WHAT YOU READ CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE

   WRITTEN BY ODKMEDIABLOG                               

           I love this popular adage that said that “readers are leaders”, of course that is true. People who read today are doing nothing but preparing way and getting themselves ready for tomorrow’s leadership responsibility. Knowledge is power and one of the most vital instrument for a man to survive in twenty first century. There are numerous opportunities to survive and become wealthy but only people who have the knowledge of existence of such opportunities tap into it and create wealth out of it. There are many great ideas, wisdom, knowledge that is buried inside a book but you cannot get them if you don’t read. It will interest you to know that one of the secrets of the richest people on earth is the quest to obtain knowledge and make exploit. There are many people who would have not been what they are today if not for the book they read once upon a time in their life, a good example which is very close to us and good example to Nigeria youth is the stories of JOBBERMAN founders which if not for the book they read jobberman will have not come into existence. There are still many people whom the motivational books they read changed their life and propelled them to take an action which today has made them what they are.
        The day you stop reading and searching for more knowledge that is the day you start dying. One thing about great men on whom we have carried a lot of research on, is that these men values knowledge more than any other thing and their acquisition of knowledge puts them ahead over others and that is why it seems that they are the only ones succeeding. Many of them who are drop out even reads more than people with PHD. While the PHD masters and undergraduate students read and fill their brain these rare men with extra ordinary qualities read to acquire knowledge which will be very essential to them in the future.
     If you are a young man and you want to become successful in the future all you have to do now is to pick a book and read. Today the internet has now made it possible for you access wide ranges of books just in the comfort of your home, to buy books from the comfort of your home from Konga click here.

WRITTEN BY: ODKMEDIABLOG



            The new media industry seems to be one of the most lucrative industry right now and that is why all dick and harry wants to get their own share from it. New media as the name sound is an innovative media companies which came into existence some years ago. In the seventies, sixties and even late eighties, what was invoke was the traditional media which is made up of the newspaper, the radio, the television station, the magazine and the book publishing firms. During this era the traditional media was owned and controlled by the government and some privileged individuals who have the money to afford the huge capital that is required to run these media houses. But as the internet becomes popular and people started appreciating and using it, the new media which is mostly online companies started emerging. As their popularity increases that of the traditional media declines and today the new media is the talk of town and that is why the traditional media are now investing in the new media to avoid losing adverts and revenues to the new media companies.
       There are now many opportunities for people who are creative enough to run their own online media companies. In this article I will be talking about top viable business ideas in the new media industry.


  1. SET UP YOUR OWN ONLINE RADIO STATION: you can set up your own online radio station and start streaming your productions and podcasts online. If you are creative talkative you can seize this opportunity to run a business that is not common in Nigeria now. If you don’t like writing you can go into internet radio broadcasting. You can make money through a lot of ways while doing this business which includes; adverts, paid news and sponsored program. You can decide to have a mono program or a multi program. A mono program structure is when you only have only one program running on your online radio station for instance a motivational program, while a multi program structure is when you have different programs running on your online radio program and you have time schedule for each of them.
  2. SET UP YOUR ONLINE TV CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE AND BLIP.TV: with YouTube you can run a full fledge online television services. Once you are creative, there is no limitation to how far you can go by creating and sharing your videos online or even streaming them online. Even if you are an online journalist I will advise you to make sure you have your own video channel to also report your news visually. As it is in the online radio broadcast you can decide to either run a mono or multi program structure but I will advise you to start with mono program structure if you are operating on a low capacity and limited funding.
  3. RUN YOUR OWN E-ZINE: E-zine simply means electronic magazine. Running a magazine is not an easy business, it is very hectic especially when you don’t have the needed human resources that can facilitate your productivity, but if you are determined you can do it. To run an electronic magazine production business you have to get the at least a certain number of subscribers who are willing to get your magazine or you will build an eCommerce website and integrate a payment gateway through which people can pay online and download your magazine. You can just chose a particular sector and stick to it or you can equally produce a general interest magazine, all depends on your resources and the man power.
  4. SET UP AN ONLINE ADVERTISEMENT AGENCY: business we have today are now trooping to the online community to advertise their products, you can seize this opportunity to help companies advertise their products and services online. All you have to do is to go to the popular websites, blogs or social media with a good traffic and book a space, then reach out to companies and businesses and then have their products and services advertised on the spaces you have booked.

Setting up a new media company can be very tough and intimidating sometimes but the reward, fame and profits that comes from it is overwhelming. I assure you that this is a business you will establish today and start making a lot of money, in fact it is the business that is on board today.

          The job you are looking for will only make you to become one’s modern slave for the rest of your life. I was .in one company one certain day and it touched me deeply the way the Managing director was commanding and giving order to the workers as if they were goats or even a sheep in someone’s backyard, I asked a worker there to know if they are overwhelmingly paid that will warrant such an insult, I came to find out that their monthly take home is 12 thousand naira.

