#how to build corporate credit fast

[probablyasocialecologist]

The core defining feature of capitalism is that it is fundamentally anti-democratic.  Yes, many of us live in democratic political systems, where we get to elect candidates from time to time.  But when it comes to the economic system, the system of production, not even the shallowest illusion of democracy is allowed to enter. Production is controlled by capital: large corporations, commercial banks, and the 1% who own the majority of investible assets… they are the ones who determine what to produce and how to use our collective labour and our planet’s resources.   And for capital, the purpose of production is not to meet human needs or achieve social objectives.  Rather, it is to maximize and accumulate profit.  That is the overriding objective. So we get massive investment in producing things like fossil fuels, SUVs, fast fashion, industrial beef, cruise ships and weapons, because these things are highly profitable to capital. But we get chronic underinvestment in necessary things like renewable energy, public transit and regenerative agriculture, because these are much less profitable to capital or not profitable at all.  This is a critically important point to grasp. In many cases renewables are cheaper than fossil fuels!  But they have much lower profit margins, because they are less conducive to monopoly power. So investment keeps flowing to fossil fuels, even while the world burns.  Relying on capital to deliver an energy transition is a dangerously bad strategy.  The only way to deal with this crisis is with public planning.  On the one hand, we need massive public investment in renewable energy, public transit and other decarbonization strategies. And this should not just be about derisking private capital – it should be about public production of public goods.  To do this, simply issue the national currency to mobilize the productive forces for the necessary objectives, on the basis of need not on the basis of profit.   Now, massive public investment like this could drive inflation if it bumps up against the limits of the national productive capacity. To avoid this problem you need to reduce private demands on the productive forces.  First, cut the purchasing power of the rich; and second, introduce credit regulations on commercial banks to limit their investments in ecologically destructive sectors that we want to get rid of anyway: fossil fuels, SUVs, fast fashion, etc.  What this does is it shifts labour and resources away from servicing the interests of capital accumulation and toward achieving socially and ecologically necessary objectives. This is a socialist ecological strategy, and it is the only thing that will save us. Solving the ecological crisis requires achieving democratic control over the means of production.  We need to be clear about this fact and begin building now the political movements that are necessary to achieve such a transformation.

Brainwolves are prowling this morning because of this whole work situation. I'm trying not to borrow trouble from tomorrow, trying not to feel defeated before the work week even starts. But all I can think is that this whole thing came about because of how long I have been in survival mode at work. Due to how long I have been working there there are certain expectations of me. Understandable but. It has led to management brushing my concerns and literal cries for help aside.

For the last few years my overhead pages and calls for assistance in getting the second register open when I was overrun by customer traffic were ignored. My former ASM told me that I needed to "be faster" when I went to him about it. My former supervisor told me to just keep paging the code for register assistance when I needed it until someone came. I did. No one came. I got yelled at instead.

2020 was hell. I lost count of how many days I cried at my desk. One day I was nearly sent to the hospital because I had a panic attack after four hours of solid customer lines that stretched to the back of the building and no help. Another day I got pulled into the manager office by another supervisor who asked me what was wrong because I wasn't myself, and I just fell apart into a sobbing mess. I had been running the contractor sales desk solo at that point for two weeks because one of the specialists quit, the other was out with COVID after vacation, and the supervisor of that department was on quarantine. I had to do four peoples' jobs on top of my own because management refused to find specialists to cover the desk. Second supervisor told me to speak to the store manager and my supervisor and tell them how bad it was, or she would. I did. The first words out of their mouths were how we didn't have the people. I just shut up and backed down and resigned myself to continuing as I had been.

Two days later a customer called corporate and filed a complaint against the ASM over that department because he made me cry in front of said customer. He didn't mean to, but he did. I was doing my best and was still being asked for more and I couldn't hold back my tears after he left. The customer was angry; he's one of the ones that considers me 'their' cashier, the one they always go to, and didn't like that I was crying.

