5 Businesses To Venture Into in 2018!

Hello, my amazing angels! I hope you all are doing well! Today I have decided to inspire you on five top business ideas you can venture in 2018! These business ideas would enable you to become self-employed and independent. You may decide to indulge in these businesses ideas as a part-time job. You would love these tips friends!

I have been a beauty and business consultant for several years now. I have helped several of my colleagues, family members, and friends to find a job, start their own businesses and also helped them with their social media and digital marketing ( business development) I am currently the student mentor of the University of Dundee in Scotland, I coach freshers(new students) on how to earn good grades during their studies, finance,  find a job, start their own business,socializing, management etc especially by writing on the school blog and via WhatsApp messenger.

Today’s blog post is to inspire you on 5 top business ideas. My oldest son inspired me to share with you this blog post, he is very talented, after making several beautiful pictures of me ( this first picture in the black dress was shot by him a few years ago in Mallorca Spain), I decided to inspire you all my great friends, fans and family.

  1. Real estate business
  2. Modeling
  3. Social media consultant
  4. Personal Shopper
  5. Photography

My Daddy has been a building contractor in Nigeria for over three decades now, he and his colleagues have built several schools, polytechnics, houses, business complex and more in Nigeria. He recently advised me to start a real estate business, he promised to guide and coach me. Real estate business is a very cool business to venture in. If you guys need help with buying or renting a house in Nigeria, Europe, please ask me I can give you some advice.

I have had the ample opportunity to work with over four hundred photographers in Europe, I still have their contacts, they were amazing, kind, very hardworking and talented. I have also learned a lot of photography skills during my photo sessions such s editing pictures with Lightroom, portrait professionals, photoshop and more.

I am also a social media consultant, I help companies to make pictures of their goods and services, post online and tag them, sometimes I build websites, update their social media pages.

I have been a personal shopper for over a decade, 11 years ago, when I visited the  Netherlands very frequently, my banker friends from Lekki Lagos Nigeria, my big family, friends, and neighbors in Treasure Garden Estate Lagos Nigeria then used to ask me to buy clothes, perfumes, telephones, iPad, laptops, mp3 players and more. I really enjoyed my personal shopping experience. I am still a personal shopper till date. Over a decade ago, We had two cars, a Chrysler pt, and a Grand Cherokee, I remembered driving often to ShopRite after a long day at work to buy luxurious makeup, clothes, shoes for my friends and family. I was a very busy woman and all my friends and family always loved all the items I picked out for them at the ShopRite shop in Lekki Lagos Nigeria. I have helped several of my friends with shopping for cars, electronics, furniture, cosmetics that was actually my part time job then.

I hope these tips inspired you.

I love you!

Top Nutritional Delicious Food!

Hello, muffins! I hope you all are doing great. I have helped several of my friends, fans and family members to lose tons of calories by advising them on great delicious diets to take every day. During my study of Biochemistry, I learnt a lot about food biochemistry and great essential nutrients. Good food is great but the excess food is toxic for the body. Too much food intake can cause heart disease, obesity and diabetes. Tanya burr and Jamie Olivier has written terrific books and guide on how to make healthy meals. You can find their tutorials online too. Below are essential food items to incorporate in your diet on daily basis. Fruits such as apple, banana, mango etc

  1. Vegetables such as cucumber, tomato, broccoli. It is better to purchase little quality of food that would last you for one or two days than buying too much food that might expire after a couple of days.
  2. Lots of fish, meat, fish, chicken. Rice, potato and spaghetti are paramount.
  3. Lots of water, juice and at least 3 glass of milk every day for healthy bones and teeth. Milk contains calcium. Calcium is an essential nutrient for healthy hair and bone. Fun fact, do you know that you can mix egg, yoghurt and olive oil when you apply it to your hair and face every day, it would help you look very young. You may also mix olive oil, kiwi and sugar on a bowl, apply it on your face as a scrub on daily basis, it will help your skin look spotless.
  4. Last but not the least, exercise often, run errands by taking a long walk, bike, wear amazing cloths  ( it does not have to be expensive, it should look neat and presentable and have fun!

I love you all so so much!

Thank you for all your love and support. I truly appreciate it.

