Meet Kelechi Anyadiegwu Who Turned $500 Into $2Million.Let us introduce you to the 26-year old Nigerian girl who turned $500 into $2 million online in Sales
When Kelechi Anyadiegwu started her online African clothing store named Zuvaa with $500 two years ago, her idea was to share African-inspired designs with consumers around the world.
She had no idea to launch it online nor had an idea that it would turn into million dollar business. Zuvaa is estimated to make $2 million in sales in 2016.
After receiving a compliment on her outfit, the tech savvy young lady bought a domain name and started social media accounts.
"I didn't really know what I was getting into, I just had a vision and I was excited about where that would take me," Anyadiegwu told CNN in an interview.
"As a women of Nigerian descent, I grew up with African prints and fabrics. I loved wearing African inspired designs, and whenever I did wear these pieces, people wanted to know how they could also shop African inspired prints."
Instead of just referring these curious customers on to the designers she knew, Anyadiegwu saw a business opportunity to showcase some of the talented African-inspired designers she knew.
"I decided to use my skills in social media marketing and online community building, to create a platform that would provide more exposure for the talented African-inspired fashion designers I knew existed around the world," she said.
What started with a compliment has therefore turned the young Nigerian woman's idea into a million dollar business.Her success has already landed her on the Forbes 30 under 30 list.

Do not wait till you have that big amount of money, start little and the sky won't even be the limit!
