@therealbelano Good morning. Just wanted to confirm if the slots for the cybersecurity training are still opened. If yes, kindly highlight next step(s). If no, then many congrats to all those that are locked in

@ronaldnzimora Copywriting is part of vocations that are undervalued in the society. Not bad but framed as replaceable (AI as an example you just sighted).

Good news is, they can upgrade by adding complimentary skills and better positioning and boom, it all changes

@rajsinghchohan @shemsifcb Just curious @rajsinghchohan, do you still view this the same after 2+ years considering their performances in said time too

[Y.K @daddyinx]

You close unfamiliar deals by first being seen as low-risk, helpful, and reliable, not by pitching premium. Oh, one more thing, developers should focus on designing a client journey that can lead to a long-term retainer or trusted partnership instead of short-term payouts.

[Y.K @daddyinx]

Awesome 🙏🏼. Pitching to Headies means he wants to establish a business. If you want to win in it, think like a business person and not just a developer. Need to understand where your client’s money come from, then start with accessible offers, and build trust over time.

[J.I @Justice_Israell]

Let me guess — you approached them as a solo developer, right?

No official company? No branded letterhead? No detailed project breakdown explaining why your offer was worth $2,000 each? Were you positioning yourself as a proper business entity or just “one guy” pitching a service?

Your effort and confidence are commendable, no doubt. Taking that step shows guts. But the truth is, your proposal was poorly structured and unrealistic for the Nigerian market.

I’ve said this countless times:
“This is Nigeria — nobody will easily count $4,000 and hand it over just to revamp a website.”
(Maybe a very rare few will, but most won’t.)

Many of you are trapped in the fantasy world you see here on X (Twitter), thinking every deal is like what a lucky few show off. But that’s not the real terrain for most Nigerian businesses.

If I were Headies, I’d have also said, “You’re too expensive.”
And I would have been right.

Why?

⸻

Key Points:

• In business, a fine, functional website doesn’t always translate into more money — especially when the company’s core revenue doesn’t depend on the website.

(Ask yourself: why does Opay have a sleek app but a basic website? Why is Dangote’s site so simple despite the billions they make?)

• Headies’ revenue isn’t tied to their website.
Whether their website is beautiful or ugly, they’ll still get sponsors, shows, and TV airtime. Their money isn’t trapped behind a “redesign.”

• You should have proposed a lower entry offer — maybe $500 or $800 — and pitched ongoing work: maintenance, updates, campaign landing pages, voting systems, etc.
Over time, those smaller fees would have stacked up to even more than $4,000 — but you would have first gotten your foot in the door.

• In tech and business, technical skill alone isn’t enough.
You must be strategic: Sometimes the smartest move is to play the long game, not always chasing an immediate big payout. Build relationships, deliver small wins, get trusted, then you name your price later.

⸻

The bitter truth?
10 years from now, most people will look back and realize:
“I could have collected $500 four times, built a relationship, and ended up with $5,000, $10,000, or even more — instead of pricing myself out of the deal at the very beginning.”

But like I always say, some will agree, some won’t.
In the end, experience will teach it better than tweets ever will.

P.S
You may have a lost a second chance to renegotiate by posting tagging them on X.
