Here’s what to do as a realestate CEO.

-
Image
1. Set up a simple office You don’t need a fancy space. Just a clean, quiet place with a desk, chair, internet, and a whiteboard. That’s enough to start. What matters is structure, not size. 2. Hire for roles, not vibes Don’t just hire your cousin because he’s loyal. Hire people for clear roles: - Admin: handles calls, documents, follow-ups - Sales rep: handles leads and inspections - Content person: handles social media and WhatsApp Even if one person does two roles, define it clearly. 3. Share duties with systems Use a notebook, Google Sheets, or Trello to assign tasks. Don’t keep everything in your head. Let your team know what to do daily. That’s how you stop micromanaging. 4. Start content marketing — it’s free People don’t buy land from who they don’t know. If you’re not showing up online, you’re invisible. Start posting stories, tips, site updates, and client wins. That’s how trust grows. 5. Train your team on video content Video is the new land brochure. People want to see, not...

5 emotional triggers that works only on Nigerians

-
Image
Here’s the bitter truth: they are not just selling products. They are selling emotions. And in Nigeria, emotions sell more than logic. If you want to attract bulk buyers in FMCG (that means fast-moving consumer goods like noodles, drinks, soap, toothpaste, etc.), you must speak to what they feel, not just what they need. Let me show you 5 emotional triggers that work especially well on Nigerians, backed by real data. 1. Community validation (Fear of being left out) Nigerians care deeply about what others are doing. A 2025 study showed that over 68% of Nigerian buyers are influenced by what their friends or fellow business people are buying. Use this in your advert: - “Over 200 retailers already restocked this product last week. Don’t be the last.” - “Join the top distributors in your area who are cashing out weekly.” 2. Fear of regret (Past pain) Many Nigerians have lost money before. They remember when they didn’t buy Indomie in bulk before price went up. Or when they igno...

How to build camera confidence

-
Image
Your voice starts shaking, your eyes dart around, and you wonder, “Who sent me message?” Maybe you’ve tried to shoot a video for your real estate listing or your small business, but after 10 takes, you still hate how you look or sound. You delete everything and tell yourself, “Maybe I’m just not good at this.” You’re not alone. Many realtors and self-employed students feel this way. You know you need to show up online. You’ve seen others doing it—posting videos, getting clients, building trust. But when it’s your turn, fear grips you. You worry about your accent, your background, your grammar, your face. You think people will laugh or ignore you. But here’s the truth: confidence on camera is not a gift. It’s a skill. And like every skill, it can be learned. Let’s start small. 1. Start with your phone camera Don’t wait for a fancy setup. Use what you have. Open your phone camera and talk to yourself. No pressure. Just say what you did today. Or explain a property like you’re...

What you should be doing everyday as a serious realtor

-
Image
Let’s be honest. The real estate market is crowded. Everyone is selling land. Some are even selling the same land you’re selling. So why should someone buy from you? Now think about this: when you want to buy something online, don’t you check reviews? Don’t you feel better when you see the seller’s face, hear their voice, and feel like you can trust them? That’s exactly how your buyers feel too. People don’t just buy land. They buy trust. And trust starts with seeing your face. That’s why, as a serious realtor, one of the most powerful things you can do daily is create short videos with your face in them. Talk about the land you’re selling. Show the location. Explain the benefits. Answer common questions. Share stories of people who bought and are happy. When people see your face often, they begin to feel like they know you. They start to trust you. And when it’s time to buy land, guess who they’ll call? You. Let me give you an example. There’s Chinedu in Enugu. He used to ...

Land Title: What you should know about it before buying land.

-
Image
In a 2021 study by Nnamdi Azikiwe University, it was found that over 60% of private land transactions in Anambra State were not properly registered with the Ministry of Lands. That means more than half of the people who think they own land may not have full legal rights to it. That’s like building a house on sand and hoping it won’t fall when the rain comes. Let’s break it down with a simple example. Imagine you bought a plot of land in Awka from a man who claims to be the eldest son of a family. He shows you some papers, you pay him, and you start building. After roofing your house, another man shows up with a court order, claiming the land belongs to his late father and that the person who sold it to you had no right. You go to court, spend money on lawyers, and after years of stress, the court rules against you. Why? Because you didn’t have a registered land title. A land title is not just a paper. It is your legal shield. It is what proves that the land is truly yours i...

How to create content as a Realtor

-
Image
This is the pain many new realtors in Anambra face. You have what people need, but they don’t see you or believe you. That’s why you must create content. Content is how people know you, trust you, and buy from you. Start by using your phone. Take clear pictures of the land or house. Record short videos explaining the location, price, and why it’s a good deal. Post these on WhatsApp, Facebook, and Instagram. Talk about land documents, how to avoid scams, and how to buy land in Anambra. Show your face. Speak with confidence. Be honest. When people see you often and learn from you, they begin to trust you. And when they trust you, they buy from you. End. Ngwanu. Bye 👋. —Jbm Sopuruchukwu  JBM Advertising Agency | Media and marketing Expert.

How to correct negative press that has spread across the internet

-
Image
That’s the power of negative press. One bad story can scatter years of hard work. But the truth is, you can survive it. You can even come out stronger—if you handle it like a pro. So, how do you handle negative press? First, don’t panic When bad news hits, your first reaction might be anger or fear. You want to fight back immediately. But wait. Take a deep breath. Panicking will only make things worse. People are watching how you respond. If you act out of emotion, you may say or do something that will damage your reputation even more. Understand the situation Ask yourself: Is the story true? Is it half-truth? Or is it completely false? You need to know what you’re dealing with. Sometimes, the press is reporting what they heard. Other times, it’s a deliberate attack. Either way, you must understand the root of the issue before you respond. Respond wisely If the story is false, don’t keep quiet. Silence can look like guilt. But don’t go shouting either. Release a calm, clear...
