VIRAL GISTS
Politics & Government
With the trending economic situation, many businesses have failed. Regardless, many of the causes of business failure can be prevented. These causes from Colossus Gists shared by Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency will help you put together a plan to make sure your business is around for decades.
A. Lack of experience
Lack of experience is one of the causes of business failure. If you are inexperienced or your management is made up of novices, then your business is likely to fail. When starting a new business, it is advised you get the services of people experienced in that field.
B. No Accountability
Some people throw accountability into the dustbin because they own the business, Hence, there is no difference between their personal money and business money. They simply spend. You must be accountable for any kobo your business spend and makes.
C. Poor Location
You cannot start a business where the service is not needed. Making it classy will not make people patronize you. A good market survey is required before a business location is chosen.
D. Failure to understand your market and customers
It’s important that you understand your market and customers buying habits. Answering questions about who your customers are and how much they are willing to spend.
E. Overdependence on a Single Customer
If your biggest customer walked out the door and never returned, your organisation or business may be done for. Hence, do not rely on a single customer. Try as much as possible to diversify your customer base.
F. Copying Others
What worked for Mr A may not work for Mr B. Many people have gone into business or made a business choice because they see others doing it and think they can be successful in it if they try. It is good you add your own idea after proper consultation, that will make you different.
G. Quitting too soon
Giving up too early is the biggest reason why many businesses fail. If you do not persist, research, fail and try and try again, you might not be successful in business.
H. Inadequate Financing
A business will definitely fail if there is no cash flow. Your business needs a steady cash flow to take it through its day to day running.

Flight cancellations and delays are now a norm among Nigerian airlines. Without providing information, they simply announce that your flight has been canceled or delayed. You are shocked and angry not because of the cancellation but due to the lack of courtesy for you and other customers.
A good example is Medview Airline that canceled its flight from Nigeria to London thereby leaving many passengers stranded at the airport in both Nigeria and London. They did not make any provision for these passengers. Anyway, Colossus Gists in partnership with Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency shares ways you can deal with flight delays and cancellation.
A. Focus
Getting the news that your flight has been abruptly canceled can easily make you lose focus. This is because you already schedule your itinerant and not flying on that day can be costly. Think of the next thing you have to do. Is it for someone to pick you up at the airport? Call your boss? Or find a place to sleep?
B. Keep Your Cool
You will not be blamed if you lose your cool. You have all the right to go berzerk. There were reports of passengers beating up airline staff for flight cancellations and delays. You do not have to be counted among them. Be firm but polite with staff. Chances are that, it’s not their fault. Don’t just lose your cool.
C. Make Friends/network
Making friends is always good especially when you are waiting to be airlifted. This is just one of the perks of your flight being canceled or delayed.
D. Entertain Yourself
Always carry with you something that helps you kill time. The first thing that comes to mind is your phone. So ensure your phone is fully charged and do not forget your external charger.
E. Eat and Drink
Eat and drink to help you keep your cool. Dehydration and hunger are obviously going to make you feel worse later on. So, if you have not eaten, visit a restaurant to quench your hunger.
F. Seek Compensation
Don't allow things to go just like that. God will not come down to change things because some Nigerians will say they should leave it in the hands of God. So, seek compensation from the airline for delaying your flight and if they do not respond, you should go to court (if you can).
G. Make a Complaint
You can make a complaint to the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA). Of course, you may think that they may not do anything but still, you should still make your complaint. The more the complaint about a particular airline, the more they will be prompted to do something.

