Every May 1st, we celebrate Workers Day but let’s be honest; working without the right tools is like fighting a lion with a teaspoon. Whether you’re a remote worker, tailor, tech bro, hairstylist, or the go-to generator magician in your area, one thing is clear, you need tools that make the hustle easier.

So, instead of just vibes and motivation, we’re giving you the real essentials, so your efforts don’t end in sweat and sorrow.

Let’s get into the 6 tools every Nigerian worker should have in their hustle starter pack.

A Toothbrush

If you’re in a customer-facing role, or your business or job requires you to interact with people, you don’t want your customers or clients using all their energy to hold their breath instead of listening to what you have to say. 

Every night before you go to bed make sure your toothbrush and toothpaste are ready to save the day. And if you happen to rush out of the house without brushing, buy some mint chewing gum and chew the smell away.

A Nice Work Outfit 

Every Worker Should Have A Nice Work Outfit

No matter your walk of life, unless you work remotely (even though!) you have to package yourself well. A good outfit speaks well for you. 

Whether you’re a crafts person or a repair person who’s worried about getting dirty at the end of the day, a good coverall shows you’re someone who means business. When you dress nonchalantly and wear what will almost make your customer run for their life, that doesn’t speak well about you or the service you offer.

You work remotely, and you hop on that important office video call with a singlet or crop top, your village people might be after you.

A Phone or Laptop 

Every Worker Should Have A Phone

A remote work wouldn’t be possible if you don’t have any of these, so that’s a necessity for you remote workers. But as a business person or someone who provides a service, you need one of the above.

Gone are the days of town criers. If someone wants to patronize or refer you, they need to be able to reach you.

Be it a feature phone (aka torchlight phone or palasa) or a smartphone, anyone you can afford, always make sure to have a phone on you. Without a phone in this day and age, you might as well be living under a rock. 

A Savings Account or App

Don’t just keep working and have nothing to show for it. Save, Save! Save as much as you can, so that your hard-earned money can save you one day. 

You can start saving with your traditional bank if you don’t trust online savings apps and platforms. I know you’ve probably heard the popular “If anything happens to my money who will I hold accountable” but online saving apps like Cowrywise and Piggyvest are secure and insured, Nothing will happen to your money. 

An Investment Portfolio 

Saving is good, but have you heard of investment? The Oga kpatakpata of them all. After working hard for your money and saving it in the bank, the bank takes your money and uses it to invest, something you should be doing yourself. And guess what? They won’t give you an interest for using your money.

Well, now that you know, investment is a tool that can make your money work for you. With apps like Bamboo and the easy-to-use investment features on Fusion, you can save your money and invest it at the same time. And the best part is with these apps you can invest in the US market and earn interest in dollars. Sweet, right?

A Community 

Every Worker Should Have A Community

For a worker, nothing beats community as a tool. If you work as a business owner, an employee, or a person who provides a service through skills, your community is an always-ready customer point. 

Imagine this! You have or join a group of people (a community) who understand what you do and can relate to the service you offer. There’s no too much talk here before they understand what you’re telling them about. 

Whatever you need, or want, you can be sure your community understands. Want to sell something? They already relate so it won’t be hard. Want to buy something, they already understand what you’re up to so getting a recommendation will be easy.

Need a plug or some guidance about a specific challenge at work? They’ve got you because someone there has already experienced what you’re facing. No stress. Just you and your community against the world.