Eventually, I stopped reaching out for help. Why bother? It never came. I fell into poor practices (ie: stopped pushing credit cards) because I got into the mindset of "I need to keep this line moving". Back then it wasn't the "Friendliness" score I was getting dinged on. It was the "Speed" score. I was forced to adapt to the environment I was in. But I was still at the top of the performance list.

Fast forward four years and I'm near the bottom. I'm so worn down, so defeated. I am trying to claw my way out of the hole and get back to where I was before. I know that I can do it. I have to do it, because I can't afford to be jobless, definitely not right now. And I know that I should bring this all up with management. Given the track record of how pleading for help in the past has gone, I don't believe that it would do much good.

I like my job. I like the people I work with, for the most part. I like my customers. I just wish I knew how to regain my confidence.

(And most of my coworkers are pretty great people to work with. Even the ones that I complained about above are usually fine. They have all had my back in some pretty intense and/or scary situations. I know that I can count on them for things like that. It's just... the day to day support from management could be better...)

Melodic Misconceptions 🎹

Track 23: Filler reporting for duty! Ew the new managers are here 🤢

Synopsis: Victoria Shard was a former member of the popular idol group [ Poisoner ] from NRC corporations. After discourse with her group leader, Victoria decided it was best for her to leave and pursue her solo career in a record label run by her parents.

It had been half a year since her separation from her old group, and Victoria had never been more successful. But now she has a new problem. She must return to NRC corporations in order to mentor the seven idol groups.

Ellis Clawthorne is a member of [ (Co)-connect ] the most recent group under NRC'S belt. With no experience as an idol, Ellis must persevere in order to succeed and pursue her dreams.

Will both girls be able to adapt to their current situations?

✐ ✎_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_✐ ✎

Author's note: Behold, the track has finally arrived 🧍🏻‍♀️

Writer's block decided to knock on my doorstep, so I was struggling to write this track because I didn't know where it was gonna go TvT that's why there's still no social media segments yet

There will probably be social media segments in track 24 tho, so there's that

Hope you guys enjoy this track ^^|| even if it probably won't be as good as the other ones

Another note: Please Reblog ^^ No seriously, I mean it

──ㅇ─────↻ ◁ II ▷ ↺───ㅇ────

Victoria resisted the urge to smile at the group she was currently watching.

She wasn't able to believe it at first, but now she feels proud to know that [ (Co)-connect ] were incredibly fast learners. Not to mention incredibly patient with her mentoring.

In a way, it made her feel more at ease as their personal mentor.

Their harmonies worked so well that it didn't surprise Victoria that Crowley paired the seven of them to be in an idol group together. No matter the chaos, they would always be able to deliver.

And holy hell, do they deliver.

Noticing the subtle yet near-invisible smile on Victoria's face, Mayuu hummed satisfyingly and smiled as well. Although hers was more visible compared to the woman next to her.

"They all improved greatly…"

"It's all thanks to you, you know."

Victoria scoffed, drinking from her cold water bottle."I wouldn't say that…" she muttered, not looking in Mayuu's direction.

The latter chuckled."Well, I would. And I just did. Besides, it's okay to take credit for the success of others." Mayuu commented, "Just as long as you take the necessary amount of credit."

Victoria nodded lazily and continued looking at the rest of the group, her cheek leaning against her knee.

Nothing seemed much different.

Carol's voice remained mature and calming. Yuuta continued to be endearingly provocative.

Juvia's dancing was less fast-paced and showed more emphasis on how to express her body without smiling too much. Miren appeared focused on his guitar, strumming its strings with a look of amusement in his eyes.

Chizuko appeared contemptuous as if she had something on her mind as she strummed the strings of her bass.

And Ellis danced along the remaining space in the dance studio. As graceful as a ballerina, with her pirouettes and arabesques perfectly executed.

Victoria noticed Mayuu pursed her lips and raised a brow."Is something on your mind?" She asked.

The receiver of her question only chuckled."I guess…. We've done several interviews before you arrived, but…. The group members in particular aren't fully prepared for interviews…" Mayuu admitted.

