Once again, lets ask, what makes internet knowledge important Internet Enterprise is not an end, but a means to several ends! So, acquiring knowledge on Internet Enterprise will put you at the edge of gaining means to several ends. In addition, it will awaken and channel you to take the spirit of a true entrepreneur; someone who will not create a business for himself, but will create a business that is capable of creating businesses for others.Meanwhile, last week, I assured you that I will share an interview I had with Oluniyi David Ajao, an Internet entrepreneur, to further motivate and give insight into my readers. Please enjoy it:Who is Oluniyi David Ajao I am an Internet Entrepreneur and blogger. I am the MD of West Africas leading web host, Web4Africa Ltd. Web4Africa has been in operation since 2002 and I have been running my personal blog since 2005.What inspires your interest in Internet EnterpriseI am a technology enthusiast and enjoy applying technology to daily life, in a meaningful way. The Internet is at the cutting-edge of technology today. I also like to multiply money. I enjoy increasing a given capital into higher returns. Merging the two interests, one would see that Internet entrepreneurship comes naturally for me.Has there been anytime you wanted to disengage from Internet VentureThough running an Internet-based venture from this part of the world is very challenging, I have never been tempted to quit. I am enjoying the challenge. After all, nothing worthwhile comes easy. If we dont offer the world-class services to residents of West Africa, who wouldDo you consider Internet business as an alternative source of income or should there be more focus on it for economic developmentThere is no such thing as Internet business. The Internet is not an end in itself. It is only a means to an end. It is an empowering tool that, when applied properly, can offer limitless possibilities. Though there are businesses that run on the Internet exclusively, brick-and-mortar stores can also apply theInternet to their business operations for more efficiency and cost-savings. The possibilities are limitless.Your type of business and business model would determine if you offer services exclusively over the Internet or partially.How would you describe home-based Internet businessIt offers limitless opportunities to the smart. It is relatively easy to start as there are no huge capital requirements. All you need is an Internet-enabled computer, a business-oriented mind and the requisite skill-set for the business.How much would you encourage a Newbie to invest on acquiring knowledge about Internet enterpriseKnowledge is invaluable. I dont believe there should either be a minimum amount or a maximum. Each individual would need to decide on how much they can budget for acquiring knowledge. There are a lot of free articles and even websites that offer academic information for free. It also helps to invest in books from experienced entrepreneur. Their practical experience is far better than all the theoretical information you can read.What is the hope for Internet business in Nigeria and Africa at largeThe Internet is the future and the future is here already. More businesses would apply the Internet to their operations, in varying degrees. The airlines, banks, newspapers have already led the way.Do you have any word for anybody who wants to go into Internet businessDoing business over the Internet is nothing special. Basic business principles still apply. It requires a lot of smart thinking, hard work and perseverance.What do you think is missing in the way Internet business is practised in NigeriaThere are lots of infrastructural problems in Nigeria, and so it is difficult to blame the practitioners. Improvement in telecommunications, road networks, availability of capital, etc should make things better. The opportunities are boundless.What can be done about thisThe government needs to match their words with action by making the business environment more conducive for young entrepreneurs. Higher institutions need to empower undergraduates with entrepreneurship skills so some graduates can create jobs instead of being under-employed.LastlyI have decided to let you interpret and deduce from the Interview as related to the subject. Call in now to register for an Internet course whose registration closes on January 15th.Contributed By Olu Oludimu 08051614052 www.shortreportmoney.com
