What exactly is Zuku's business strategy

I'm a very curious to know who in Zuku makes the decision of which part of town gets connected to the Zuku fiber. I'm asking because for the life of me I cannot figure out why a place like Otiende is connected to the fiber and place like upperhill is not. Doesnt it make more sense to connect an emerging business district like upperhill before connecting a place like Otiende which far from CBD? -- Stephen Gacheru www.stephengacheru.me

It may that its easier to set it up in Otiende than in upperhill On Thu, May 19, 2011 at 2:19 PM, Stephen Gacheru <stephengacheru@gmail.com>wrote:

Cant speak for their business strategy since I don't have the inside scoop but their roll-out is painfully slow. maybe the cashflow issues? On Thu, May 19, 2011 at 2:28 PM, Paul Kevin <paultitude@gmail.com> wrote:

They could also be facing hurdles like this office block on Lenana Road that will not let them connect fibre unless "they pay rent for the cable being there". On Thu, May 19, 2011 at 15:30, Alvin Jason Ochieng <ajochola@gmail.com>wrote:

This may sound silly; but trees exist for a reason; has anyone ever considered hitchin a microwave on a tree next to a building that has refused the great 'ways of fiber' ???

How? Brother Wash,
Siiiimple! Method 1: Eye-dentify at least 5 major tenants who need the fiber service. Conspire with their management to issue quit threats to the bldg management if fiber is not allowed. It's called arm-twisting. Method 2: A lot dirtier so I can't tell here.
