These are points of leverage 🤌🏻🤌🏻. The question becomes how can you start applying these?!
How to OUTEARN and OUTPERFORM 99% of Nigerian content creators, online businesses and thought leaders.

1.) Acquire a dollar-denominated debit card (or other equivalent) that is able to make purchases online.
The internet was practically invented by America. The best internet tools, ideas and software that will give you a competitive edge are American and priced in US Dollars.
Most Nigerians will not go through the hassle and rigor of acquiring a payment method that works.
Once their Naira card doesn’t work, they will abandon the purchase and start watching skits online.
If you are one of the few that are able to jump through the necessary hurdles to get your payment systems in order, you will have access to money-minting tools and they will be unable to compete.

2.) Get a VPN, sometimes 2
Some websites and essential services restrict Nigerians. That’s their problem.
As long as your intents are legitimate, scale that racist wall.
Most Nigerians be like “I tried it yesterday. It dinnor open.” and that’s the end.
But if it’s to vote BBNaija now, they will borrow money to vote.
It’s good actually. Less competition for you.

3.) Find ways to drastically lower your internet expenses (hosting, email marketing, etc).
I won’t go into much details here but my students know I regularly share closed deals that reduce their bills by 95%
There are websites that offer periodic sales for LTDs (Lifetime Deals) for apps that usually would attract a monthly subscription.
The most popular being Appsumo.
Can’t type the full url here lest I get sent to the bottomless pit of Mark Sugarbag’s shadow ban but get resourceful. Not hard at all.
