Thread:Sustaining BDS Programmes (3)

Hi Jealous and Colleaques,

The sustainability model that is good for entrepreneur are:


 * Conducting a BDS market assessment - this has to do with understanding the markets in order to identify weaknesses and opportunities which has to do with demand and supply of services and the extent of market distortion
 * Agree on Delivery and payment Mechanisms- This requires attention to delivery and payment mechanisms as part of the BDS products
 * Have an Exist Strategy as the start - This need to be built in the implementation and roll out of project but not at the mid-way 0r towards the end of the project
 * Proper selection of Partner Institutions-This has to do with developing a transactional relationships with small enerprises clients based on exchange rather than charity,

These are practical tips that i and few that i know put into consideration for their enterpreneurship development and yielded positive result.
