What I need help with
My background as an entrepreneur
My current challenges
Getting the website operational. Selling, advertising and marketing my product. Accessing finance for staff payroll and advertising as we work on breaking even. Translation transaction history into proper financial records.
Actions I’ve taken so far
I've set up a running website that is so far informational. Ran the prototype of the online classes for 8 months with wonderful results. Students have loved being taught online and readily paid to continue. They were satisfied with the service. If this product is well marketed and it's story told, we can have more satisfied students.
My future goals
Self learning website with a payment portal and learning platform where students can register and maintain their accounts in the website perennially. Online classes taught in different geographical locations in the worl, handling 40-50 students at a time. More languages taught by more trained native teachers living in their native countries.
My motivations to work with a mentor
To help streamline the business. Critical advise and guidance on how to grow the business. Benefit from their network.
About my venture
Aila Kenya Academy Started 2019
We teach Mandarin Chinese physically plus online. I have been teaching for 10years. In addition I have two native Chinese teachers living and studying in a university in China as my teaching staff. A student enrols and is taught online by the teachers and then over the weekend comes to our physical location for further practical classes. I also have a website with premium Audios that a student can sign in through a portal, pay a minimal monthly fee and access the audios.
Countries of operation: Kenya
