The Breaking Point
In December 2023, Doormot launched with big dreams to revolutionize Nigeria's property technology sector. Eight months later, reality hit hard: zero customers, no product-market fit, and depleting resources.
"We had built what we thought the market needed," recalls Doormot's CEO. "But we were talking to ourselves. The market wasn't listening, and we were running out of time."
This is where MegaCode entered the picture.
The MegaCode Solution: Strategic Surgery, Not Just Staffing
Phase 1: Deep Diagnosis (Month 1)
- • Market Research: Analyzed Nigeria's proptech ecosystem and successful players like SmallSmall and Spleet
- • Business Model Audit: Dissected their entire value proposition
- • Customer Analysis: Mapped every potential customer interaction
The Discovery:
Doormot was solving a problem that didn't exist in their target segment.
Phase 2: Strategic Rebuild (Month 2)
- • New Value Proposition: Shifted from generic property management to solving Nigeria's transparency crisis
- • Target Market Pivot: Moved from individual renters to B2B2C model targeting developers
- • Revenue Model: Created multiple streams with clear unit economics
The Transformation:
Before MegaCode: "We're a proptech company that makes property management easier"
After MegaCode: "We're the trust infrastructure for Nigeria's $30B property market, eliminating fraud and enabling transparent transactions"
The Results: Immediate and Dramatic
Rapid Success (Months 3-5)
- • 5 enterprise clients signed, including major Lagos property developers
- • First revenue generated since inception
- • Product-market fit achieved with clear validation
Scaling and Funding (Months 6-8)
- • Global Network: Connected them with investors in Dubai, Saudi Arabia, and the US
- • Strategic Pitch: Crafted compelling narrative for international investors
- • Talent Deployment: Provided customer-empathetic engineers and PMs who understood Nigerian market dynamics
- • Funding Result: Pre-seed round exceeded target by 200%
Today: A PropTech Success Story

The Ongoing Partnership
Doormot retains MegaCode as technical and business advisors, positioning for continental expansion across Africa and beyond.
"MegaCode didn't just save our company—they gave us a roadmap to become the proptech leader we always envisioned. They're not service providers; they're strategic partners who made our impossible dream inevitable."
