In the last blog post, we talked about what data reselling is and how you can make good business with it through The Skulive VTU website. If you need a recap on it or just hearing about it for the first time, check out Data Reselling: The business of the Youth.
Another way to earn massively from Data Reselling is by having your own VTU website. With Skulive’s mission of “Creating Digital Superheroes”, you can have your website for more than 50% lower than the national market price. What does this mean? It means you can get a VTU website with your brand name, logo, prices and more for just 15,000NGN (Which is lower than the normal value of 60,000-70,000NGN).
But why does Skulive do this? To empower young people to make the most of their skills in the digital world.
BENEFITS OF A PERSONAL BRANDED VTU WEBSITE
Having a personal branded website means you will be completely in charge of everything in your website and all forms of digital profit goes to you only. Apart from the services in a VTU website, here are the other privileges explained in detail:
1. PERSONAL DOMAIN NAME
Have you noticed every website has a specific link tailored to it? In simple words, that’s what we Skulive Developers call a ‘Domain Name’. You will have a unique website link such hat whenever people input it in a browser anywhere in the world, it will take them straight to your website. Examples are www.blog.com ; www.iamagirl.com ; You can name it WHATEVER YOU WANT.
Of course, your business name and logo will also be included in this.
2. SET CHARGES FOR UTILITY SERVICES
When you request a POS Transfer, you are asked to pay a 100NGN for each withdrawal you perform. This is called a “service fee”.
In a VTU website, the utility services are:
A. Cable TV subscription Eg; GoTV, DSTV, Startimes.
B. Electricity Payments (Prepaid and Postpaid)
C. Exam Scratch Cards for Results (Eg: WAEC, NECO, etc)
D. Bulk SMS
In your website, these services will be sold at the normal national rate, but you will be able to set your service fee charge. For example, GoTV Jolli Bouquet is 3300NGN. You can set your charge at 30NGN. This means whenever anyone pays for a GoTV Jolli Bouquet subscription, they will pay 3330NGN , with 30NGN as your profit.
3. AUTOMATIC EMAILS
As the owner of the website, you can send automatic emails to your subscribers. Maybe you want to send an announcement about change in prices, or a discount; you wouldn’t have to type it to one person at a time. With a simple click of a button, you will be able to make your announcements to up to 50 subscribers per time.
4. CHEAP DATA API
Don’t sweat the small technical words. That’s for the Skulive Developers to handle. What we mean here is you have access to data at very cheap prices. Normally you would get 1GB of MTN Network for 1000NGN, but with the Skulive developers in charge of building your website, you will have access to the same products but for much lesser cost price such as 217NGN or even lesser for 1GB of MTN.
5. AUTOMATED BUSINESS (GAIN PROFIT WHILE SLEEPING)
The difference between the API costs and the price you set for your subscribers is your profit. As each subscriber uses a service, that difference in amounts is sent to your profit section. This is your gain from all their transactions. Let’s say the API gives you access to 1GB of MTN for 217NGN and you set your website price at 230NGN, it means you get N13 per transaction. That looks small, but what if 50 people buy 1GB MTN daily, how much is that in a month? Do the math and let me know in the comment section.
Also, you don’t need to be up all the time sending people’s requests to your website’s customers. The website is made with an automated system whereby customers are given whatever it is they ask for from the website such as data, cable TV subscription, etc.
6. HAVE DATA SELLERS AND WEBSITE SUBSCRIBERS
You must have noticed the word subscribers a couple of times in this post already. Subscribers are people who create a user account for them to access your website and purchase services for personal usage or for business.
Data resellers are those who create user accounts for business purposes, ie, to sell the services on your website to the public. All data resellers are subscribers, but not all subscribers are data resellers. Though, what people use their accounts for is completely none of your business, it is good to know the different ways it can be used.
HOW TO OWN A WEBSITE
You don’t buy a website, at least not technically except someone wants to sell an already created website to you. To get a website from scratch tailored with your designs and style, you need a website developer, and that’s where Skulive Digitals comes in to play.
“How to actually get it” might be the next question in your mind. Don’t worry yourself with how the behind-the-scenes work and no, you don’t need to know how to write codes. All you have to do is reach out to the Skulive Admin and you can discuss in detail what you need.
