With elections around the corner, I'm thinking it could be a good time to go into the printing business. Does anyone know how deals are structured with political parties - e.g. pay half now and half on delivery?
Thinking of using a cost plus pricing method, though I don't know how competitors determine their prices. No need for high prices because it would be a volume business, correct?

You will burn to recognition unless you are offering a professional seriously expertise service like @masukuma with data (manipulation). GL In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins - cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later - H Geneen

Just visit many of the printing firms and pretend you are an aspiring politician and you require their services.After that you will be in a better postion to know if to proceed or not.

just run a vote tallying topup business, you will be rich like heeeelo
Although on a different note may be you just run a witchcraft business ( promising guys they will win the election after paying kitu 1 M) and disappear when the counting is going on
