Thank you so much, I love food and I love cooking, i started my food business in school a year ago, I’ve learnt a lot from my constant cooking and a lot of new recipes that I have created on my own and I really want to create content and enlighten people about healthy food and a lot more but i really don’t know how to start or should I say procrastination sometimes is my problem, how do I go about this

Thank you so much for this sir. I’m a Pharmacist and I’m currently building my brand centered around “Medication, medicine use and drugs” Hoping to educate as much as possible. Thank you so much. At the moment I’m having concerns about my post engagement so far and the solution as you’ve explained is that I’d definitely have to do more with commenting on other creators post. Thank you once again for this

Thank you so much for this gem. I think what got to me was where you talked about not always putting out your own content but commenting on the content of others in your niche.

Sometime last year I got this idea to reach and talk about crypto. The eventual end would be to monetise it. But it came to me as talking about “crypto from scratch”. Because everyday people seem to still feel overwhelmed to jump into this crypto stuff, so why not try to teach them what it’s about at the foundation.

I started with Twitter and in a way it feels like I’ve hit a roadblock… I dunno how to continue from here now and I just keep asking myself, what next do I post..? How do I move..?

Thank you again for this newsletter.

The best way to do this is to learn about crypto and share what you are learning with your audience.

But this will work best if you find an angle to crypto that you care about, that way you can be more consistent with learning and sharing.

Good day Sir Ajulu, I am interested in psychology and mental health. I would love to talk about them on WhatsApp but I don't know where to begin. Sometimes, I have content ideas but how to break them down into simpler form that people can grasp and understand easily is hard

Real great stuff ✉️

Thank you for your letter today, I learnt more what I will put to practice has I grow in Data Analysis

I am just starting and in few months I will love to have a community of secondary school students and undergraduates who wants to transition into Data analysis as a career.

I am open to suggestions and ideas on how I can achieve these

Thank you

Ajulu's avatar

First of all,

I believe that you need to focus on just one of these categories.

The undergraduates are a great start.

Learning a Tech Skill takes time and is intensive.

However, people who have four/five years in the university has a lot of times on their hands to learn.

You can guide them through the process of learning more during the school holidays and also periods of the semester that are a bit relaxed.

By the time they are done with school they will be very proficient in Data Analysis.

This will help them not just in the Tech Space but the traditional sector.

Also, you can make Data Analysis fun for them by intergrating it in their studies

E.g they can analyze school past questions and predict the next questions the lecturer will set.

What platform are you seeking to run this community on ?

Ugwu Chukwuka's avatar

Thank you for these sir.

I am seeking to you WhatsApp to build the community and then build an email/newsletter targeted to the community

For now I can learn to use these communities, if there are others I can use I can learn them while building

WhatsApp is a great start and helps foster a closer community.

You should only start the Newsletter when you have an engaged audience

1000 people is fine, but 3000 is also great.

Read this my WhatsApp guide and also get the course if you can:https://ajulu.substack.com/p/how-to-build-a-brand-on-whatsapp

I will personally help you with the community setup if you get the course

What niche in particular would you say that falls under

Expand full comment
Ayanfebaba's avatar

In the context of digital knowledge, you could call it something like "intellectual enhancers". Something that suggests that it will help improve the way people think, see themselves, get to understand the value they carry and process the information.

I don't know if you understand now.

Hello Ajulu. Thank you so much for this beautiful newsletter. It was indeed valuable resource.

My name is Emmanuel. I am a real estate agent based in Enugu state, Nigeria. I am currently building a community around my niche on YouTube channel and Facebook Business page. However, I am more focused on my YouTube channel than facebook.

My major concern now is how to grow my community, get more leads and clients through those platforms. Thank you so much. I will await your response, sir.