Silencing herself for a couple of moments, Victoria pondered over what Mayuu told her. And after a couple moments of silence, she looked back at her.

"I think I can help with that."

Circe didn't like this. Not at all.

He and the rest of [ Poisoner ] stood outside of the main corporate building of NRC corporations. Waiting for their new manager.

Who replaced Vil's father.

Without anyone noticing, Circe sent Vil a not-so-subtle scowl. A way to silently scold him for making such a foolish decision.

Vil's changed. Circe knew that. And people can change after several years.

But he didn't like Vil's change. Especially since only a couple of years before this, he found deep admiration for him.

And it's been replaced with unresolvable hatred. And it only increased the longer he had to stand with the rest of the group.

Epel stole a glance at Circe and felt regret. He always felt it ever since Victoria left. And that regret only increased once Jiyoon left the group.

He and Circe knew the group was a shell of its former self. And that Rook and Vil were giving their fans false hope.

When Epel tried to reach his hand out to Circe, in an attempt at trying to comfort him and calm him down, he half anticipated Circe to slap his hand away.

And he did. And he didn't even bother to steal a glance at him.

"Are they coming yet?" Circe put little effort into sounding the least bit bothered by what they're currently doing. Vil narrowed his eyes at him in response.

"Patience, Circe." Vil calmly suggested. Without him noticing, Circe rolled his eyes and only got frustratingly bored as time continued to pass.

Until the limousine entered. Two limousines.

Rook tilted his head, looking rather confused."Eh?"

The first limousine stopped in front of them, but to their surprise, it wasn't Koral.

It was Aguri.

Vil crossed his arms and lifted his head a little. Circe resisted the sudden urge to snort at Vil's attempt at assertiveness toward his friend.

Though, he couldn't help but think Aguri looked a little unusual. Sure, he looked nice with his casual navy blue sweater, but… Why did he look like he was going on a date?

Was what Circe thought as Aguri walked past the four of them.

Vil hummed."Not bothering to say hello?" He spoke. Aguri sighed but didn't waver. He didn't even bother to look at Vil. Like it was a sign that their relationship was deteriorating.

"I don't need to. I'm not here for you."

"I'm your friend, Aguri."

"Not the point. And that isn't my real name."

"And would you prefer me to refer to you as Y/-"

They were cut off by the sound of the second limousine's door opening. Revealing a girl in a bubblegum pink dress with reddish brown hair.

Aguri knew it was Koral, and didn't seem to stiffen until her manager exited the vehicle.

When the manager sent Aguri a smirk and a flirtatious wave, that was when he sprinted into the building.

Circe felt tempted to run after Aguri but decided against it after Vil sent him a knowing look. One that told him not to run after Aguri.

While also essentially telling him, "You can't leave as the girls did."

──ㅇ─────↻ ◁ II ▷ ↺───ㅇ────

"No questions are basically questions that can simply be answered just by saying no."

Mayuu nodded in agreement, pushing up her glasses as the rest of the group sat on the couch and listened to their lecture.

Yuuta was content. He already knew what to say in interviews since he's had the most. Mostly because of the numerous rumors surrounding him, but also because of his general popularity.

Ellis, on the other hand, had no idea what to do during interviews. While the other members mostly knew what to say, Ellis mostly kept herself shy. Almost completely silent.

As optimistic as she was, she couldn't help but feel she was a bother due to her inexperience and decided to keep quiet during most interviews unless she was asked a question.

Suddenly, she felt Juvia poking her forearm and gave her a questioning brow. Juvia sighed softly and pointed at Victoria, who sent Ellis a pleasing smile.

"Ellis? Are you all right?"

Feeling her face go warm in embarrassment, she nodded rapidly at her mentor.

"Y-Yeah! S-So, do you need something?"

"Yes, actually." Mayuu answered for Victoria, slowly approaching Ellis."We're gonna be teaching all of you how to pull the strings during interviews."

The words Mayuu said not only confused Ellis but also the rest of the group.

