Building a Startup in Nigeria Episode 1

[@Techbros53]

I’m a founder as well. Please conduct a survey. Validation goes beyond people coming up to you and saying your idea is nice. You need to know the amount of customers that would pay for the business as well as validate your business model. I’m rooting for you!

[@chideranwanyemike]

100% Advice. If they're not paying they'd always say it's a Nice idea😃😃😃

[@NotJead]

As a fellow Nigerian i feel very inspired

[@tegaabiri]

Then my goal is achieved☑️

[@salmansuleiman9992]

Truly inspiring. Utilities and limitations apart. All the best comes from Africa 🌍. And 80% from Nigeria

[@efeomordia7203]

Thank you!

[@youngg5099]

I just want to say that this is a very smart and great idea. As a current uni student this is exactly what I would need because my lecturers are a big time joke. If I had money I would invest

[@tegaabiri]

Thanks man.

[@pristine_the_tech_guy]

This is a great idea. I am also a software developer. I study Computer Science. Sometimes what i have realized is that we got hit up with lot of tech product ideas, and get stuck along the way. But i have always been advising, work on that idea that is burning you inside. Look at the market in that domain and see the gaps existing, and you can create your value from there. I saw some comment comparing this your idea to KZbin. The fact is that, this your idea is so customize for students doing the same course. And they would teach you exactly what you want to learn The same modules and the same university, the same everything. So students would prefer this your app far more over KZbin, unless they want to make an extra research

[@tegaabiri]

Yess! Exactly. It does offer a more structured pattern than KZbin does. Thank you.

[@Perrynatufe9105]

This idea go blow o

[@tegaabiri]

Thank you😂

[@rejoiceedokpayi]

Congratulations and all the best

[@tegaabiri]

[@diyaoluoluwaferanmi]

Thanks, Feranmi!!

[@avengingsylph]

Yo! In Luganda (a language of the Baganda of Uganda) your name means Trap Twenty. May you trap twenty million with this startup. Blessings.

[@tegaabiri]

Amen☺️😂

[@tonye_jimgeorge]

This is indeed inspiring

[@tegaabiri]

Thank you.

[@sinbad-h8t]

Well-done Brother, May God see you through to completion.

[@tegaabiri]

Amen. Thank you.

[@KarlSkorger]

Hi, i currently edit videos for a startup that does something similar to this, they plan on launching their app this year.

[@penlighty]

Godspeed Brother! You can also look into how to ensure the submitted video courses meet standard audio and video quality. Maybe create a guide to specify how they can go about creating engaging course videos.

[@tegaabiri]

Thank you! Yes, I started working on that already!

[@tresaar]

Keep up the content! Good work.

I have an idea but getting a team of developers and designers to volunteer to work on it is something have been working. This is inspiring!

This was exactly the idea i worked on some time back in Uni, currently working at a VC firm funding startups across africa, I could share some insights if you're interested

[@agulonye_m]

Do you mind, I would love to get insights too. Tried building something similar in Imo State University both wasn't able to pull through

[@abduljaleelabdulsamad7674]

Picking a name is tough. I've been on this for months now. Love the idea. Who edits your videos btw?

[@tegaabiri]

Yeah it is. I didn’t let it hold me back sha. I can always change it later. Whatever it is, just get it up and running quickly. Ise edits them. I’d give you his contact, but you already have it, I suppose😂

[@tegaabiri]

Thank you so much.

[@Aremumyke]

Lovely idea... Now I wish I was an angel investor or maybe I am... I'd be talking with you soon Tega😌🤝🏾

[@tegaabiri]

Or maybe you are😂 Looking forward to it, Aremumyke🤝🏽

[@the-terabyte]

Good Idea! I can see people preparing for another Jamb and WAEC taking some courses too, but starting with your Uni is a smart way to build an MVP, I’d start with General Courses esp for freshers, find tutors if you have to. Also, registering a Nigerian company for 80 thousand naira is very expensive! Except if there were other costs involved, there was a price increase lately but still got it done for 25k last month! Solid idea overall! NB: Be ready to change the name altogether later in the future😄

[@the-terabyte]

Also, try not to overspend on your domain and hosting. Together, they really shouldn’t cost you more than ₦50,000.

[@tegaabiri]

Thank you😂 I’ll consider that. I’m fully aware the name will change, we just need to get it up and running.

[@Stylesbytemi]

Well-done Dear🔥✨ keep it up💯

[@epso7621]

I´ve had the same idea before, but I didn’t follow through since it is hard to have a quality control and also this niche is already saturated due to youtube educational content.

[@cecilselormamediku9560]

Nice

[@tegaabiri]

Thank you.

[@ajahemmanuel_]

I love your idea but I think one way to attract unique user is by creating course that shows onboarding process of bowen university for fresher including entrance examination etc.

[@tegaabiri]

I’m not sure what you mean. Could you explain further?

[@ajahemmanuel_]

@@tegaabiri You create a post utme course for fresher, a PDF for fresher showing roadmap, what you need to know about Bowen, registration process, cheat sheet for maths courses for everyone not just Bowen students etc

[@jayosho]

Hey Tega, big ups to you! Takes a lot to build a startup and stick with it. Building an Edtech in Nigeria can be challenging but I'm sure you'd do great! I've got a question about your product though. Do you think there might be a challenge with students creating the courses? Like the skills involved in course creation. Anyway, subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to future updates.

[@tegaabiri]

Thank you so much, Jay! Well, of course, for people who haven’t created courses before, it might prove a difficulty at first. We guide them through the process, especially those doing it for the first time, since I have experience in creating online courses.

[@OmijieEsther]

I have a question boss, is it that you have got the skill first before making the idea comes to life or you are just in your learning phase. The reason being is that I have an idea also, but I in the learning phase of the skill that I will use to bring the idea to life. I need your advice boss

[@samuelayomide2190]

Hi, I'm glad to hear this! Is there anything I can do to help? I specialize in IT support and frontend web development, so feel free to let me know if my skills can be of use.
