In Nigeria every one of us knows what cement block is used for, but few of us know the money making potential that exist with the business of block making. There is this woman, a neighbor who lives just a stone throw from where our office previously is . We call her Mama Ejima; she used to live from hand to mouth like every other woman in that area until about two and half years ago (as at June 2012) when she started a Block Industry in a piece of property (land) she rented nears her house.
At first no one took her seriously, people where wondering how could a woman with children run a Block Industry successfully, that is if there is even a gain at all in it. People thought she would just fold up after some months, but that did not deter her from carrying on with her planned project.
As at the last time we checked, she had fully acquired the previously rented land from the owner, built three flats of two bedrooms each for rent, renovated their previously dilapidated house, and bought a supply truck! All within two and half years of running the Block Industry.
The most interesting part of it all is that, she barely lift a finger. She is not the one who used mix the cements, she is also not the one molding the blocks, neither is she the one loading or offloading the blocks. All she does is supervise, while her money work for her. At the end of every working day, she will smile to the bank with thousands of Naira made from the business.
There were some people living in that area who had more money that she does at that point in time when she started the business but none of them was thinking in that direction until she got it going. Today, she is the envy of everyone in that area including those who previously thought she was wasting her time.
You in your own part, it doesn't matter how much you have now, what really matters is the idea you have because without useful idea, the money you have now will just go before you realize it because, "money come and go on daily basis" like Buba Malwa (former military Governor of Lagos State) once said. But if your idea is solid, the tiniest money in your hands now could be turned into mega millions within a short time. And one of the business idea that could do that for you right now is the idea of starting your own Block Industry in your area straight away! If you're ready to give it a try, here is the step by step how to go about it:READ MORE
