Find an office where people can find you.

The right location is the second most important thing you need to consider.

One of my clients was running a laundry business, and he rented an office inside a gated residential building. Visitors have to call or knock before they could open the gate.

I told him that his kind of business should have a shop in an open area where people can easily see what they do and naturally walk in. But he believed running advertising could help him get more clients than relying on walk-in customers.

If it is a tech company, that is understandable. But for a service business like laundry, you can get more loyal customers organically through a good location than through paid advertising.

This applies to businesses like boutiques, restaurants, hospitals, schools, salons, pharmacies and other businesses where customers need to physically visit you.

I'm the founder of Hisnak Marketing & Business Growth Services.

We work with businesses that are struggling with sales growth, brand communication, customer acquisition and retention, even though they offer valuable products and services.

Most of them face one (or more) of these issues:

1. Not attracting the right clients/customers.

2. Low conversion from leads to paying clients/customers.

3. Weak online visibility and brand trust.

This usually happens because they don’t have a strong offer or clear value communication.

We help these businesses handle that – acquiring clients/customers for them, communicating their brand identity clearly, closing sales, building online presence, and managing social media pages – so they can focus on running their businesses.

If this is relevant for your business, please email me back at [email protected] or WhatsApp me on +234 816 513 5193.

People Buy Solutions, Not Products

Many business owners spend too much time talking about what they sell and too little time talking about the problems they solve. Customers don't buy products; they buy the benefits and results those products bring.

Instead of saying: "We sell shoes."

Say: "Our shoes help you look confident, classy, and elegant wherever you go."

Below are examples for different industries in Nigeria:

Fashion: We help you look professional, stylish, and confident.

Real Estate: We help families find safe, comfortable homes and secure investments.

Education: We help students gain knowledge, skills, and better career opportunities.

Digital Marketing: We help businesses attract customers and increase sales.

Transportation: We help people travel safely, comfortably, and on time.

Healthcare: We help people stay healthy and live better lives.

Food Business: We provide delicious, hygienic meals that save customers time and effort.

ICT & Software: We help businesses work faster, smarter, and more efficiently.

Photography: We help people preserve their most important memories.

Financial Services: We help people manage, save, grow, and protect their money.

Agriculture: We provide quality food and raw materials that improve lives and businesses.

Cleaning Services: We help homes and offices stay clean, healthy, and welcoming.

Marketing Tip: Before promoting your product, ask yourself: "What problem does this solve, and what result does it give the customer?" Focus your message on the result, not just the product. That's what makes people buy.

Many business owners believe that once they have a good product, customers will automatically come. Unfortunately, that is not how business works.

A successful business needs a complete marketing system. Marketing is not just advertising. Marketing includes everything you do to attract customers, convince them to buy, keep them buying, and turn them into loyal supporters.

Let's look at the major parts of marketing and how you can apply them in Nigeria.

1. Branding – Who Are You?

Your brand is what people think and feel when they hear your business name.

Examples:
Your business name
Logo
Colors
Customer service
Reputation
Packaging

If two people sell the same pure water, many customers will buy from the one with better branding because it appears more trustworthy.

How to apply it:
Use a professional business name.
Create a simple logo.
Use the same colors everywhere.
Be known for something specific.

2. Advertising – Getting Attention

Advertising means paying to get your business in front of people.

Examples:
Facebook Ads
Instagram Ads
TikTok Ads
Google Ads
Radio adverts
Newspaper adverts
Billboard adverts

How to apply it:
If you sell shoes in Lagos, run Facebook or Instagram ads targeting people in Lagos who are interested in fashion.

No matter how good your product is, people cannot buy what they don't know exists.

3. Promotion – Giving People a Reason to Buy

Promotion encourages people to take action quickly.

Examples:
Buy 1 Get 1 Free
Discounts
Referral rewards
Free delivery
Bonus gifts

How to apply it:

Instead of saying:
"Buy this cream."

Say:
"Buy today and get free delivery."

Promotions increase sales faster.

4. Customer Acquisition – Getting New Customers

Customer acquisition means bringing new customers into your business.

Methods include:
Social media marketing
Referrals
Advertising
Partnerships
WhatsApp marketing
Influencer marketing

How to apply it:
Ask every satisfied customer to refer one friend and reward them for doing so.

5. Sales – Converting Interest into Money

Many people advertise but don't know how to sell.

Sales is the process of turning interested people into paying customers.

How to apply it:
Respond quickly to enquiries.
Explain benefits clearly.
Answer objections.
Follow up.

Many sales are lost because business owners stop following up too early.

6. Customer Retention – Keeping Existing Customers

It is usually cheaper to keep an existing customer than to find a new one.

A customer who buys once should buy again.

How to apply it:
Follow up after purchase.
Offer loyalty rewards.
Send updates.
Give excellent customer service.

If 100 customers buy from you every month and keep coming back, your business becomes more stable.

7. Relationship Building – Creating Trust

People buy from people they trust.

Trust is one of the most valuable assets in business.

How to apply it:
Be honest.
Deliver what you promised.
Reply to messages.
Respect customers.
Solve complaints quickly.

In Nigeria, word-of-mouth remains one of the strongest marketing tools.

8. Content Marketing – Teaching Before Selling

People do not like being sold to all the time.

They prefer businesses that educate them.

How to apply it:

If you sell phones:
Teach people how to identify fake phones.
Share phone maintenance tips.
Post useful technology updates.

When people need a phone, they will remember you.

9. Referral Marketing – Let Customers Bring Customers

Happy customers can become your sales team.

How to apply it:
Give customers rewards for bringing new buyers.

Many Nigerian businesses grow faster through referrals than through advertising.

10. Reputation Management – Protecting Your Name

One bad review can discourage many potential customers.

How to apply it:
Treat customers well.
Solve problems professionally.
Encourage satisfied customers to leave reviews and testimonials.

The Business Growth Formula

Branding → Advertising → Promotion → Customer Acquisition → Sales → Customer Retention → Relationship Building → Referrals → More Sales → Business Growth.

Most struggling businesses focus only on selling.

Growing businesses build systems for branding, advertising, promotion, customer acquisition, customer retention, and relationship building.

Whether your business is online or physical, if you consistently apply these principles, your chances of growth will increase significantly.

Remember: A great product is important, but if nobody knows about it, trusts it, buys it, and comes back to buy again, the business will struggle to grow.

Many years ago, most Nigerians could not afford to buy large packs of milk. Then companies like Cowbell introduced milk in small sachets, making it affordable for millions of low-income Nigerians.

And it worked.

More people could buy milk, more families could enjoy a product that was once considered too expensive, and the company's sales increased greatly.

Behind every successful product you see today is someone who spent months, and sometimes years, thinking about how to make life easier, more comfortable, and more affordable for other people.

The lesson is simple:

If customers cannot afford your product, don't always look for richer customers. Sometimes, it is better to create a smaller and cheaper version of what you offer.

Examples:

✅ Break a ₦100,000 course into ₦10,000 modules.

✅ Offer a basic package before a premium package.

✅ Sell products in smaller quantities.

✅ Allow customers to try your offer before buying the full version.

The companies that win are not always the ones with the best products. Many times, they are the ones that make their products easiest to buy.

Question:

How can you "sachetize" your product or service to reach more customers today?
