Monday Motivation: In branding,what matters most is Your Voice!

Monday Motivation

Do you have a business you have been running for so long, and nothing positive has happened so far. You have put in your best, worked according to timelines and even exceeded some timelines, but the business hasn't progressed beyond the surface level. So what next? Do you keep asking the same questions you ask yourself everytime or you look for experts to help you out,or better still put in more work by researching and creating awareness for your brand? Whatever your decision, you know one thing is sure, and that is the goal you are looking to achieve with your brand, so you bare that in mind and not loose focus.

Is Black Friday a Fad?


Okay, the long awaited black friday is here, the biggest sales invention by the Americans. Its no longer news that black friday has migrated all over the world, and even though we are yet to adopt the Thanksgiving day that ushers in the black friday, which will be very absurd in my opinion, Nigerians and other countries world wide have openly accepted or rather should I say adopted Black Friday. Many thanks to online businesses in Nigeria though, especially Jumia and Konga for being the first online stores to usher in Black Friday in this region(I might be wrong though).

Spending your Christmas holiday in Nigeria? Then you should check out these Resorts!

Hello good people,

It's another day for review(yaayy), well I think review isn't the word per-se, because I havn't been to any of the places I'm about to write about.I discovered these resorts  in my quest for a Naija holiday, as per dollar don become untouchable and the ticket prices on all the airlines even to Ghana which is 45mins flight away is not smiling. So I decided to look inward this year,(yes thats the way to go my dear readers),inorder to help other Nigerian families going through the change era to have a decent holiday within their local currency earnings at pocket friendly prices.

I will be telling you about four placesout of the 10 resorts I discovered. These Nigerian resorts are great for families or couples, and I'm sure you will have a wonderful Christmas with your loved ones by visiting any of these resorts. I have read google review on most of these resorts and that is why I thought I should share them with you all.

EPE RESORT AND SPA

This resort is particularly good for a family or couples who are looking for a very relaxed atmosphere, where they can ease off the hustle and bubble of Lagos city or any other over active city in Nigeria. Its located in Epe,on the outskirt of Lagos State and it boast of an experience that can only be imagined. This resort is built in chalets, giving you and your loved one that privacy you deserve.They are offering a Christmas package for couples or group of friends this Christmas. To see the indoor and outdoor activities they provide, visit  Epe Resort .

Donald Trumps Hillary...

Trump and Clinton


It is no longer news that today will forever be remembered in the history of American politics. The day Donald Trump won the race to the white house against a very strong female contender in person of Secretary Hillary Clinton, the madam secretary herself.


Against popular believe and polls preceding the election night, very few people envisaged the final result to be in favour of the newly elected President.


Right now, all the world has to do alongside the Americans is to watch how events will unfold in the coming days, months, and years.


As Nigerians continue to  nurse their new change, so is Britain nursing its Brexit. 


We wish the President Elect, Donald Trump the best as he takes on the responsibility of the most powerful man in America.

According to dailymail.co.uk,  British households are increasingly ditching their morning bowl of cereal in favour of healthier alternatives such as smoothies and fresh fruit, apparently we are also in the fitfam phase in Nigeria, where a large percentage of the working class are eating more of veggies and smoothies to keep a healthy life style.
