I've invented my own portmanteau today to describe a way in which I think many jobless/retrenched Kenyans may find gainful employment. A jobpreneur is a person with a skillset suitable for an office job who outsources her skills to willing payers through the Internet. A jobpreneur is a worker and therefore will want a business model that almost approches an employer-employee relationship. But a jobpreneur is also a businessperson because she is ready to control the future of her income through her own hard work. A jobpreneurs skillsets are diverse but primarily use the computer: data entry, transcription, graphic design, software development, language editing, music composition, research, journalism etc. Genius Executive Center is helping jobpreneurs set-up their operations and start earning money using their skills by providing furnished offices, consultancy and financing. With K.Shs. a 10,000 investment, Genius can help you earn from K.Shs. 30,000 per month. Prospective jobpreneurs now have an opportunity to make a decent income using their skills.
Differences between a Business Name (Sole-Proprietorship / Partnership) and a Limited Liability Company
While consulting for our online company registration service, Incorporator I find myself answering the question "What is the difference between a sole-proprietorship and a company?" Anybody who is considering starting a business must consider what type of business structure is needed for his or her particular situation. In Kenya there are three types of structures that one can use to start their business. 1. An LLC, or Limited Liability Company 2. A sole proprietorship 3.

In this article all references to sole-proprietorship also include partnership. Understanding the advantages and disadvantages of each structure is important when deciding which one you want to use for your company. ...

Are you the same guy for SoftLaw, if so congratulations on you and your partner's success.
I'm sure we don't have a policy for recruiting only under 24's. I know there are two vacancies which require 26 and under, but for all other positions there is no age limit. You're right though that most of our employees are in the 24 or under age bracket, but this is more of a coincidence.

What is the difference between the 9,999/- and 20,000/- plans?
You should put up a table that shows the benefits of the different plans at a glance.
Is the fee payable monthly or annually?
Is there VAT?
What calls are allowed for free?
Great idea and I am seriously consdering it!
Right on! You guys are so innovative. This is something that you could export all over the continent.
It makes good business sense. Here in the States there's a similiar business model called "office suites" whereby small consultants use a shared phone line, shared computer, time-shared office space or conference room, mailing address (with their own individualized "suite#").
It worked too, the company that I, at one time, co-owned was actually a tenant of such a suite.