Except for Yuuta of course.

"Pull the strings?...." Juvia murmured, tilting her head off to the side, feeling rather bewildered by Mayuu's words.

And out of nowhere, Yuuta rested his head on Miren's shoulder, and let out a low chuckle.

"Oh, Juvia….." Yuuta trailed his sentence as he sent Miren a knowing look.

".... She means we're gonna learn how to manipulate the audience and the interviewer."

Yuuta's words alone were enough for Victoria's smile to transition into a cynical smirk.

(My Time With) Citizen Sleeper

So I recently got Xbox Game Pass For PC, I still don't know how I feel about the increasing amounts of subscription-services, but that's a conversation for another post.

Point is, I have access to a bunch more games now and one of those is

Citizen Sleeper.

I choose my body. I go with the 'extractor' class, they look strong. I enjoy playing the strong, quiet types. Slow to warm, but once warmed fast to love. Fiercely, quietly loyal. I am a Sleeper, a robotic frame housing the emulation of a human mind that willingly signed up for transference. I am owned by a corporation.

I am escaping, wedged tight in the spaces of a freight ship that no being should occupy.

The first person I meet is a kind old man who works the scrapyard. Heavily augmented and handy with all manner of tools. The first description I'm given of myself, once free of the freight ship, is being huddled under a mylar blanket. I choose to be quiet when I first meet people, let them talk before I decide if I like them. I find most people likeable.

I work the yard to help the old man pay off his debt and he promptly kicks me out in a way that suggests he's doing me a favour. I'm told that I have tracking devices all over my body - that eventually the corporation that owns me will be coming to collect. A pushy individual named Feng claims they can help with that, but they also insist on having me do all their chores first.

I don't like Feng. They presume so immediately that I find important what they find important, the presume I will be helping them, they dangle the idea of freeing me from my tracking to keep me playing along. Their plans are poorly explained and obtuse, it takes me a long time to follow any of them.

I meet Lem and Mina at the dockyards. Lem is a single-dad, Mina is an only child. She's adopted, sort-of. A rescue, more accurately. Lem is a good guy, he's working (like me) on the massive colony ship being constructed on Erlin's Eye - that's where I am, by the way, the Eye. A lawless space-station where a person can easily vanish (like Feng, after getting me into trouble with corporate security). Lem tells me that if you work hard enough you'll be put onto a contracted team, and if you get put onto a contracted team you will have a chance to win a ticket on-board the ship. Someone has to maintain it while the wealthy are in cryo-sleep, and while he might not out-live the decades-long journey, his daughter would. A new life off-world far away from the reach of the core worlds and their hyper-capitalism.

I get on the contracted team, and then I help Lem get on by babysitting his daughter between my own shifts. Once the ship is complete, we'll find out if we made the cut.

It takes a while to build the ship. Long enough for a bounty hunter to catch up with me. Feng never did come back to get the tracking devices out of my systems, they left a clue as to where they went but I've no idea where it leads. Not following it leads to Ethan, the bounty hunter, and a gun to my head. He decides not to retire me then and there, but to instead enjoy the luxuries that the Eye has to offer - drinking - with me paying his tab.

Ethan objectifies me. He reminds me that I am corporate property, a machine taking itself for a joyride. He hates me, but he likes drinking more. There is a scene where he mocks me in front of the whole bar and only one person tells him to shut up. I think if I make friends with the people on the Eye that when push comes to shove, I'll be protected.

I make friends with a man named Emphis. He cooks some great mushroom dishes and trades them for a story or for credits. I tell him of memories I'm not meant to have. I tell him about my dreams. He tells me where I can grow some 'shrooms. The greenways.

That is where I meet Eshe and Peake. There is a flotilla beyond a cordoned off zone that are trying to get onto the Eye. Refugees from something. Eshe is angry all the time, pushy about what needs to be done, insistent that she and Peake must break through the blockade to send the refugees supplies. Peake wants to help and I'm convinced, but their plan is complicated. They need to steal water, and food, and procure scrap metal, and then work out a way to distract the blockade, to bypass the security. There is a limited time window and I am expected to help at all parts of the plan, but my body is failing.

