My Coding Journey

-

Hello guys,

So today, I'll love to gist you about my new experience coding with HTML.

Before I unravel the coolness and fun of my coding lessons, I'll love to tell you a tiny little secret. But first, you have to promise me you'll keep it a secret - lol. Okay, just kidding though. What I'm about to share is not a secret perse but a life long dream.

Well, for over a decade now, I've had this strong desire to learn to code and run not only the basic computer programs but also do the most advanced programming computer gurus do. Sadly though,  I've not really had the guts to pursue this life long dream until recently. I just had this wrong perception that computer programming and coding is for the most brilliant guys whose brain is framed in some aliens planet or thereabout.

Don't mind me please, now I know better. Coding and programming is not as difficult as we've been made to believe or wrongly perceived it to be. I am now set to explore the world of programming and "Pirple" is giving me a whole world of fun doing that. Don't worry, if you'll love to know more about  Pirple, just drop me a comment and I'll gladly show you the endless possibilities.

Now, back to my gist. *Smiles* thought I've forgotten? Hell No!

Thus far, Pirple has been putting me through HTML basics including Introduction to HTML and HTML lists.

This may not count much right now but trust me, I'm already so excited about my baby steps. Did you know that I wrote a few lines of HTML code on how to prepare my favorite meal? lol. So if you'll love to know what my favorite meal is and most especially what my code looks like, check here:


<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

  </ol>
        <!These are the preparation steps>

Dear Business Starter, 10 COMMANDMENTS FOR BUSINESS STARTERS. 1. Thou Shall Not start a business without having a feasible business plan in place and some basic consultations no matter how small. 2. Except typically necessary, Thou Shall Not rent a shop/office, if it will bite into more than 50% of your startup capital. Negligence to this is a fast way to failure before you start. 3. Thou Shall Not hire staff you do not have at least 6months financial plan to cater for. 4. As much as possible, Thou Shall Not start a long term business with a short term loan. You will only put yourself under undue pressure and eventually shoot yourself on the foot. 5. Thou Shall Not start a business basing all your patronage expectations on family and friends. Most times they don't patronize jack! 6. Thou Shall Not divert your business capital into frivolities. Remember, when you spend money on what you don't really need, you end up lacking what you would really...

My Coding Journey 3

Hello guys, Now I'm here again to update you about my coding journey so far. Could you all believe I am now 41% done with my course on HTML and CSS - just like yesterday. I'm super glad at the frontend developer I'm gradually becoming. So far, I've learned about HTML lists, HTML tags, HTML images as well as HTML links. My project is centered on creating  a simple website about my favorite book ensuring to include some common HTML tags along the way. Kindly find the code below. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head>   <meta charset="utf-8">   <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">   <title>JS Bin</title> </head> <body> <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head>   <meta charset="utf-8">   <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">   <title>JS Bin</title> </head> <body> ...

WHY YOU SHOULDN'T JUST HIRE MARKETERS

-

If you ask the average Nigerian Entrepreneur starting out in business, "how do you intend to attract customers and drive sales in your business?" You can almost guess what the answer would be. "I'll just hire Marketers who would go out and bring in the sales". They'll mostly respond. Guess what? I can boldly say that the larger percentage of business failure we experience with Nigerian Entrepreneurs could be attributed to this assumption that: Hiring Marketers = Automatic Sales. But here's the thing. Sales in business, and business growth relies solely on 80% STRATEGY, and 20% MARKETING. The 80:20 principle comes alive again. Now, what's the better approach?  I'll paint 2 scenarios of how my firm works with our clients and I believe that will make obvious how best you should engage henceforth.  1st Scenario. Sometimes last year, there was this client that spoke to us. They wanted to introduce some new products into the market, and required us to ...
