𝗜 𝗟𝗜𝗘𝗗 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗦𝗜𝗫 𝗙𝗜𝗚𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗦 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗛𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗘𝗡𝗘𝗗

A few weeks ago, I shared my story about how I started my journey as a graphic designer. (If you haven't read it yet, it's still there; check my previous posts.) I mentioned how I began earning multiple six figures by offering digital services and how I previously earned very low five figures working 22 hours a day.

I shared my story here to encourage those who were once like me that there's definitely hope, as long as they're determined not to quit.

And I'm glad the story served its purpose; I received reviews from a good number of people and some comments, especially on Facebook.

Yeah, the story was also published on my LinkedIn profile.

By now, you might be wondering if everything I said was a lie. Well, none of the chapters were lies. In fact, what I shared were just significant parts of the story; the struggles I overcame were even more intense than what you read.

There were days I cried bitterly, days I felt like committing svic*de, and days I slept outside because I was homeless.

So, yeah, I chose not to talk about those type of days and focused on the main reason I shared my story.

You can't expect just five chapters of a few words to cover everything that happened in over three years. I had to make the story brief.

If I never lied, then why am I making this post? Well, it's exactly the reason it took me long to share a bit of my story.

I would have talked about my journey as a graphic designer before now, but I was skeptical about the outcome.

What will people start expecting me to live like?

What would they expect me to do and not do?

Won't I end up living a fake life because of people's expectations of me after reading my story?

I was earning six figures and still lived a simple life on a low-key.

If I hadn't told you what I earn, you would never have known.

In fact, before this post, I received an alert of ₦50,000, which is something I would have worked 22 hours for two months straight before starting digital skills.

This isn't to say I make money easily; trust me, it's not that easy.

But I started getting different types of messages requesting my help, a lot of them – from people I knew, know, and didn't know.

Billing left and right, back and front. Trust me, I give what I have, and no matter what, reaching out to me when I don't have, I will clearly tell you I don't.

Even the Bible says love your neighbors as yourself, not more than yourself. Yes, I make money, but I also invest back in my business.

I didn't just start by making six figures; I started by making recharge cards, then ₦1,000, ₦2,500, and before I started making ₦10,000 and more.

Why? What happened that made me not settle for less? I believed I could do better, and I set challenges.

Mostly, I invested back in myself. I started my journey with a Techno Spark 8 Pro, nothing more.

Now I have a laptop, generator, and three phones.

All these aren't to show off but to tell you that even with my six-figure earnings, I'm still working hard, setting goals and investing back in myself and not spending lavishly.

Being broke doesn't come from what you have; it comes from what you can provide. And what you can provide comes from how much you've invested

Time investments, financial investments, and many other sacrifices you make to get where you are.

So please, stop coming to my DM, especially those of you who think you can manipulate me to get me to help.

I genuinely know most are passing through hard times. But at the same time, I won't appreciate manipulations.

I never lied about my earnings, but at the same time won't appreciate manipulations coming to my DM in the name of help.

𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗖𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗩𝗘𝗟𝗬 :
How I moved from earning zero to high six figures by embracing a digital skill.

___________________________________________

𝗠𝘆 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗿. (Part 5)

In my previous post, I mentioned how I started a new set of business ideas, which included indirectly selling data to my WhatsApp audience. This was when I began to recognize graphic design as a valuable skill.

I realized I needed designs to promote my data-selling business, even though I didn’t yet know they were called flyers.

To get started, I reached out to my friend who was assisting me with design projects at the time.

Honestly, he did his best, but since I wasn't paying him, So I felt inconvenienced, even without him complaining.

He had gained admission to school and was in his second semester of his first year in September 2022. He helped me with my designs several times, all done for free.

At one point, I needed to adjust the prices of my data packages when the website I was using for cheaper data had increased their original rates.

This meant I also needed to raise my resale prices. I reached out to him for help with the flyer design.

However, he was busy with school, and I almost lost a sale because of it. Thankfully, he came through for me just in time.

This experience made me think, “What if I learned how to do this myself? At least I wouldn’t have to disturb him every time I needed a design.” I decided to speak with him when he returned from school.

I asked what app he used for his designs, and he told me it was PixelLab. I downloaded the app but had no idea how to use it yet.

I never considered checking YouTube for tutorials because I thought, “Who would create a tutorial for a lame app like that?”

Don’t blame me; I was still ignorant and had no idea that YouTube is a powerful learning tool. I had only used it for movies back then, thinking that was all it was good for.

I watched videos of people playing musical instruments, and explaining chord progressions but I didn’t realize I could learn so much more on YouTube.