I need credits to purchase a stabilizer for my systems. I need credits to pay off Ethan's bar tab. Last time he saw me he made a dent in my face. Nobody liked that, he works at the bar now and has been cut off, but there is someone worse coming. Someone - he says - who is a professional. Maybe if I help him pay off his bar debt he will protect me.

A woman named Helene tells me that Eshe's plan won't work. That it will be fuel for the council to come down even harder on the refugees, refusing them basic aid. She wants me to convince Eshe and Peake to back off, and I agree. Not because I disagree with what Eshe wants, but because the plan won't work. I am one robot, trying to feed myself, repair myself, provide for the cause, pay off a debt, track down a man who promised me freedom.

I try to talk Peake and Eshe down, I am kicked out of their compound. Eshe goes through with the plan and she is captured. I try to tell Peake that I am sorry.

The professional arrives. Ethan dies. Then the new guy does too. This is the first time my character has ever killed anybody. That night I dream about his corpse and when I wake up I realize that I might just be free. The corporation that owns my body has cancelled all their contracts, something is happening back at the core worlds, and the Eye is no longer important. Or at least, I am no longer important.

I have time now. I work a steady shift, I pay for my stabilizers, I grow mushrooms for Emphis to make new dishes. I'm pressured to join a gang - I don't. I find a vending machine that needs my help. An advanced AI trapped in obsolete hardware. I've been seeing things - the network that holds all the systems together. I have the innate ability to interface and desencrypt. I am stalked by a Hunter, the same Hunter that forced my Vending Machine Friend into hiding.

I promise to help.

And then the colony ship is complete. I wait with Lem and Mina in the crowd to see if we've made it on-board and we find out that no one did. No one was ever going to. Lem is crushed, I'm more optimistic, I promise to find a way on-board.

Then something else happens. A great invisible wave hits the Eye and for a brief moment security protocols are dropped in the most derelict parts - the parts closest to the flotilla and the cordon. The corporation backs off, Eshe is released.

Eshe and Peake forgive me in their own way. They forgive me because they know the plan was foolish, but Eshe is a true believer and I've been made cynical and self-preserving. Peake wants to study the Flux (that's what everyone is calling the wave). Eshe wants to continue helping the flotilla. It's less illegal now, but it is spreading me thin. They presume I will help them and I think that is why they forgave me for backing out of the earlier plan: I am useful.

My time is spent helping the Vending Machine. Studying the Colony Ship for security flaws. Listening to Peake talk at me about the Flux and what it could mean.

I've met also a mercenary, it was a complicated relationship that also ended in death. I've seen three bodies while aboard the Eye. Four if I count a Sleeper like myself. The mercenary was sorry for how things turned out, I think maybe if I made different choices it would not have gone so badly.

I do well for myself. I earn enough credits to sustain my body at peak performance. Emphis tells me his story and I thank him for it and the dish he prepared. I locate Feng, working in a tea shop, and he asks even more favours of me. I think he's forgotten he ever promised to remove my corporate tracking. I build a new housing for the Vending Machine friend and they are free of the obsolete machinery.

Together we isolate the Hunter protocol.

Then a man approaches me about the colony ship. If I help him he can get tickets for myself, and Lem, and Mina. The catch is that I am to be his beacon, he doesn't like the secrecy of the corporation that controls the ship. Information should be free. I'm given little choice, I want to help Lem, and I want to perform tasks when they are given.

I do as he asks, and he delivers on his promise. In 12 or so cycles the ship departs.

It's strange to be killing time in a space where just a few cycles ago I was struggling to keep my head above the water. I have a new name for the Vending Machine, Navigator. An AI protocol that escaped its pre-programmed bounds. I decide to use the time remaining until departure to help her escape the Hunter and Killer protocols.

I succeed with just one cycle left and then it is time to depart.

