    In Nigeria, African furnishings are paramount. The light is too bright and the colors contain some specific desaturated tones. A trendy design for Westerners would be a disaster for people who want to feel at home in their living space.
    African furniture should be primarily based on natural materials such as mahogany, palm wood or cedar because they give warmth and good incomes. Choosing wood can also be less expensive than buying second-hand clothes because many of these items can deteriorate quickly or even rot due to the humid climate and temperatures in Africa. Home decorating shops (usually wholesalers) offer wooden items that meet international standards but allow you to avoid excessive costs of importing them from abroad.

    When you register for a business, the registration process varies from country to country. In Nigeria, the process is as follows:

    -Nigeria has a federal system of government with 34 states of which 24 are inhabited and 10 are less developed (hill & desert)
    -Registration in a state requires filling out an application form and paying only N1,000. Registration at the Federal Level means that in order to get your documents authenticated by chambers of commerce all across Nigeria, there will be an additional payment of N5000 at National Chamber where this authentication is done.
    -Incorporation among other things entails minimum capitalization requirement that varies from state to state.

Some successful designers are using blog sites as their portal to market themselves, others use social media networks such as Facebook or Twitter, word of mouth or group collaborations like workshops for seniors join in designing short magazines which they distribute for free at grocery stores and food markets.

    In a nutshell, if you're looking for quick advice on getting your interior design career off the ground, you should always be working on giving people the impression that you're busier and better than all of your competitors.

    This could mean hiring more employees or taking on more projects at once to fill up any free time. You want to avoid being perceived as available and slow-moving-you may not have an office; but that doesn't mean you're not busy! Frequently post about big projects like renovations or new additions to current projects. Look better, get more followers.

    Economics is an important factor to consider before starting a business, and many issues need addressing before taking the leap. One issue that has come up often in Nigeria (and other developing countries) are land rights. The commercial property landscape can be blurry and unclear, which can make securing the correct property difficult.
    Drop shipping opportunities also abound around certain products that may not necessarily require specific or expensive stock storage such as clothes or computer accessories for example. However, these types of options still have finance implications to think about when considering logistics and staff management for drop shipping from overseas suppliers among others.
