Just like the event management, this is a very vital unit you can make maximum returns on investment, in any little celebration, people cut cakes, at times rice and stew may not be available, but what is known today as ‘small chops’ will always be available, that is where you can make good cash with low capital, first you have to learn, the skill is a little bit technical, so you will have to learn how to mix the recipe in the right and correct proportion, you will also have to learn innovative packaging and some catering skills to sale better. you can open a small outlet restaurant, you will be amazed with the daily returns.

Hairdressing/ Barbing Saloon

an average hair cut around small cities goes for N300, in some other big cities, people pay as high as N500 to N1,000 just to have a hair cut, if you do this for lets say 20 persons daily, that is money, then multiply that in a week and subsequently in a month, you do not need to borrow to pay your fees or house rent, you will always have food to eat, as a matter of fact, business conscious young men have made fortunes out of just a common barbing saloon like you will call it. How about hair dressing, offcos you dont need a soothsayer to know how much it costs a lady to dress her hair, all these requires very low capital to start yet, the returns are highly impressive, Start from getting a good clipper and other barbing accessories, then see how far you can go.

Photography

This is one of the most silent business ideas in Nigeria that starts with low capital and huge returns, I am still proud of Samuel Akpan, a friend and a brilliant classmate who saw himself through school with the funds realised through simple photographing. he only used his house rent to purchase a camera, squad with a friend and before the end of that school session, He got himself a nice and better apartment, Life is easy, if only we can start small, keep pride aside, focus and hardworking, You can do same, go cover weddings, and other events, majorly weekends, you will surely testify of the returns.
