So we’re on a mission to help 10,000 Africans in Diaspora thrive but we can’t do this without YOU.

Here’s where you come in


Hello, Buddy!

If I had to ask you about the most used social media apps, TikTok would probably top your list.

But, data says TikTok is way behind and last year, Facebook claimed the throne as the #1 most used social media platform.

Why does this matter? Well, everyone's starting to wonder if TikTok's venture into shops and e-commerce is chasing users away from the “once” most used social platform. Do you think so too? 🤔

In Today’s Email:

  1. Should you pack your luggage to X?
  2. 10 smart strategies to bring in fresh leads
  3. Story of the week: “You need the patience it takes not to smash an iPhone when it’s acting up’’
  4. Opportunity of the week: 2024 Tony Elumelu Foundation Entrepreneurship Programme

THE BIG IDEA

Should You Pack Your Luggage To X?

First, it was Elon Musk paying Twitter X users for engagements on their posts, and of course, many people began tweeting aggressively to spark conversations. I mean, who says no to a credit alert?

Now, it's Mr Beast making $260k on a single video on X!

Just for context, that was precisely the amount of money those dudes who tried using the submarine to see the Titanic,  paid to get in. Exactly, it's a huge amount of money to make from a single video.

And it's because advertisers were pretty sure it would perform well so they bought a significant amount of ad slots. Plus, the streets say that X may have somewhat assisted in pushing the video further. But does it matter?

Your video may be the next to gain $250k on X so do well to check this out.

Oh, and Mr Beast is giving out $25k i.e. 34m if you engage with his account. This particular tweet by a Nigerian sent me rolling.

Here’s What’s Up!

Should I say more or you get the gist, already? Yes, we want to start something for Africans in the Diaspora, and we need your input to make it work.

Can you spare about 30 seconds of your time to fill out a short form, please?

STORY OF THE WEEK

“You Need The Patience It Takes Not To Smash An iPhone When It’s Acting Up…”- Onyinye

I just wrapped up an amazing conversation with Onyinye Ezulufor from Union Bank Nigeria. Her story involves a mix of history, international studies, and military expertise, all rolled into one fantastic customer service manager, storyteller, and founder of Tawer Africa.

The level of patience required in customer service is immense especially when dealing with people who may be going through tough times. It’s the kind of patience that prevents you from smashing your iPhone when it’s acting up…