I think in the back of my mind that this might not be it, so many times the rug has been pulled from under me. Feng went into hiding, Sabine - someone I have not yet mentioned - similarly vanishing after promising to help. Eshe and Peake's doomed plans. Ethan and his gun.

I'm given the option to wait at the gates or give my boarding pass and I thought I'd hesitate more than I do. I board the ship.

There's a lot I had unfinished, probably. I never do find out what happens with the Flux. I never get the tracking software out of my systems. Feng waits for me in his teashop to provide intel he's never going to get. Navigator is free to explore the Eye as she pleases. The refugees continue their struggle.

I think the Eye is a place where all this happens and you slip into it and then slip out of it again, and I think I am lucky to slip out into a life with a man I can call a friend and a little girl I'll eventually call a daughter.

For decades we work a ship full of cryo-sleepers. Lem passes before me, Mina tells me the news. Then years later I start to fade too. Mina shuts me down for the last time, promising that I will wake up again.

This is a really special game. I wasn't expecting the ending to gut punch me the way that it did. I'm not motivated to replay it because the more I think of my story the less I want to change it. There is so much I didn't learn, so much I neglected. But for me and the character I embodied? I found what was important. In that space between departure and arrival, those decades, I was free.

Accounting and Tax Solutions: A Comprehensive Guide for Businesses

Having the appropriate accounting and tax solutions in today's fast-paced commercial world significantly impacts any firm's financial stability. Whether you run a huge corporation, operate a small business, or are an entrepreneur, managing your money and tax responsibilities well assures Compliance, lowers risks, and sets you up for success.

This article examines the several tax and accounting options available to companies, their significance, the advantages of outsourcing, and how technology is transforming the industry.

What Are Accounting and Tax Solutions?

Accounting and tax solutions are the instruments, services, and approaches that assist companies in handling their money, keeping correct records, and adhering to tax laws. Among these remedies are:

Bookkeeping: Recording daily financial transactions, including sales, purchases, payments, and receipts, is known as bookkeeping.

Payroll Management: Payroll management includes completing payroll tax returns, withholding taxes, and ensuring workers are paid on schedule and appropriately.

Tax Compliance: Complying with all applicable federal, state, and local tax filing requirements, such as sales tax, payroll tax, and corporate income tax.

Financial Reporting: Creating cash flow, profit and loss, and balance sheets, among other financial statements.

Tax Planning: Tax planning creates plans to reduce tax obligations while adhering to legal requirements.

Depending on the company's size and complexity, an internal accounting staff may offer accounting and tax solutions or contract them out to outside providers.

Importance of Accounting and Tax Solutions

Businesses must maintain proper accounting and tax management to Ensure Compliance:

Ensure Compliance: Accounting standards and tax rules can be complicated and subject to rapid change. Staying current with these developments is essential to preventing fines or audits.

Keep an Eye on Your Financial Health: Precise accounting enables companies to monitor their earnings, control their cash flow, and evaluate their financial situation.

Support Business Decisions: Financial reports offer insightful information about an organization's performance and can inform strategic choices about investment, cost-cutting, and expansion.

Reduce Tax Liability: Good tax planning helps corporations pay as little tax as possible using credits, deductions, and other tactics.

Boost Investor Confidence: Accurate financial reporting simplifies obtaining funding or investments and building confidence with lenders, investors, and other stakeholders.

Types of Accounting and Tax Solutions

1. In-House Accounting

Many businesses decide to manage their accounting in-house, particularly if they have intricate requirements or need constant financial supervision. Having an internal accounting department or team facilitates quick access to financial data and offers solutions that are specifically customized to meet the business's demands. Nevertheless, employment, benefits, and training costs can make in-house accounting expensive, necessitating keeping up with tax laws and regulations.

2. Contractual Accounting Services

Outsourcing accounting and tax services can be a good choice for companies looking to cut expenses and simplify processes. Numerous businesses provide all-inclusive packages that cover tax compliance, bookkeeping, payroll, and financial reporting. By outsourcing, companies may concentrate on their core skills and leave financial administration to the professionals.