So, I begged my friend to teach me how to use the app. Honestly, he did his best. He introduced me to how to import elements from my phone into the app, change element colors, locate shapes and typography, and the basics I needed in other to get started.

Now I know my ways around the app, and With the basic knowledge I acquired, I opened the app and designed the flyer attached to this post, unaware of what graphic design principles were.

I thought I was now qualified to be a graphic designer after creating my first design almost on my own. Little did I know that my creative journey had just begun.

I explored the app and rebranded my weekly giveaway by presenting airtime through pictures. This made the giveaway more engaging, and I started to fall in love with my audience and the energy they brought. It was a lot of fun, but little did I know it wouldn't last. 😫

I wanted to create a specific type of design, so I decided to reach out to my friend for guidance.

When he sent me a video tutorial, I felt bad for two reasons. First, the data for the video was high, and I thought, “I’m not paying this guy, yet he’s using his own data to send me videos.” Secondly, he was on his way back from school, meaning he was trekking home while doing a screen recording to teach me for free.

I didn’t let him know my thoughts; I thanked him for his sacrifice and never forgot what he did for me. I decided to stop bothering him too much for designs, unless it was beyond my capability.

Although I still couldn’t call myself a graphic designer, but the last week in the month of September 2022 gave me another opportunity to learn.

I came across an advertisement for a webinar and it's smartphone graphic design training, and yes, it was also tagged as “FREE.”

This time, I joined the training not just because it was free, but I now have an idea of what graphic design is and I genuinely wanted to learn how to design.

I didn't join to learn a skill that could fetch me money, infact I didn't believe it can fetch a dime not to talk of high six figures.

I only join because I hoped to avoid disturbing my friend again, allowing him to focus on his studies without my constant distractions when I need a design for my growing businesses.

The training started on October 1, 2022, which marked the day I began to understand graphic design.

I realized it wasn’t just a joke as I once thought; it was a valuable skill (although I was still clueless about the money-making potential). I learned that what I had been creating were called flyers and that not all designs fall under the general category of "design," but each has its own specific name.

How did I start making six figures?

What happened to my WhatsApp TV?

What led me to choose this path?

If you'd love to hear more, comment "CONTINUE", and I’ll continue the story in my next post.

𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗖𝗨𝗥𝗜𝗢𝗦𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗧𝗢 𝗖𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗩𝗜𝗧𝗬
How I transformed my challenges into a six-figure income.

𝗠𝘆 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗿. (Part 4)

I believe if you've followed through Parts 1 to 3, you know how many troubles I've overcome working 22 hours a day to earn ₦26,000 and how I ended up starting a WhatsApp TV with the hope of earning by taking ads.

Before continuing, let me take you back to the first chapter, where I began my story.

Remember, I mentioned joining several graphic design trainings? I wasn’t interested in them back then but joined because they were labeled as “FREE,” and since I lost my job, I thought these webinars could be a good distraction and something to keep me occupied.

But, even after joining about four times, I never actually followed through with any of them, probably because I had no idea it was a skill, and I don't even care, I only join because I saw free.

If you don’t remember, you might want to go back to my previous posts and start reading from the beginning.

If you do remember, then let’s keep going because I’ll pick up from there.

When I started the WhatsApp TV, I got introduced to graphic design for the first time. I needed designs for the branding of the TV.

I needed a logo and flyers like I’d seen other TVs use.

Then I remembered two people I knew who used to edit birthday pictures.

Honestly, I didn’t consider what they did as a real skill.

I was still ignorant about digital skills back then.

To me, it was just simple editing, and I didn’t even know that what they created was called a “flyer.” I just referred to all designs as “designs.”

Anyway, they helped with my branding for free, which is why I didn’t fully value the skill at the time or realize people made money from it.

________________________________________________

As I shared in the last chapter (“From Lost Chances to New Beginnings”), I hinted at another opportunity that helped me make some money.

Here’s what I noticed:
Aside from running ads, many WhatsApp TVs earned around 20-30k daily by selling different app like data hack apps, spy apps, and other random tools.

Also noticed that people were actually buying these apps.

I decided to try it out.

I had no money to buy the apps, yet I advertised it as though I had it, with the hope that once I get a client that shows interest in buying, I will then use the money I'm paid to buy from another TV, then that way I would have the app myself and can continue selling and keeping the profits.

It worked, I sold a few apps, made some money, and used most of it to reinvest in my TV, placing ads on bigger TVs and hosting giveaways every Sunday.

This helped my TV seem bigger and more established, even though it was still small.