Think about it you that is still carrying your CV around looking for job, is this the kind of situation you want to put yourself into.

Anybody who is hardworking and passionate about making money online can do this business and make money. All you need is your passion and determination to do this business. Be you a graduate, an undergraduate, or even a school dropout. While I focused more on the graduates is because the graduates are the ones who are always desperate of what they will do to make money, get a job and avoid embarrassment of not doing anything many years after graduation.                                                                                                      
                                                          MAKE A BOLD STEP
 If you will make a bold step now and bid farewell to search of jobs and decide to set up your own business and think of employing others. Remember just a positive decision can turn your life around.

 There are many benefits you will while working from home.

Also you don’t need any assets just your laptop and modem. You can carry them along and do your business anywhere. If I will tell you this is a cool way of making money. This is not yahoo yahoo, this is not an illegitimate business it is legal business that has already made a lot of people millionaire, you too can join them. 

                      THE TOP HOME BASED ONLINE BUSINESS UNVEILED.
 • BLOGGING: Though this business is very demanding and need a lot of sacrifice, patience, commitment and hard work but in the long run it has the capacity of making you not just a millionaire but also a billionaire. Blogging is not a business you will establish today and expect to be earning millions with your blog in the next 24 hours. There are many benefits that comes with blogging they includes making you famous. Do you know that Linda Ikeji was a nobody before she took to blogging as a source of livelihood and fun today millions of Nigerians look up to that blog for the latest gist and updates in the country. It was like that to Uche Pedro a Nigeria pioneer blogger behind bellanaija.com all these bloggers got their fame while blogging. Also blogging can make you go places, you can be invited to a lot of local and international programs to deliver a speech, blogging can enable you sell your products and services to the people, blogging can also help you to contribute to the growth and development of your society. Therefore there are many positive things blogging can bring to you. I believe now you must have made up your mind to start blogging, all you need now is to get a blog. There are two ways we offer help in this regard, it is either we help you host your blog, with the sum of 10,000 naira you can get a standard blog or you can click here to host your blog yourself.
• INFORMATION MARKETING: To me information marketing is the grandmaster of all internet business. If you have a particular knowledge which you think will be of utmost importance to some people in the internet community, it is time to put it together, package it and get it out there for readers and information enthusiast to buy and read. But before you think of producing an information product that will sell like never on the internet you have to focus on the quality and make a lot of research to make sure you have good audience who will be ready to pay for and utilize your products without regretting spending their hard earn money unnecessary. Information products you can package includes eBooks which you can create with lulu.com, tutorial videos, audio books, Mp3s, Magazines and manuals. 
 • SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING: Some people have a very high profile social media account yet they are suffering, this is because they lack the basic ideas of what they will do to make money. If you have a large Facebook audience and friends and sizeable number of followers on twitter it is time for you to leverage on this privilege to make money through social media marketing. Social media is in trending today, there is no how you will finish discussion with someone in a day without social media coming in. That means, if you have the basic skills to build a good interpersonal relationship on social media, build a content that can capture the attention of people and sell out a company product and services I think a lot of money will start coming into your pocket. All you have to do now is to compile a proposal which states the detailed services of your company include the url of your social media account and submit to companies around your locality and if they accept your proposal you will embark on the project of marketing their products and services with yours and their social media account. But before embarking on this journey you should have been acquainted with what I call basic social media marketing skills which you must take time to learn.
 • WEBSITE DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT: if you have the skills and the knowledge of building a standard and functional website you also compile a proposal submit in the companies within your locality and f you are accepted to build their website for them then kudos to you, remember to have a functional website yourself before thinking of building a website for other companies. You don’t necessary need to know how to code with Php or asp before you can build a functional and dynamic website with open sourced CMS like joomla, drupal, magento and wordpress you can build any kind of website without necessary coding it from the scratctch. Make sure you engage the services of a reliable host and domain register just like domain king to avoid your client website suffering from technical inefficiency and consequently cause loss of visitors, click here to start hosting with domain king and enjoy the enormous benefits.  
 • FREELANCING: if you think you have one skill or the other which you can offer for few dollars or naira then freelancing will be of great importance to you. 

 • SET UP AN E-COMMERCE WEBSITE AND SELL WITHING YOUR LOCALITY: Ecommerce website is now an innovative tool which the business men use to sell their products online and reach out to more customers. You too can join and start selling your products online. You can start within your locality if you will not have the fund to cater for logistics, all you have to do is to advertise within your locality and also give out your url to your customers.
 • SET UP A MEMBERSHIP SITE: setting up a membership site will be a very good way to make cool money online. A paid membership site is site where people will pay to become member.