Small and medium-sized firms can acquire professional expertise through outsourced accounting services without incurring the costs of hiring an internal team.

Flutterwave CEO:Olugbenga Agboola says the key to Flutterwave’s success is simple

Innovation isn’t just a buzzword for African fintech entrepreneur Olugbenga “GB” Agboola.

It’s the central component of his philosophy and his company’s guiding principle. 

Olugbenga Agboola is the founder of Flutterwave, a leading payments technology company in Africa valued at over $3bn. And, like all successful tech entrepreneurs, he sees the world differently. 

“The way we look at innovation at Flutterwave is that thing that solves people’s issues and people’s challenges in the best and in the simplest of ways,” he says.

“We are basically going to give you the solutions you need in a way that’s simple to you.”

Flutterwave was a giant leap forward for African finance. Although it began as a way for enterprise companies to move money quickly and easily across national boundaries, it has expanded to become the backbone of the continent’s e-payment services. 

Olugbenga Agboola: ‘We Create and Innovate’

Keeping with Olugbenga Agboola’s values, each new innovation at Flutterwave began as a chance to solve a problem or to make a service faster, better, cheaper, or safer. COVID-19, he says, is an interesting example.

The challenge to innovate, he says, “went two ways. Companies that were, for example, in the payment space, that depended so much on physical exchanges, really had challenges. If your business was dependent on physical foot traffic, for example, you had issues. If you didn’t pay fast enough, you were going to have challenges. But if you had a business with so much e-commerce potential, you could thrive during and just after the COVID-19 lockdown. It wasn’t an easy period for any organization. But what kept us going was one part of our core values, which is we create and innovate.”

Watching clients face multiple obstacles, the Flutterwave team began brainstorming ways to help. 

“We went ahead to create a solution for those who were most affected. We launched this campaign, ‘Keeping the Lights On,’ and that refers to our mindset in tackling that whole new situation that faced us. We used that principle across all our business categories, from small businesses to middle-scale and large businesses. For small businesses, we created solutions for them to get online and sell.”

That led to the birth of Flutterwave’s digital store, which launched at the height of the pandemic. 

All About Flutterwave’s Digital Store

The online shop allowed African merchants to display and sell their goods online for free. Using simple tools, shop owners and business managers who had never had a digital presence before could create a fully functional online shop in minutes. Even local artists could start a store, allowing them access to patrons across the world. 

The project quickly attracted more than 20,000 small and medium-sized businesses and was credited with helping many survive the economic downturn that came on the back of the lockdown. 

But that’s not the only innovation Flutterwave had in its pocket. 

Olugbenga Agboola wanted to ensure that Flutterwave didn’t abandon its earliest clients. But instead of creating a generalized one-size-fits-all tool, the company partnered with bigger corporations to identify problems and create customized solutions. 

“For middle-scale businesses, we had account managers and relationship managers asking them, ‘What can we do for you to develop in this way, to go in this direction that could make you more money, could solve more problems for your customers?’ And that was the same case for enterprise merchants,” he says.

“We built or offered to build work products that are going to be useful to these businesses.”

The pandemic proved to be a test of how much innovation Flutterwave and Olugbenga Agboola still had in them. As it turned out, the philosophy of solving problems served the firm well.

“And at the end of the day, post-COVID was some of our best financial years,” he says.

“It was some of our best years in respect to transaction value and transaction volume. And after COVID, everything was normalized. So the gains from e-commerce are there, the gains from the other folks who rely on physical cash transactions have started and restarted and the market has a bit normalized.”

None of this would be possible without a high-level commitment to innovation. The pandemic brought unprecedented challenges that required new and forward-looking solutions, Olugbenga Agboola says. And fortunately, the Flutterwave team was prepared to innovate. 

“I would say we combined two of our core values to make it happen, which is we are customer-focused and then we innovate,” he says. “We brought these things together, and we decided to make magic for people.”
