COMING FROM THE TRENCHES
I've been sending cold DMs every Sunday for the past 3 months. Targeting LinkedIn SaaS founders and course creators. These 2 are in dire need of creative marketers who can make them more money. Last week Sunday, I sent a DM to an Australian startup founder on LinkedIn. He's a single father with a 2 years old beautiful daughter. He doesn't joke with his weekends. But I still decided to send it. Before that, I had already done my research. He is making money from his product but he has problem with scaling. He's been trying to move from $3k per month to $10k for months (He wants a luxurious life for his daughter). I addressed that painpoint in the DM I sent him using one of my cold pitching strategies (DM if you want to see it). He replied 2 hours later. We jumped on a call. Sent a proposal immediately after the call. September is getting better. Hallelujah.

Many of the founders you are dragging, 80% of them are running the startups with their personal fund. Do you know how many times I have considered wrapping up my own startup but when I remember those in my employment… Pulling the plug will make more people unemployed, so I just continue to use the money I suppose to use in buying Dangote IPO to pay salary. If every startup that is not profitable shutdown, do you know how many people will become unemployed? You all should go and start your own business and know how easy it is.

I'm nervous but we gotta try. If you know you want to sponsor my first-ever event, “The Way Out,” this is your sign. It’s focused on teaching the younger generation practical steps to build better lives, make money, find opportunities and become better. Not the usual tech event. Something different. Big brand or small brand, we genuinely don’t mind. If you want to support, show interest here: forms.gle/qoyPgmjXREDczcuF8
For the past 2 years, I’ve hosted Spaces, virtual events, shared opportunities, answered questions, connected people and helped as many people as I could. Now, we’re taking it offline. The title is THE WAY OUT I’m hosting THE WAY OUT in Lagos Mainland to celebrate 2 years of building this community. And I need YOU. We’re looking for volunteers who want to be part of putting this event together and creating an experience people will remember. If you’re in Lagos and you want to volunteer, contribute, meet amazing people and be part of something bigger, register here: forms.gle/nKKoFQ3BtYehXKEi7 We already have a sponsor onboard, and we’re also open to more brands and organisations who want to support what we’re building. This started with a Space. Now we’re building something real. THE WAY OUT.

Random advice for your remote job hunt: There is VERY often a huge difference between a real recruiter and a scammer. A real recruiter will usually tell you what caught their attention, mention the role, and give you enough information to verify the opportunity. Whereas, a scammer will often rush you, make ridiculous promises, ask for money, or request sensitive information way too early. The red flags are always there. Don’t let desperation or overexcitement make you ignore them.

Delphi Tools - www.delphitools .com Remove backgrounds, create QR codes, edit images and convert files. 2. Napkin AI - www.napkin .ai Turn your written ideas into clean visuals for presentations and content. 3. Iconify - www.iconify .design Find ready-made icons and get the code for your projects. 4. Adobe Podcast - podcast .adobe.com Clean up poor-quality recordings and make your voice sound much better. 5. StoryTribe - www.storytribeapp .com Create simple animated stories and scenes without needing design skills. Save this post. 📌

50+ DMs already. Seems y'all really need the cold pitching template. I'm coming.

I hate lending money to new parents especially first timers. I always regret it.😂 They have a way of guilt-tripping you into leaving the money with them. At some point, you’ll just have to let it go because you don’t want to look like the wicked person asking for your money while they’re trying to take care of their baby. Sometime last month, I lent one of my older cousins around ₦50k. She promised to pay me back this month, with interest. Yesterday was the deadline, I didn't receive any alert. This morning, she sent me a voice note in Yoruba saying, “Your baby is resuming school this morning. I want to buy pampers” (only Yorubas will get this) My baby ke? 😭😂 It’s YOUR baby o. I just want my ₦50k back. Don’t worry about the interest again. 😂
