Who it's for
Solo developer or 2-person team with basic full-stack skills. Sell to working professionals (25–45) in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana earning in USD or local currency.
How to build it
1. Build a 5–7 question quiz (anxiety level, sleep quality, work stress type) using React or Vue with conditional routing — no backend complexity yet.
2. Generate a one-page personalized 'Wellness Score' PDF showing stress profile + recommended practices (breathing, body scan, journaling prompts) — use Puppeteer or similar for PDF generation.
3. Gate the full report behind email capture; send it via Mailchimp/Brevo with a follow-up sequence pitching a 14-day course bundle ($9–19 USD).
4. Build 3–5 short courses (5–15 min videos, text guides) in a simple LMS (Teachable, Mighty Networks, or self-built with Stripe + video embeds).
5. Drive traffic via TikTok, Instagram Reels (quick stress-relief tips), and WhatsApp community shares — target working professionals and startup founders.

Your edge as a builder from anywhere
Wellness & mental health is severely underserved in Nigeria/Africa yet professional stress is rising fast. Most competitors target Western markets; you own the African narrative — local pricing, payment via Flutterwave/Paystack, and messaging around Nigerian work culture (long hours, job insecurity, family pressure). Quiz-based distribution is viral-friendly on social — no ad spend needed early. L
