This is good biz. At present, Magnate ventures is enjoying near monopoly and an apt competitor would ensure customers get to pay lower costs

i thought this is a mafia business. very difficult to get in and when in you block everyone else, what magnate ventures are doing. Previously adopt-a-alight
The only time you should be looking down on others is when you are helping them up.

I am good at such also and worse.
@a4,Magnate ventures charges on average 100k a month a billboard and you provide the canvas material and print it yourself.If Magnate supplies the printed canvas they charge an extra 50k.My conservative estimates show Magnate has over 4000 billboards and coukd be raking 400m a month in turnover.

The big problem for new entrants is where to place his billboards all highways ,roads and buildings in major cities have been taken . Thika superhighway was the only one left but some adverts have begun to appear on some of the overpasses

Don't also underestimate what the guys behind this businesses are capable either. Contracts that involve kanjo are not a good area of business. People in this business have been known to pass on to the next world in ways that send a message...

even the others charge around the same as magnate, the adsite and alliance guys that is, at around 110k and they do the printing at 55k

but magnate seems to have the best locations, and they have invested in some nice printing equipments - so far they give some the best colour out puts at the 10 by 12.

I assume they have some agreement with the city council for a good number of their prime locations, I have never seen any form of competitive bidding for those locations.

I am prepared to battle even though I will start small.One can also acquire sites from highrise building owners.Fyi I am also capable of dispatching others to Makueni save for a few VIPs with adequate security measures.
