5. Online shop
The virtual market could be interesting even in an economic meltdown. People won’t stop buying food, clothes, shoes, and cosmetics. Experienced businessmen recommend trading both online and offline. This expands the circle of customers and allows you to increase sales.
However, for the beginner entrepreneurs, it’s highly recommended to start from online. In this case, you can try to find your target audience and figure out, what kind of goods you would sell. If you see that you have some additional resources, and you have a strong demand, then you can try to go offline. A small showroom in the shopping center is a nice offline extension of your online business.



6. Mini-importation business
Importing products from different countries is an excellent option for personal business. Obviously, considering the fact that Nigeria imports literally everything we consume.



7. Blogging
Among the many types of Internet earnings blogging (the creation and promotion of a blog or website) has gained maximum popularity. Although both the site and the blog is an intellectual development in which the owner invests his emotions, ideas, time and money, it requires much more attention, and the level of profit from the blog will be directly proportional to the efforts spent on it.
To develop, create and promote your site or blog you have to put maximum creative efforts. Quite frankly, this goal is entirely achievable, since this business is very lucrative, and brings an average of several thousand to several million Naira a year.


8. Lounge
Formally, a lounge bar is a kind of mini hospitality business, especially for stand-alone lounges that are not part of hotels. The word lounge can be generally attributed to anything from bar to billiard room. Lounge bars are usually designed for wealthy customers and offer refined drinks and expensive dishes, they often organize VIP rooms, live music etc. Talk about a money maker!

9. Bookmaking business

1. A computer.
2. A printer.
3. A copier.
4. Internet access.
Also, you have to think about software for receiving bets. Here there are two options, either the licensed program is bought or the program is written by the skilled programmers. A bookmaker's office is nothing more than a sports exchange game. This type of operations is one of the most profitable of all known short-term financial instruments.


10. Transport business
Buying some types of freight vehicles can automatically make you owner of a small business involved in the freight industry. Of course, you still have to find your clients and make some investments in the advertising. But, the main point of this business is that your wheels can make you lots of money.
What kind of car you have to buy depends on what kind of cargo you will be transporting. Therefore, in the very beginning, you have to probe the nearby market: what is carried more often? In prospect, you can hire additional drivers, buy new freight vehicles, and expand your business through different regions.

11. Travel agency
Tourism business is dominated by two kinds of players: tour operators and travel agents. The first is engaged in the development of tours, and form a price for them. Travel agents are doing less work, selling ready tours.
For a beginner travel agency, it is important to determine the target market which it will work with and the specialization of the tours that it will sell. According to experts, at the initial stage, the main thing for the firm is to survive the off-season. Send at least 500 tourists abroad, then, in the second year of operation, the client base will grow.
