With Ksh500,000, business plan and focus getting a financier if we
wont have gotten the sufficient capital will not be an issue. Example
right now l have a briefcase IT company offering products and services
with a proposed budget of Ksh700,000 and thats a total nighmare. As a
team we reduce the investment risk, cost of operations and create a
maturely competitive work environment. Just an idea.
