Oyinloye  shared her success story, she also highlighted the price of sacrifice as an unavoidable crucible that the success seeker must go through, “

“My inspiration started with an Instagram blogger who created a page Ursula blog where she advertised businesses and young entrepreneurs kept asking several questions which some of it, till date  still crop up. You see a question on the message box regarding capital and where they can actually source things at cheaper a rate to sell from Idumota.

Prof Owolabi added that the book  is a new platform that exposed the latest details on online marketing space. The Hustlers Guide offers sellers and consumers a platform where they can meet  to transact business.

“Her goal is to run a robust e-commerce business platform that would serve as a one-stop digital hub for everything human needs. Most times, you find people who have something to sell very urgently but don’t know how to go about it or where to locate the would-be buyer. The plan is to bring sellers and buyers together; basically helping people meet at the point of their need.
