sing;
๐You can cook;
๐You can make people laugh;
๐You can draw;
๐You can design;
๐You can pray;
๐You can talk;
๐You can teach;
๐You can sew;
๐You can design a website;
๐You can edit video;
๐You can prepare sermons;
๐You can prepare Bible Study Manuals;
๐You know safety rules;
๐You can analyse football;
๐You can analyse politics;
๐You can analyse the financial market;
๐You are a great farmer;
๐You are good and experienced in love-making;
๐You are great at copywriting;
I can go on and on and on.
But you know yourself, what is it that you can do?
That is your pathway to reach the world.
Use it.
Package it.
Teach it.