A visit to the different embassies in Lagos and Abuja will give you a fair idea of the number of Nigerians who want to jet out of the country. Getting the visa for some is like a lifeline.
It is either they get it or nothing else. Rejection for them is unacceptable. As such, Colossus Gists with the help of Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency shares tips for a successful visa interview.
1. Forget about all the stories of rejection you have heard
There are lots of stories about the mean consular officers at the embassies and their knack for rejecting visa applications. Do not allow these stories to get to you. Have a positive mental attitude and you will be surprised that if you genuinely respond to interview questions, you will get the visa.
2. Arrive very early
There is no African time in this case. As early as 7 am some embassies have kicked off their screening. If you are late, your chances of even being allowed into the premises are very slim let alone being interviewed.
3. Prepare yourself for questions
You should be prepared to say everything about yourself and your work. So, when answering the questions, you should focus on demonstrating that you meet the requirements for getting a particular visa category and of course, do not lie.
4. Carry with the right documents
It is foolhardy when you arrive for an interview and you do not have the correct documents. Your interview is already jeopardised. It is essential that you carry the necessary documents.
5. Familiarize yourself with your application materials
Do not just carry the right documents, you have to also familiarise yourself with these documents. Additionally, arrange them in such a way that you can easily access any document when it is requested.
6. Address any potential language issues
If you have an accent (Yoruba, Hausa or Ibo) that could potentially be difficult for a consular officer to understand you, make sure you speak slowly. At the same time, if you cannot understand what the consular officer is saying, do not be afraid to tell him/her. It is for your own good.
7. Dress for success
Dress for your visa interview like you will dress for a job interview. You must appear businesslike.
8. Pray
We are very religious people in Nigeria. We 'love' God so much. There is absolutely nothing wrong with praying for your visa application to go smoothly. However, you must do all the aforementioned. Like they say work and pray.

Finance has always been a problem for many businesses and startups. A large number of them have folded up due to lack of funding. However, we hear in the news almost on a daily basis that a Nigerian startup has won thousands of dollars from investors and Venture Capitalists. Colossus Gists with the help Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, discloses ways to attract investors to your travel startup.
1. Show results first
It may be a bit difficult for a relatively new startup to secure funding because it cannot show any business results. So, before seeking investors, you should work on getting customers and results. Do not manipulate the results because the investor will always audit.
2. Enroll in a startup accelerator
Unlike in the past, there are now so many startup labs in Nigeria. The pioneer is CCHub. There are others. You can join these startup accelerators so that they can offer you everything you need to run a successful business. They can also expose your business to investors.
3. Have co-founder (s)
Your chances of attracting funding or investors are higher if you have co-founders. They are much more confident because all business decision is not invested in the hands of one person or individual! So no matter what, look for two serious, talented, committed and reliable business partners.
4. A clear path to making money
Investors love their money and they will never allow anyone to throw it away. Hence, one of the first question you will be asked is how to I get a return on investment? If you cannot define or state that clearly, sorry you will never get any investment.
5. Ask for advice
Seeking advice from a potential investor is one of the creative and strategic ways to attract them. Through this, you will build a relationship with them. As the relationship grows, you can begin to let them know what you really need. Never ambush or cold-call an investor. It usually comes off as desperate!
6. Get an investor that is also a partner, not just a check
Granted, you need the cash to boost your business. The is not everything. The investor should also be able to offer something beyond money. It is better. This is good because they can make corrections when you are going the wrong way.
7. Try to market your business at networking functions
Networking allows you to informally pitch your startup ideas to potential business partners and investors. If your idea is clear and unambiguous, you may find someone that is interested in working with you. So, when you have a networking opportunity, arm yourself with all the information you need to effectively sell you business.

