One of the most common things I hear from small business owners is, “I’m not big enough for structure yet.”But let’s be honest—if you’re too busy, too overwhelmed, or too disorganised to grow right now… structure is exactly what you need. At Kudi Konsult, we’ve worked with solo entrepreneurs, side hustlers, and small teams who […]
The silent trap We all start businesses with passion. You want freedom, control, and a life where you don’t have to answer to anyone. You imagine waking up when you want, serving great clients, and making money doing what you love. But very quickly, the dream starts to blur. You’re the one replying DMs, handling […]
Many small business owners in Nigeria don’t have a visibility problem. Or a pricing problem. Or even a product problem. They have a follow-up problem. You post content, get a few DMs, people ask for prices, say “I’ll get back to you” or “I’m thinking about it.”Then… nothing. Silence. And instead of going back to […]
Imagine waking up to orders you didn’t push, referrals you didn’t beg for, and loyal customers who come back—even when you’ve gone quiet on social media. That’s not luck. That’s brand pull. And in today’s noisy market where everyone is shouting for attention, the businesses that win long-term are the ones that people return to—automatically. […]
When we talk about “business,” most people imagine strategy decks, pitch presentations, and maybe an MBA. But in Nigeria, some of the sharpest business minds are not in boardrooms—they’re under umbrellas at Ojuelegba, Balogun, or the junction by your estate gate. They didn’t attend business school. They don’t have business cards. But they know how […]

You’re the admin officer, marketer, customer service rep, accountant, and dispatch manager—all rolled into one. But here’s the truth: you can’t grow if you’re doing everything yourself.And you don’t need to hire a full team just yet—sometimes, […]
Before most Nigerians buy anything (especially online), they do one thing first. They scroll through the comments.They ask someone, “Have you used them before?”They check for tagged posts or reviews—something that proves the business is legit. Because in this economy, nobody wants to waste money.And in a digital world full of scams, false advertising, and […]
Let’s get straight to it: posting content is not the same as building a business. Yes, we know—content is important. You’ve been told to “stay consistent,” “show up,” and “create value.” So you post your designs, record reels, tweet advice, or update your Instagram story every day. But if you’re honest, you’ve started to wonder… […]
Let’s be real—slow sales happen to every business. Even the most established brands experience dry seasons where orders slow down, enquiries get fewer, and the buzz feels like it’s fading. It’s frustrating, it’s worrying—and if you’re a Nigerian entrepreneur operating in today’s economy, it can feel downright scary. But before you panic, slash your prices, […]
You had a plan.You did the research.You launched with excitement. But now, months (or even years) in… things just aren’t adding up. The energy is low. The results aren’t matching the effort. And you’re left wondering: Should I keep pushing—or is it time to shift? It’s a tough place to be. Because many Nigerian entrepreneurs […]
