my name is peter, growing up and schooling in kenya my life was basically doomed to employment, where our education system basically grooms you to work get a couple of promotions maybe move though a few more jobs before you retire and your children follow suite.
But i decided to take a different route after working in the customer service industry for five years and going through the motions of picking calls, responding to clients queries and believing that i can do better,
So i quit my job in 2014 and decided to start a digital signage company to fill the marketing gap that is in our marketing sector, i have come to believe in the kenyan dream and that kenya is a country where anything is possible, we have a lot of unexplored opportunities and a lot of problems that we can find solutions and monetize them,
The going has not been easy for me, i have failed a few times but i believe that is how we get to learn on how or how not to do business. and i am glad that by the time i get to start a family i will not only be a father to my kids, but also a business mentor and an example of a successful businessman.
I spend my free time playing rugby as which is a game that relates to what goes on in the business world, never give up no matter how big your challenges are, and no matter how many times you get knocked down you can always get up and score that try.
my business is a digital signage marketing platform www.infinitymedia.co.ke that enables our clients to ran their adverts in screens placed in our public transport vehicles that comprise of 32 seater buses that operate within Nairobi popularly known as matatus and 64 seater buses that travel long distance, our platform is android based and enables us to ran live tv , update adverts in real-time as well as interact with passengers,
currently i have 2 screens but i would like to add this to number 10 before the end of the year, this will enable me to approach cooperate clients as well as be able to branch out into other towns
our revenue currently is 1000usd a month which mainly goes to paying the host location(buses) as well as growing the business.
Just like my previous loan im using this to buildup my profile so that i can qualify for a loan that will help my business move forward.
However im going to use this amount to top up on what i have and buy
one more android mini pc at a cost of 75usd , this will enable me to add the number of my digital signage of my active digital signage screens.