A fantastic business remains an idea if pragmatic steps are not taken to bring it to fruition. A huge complaint, drawback or excuse many give is that there is no money to fund the startup or business idea. Unfortunately, many of these million naira ideas have died because of lack of funding.
Colossus Gists with the help of Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, agrees that funding is a major factor in business. However, it should not prevent you from going ahead. As a Nigerian, there are ways you can raise capital for your business. Read on to discover these ways.
1. Savings
Saving is one of the best ways to get money to start a business no matter the number of zeroes in front of your salary. If you have figured out the workability of your idea, you should save a certain percentage of your salary monthly.
2. Sell some of your valuables
You have to make the sacrifice if you really want to do business. Your valuables are important. But establishing something that will get you more of these luxuries in the future is the ultimate. So, you can sell your car, your iPhone and other valuables you think you can do without.
3. Family and close relatives
You can also seek support from your parents, brothers, sisters and close relatives. Before they release their money, make sure they believe in your idea. You don't want them to pour money into a basket.
4. Your rich friends
If you have friends who are wealthy, you can also sell your idea to them. They may otherwise not be interested in everything you have to say. However, as far as you bring returns on investment, they are willing to give you their money.
5. Search for investors
All the aforementioned are personal efforts. Now you have to widen your tentacles. You have to get the big money investors to buy into your business idea. This is where your business plan will come to your rescue. Send it out to possible investors. Not just anyone who may steal your idea. You can ask friends for contacts.
6. Pitch your idea
There are some many events where you can pitch your idea to skimming investors. If your idea is good, you are in luck. Remember in this case, others will have to be involved in the operations of your business.
7. Apply for startup funds
We are in the Internet age and there are thousands of startup funds out there for Nigerians and Africans. Search for these funds and apply. If your idea is selected, you will be invited for an accelerator program where you will be trained by experts and given cash rewards. But at least, you must have some structure in place for you to apply.

Success does not come cheap. It requires hard work, perseverance and a lot of sacrifices to achieve it. It is difficult to abdicate something you are used to. However, when you think of the results of your sacrifice, you should be willing and ready to do away with them. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency shares with Colossus Gists the sacrifice you must make to be successful.
A. Time
We all have 24 hours. For many, this is never enough. However, if you really want to be successful, you have to plan your schedule and invest your time wisely. In addition, you have to cut off the things you waste time on and refocus them on important and relevant things. You barely have any free time if you are pursuing success.
B. Sleep
In this case, you have no choice than to deny yourself sleep. Yes, you may be tired after work and the weekend is the only time you may have to sleep. So, due to this, you sleep whenever you are opportune. Success full people sleep but they wake up at a point in time at night to do the things that will bring them that desired success.
C. Friends
The hard truth is you only need friends that key into your dreams and ambitions. If you find that kind of friend, you should keep that person. Of course, you have other friends that you won't like to lose but you have to. In some situations, you may have them as friends but your level of communication will reduce as you are too busy chasing success.
D. Personal wants
You have to be very disciplined if you want success. You need every penny. So, you have to quit buying all those extravagant stuff. And even if you do not buy them, you still need to make the personal sacrifice to deny yourself of certain wants.
E. Social life
Partying and clubbing every weekend has to reduce. In fact, if you are obsessed with success, you are not supposed to have a social life. That is extreme you may say. But the truth is you have to significantly cut down your merry-go-round.
F. Relationships
It can be difficult to balance relationships and work. But if you have someone that understands that you have to pursue success, then stay with that person. Clearly, you have to find time to also stoke that relationship. If you cannot balance both ends, just quit and focus on one. Relationship or success? Success it is.

You have been thinking about launching your own business enterprise but the fear of the unknown grips you that you keep postponing it. You know that procrastinating about starting something can lead to regret later.
If you are in this position, it is time to stop thinking and kick off your entrepreneurial journey. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency shares with Colossus Gists ways you can quickly start your own business.
A. Simply start
Yes, you do not have money to start a business. That is a major entrepreneurial problem that cannot be overcome. There will always be financial scarcity. But start with the little you have. Find a solution to a problem or you sell anything in case you do not know the business you want to do.
B. Ask someone for advice
Have a mentor who will guide you and who you can talk or call anytime for advice. Of course, they must be persons who are willing to share the secret of doing business with you in a Nigerian environment as well as offering assistance when you are stuck. They will also share challenges. This will stop you from giving up.
C. Work with someone who drives you to do more
You do not want to work with someone that is negative. Sooner rather than later, everything will collapse. Therefore, you should look for an individual who will drive you to your limit. This will prompt you to give everything to your startup or business.
D. Hire freelance workers
You do not need to hire permanent workers immediately you start your business. You can take advantage of freelancers who will also do a good job for you. The demands of freelancers can’t be compared to that of permanent workers. When your business is a bit stable, you can now engage permanent workers.
E. Don't focus on money
For people who focus on money, they will not be patient for their business to start running itself. This is because it may take years before you start profiting from it. Invest your money and relax for it to make returns in few years. You can’t break even immediately.
F. Interact with your potential customers
Do not be afraid to talk to your friends and potential who you know can patronise your business. Even if they do not do business with you, they know that you have a business you are running. Also, do not forget to use social media to push your business. You can go as far as sponsoring your business on twitter, Facebook or Instagram. It cost less than two dollars to do this.