Soon, I started getting people who wanted to pay for ads, but I refused to take any because I didn’t want to risk my TV’s reputation by charging for ads that might not deliver leads.

Since I was still under 1,000 views, I decided to focus on reaching 2,000 before accepting paid ads.

I also tried making money through a Ponzi scheme called Xtraincome. For those who remember that platform, you probably relate to the experience. 😅😂

I used my TV to refer people and made a bit in referral bonuses, which helped fund more promotions.

________________________________________________

By now, If you've been following my story from Part 1, I’m sure you’re curious to know how I actually started with graphic design.

Funny enough, it all started because of the WhatsApp TV.

As I mentioned, I held weekly giveaways, offering airtime and data.

Some followers, though, couldn’t participate because they weren’t in Nigeria, and it bothered me that I couldn’t include everyone.

Not until one day, I saw an advert on another WhatsApp tv...

I know you might be wondering why I discovered a lot from WhatsApp ads.

Well, I had a WhatsApp tv I was trying to build, so I was studying a lot of TV to learn from their strategies which led me to see a lot of ads.

The Ads I saw was from a data vendor advertising a website where I could buy data cheaply to resell.

The same day, I saw another ad about buying social media followers at a low rate.

These ads sparked three ideas:

First, I could buy data at a cheaper rate for my weekly giveaways thereby spend less.

Secondly, I could create tutorials to teach people how to boost their social media platforms and resell followers.

Third idea, I could sell data to my audience, though I did that indirectly so as not to risk my TV’s reputation.

How WhatsApp tv go dey sell data..? 😂😂

A lot happened in between, but this period was when I really started understanding the value of graphic design.

It was around August/September 2022, and if anyone had told me that I’d start my first digital skill journey the following month, I wouldn’t have believed it.

On the first of October, I began the creative journey that changed my story, I began 𝗠𝘆 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗿.

Remember I mentioned how I've joined FREE trainings before, yet I left those groups...

𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗟𝗢𝗦𝗧 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘𝗦 𝗧𝗢 𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗕𝗘𝗚𝗜𝗡𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗦:

How I turned my struggles into six-figure success, and what happened when I thought I had lost everything.

𝗠𝘆 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗿. (Part 3)

Like I said in my previous post, my mentality back then was to buy the gadgets I’d need when I get to school, save up 200k, and apply for school.

That was exactly what I set out to do. I spent some of my savings from my previous job and my salary to get cooking utensils, not only because I don't like eating outside but it would help me save more money, also because once I eventually get to school, these things would save me the stress of struggling to buy them.

On getting back from my trip, I found that my gas cylinder, which was fully filled, had been stolen.

Out of the four pots that came with the set I bought, two were missing, and half of my food was gone.

And the fact that only half of everything I had was taken made me feel like maybe the thief was also a victim of job loss, like me.

Thieves usually rob to take everything, but this one left half of my food behind.

I even thought, If it were possible to split the gas cylinder in two, the thief might have done that instead of taking the whole thing.

Since that wasn’t possible, they took the full cylinder.

I also mentioned being suspended in my last post yes, I was indeed suspended. But it wasn’t just me; almost all the workers were suspended (not fired).

The reason was that the company faced challenges with sales, so they decided to suspend anyone who had been absent from work to reduce the number of workers and focus on the ones who were still punctual.

Although I took permission before traveling to see my parents, Yet, I still wasn’t considered.

Even some workers who hadn’t missed any days were also suspended.

They told us that once sales returned to normal, we could resume work again, which gave me hope that my job wasn’t lost for good.

Or so I thought, I didn’t know that I would never go back to that job.

I waited about two weeks, hoping to return to work.

The foodstuffs I’d originally bought were supposed to last a month, with plans to buy more and save some money once I got paid.

But since the thief had already taken half of my food and my gas cylinder, I struggled to make what was left last, and I had to keep borrowing an electric cooker to prepare meals.

At one point, I wondered if I was cursed or just plain unlucky. I knew how hard I worked and how much I tried, but every time I thought I was getting somewhere, everything seemed to fall apart again.

The little savings I had left, I sent to aid my sister with her school fees. It couldn’t cover all of it, but I hoped it would at least be a small help. This left me broke, and I was running low on food.

Realizing how tough the environment had become, I decided to leave and stay at my brother’s place, even though it was over two hours away from my job.

It felt better to stay at home rather than doing nothing at the company accommodation.

I left my remaining two pots, bucket, and other utensils at the Chinese company, hoping one day we’d be called back to resume work.

I also left my contact information with some colleagues, asking them to call me when we were asked to resume. Days went by with no news, and each time I called, some told me they also left.

