Idea

We offer web design at lower pricing including 1 year hosting,The company has been running 1 year, which makes it hard to get funding from banks or lenders, they require 2 years + running. With a growth in interest in cloud services, We able to offer cloud migration at a lower price compared to competitors.

The company is currently trading by needs to increase marketing strategy

Current Status

The company has been operating for 5 Month, we have a few regular clients that we provide cloud management services to and web design on a regular basis. We have made over £14k the first few months.

We use client recommendations, word of mouth and online ads to reach perspective clients.

Problem or Opportunity

The company has been running 1 year, which makes it hard to get funding from banks or lenders, they require 2 years + running. With a growth in interest in cloud services, We able to offer cloud migration at a lower price compared to competitors. Local companies require websites but a lower prices, we offer our services at half the price of competitors.

There are several risks and challenges associated with this project, including:
Funding Shortfall: The primary challenge is securing the necessary £10,000 to launch the IT center.

Sustainability: Ensuring the long-term viability of the center and its services could be impacted by fluctuating demand or operational costs.
Community Engagement: Attracting local participants to take advantage of the IT training and printing services might be challenging if awareness is not effectively raised.

Solution (product or service)

To keep the business running, I have been bootstrapping until we find the required funding.