A typical employee spends eight to nine hours at work every day. Considering the fact that, as an employee, you spend more time at work than with families and loved ones, it is important that you do work that counts.
The workplace isn’t a somewhere you simply get paid for showing up every morning, what really matters is the amount of meaningful work that gets accomplished. What determines whether you become a top performer, get a raise or a promotion often boils down to your level of productivity at work. Remember that this is why you were employed in the first place.
Productivity in today’s workplace is no longer what it used to be. According to Forbes productivity, today, focuses on how well you are able to adapt yourself to optimising your performance at work.
Workers who come to work every day, are the first in the office and the last to leave, are busy all day, rarely take breaks, skip meetings, take lunch at their desks, never miss deadlines and always complete their tasks usually seem like the most productive employees. This is, however, not always the case. Why? Because, more often than not, such workers always produce the same kind of work and rarely push boundaries.
Productivity is about creativity, ingenuity, innovation and delivering real value. Not blindly completing tasks on-time. It goes beyond that. Companies with employees who don’t push boundaries and do what is known as evergreen work will stagnate and eventually die. So, how then do you increase your productivity at work?
1. Cultivate great work ethics and skills
According to a Global O.C Tanner survey, more managers around the world are beginning to de-emphasize a hundred percent efficiency in tasks and focusing more on great work that achieves real results and isn’t just about current initiatives. What does this mean for you as an employee? Simple, stop trying to be perfect. Rather, focus more of your energy on improving outcomes.
Forbes advise that you spend “…less time blindly completing tasks and more time questioning, thinking, and collaborating.” To be productive in today’s workplace, you:
- Cannot afford to isolate yourself
- Must ask inquisitive questions that spur innovative ideas
- Take time to stop and ideate
- Consult with colleagues and supervisors about the solution and incorporate diverse knowledge and viewpoints into your work.
- Break big tasks into small chunks
- Commit early to something very important
- Set your schedule for the next day the night before you leave the office
2. Take short breaks
The human body is not configured to be static and motionless over a long period of time. Sitting at your desk for hours poses a grave danger to the body. This is why you need to take frequent breaks at work, especially if your job is not one that takes you out of your workspace or the office frequently. According to a report by Quantum Workplace, employees are 14 percent more engaged when provided time off to recharge.
Sitting in a spot for too long leads to a significant drop in lipoprotein lipase (LPL), which is the enzyme responsible for breaking down fat in the bloodstream and converting it to energy and causes a buildup of fat cells. In simpler English, a lack of movement could sap you of much-needed energy.
Consider taking short walking breaks. It reinvigorates your mind and body and ultimately helps you become more creative and productive at work.
3. Healthy snacking to stay focused
Staying productive at work requires that you feed on healthy snacks. As the popular saying goes: you are what you eat. This is especially true at work because healthy employees are more productive.
According to a research by the Health Enhancement Research Organization (HERO), Brigham Young University and the Center for Health Research at Healthways, employees who eat healthily are 25 percent more likely to have higher job performance.
Instead of a heavy lunch or carb-laden food and drinks that may lead to fatigue, try to choose a high-protein snack or a healthy snack. The carbs will keep you energised, and high-protein snacks will help control your appetite and keep your blood sugar at normal levels. Remember, better health is about making better choices.
4. Learn to say “NO”
One of the hardest things to do at work is saying an emphatic “NO” to your colleagues. You don’t want to be labelled as being uncooperative or selfish. That’s understandable but you really need to learn to respectfully decline invitations and/or offers.
Asked to sit in a meeting that, frankly, doesn’t require your attendance? Skip it. Also, avoid multi-tasking. Rather, concentrate on working on one relevant task or project at a time and you’ll achieve better results.
Whatever you do, learn to say NO to distractions at work. According to research by SentryPC, “Internet surfing of non-work related nature results in up to a 40% loss of productivity each year for American businesses.” How? See for yourself:
- 64% of employees say they visit non-work related websites each and every day on the job
- 70% of all pornographic website traffic occurs during the nine to five workday
- 92% of stock trading happens during the work day
- 30% of employees said they watch sports online while at work
- 25% of those surveyed said they have shopped online while at work rather than doing so at home
- 46% of workers said they actively look for a new job on the internet during work at their current job

