Remote Systems Readiness Checklist for Nigerian Startups
Check that service presentation and inquiry handling are ready before automating or adding commerce.

Define your first offer
State what is available now, who it is for, how people inquire, and what happens next. Separate future services from currently deliverable ones.
Walk through an inquiry
Using sample information, test how a person finds the contact route, how the message reaches your team, and who responds when the first owner is unavailable.
Map one internal workflow
Note each task, approver, and source document from inquiry to completion. Identify what needs a shared tracker before requesting a custom dashboard.
Validate commerce providers
Confirm eligibility, location support, approval requirements, taxes, fees, and refund processes directly with the chosen provider. A proposed integration does not mean provider approval.
Set review and training roles
Name a single approver for digital changes, schedule cross-border feedback windows, and decide who will administer accounts after launch.
Bring one non-sensitive customer journey and the first process you want to improve to a discovery conversation.
