Youth enterprise
Have a business idea in Kamonyi? Start with a customer need, test the idea on a small scale, then plan the money and skills you need.
- 01
Start with a customer need
Choose a need you could meet with your skills, such as repairs, tailoring, processing produce or another service. Talk to potential customers about what they currently use and what they would like improved. Record their answers.
- 02
Run an affordable small trial
Plan a small trial with a clear goal and time limit. List materials, workspace and transport costs. Confirm the requirements for your activity first; afterwards review actual paying customers, costs and receipts.
- 03
Plan funding and skills
Separate the tools and money you already have from what is still missing. List the skills you need and where to learn them. RDB describes district business advisory services; ask in Kamonyi where current advice and training are available.
- 04
Write the next-step plan
Bring together the trial results, customers reached, costs and the next month’s goal. If working with others, record each person’s responsibilities. Use this plan to ask the SACCO about available services; an idea or training does not guarantee a loan or grant.