5. Do more of the things that make you happy
According to a study by the Social Market Foundation and the University of Warwick, happiness led to a 12% spike in staff productivity.
Shawn Anchor, the author of ‘The Happiness Advantage,’ also found that the “brain works much better when a person is feeling positive.”
People also tend to be “more creative and better at solving problems” when they are happy. In addition, research has proven that happy workers collaborate and work more effectively toward common goals. It follows that your productivity levels would greatly increase if you do more of the things that make you happy.
At work, some of those things that make you happy could include building strong relationships with co-workers, helping out co-workers, meditating for at least two minutes every day, and reflecting on three things to be grateful for at work. The Harvard Business Review (HBR) for shares some more ideas on staying happy at work.
Final thoughts
Delivering the best value to your employer and making a difference for customers or clients should be your major goal on the job. To achieve this, you must commit to a better work ethic, healthy eating, regular breaks and doing more of what makes you happy.
It may seem ironic but you really need to do more for yourself, if you’ll indeed deliver better value to your employer.

Web designing has taken the world with a storm. If you think how then just look witness the websites of successful businesses and compare your design with theirs. You will find style, ease, effectivity, professionalism, and accessibility in their web design. This is something that does count in the big picture.
You know an effective and professional Web design plays a chief part in your consumers’ buying decision. For improving your sales, you must consider a professional Web design service which can improve every bit of the experience of your visitors.
A. Cater Your Stuff Faster!
The purpose of a web design is to lead your customers to their desired information, products, and services swiftly and without any hassle. Whether you believe it or not, online consumers expect swift response in everything. Whether talking about a piece of information, a product or a service, if you cater them this on a swift pace, they would prefer to do business with you.
You know your sales conversion can be intensely increased by ensuring that you have the professional web design features, consumer-centric navigation and innovative search features. Remember if a customer fails to find what he is looking for, he would take no time to look for it elsewhere.
B. Make Their Buying Convenient
If you have a website which has everything but is not organised in a proper manner, everything would go in vain. What is the point if your website has so many pop ups and advertisements? No customer likes to surpass these hurdles Every now and then to reach out to their information. The more convenient and easy path you make, the more your customers relish your service.
There are hundreds of websites out there dealing in the same products, services and information in which you are. Now, in such a scenario, what really can make you their first preference is your web design. If the design is stylish in looks, easy in use, effective in working and over all professional, it would boost your sales.
C. Kick Off Unnecessary Elements
Many a times, companies possess websites which are excellent in looks and have everything to offer but lack smoothness. For example, what is the point if a customer visits your website and the moment he steps in, the web page begins to show tantrums? Suppose your page is taking too long to load or maybe there are some silly advertisements crawling all over, such things spoil the mood of visitors.
On the other hand, everyone loves it when a website caters them everything in the way they want it to be. Suppose you visit a website to get some information on a particular product. The moment you entered there, you found well organized pages, proper buttons, catchy color combinations, good font and most importantly easy navigation.
