About this course

Nigerians spend heavily every month fighting darkness, and inverter systems are how more and more homes, shops and offices are solving it. This course teaches the business side: understanding the product well enough to sell it honestly, sizing a system from a customer's appliance list, sourcing from markets and distributors, pricing with a real margin, and turning after-sales service into a referral machine. No electrical background needed — you will learn exactly enough technical knowledge to never oversell.

"Up NEPA!" is the one shout every Nigerian child learns before they learn the national anthem. But behind that joke is a serious economic fact: the national grid gives many areas only a few hours of power a day, and in some places it can disappear for weeks. That pain is exactly what you will be selling the solution to.
