exposure I picked up interest in IT and IT related affairs.
The vision of my company is to be the Technology partner
of choice for small and medium – sized business in different lines of
specialized industries including manufacturing industries, construction
companies, retail outlets, architectural firms, etc. We are going to serve these
firms by creating a customized IT plan that will support their businesses by
increasing their efficiency, unlocking their potential clients and serving their
clients better while taking account of their forecasted growth strategy.

Cash flow planning
Analysis of cost
Internal and cash control
·
Internet
café services – customer buy airtime ticket from cashier before proceeding to
browsing hall.
·
For
other services (web hosting, Graphic Design, IT consulting & commercial
printing) – Customers will obtain bills for any of the services from staff
providing the service, pay the bills with the cashier and return to the person
providing the service for the services to be rendered.
By
the end of each day’s business, each sector manager will report the total
billing of services offered from his sector for the day to the General Manager.
On his part the cashier will also bring the total receipt paid for the day.
This will represent the total billing from all the sectors for that day.
Training
We
offer IT services therefore we will engage IT experts to train our essential IT
staff.
Competitors
My
strongest competitors are Abti ventures, City Cyber Café and First Class
Computer. They are all in very good location and they have high rating from
customers, but they offer only internet café services, scanning and
photocopying. Hamman Yero Printing Press and a few others are my competitor for
the Commercial Printing. They are still using the old fashion printing
equipments, I intend to go Digital. All these competitors don’t have any
serious e-commerce plans for now.
I
intend to combine some of the IT services they offer like the IT consulting,
Commercial printing and internet café services, so that customers don’t have to
go different places for similar services.
Growth program (expansion)
We
are offering IT and IT support Services for now, we intend to go into sales of
selected IT Gadgets base on survey of our customers demand.
As
the business grows we intend to increase the capacity of our sector managers by
increasing the number of our outlets and increasing the work force under their
control.
