Describe your project or startup in a few words
I want to put Digital Billboards in parts of Kenya so as to help young entrepreneurs with opportunity to advertise their products/services and projects at a cost friendly rates .
01.01 Describe your startup in more detail
I have had a dream to run advertisement company, considering how costly it's in my country to rent an advertisement space, I am coming up with a modern platform and cost friendly to be able to support small and medium enterprises to be able to reach out to more potential consumers of their products and services. Equally we target to have the platform helpful to manufacturers and sellers of farm inputs to be able to reach wider audience of farmers since we target to have the billboards mostly in the small towns near farming communities. Digital Billboards offers real time advertisement and will be more communicative compared to still billboards or other print advertisement.
01.02 What is the main problem you are trying to solve?
We are trying to solve high cost and unlimited advertisement opportunity that for long have made young entrepreneurs shy to reach out to a wide audience that would have been potential consumers of their products and services.
01.03 Tell us the major benefits and/or advantages of using the product/service that your startup provides (at least 3).
Advantages of Using Digital Billboards: 1. Cost friendly for small businesses and farmers . 2. Cost effective to run since we run multiple advertisements from different companies 3. Eye catching advertisement as compared to traditional billboards so it's difficult to ignore the information. 4. Interactive so it guarantee audience for products and services advertised here in.

Small and medium enterprises, these are businesses that don't make huge profits, we'll support them by providing this platform for them to reach out to more potential consumers. 3.