Long story short, I started teaching musical instruments to some members of my church who were interested and one person who wasn’t from my church.

I wasn’t completely idle, but I still felt uneasy. My brother covered most of my expenses, and although he didn’t complain, it made me uncomfortable.

I tried to find another job, but most options were either too far and had no accommodation. The transport cost would have eaten up most of my salary.

One last job I tried to apply for required a registration fee of $750 before I could start working, which was over 500k in naira at that time.

Inwardly, I laughed and thought, Me, who was hoping to save 200k to go to school, now needs 500k just to start work? 😂

That was the last time I job-hunted. I was spending everything I had on transport without results, and I felt it was better to spend what was left on myself rather than wasting it looking for another job.

I continued teaching my students five days a week. Then, one day, as I was scrolling on my phone, I saw something that gave me my first-ever online business idea.

As I mentioned in the first chapter ("From Ignorance to Opportunity"), I started a WhatsApp TV channel.

I was scrolling and noticed a particular WhatsApp TV that charged a minimum of ₦7,000 for sponsored ads.

I thought, Why not start my own WhatsApp TV? At least if I reached 2,000 views, I could start taking ads and earning from it.

So, that’s exactly what I did. I brainstormed names and ideas and finally got started.

But I have a problem, which was how to reach people and generate leads to get the view that will get me the money that made me start the TV in the first place.

It's been almost two months without any update, I went back to check on my things. One of my pots was gone, all my spoons were missing, and I was left with almost nothing.

I ended up selling my cupboard to a lady who was still working there and left the place for good with my little stuffs that was remaining.

With the money from selling the cupboard, I managed to place some ads on larger WhatsApp TV channels, and soon enough, I started getting more leads.

I was happy to see things going as planned. A few weeks later, I hit 500 views but got stuck because I didn’t have any more money to invest in promotions to reach more people.

Still, I kept posting memes and content to entertain the audience I had, slowly growing my reach organically.

Then one day, as I was checking out other WhatsApp TVs, I noticed something else that gave me a new business idea that helped me earn some extra cash.

𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗦𝗘𝗧𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞 𝗧𝗢 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗧𝗛𝗥𝗢𝗨𝗚𝗛:

I moved from earning peanuts doing hard work to earning multiple six figures at my convenience.

𝗠𝘆 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗿 (Part 2)

Remember in my last post (From Ignorance to Opportunity), I mentioned how I lacked information about the digital space, the jobs I've done, and how I visited my parents after two years apart before an unpleasant event happened?

Yes, the event that almost made me give up my dreams was supposed to be my setback, yet it turned out to be my breakthrough.

________________________________________________

Let me take you a bit backward to how it all started again.

In the previous post, I mentioned working 22 hours a day as a POS attendant from 7AM to 6PM and as a Security guard from 7PM to 6AM.

But I did not mention how much I was earning and what led me to start working there.

When I left home in 2020, I left to LEARN work (not to start working), but unfortunately, I was learning and not earning, which made feeding difficult.

Whenever I got help from someone or earned from my talent as a music instrumentalist, I couldn't buy foodstuffs to keep at home.

Here's why: I squatted with four other people, making us five in one room, and these people were the real JAGABAN. 😂

I recall buying half a carton of noodles without their awareness. I emptied the noodles from the original carton, then kept them inside my Ecolac bag, also getting rid of any trace that I had bought noodles. In fact, I locked the bag with a key as usual.

Yet, when I got home from work the next day, I was greeted right in front of the door by dirty pots of noodles.

My heart sank, and all I could think was, Better not be what I'm thinking.

I got inside to find my bag destroyed, and out of the 18 packs I kept in my bag, 13 packs were gone.

I asked them who did it, but no one admitted it. In fact, they accused me of hiding it from them, and I let it go for peace to reign, though I was still very angry.

I hate eating outside, yet the situation forced me to do so, and it wasn’t worth it because I ended up spending more than if I had bought foodstuffs in bulk.

I decided that what I needed was to get a job and rent my own apartment.

I felt that would be better because if I left just one cup of garri at home, it would still be safe and intact when I got back from work.

I did some research and got introduced to an agent.

I had to leave the initial work I was learning to START working.

My morning shift as a POS attendant was supposed to pay me ₦15,000, and the same amount for my night shift as a security guard at a hotel. But I got these jobs through an agent who would take ₦2,000 from each job.

So I was working 22 hours every day (except Sundays when I didn’t work at the POS stand, though I still worked as a security guard) to earn ₦26,000 monthly.

