WeChat

WeChat is worlds greatest messaging service with over 1 billion active users , delivering over 100 billion messages worldwide, and Guess what? It doesn’t even have a post office neither does it own a telecommunication company.

How the Internet is Affecting us Locally

For example here in Nigeria, The company with the highest number of hotel , Jovago – doesn’t even own a single hotel .
Just last year (2015) Konga processed a sales of over 100 million Naira in 4 hours.
Even Konga has over 250,000 products in their product catalog, show me a store in Nigeria with such number.
Did you know that In one single day Alibaba made a sales of over $14.3 billion which is equal to N5,720,000,000,000 (Five Trillion, seven hundred and twenty billion Naira)  when converted to Naira @ 400 Naira to a Dollar (The current dollar price). Guess what? the Nigerian budget for 2016 which is the highest ever, and it was even padded was estimated at  2,600,000,000,000 (Two trillion, six hundred billion Naira) so what this means is that an internet company based in China made more than double of Nigeria’s yearly budget in a single day. Wow!! this is amazing.
If facebook was to be a country, it will be the most populated country in the world, with an active monthly users of over 1.71 users. Even the China Population is just over 1.357 billion people according to the 2013 census.
Did you noticed that the top 10 richest people in the world all have or invested in online businesses?
So with all this facts , do you still need a prophet to tell you that you need to get your business online or get website for your business ? I guess no. We now live in a world where you can’t run a viable sustainable and profitable business without the internet.
If you are still waiting, like i said at the beginning of this article , you might just become obsolete in some years time. Get Online now, Get a website today
