I build the stock, sales and reporting systems that small businesses actually use: the warehouse, the shops, the daily figures, and a dashboard the owner can open from home. I also do audit-side analytics and research work, because that is my own trade.
Four things, all of them things I have done with my own hands — not a catalogue of services.
A complete system for a distributor or retailer: goods in, goods out to your shops, each shop's daily sales, and the difference between the shop's book and yours — valued in naira.
Revenue returns, bank-versus-ledger reconciliations, and fraud tests on large transaction data — the work of an auditor who can also write the queries.
Postgraduate proposals, literature reviews and data analysis, written in clear English with the evidence cited.
A clean, fast website you can edit yourself — your products, prices, pictures and contact, working well on a phone.
Simple, and the same three steps every time.
The same problem wears different clothes in different businesses. If you recognise your own business below, we should talk.
Drinks leave the store, food leaves the kitchen, cash comes in at the front desk, and the owner is often in another town.
Fees come in instalments, from different relations, and somebody carries the exercise book home every night.
Goods go out to shops and marketers, credit customers pay late, and the shop's book never quite agrees with the warehouse.
A shop that sells hundreds of small items a day cannot be checked from a total at night.
A building-materials company: a warehouse, two market shops, walk-in customers at the warehouse, and an owner who lives abroad. No client name and no figure that could identify him.
Anyone can show you a screen. These four things are what make the figures on it worth believing.
A build is usually between N250,000 and N500,000 depending on how many locations and activities are involved, plus an annual hosting and support fee. You get the figure in writing before any work begins, and half is paid on agreement, half on handover.
No. The system runs on a server I manage, with HTTPS, a firewall and a nightly backup. You pay the annual hosting and support fee. The domain name is registered in your name, so the address belongs to your business and not to me.
Two to four weeks for most businesses. The part that takes the time is not the building — it is agreeing your rules, your prices and taking a physical count. Once those are settled, you see it working within days.
Yes. We take a physical count on one agreed day and load that as your opening position. What happened before stays as it was — we start from today and go forward, which is easier than rebuilding years of history.
On a dedicated server with the database reachable only by the application, never from the internet. Every person gets their own login: some can enter records, others can only look. Nothing is ever deleted, so there is always a record of who did what.
Figures below are what I normally quote for a small business. Every engagement is quoted in writing before any work begins.
| Work | Typical range | What is included |
|---|---|---|
| Stock & sales system | ₦250,000 – ₦500,000 | Built around your items and reports, installed, tested with your own data, staff trained |
| Opening stock setup | ₦30,000 – ₦60,000 | Count sheets prepared, the physical count loaded, and your book compared with the system |
| Hosting, backups & support | ₦120,000 – ₦250,000 per year | Private server, HTTPS, nightly backups, support when something goes wrong |
| Audit analytics engagement | Quoted per dataset | Reconciliation, exception tests and a written report of findings |
| Research proposal or report | Quoted per piece | Proposal, literature review, analysis, or a full report |
| Business website | ₦150,000 – ₦300,000 | Design, build, your domain, and a walkthrough so you can edit it yourself |
Payments: half on agreement, half when the work is handed over. Hosting is paid yearly in advance, because the server is paid for yearly.
Tell me what the business does and where the figures disagree — that is usually enough for me to tell you whether a system is worth it. Free first look: send me a photo of one of your records — a stock page, a sales book, a debtors list — and I will tell you what I would change, and whether it needs software at all.
