| Business Ideas for dummies |
Below is the list of business ideas you can use to make money
- Janitorial Business

- Website designer
- Youtuber

Janitorial Business
Before you can start this business, you need to do the following
- Register your janitorial company with the CAC
- Get working equipment
- Set up your business website
For you to be recognized as a company, you need to register your business with the corporate affairs commission (CAC). This company is responsible for the registration and reservation of businesses in Nigeria.
With the insecurity in the country, you cannot just walk into someone’s house or company claiming to be a janitor.
Get working equipment
As a janitor, you need some basic equipment to help you in working effectively. Some of this equipment are Cleaning buckets, moppers, vacum cleaner, shovel, wheel barrows and many more.
These equipment cost some few bucks but they are actually affordable. Make sure you have access to them before thinking of starting a janitorial company.
Set up a business website
Setting up a website is an added advantage to your janitorial business even though it is completely optional. Daily, millions of people are searching on the internet for products or services.
As a janitorial company with a website, you can convert those search queries into leads that will patronize your business.
Social Media Manager
Most of these celebrities don’t have time to be posting on social media, so they need someone that can keep their online presence active while they work on other important things.
For you to get such kind of job is not actually easy but achievable. the reason why I said is not easy is because such jobs involve trust and competence. If you exhibit such qualities people and companies can offer you such kind of job.
Childcare Service
Doing this business can make you a lot of money. In places like Lagos and Abuja, you can make an average of 15,000-25,000 monthly offering such kind of service. Just imagine you taking care of up to 10 kids while collecting 25,000 from each parent.
Website Designer
Most of these frameworks are simply drag and drop. You can make money by offering Webdesign services to small businesses and clients who want a simple blog.
If you think you don’t have the knowledge to start that, you can learn from youtube or Udemy and within a month you should be good at designing any kind of website.
Youtuber
Youtube has a monetization option that allows you to get paid for sharing videos and entertaining viewers. You can make pretty good money from the comfort of your home using this monetization feature.
