A Christian Resource for Microenterprise Development
Development Resources
Hi Friends out there -
Four development ideas. We would appreciate your views on some or all of these ideas:
1. Model Microenterprises
We have started to develop a portfolio of successful model microbusinesses which will be detailed on our website - so far, we have a hairdresser, a Christian bookshop and a food shop. The idea is to provide as much detail as possible including and video clips to help anyone thinking of starting something similar. We will pay a modest sum for this information which we need in a standard format
2. On Line Trading Direct
We are considering, possibly a separate website for microbusiness producers in developing countries to promote and sell their goods direct to customers on line, receiving orders and making direct delivery to customers - with the customers paying the producer direct - via a Pay Pal account. We would need to receive a sample of any product to be included to ensure the quality is satisfactory. We may apply Fair Trade principles to all products
3. Plant and Equipment
We are also considering detailing global sources of micro- scale processing plant and equipment on our website - if this would be helpful?
4. Newsletter
Most significant news and developments will be posted onto the website
However, would it be helpful if we also started sending you occasional updating newsletters on developments ?
Your comments on any of these developments or any other topics related to microenterprise will be most welcome - either by email or by using the blog below
