Ideas that are booming in other countries but might not work in Nigeria. (But who knows,there might be a change soon)

 The world  is moving and trends are changing , with third world countries always exhibiting demonstration effect, its worth a thought when and how some new Ideas might/might not shape and change our activities here in Nigeria.
  • Care sharing Services: Cars can be rented and billed based on mileage for a customer. Companies like Getaround, are expanding their coverage.  Where you have so many cars sitting at home and you can only drive on a day, you could actually rent you car to another person that might have need for it.  Here in Nigeria , lot of people are worried about theft , even where there are car trackers. People are also worried about car parts theft and some other factors they see might be an impeding factor before this might actually work in Nigeria
  •  The Taxi App(Uber ) : This has been on for quite a while now, but news reaching us now is that Uber’s CEO has put TESLA to a challenge of making 500,000 self driving cars by the year 2020.Uber’s CEO says they are set to buy everyone of them. I can only imagine entering a self-driven car as my personal car, but as a commercial vehicle, it would take a whole idea adjustment.

  • The House Sharing Service: Airbnb might never replace hotels but its sure chipping off some customers. Can this work in Nigeria?

 These companies would definitely spread their tentacles over the world with time, maybe the time cut a piece of their pie , might be soon.

In my opinion, any idea can sell and become a huge sell out anywhere in the world if,
1. There is unstoppable determination by the idea bearer
2. The willingness to be patient and ready to fail and retry new strategies
3. Be ready to put in all your resources which far goes beyond money
4. ..... hmmm I think you have to pay from the rest!

Nice one winny