Hallo, muffins! Ik hoop dat het goed met jullie gaat. Ik heb een aantal van mijn vrienden, fans en familieleden geholpen om tonnen calorieën te verliezen door hen te adviseren over heerlijke diëten die ze elke dag kunnen nemen. Tijdens mijn studie Biochemie heb ik veel geleerd over voedselbiochemie en belangrijke  essentiële voedingsstoffen. Goed eten is geweldig, maar het teveel aan voedsel is giftig voor het lichaam. Te veel voedselinname kan hartaandoeningen, obesitas en diabetes veroorzaken. Tanya burr en Jamie Olivier hebben geweldige boeken en richtlijnen geschreven over het maken van gezonde maaltijden. Je kunt hun tutorials ook online vinden. Hieronder staan essentiële voedingsproducten die dagelijks in uw dieet worden verwerkt. Fruit zoals appel, banaan, mango, enzvt.

-Groenten zoals komkommer, tomaat, broccoli. Het is beter om weinig voedsel aan te schaffen dat een of twee dagen meegaat dan te veel voedsel te kopen dat na een paar dagen kan vervallen.

-Veel vis, vlees, vis, kip. Rijst, aardappel en spaghetti staan voorop.

-Veel water, sap en minstens 3 glazen melk per dag voor gezonde botten en tanden. Melk bevat calcium. Calcium is een essentiële voedingsstof voor gezond haar en botten. Leuk feit, weet je dat je eieren, yoghurt en olijfolie kunt mengen als je het elke dag op je haar en gezicht aanbrengt, dan zou je er heel jong uitzien. Je kunt ook olijfolie, kiwi en suiker op een schaal mengen, dagelijks op je gezicht aanbrengen als scrub, het zal je huid er vlekkeloos laten uitzien.

Als laatste, maar niet de minste, loop vaank om je boodschappen te doen of fietsen, draag mooie kleden (het hoeft niet duur te zijn, het moet er netjes en toonbaar uitzien en altijd probeer plezier te hebben!

Ik hou zo veel van jullie allemaal!

Bedankt voor al je liefde en steun. Ik waardeer het echt.

Hello my adorable angels! I hope you all are doing great. Rotterdam is one of my favourite cities in Europe. I love shopping in Rotterdam because its fun and easy to find almost everything you need. For my international friend, Hoogstraat in Beurs is great for shopping. I like buying stylish outfits and jewelries from Zara and Swarovski. You can buy toys for kids from Bart Smit and Intertoys. Cex is a cool shop in Zuidplein where you can purchase affordable electronics, phones, games at very affordable prices. Rotterdam Zuidplein is a fun friendly place o shop, free wifi and nice serene atmosphere for shopping. If you need a nice place to stay, you may want to lodge at the Hilton Hotel, Easy Hotel, Intel Hotels or Novotel In Rotterdam. If you are on budget, you may want to spend the night at city hub hostel. I enjoy coffee at Starbucks and Douwe Egbert at Rotterdam central station.

Hallo schatjes! hoe is het met jullie? Deze blog post van vandaag is bedoeld om hoe jullie te inspireren om geweldige e-mails te schrijven. Er zijn verschillende soorten e-mails, formeel, informeel, casual etc. Let goed op bij het schrijven van e-mails. Hieronder staan enkele geweldige ideetjes  voor u waar dames en heren zich aan moeten houden bij het schrijven van e-mails. dus laten we beginnen!
Gelieve te controleren op spelfouten bij het schrijven van formele e-mails.
Gebruik grammatical (een online applicatie voor het controleren van spelfouten) of een bijgewerkt Microsoft-word. Wees heel beleefd als je professionele brieven schrijft
Schrijf een goede motivatiebrief door uit te leggen waarom je graag voor het bedrijf, je ervaring en kwalificaties. Zorg ervoor dat je de boodschap gericht houdt op het onderwerp
Verstuur en beantwoord snel naar belangrijk berichten. Als u bijvoorbeeld ziek bent en afwezigheid van uw werk nodig hebt, stuur dan vierentwintig uur tevoren een bericht naar uw bedrijf.
Als u geen Nederlands, Frans of Duits spreekt en een baan moet zoeken in bedrijven die gevestigd zijn in Nederland, Frankrijk en Duitsland, raadpleeg dan iemand die deze talen spreekt voor een richtlijn over hoe u de baan kunt aanvragen in deze hierboven genoemde talen. Wees alsjeblieft niet volledig afhankelijk van Google translator omdat er soms fouten kunnen zijn.
Zorg ervoor dat u de persoon die de baan aanbiedt, toespreekt terwijl u de brief schrijft.
Ik hoop dat deze paar tips nuttig zijn! Wilt u alstublieft met mij delen hoe u professionele e-mails schrijft? Ik vind het leuk om van jullie te leren!
