it is good to have good money for some businesses here in Nigeria now. it is becoming very difficult now to start a business as a lot of things have gone up now
This is for simple reason the inflation of neira compared to the price of dollar so the price of dollar is increasing each year and price of building products increases each year so it is wise get bank loan for starting a business rather than collect funds and be surprised by new price of metal of next year while if you get bank loan and purchase them last year then you will be winner.

That depends on the scale of your call center. I think setting up a call center requires a considerable amount of capital. You need to buy all the necessary equipment including a phone system, computers and hire employees to run the center.

I don't think it is necessary to have a computer for a call center because I think you only need your phone

Sincerely speaking, I did not know that such businesses still exist. I thought mobile phones have gotten to the reach of everybody that people don't patronize call centres any longer.

And this is why I am just guessing that is a business will not cost you a lot of money because you only need your cell phone

Who would patronize that kind of business when everyone can afford a phone and can reasonably afford airtime to make calls. Truth is this business no longer exists. It has since gone into extinction.

Exactly
You can even see a little boy that has a phone in these days so the business cannot do well

I am not sure though but starting a call center might not be as lucrative as it used to be back then. These days almost everyone have access to phones, so they might not need a smart phone.

This kind of business has completely become obsolete. But I remember how this business thrived back in the days.. Truly, the business world keeps evolving.

The business cannot even be lucrative again
The person will just waste his time.

The business is not so popular in my country that it cannot be profitable. This is because the mobile phones have become so popular and almost every person has got a an access to a phone over going for call centers.

You need millions once set up a call center. There are many things to prepare and the first salary for the employees must be prepared. You also need high definition computers and landline phones.

It will require an investment of at least 10 million and if you can set up a call center and get it working then you can expect good amount of profit as many outsource their services

You are very right and it's not everyone that's going to happen I'm out of money to start up the business but it's a good one if the person has enough money to run the business

This is a highly needed business idea as call Center is a needed business option since all companies require a customer support to reach their customer so it needs huge amount

I don't have much idea on anything related to call centers but I don't believe that it cost much to start them.
But honestly speaking I feel like the profit is not worth the stress of operation

It is very rare for you to see someone who does not have a phone including young and old people so that kind of business is not lucrative anymore here
Some years ago it was actually a very good business which a lot of graduates who are unable to get job can easily start with at least a minimum of $200 but now our telecommunication companies have made it a business that is not paying much for people who are interested in doing it.

You need big money to set up a call center. From the space, the software and equipment, it is an expensive business to start up. I don't even think it is something that one person can conveniently set up.
