The most interesting aspect is that you don’t need much money to start, and you can even do it alongside with your day-to-day job.
If you have a smart phone or laptop connected to the internet, you’re already well equipped for the business. However, you need to understand how subscription business operates.
TV / Cable Subscription business is a type of business model in which people pay a certain amount monthly / yearly in other to enjoy certain benefits / services through their cable channels.
And there is more focus on retaining customer than getting new customers.
Now that you have the basic understanding of subscription business, the next step is to do a survey in your local community.
You need to find out the average number of people using DStv, Startime and GOtv monthly in your area.
Endeavor to separate the people using it from those that just have it lying down at home.
If you have around 30 people making use of the above cable mentioned then you are good to go with these lucrative business.
Here Is A Quick Step To Start Dstv, Gotv, And Startime Subscription Business
1. Payment Stage For Dstv, Gotv And Startime Subscribers.
As an agent of Gotv and other numerous cable channels that I have listed above, paying for the subscription is the easiest part and we’ve over 10 ways to do it.
However, I advice you use Quickteller, GTBank Mobile App Or Rechargeandgetpaid because of their good user interface.
Pay For Subscribers Through Quickteller
Paying through Quickteller is free, you just need to have a mastercard/visa ATM to pay for the subscription fee. Then you pay using the below link:
DStv – www.quickteller.com/dstv
GOtv – www.quickteller.com/gotv
STARTIME - www.quickteller.com/startime
Pay For Subscribers Through GTBank App
For GTBank mobile app, the subscription fee will be deducted directly from your account balance.
So you just need to login, navigate over to the menu,
• choose other payments option,
• choose cable TV,
• choose GOtv, Startime or DStv, then
• choose the plans you want, enter the decoder number then PAY.
NOTE: GTBank charges ₦100 for this services.
Pay For Subscribers Through Recharge And Get Paid
This is my favorite part in any subscription business in Nigeria and other countries, you don't only do subscription here but can buy data, buy airtime, pay for Nepa bills and much more and still get paid doing it.
Aside from the extra income that you get that subscribers pay you, these company rewards you for also making use of their payment gateway.
However, when doing the Cable / TV subscription business, if you’re in a very competitive environment, charging ₦200 commission will help you get more customers, knowing fully well that it only cost you ₦100 to pay for the service.
How To Receive Payment For Your Subscription Business
You need to ensure that you have added your commission to the total amount of the plan/package the customer is subscribing on GOtv/DStv/Startime.
You can now request for payment into your bank account or cash if you have an office location.
If you always accept cash payment, you need to ensure that enough money is in your bank account, so that you can always have money to pay for the subscription.

It’s beyond doubt that branding will get you more customers and increase your sales. However, it all depends on the budget you have. You can decide to:
• Open an office in an accessible location.
• Create online presence with Facebook and Instagram page.
• Operate a Whatsapp group.
• Run Facebook ads.
• Create a website to operate 24/7.
• Create a branded shirt and walk into corporate offices to get new customers.
Most companies will even patronize you if they don’t have to leave their office before they get the subscription done. However, you need to build the trust.

Having good customer relationship is key in business, and it also determines whether your business will grow its monthly customers. Below are my tips on relating well with customers:
Always thank your customers for even chatting you up or visiting your office, because they can as well decide to visit someone else (another competitor).
Work on your delivery time. If you promise 1 hour, deliver within 30 minutes.
Follow up on your customers: You can ask for reasons why a customer haven’t subscribed or what other assistant do they need after subscribing.