When I inquired about renting a manageable face-me-I-face-you apartment, it was going to cost me between ₦45,000 - ₦50,000 yearly.

So I figured that working for 2-3 months should be enough to afford the apartment, and then I could quit these jobs and continue learning the work I had initially set out to learn.

Things didn't go as planned, I infact got into an heavy debt after I got scammed at the POS stand just few days to collecting my first salary, that's a story for another time.

________________________________________________

I ended up working as a motor boy for a water factory, and to be sincere, the job was way better than the ones I was doing before, and the pay was higher than my previous jobs combined.

Unfortunately, I quit the job for a good reason I wouldn't like to share publicly for the sake of privacy.

________________________________________________

Fast forward to when I started working at the Chinese company.

My mentality back then was to continue working, buy some gadgets I would need in school, save the sum of ₦200,000, apply for JAMB and go to school.

As if the 200k would be enough 😂😂

The Chinese company work was not easy, although to me then, the pay was big compared to the jobs I had done in the past.

The salary was ₦40,000+ working 7 AM to 7 PM, every day including Sundays (two weeks morning shift and two weeks night shift).

I wasn't comfortable because this cost me my church attendance, but I felt it was just for the meantime.

I was able to achieve some of my goals, which were to get some gadgets I would need when I got to school.

I got a constructed cupboard, bought myself a new set of pots, cooking utensils, and a 6KG gas cylinder filled with gas, and I filled the cupboard with foodstuffs purchased from some of my savings from the pure water job I did before and the salary received just before traveling to see my parents.

I spent three days away from work to say hello to my parents, but when I got back from the visit, I had been robbed, and as if that wasn't enough, I was also suspended from the Chinese job. 🥺

𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗜𝗚𝗡𝗢𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗧𝗢 𝗢𝗣𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗨𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗬:

I never knew I can ever earn six figures legitimately using my smartphone, yet I've always dream to earn at my convenience, wanting to be my own boss.

𝗠𝘆 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗿. (Part 1)

When I started out as a graphic designer, I knew nothing about the digital space.

I lacked information; I can say I was ignorant of what a digital skill was.

During COVID, I did a couple of Ponzi schemes biz.

Yet I was still ignorant of what a digital skill was. In fact, I was so out of touch that all I used my phone for was watching movies and posting memes on Facebook.

Life came at me fast. After secondary school, I needed to start working, and I remembered working 22 hours a day.

Yes, I was working two jobs:
POS attendant from 7 AM to 6 PM and Security at a hotel from 7 PM to 6 AM.

Except on Sundays, when I didn't go to the POS center, but still worked as security at the hotel.

A lot happened, which also made me phone-less but that's a story for another time.

Eventually, I worked two other jobs after I quit the POS and security jobs.

I worked as a motor boy for a pure water factory, and then I was able to get a new phone for myself.

After that, I moved to working in a Chinese company where I worked 7 AM to 7 PM for a few months before something happened that pushed me to start working online.

____________________________________

Let’s move the story a bit backward. While I was working as a motor boy for the water factory, I came across graphic design webinars via WhatsApp ads.

I joined, even without knowing what graphic design was, simply because the class was tagged "free."

I never followed up with the training; in fact, I never knew when the class was to start, that the second day, messages of the training started flooding in as soon as I turned on my data.

It provoked me, and I left the group because the messages were too much.

This wasn’t the only time it happened. I joined trainings like that about 3–4 times, but I always left the groups.

____________________________________

Back to the story:
I mentioned something happened to me.

Yes, since 2020, when I left home, filled with dreams and passion to earn and further my education someday.

I hadn’t seen my parents. It had been two straight years without setting eyes on them, their location was far away.

I couldn’t just decide to visit them because the fare was high, and I also lacked total freedom because of my job.

Then, the opportunity presented itself: my parents visited Lagos while I was working at the Chinese company in Ogun State, to be precise. They were closer to me now, and I could visit them in Lagos, which was about an hour away from where I was.

Then, the unplanned and unpleasant event happened to me which made me almost gave up on everything. 🥺😫😢

Almost a year ago, I designed this amazing and creative birthday design (manipulation) for my good friend Ezekiel Temitope Isaac

I got a very good number of persons requesting for a video tutorial on how they could achieve some effects I used on the Design that made it a unique one.

Well, it was a very busy time for me that I couldn't even create a tutorial for it, also this year I've not been very active on my YouTube channel as I was last year for a good reason though.

I'm back now and the very first thing I did was to ask if they're (my YouTube community) still interested and it turns out that a very good number of them are very much interested in the tutorial.
