I am a South African African and am thankful that you have opened my eyes to what has been elusive in the area of marketing and selling one's product. Your presentation has reignited what has been the norm but somehow ignored or forgotten and one wondered why products don't fly off the shelf. All those aspects of your talk do resonate with most cultures in South Africa and it usually to takes an acknowledgement of one to get products to develop wings ! Usually, greetings in a local language or dialect or pronouncing a proverb or clan name would win a sale. I am now getting better prices with products I buy from Ethiopians because I ask for them in their language and have done so with the Chinese! As for the Igbo man ,odumma and oga always opens and closes deals!
I’m the child of Ghanaians - Hausa and Yoruba by tribe - living in the US, Atlanta to be particular and I have to say - the way this talk connected with my brain, aligned with my sense of self and validated my experience is astonishing. Truly I am still a child of Africa, navigating with an American accent 😂. Blending the identity has created some hybrid tendencies in me, but generally this video fits like my own shoe or better. Thank you for sharing this Masterclass of information. I pray this reaches more people and influences more lives, thank you teacher. May God continue to bless you and expand your way.
I wanted to skip the video as I saw that it is 1 hour long, but I am locked in at 42 minutes and I am shocked to have watched it this far. This is one video I enjoy
As a psychologist, this offers a great insight into the minds and mores of our people but also reveals, I think, why the business elites cannot transform Africa. If customer is king and we submit to their "problems" to maximise as much "gain" as possible and not concern ourselves with actively trying to "change" them, then Africa will have no coherent future because these values/cultures that the presenter romanticises are at the roots of our crises and they need to be TRANSFORMED not "married" or even reformed. I understand that may not be the job of a marketer. But I believe that African entrepreneurs should not ONLY pander to the mores and whims of African temperaments and cultures, but CONSCIOUSLY CREATE/INNOVATE products to TRANSFORM them. If we don't, our descendants will live in a more sorry world. Of course people want what they want, I get that. But our current lifestyles (all across the world and within and between each local group or tribe in Nigeria for instance) is not sustainable. We must transform.
@@CynthiaOrorho-uv4ck This consciousness of greed, materialistic excesses, selfishness with a twinkle of charities and donations here and there is not sustainable. And the population is exploding, and the gaps keep widening. It is unthinkable what a so-called country like Nigeria will look like 20-50 years from now.
Wow... Back to back more than 1 hour of Most Brilliant Thoughts. It has literally changed my perspective. Blessed with lot good teachings and friends while working in Nigeria.
I love his manner of presentation. A well read man but he maintains originality of speech. He didn't try to impress the audience with fancy words and intonation. I searched and followed him on twitter just a few minutes into the video.
Daddy, you are hitting every point about Africa literally is my first time getting onto your page. You just got you a permanent follower I realize going to Africa a few years back was dead. They have more knowledge on business than all the years of being in school abroad, and I learned in the village in Nigeria that I don’t, it was literally going to feed People what I have ever learned in America when we stopped at a village market to get some food stuffs to go and give them out to the motherless children in the next town I started talking to one of the other ladies in the market she had more knowledge on business then the teacher abroad I’m just saying my mouth was open
The only disagreement I have is the part that igbos don't like others to learn they language..I have alot of yorubas in Igbo land who are speaking igbos and some are married to igbos....VERY POWERFUL MASTER CLASS
This mind blowing session for real African entrepreneur, ready to build African cultural brand. I believe our brand Soft Naija has a touch of African in it. 💚 Thank You Mr Feyi Olubodun 👏👏👏🎉👏 God bless you Tech Point Africa ❤❤❤ Eaglesadekunle Trillionaires in dollars 🦅
I love this, absolutely awesome. It explains a lot about fear, racism in the West & so much more.....Oh my sweet mama Africa.....Sweeet, Sweet genius intelligent Africa.....Yes indeed 🇯🇲
I don't believe Igbos don't want you to learn their language. I guess the language is more difficult to learn than Hausa. I have met a number of Igbo persons that their first instinct every time you meet them is to speak Igbo to you unless you tell them you don't understand what they are saying. Also Igbos are the only people who can speak every other language apart from their own. So I want to believe less people speak Igbo because of the complexity level.
"Understanding the African Market as a Startup Founder" would be a better title. Great insight!
I love the way he communicates, you can’t help but understand 👏

I LOVE what you say... "Marry the problem of your customer, and date your product".
😂😂😂... Very funny but interesting
He actually said date your ideas not product per say... It may not be possible to date when it is now a product.
This was exactly what I needed to hear, at just the right time. Thank you. I thank the lord for this wisdom.

How do you mean that the current lifestyle in the world and in the local space is not sustainable???

Please what's the name of the speaker
Feyi Olubodun
Thank you...
I don't believe Igbos don't want you to learn their language. I guess the language is more difficult to learn than Hausa. I have met a number of Igbo persons that their first instinct every time you meet them is to speak Igbo to you unless you tell them you don't understand what they are saying. Also Igbos are the only people who can speak every other language apart from their own. So I want to believe less people speak Igbo because of the complexity level.
They don’t care about your product ..but they care when your product doesn’t function as expected..they dump it and move to your competitors
Can one get the material he's using for this his slide?
❤❤❤❤❤
This is such profound way of contributing to national youth development. Very insightful. Can we get the link to access the slides ?
