TWEZIMBE DIGITAL PROGRAM

The main issue Twezimbe digital program is trying to solve is to connect the disconnected people in communities by enabling them to create digital communities on Gopien.com platform where they are able to know what each community member does and support each other in business to grow together.

Other issues the program is trying to solve

1.Someone has a laptop/smartphone and access to internet, but doesn’t know how to Start a business online or to  grow a current business faster with community support

2.A student out there is struggling to get an early start on life  skills  and to  build  own legit business online while still at school but has no skills and capital is $25 and below

3. Someone has an organized community but does not know how to build and grow it faster with less effort, keep it active and same time make money from it on auto-pilot while members get empowered to connect, help and support in each other in business to grow together

So, we welcome;

1.  Individuals to start their own businesses on the platform

2. Communities/ organized groups like; churches,schools, clubs, companies and towns or cities to establish their communities on the platform. Just whatsApps:+256750048861 to learn more

First of all, people fail to develop because they are disconnected in communities where they live,work and study. Making it difficulty for community members to know what each member does to support themselves

So, Twezimbe Digital program on Gopien.com platform aim to bring people together in communities and empower them to connect, help themselves and support each other in business to grow together.

HOW IT WORKS?

First of all, each new member joins the program under an already established digital community on the platform and in case there is no digital community in his or her town or city on the platform, then is able to establish a digital community and invite community members to join it order to work together or to know what each community member does and support each other  in business to grow together.

Once one join the program, is either able to start a new business online or to grow a current business faster with less effort and investment and with the support of community members.
For example,
When one join and already has a business, the program enables him or her to set up a business website to sell more online or showcase his or her products and services to potential customers globally with support of community members.
Sample websites: https://gopien.com/b/watchshop ,https://gopien.com/b/dreamcars  , https://gopien.com/b/homep , https://gopien.com/b/jesusaliv... , https://gopien.com/b/propoerti... 

And for Job seekers/Students without businesses, the program enables them to make money on the platform in several ways without selling. All they have to do is to join and be ready to use of their time on the platform

First of all, NOBODY is left behind in this program, regardless of your education background or where you live in the world. below are some of those it is trying to improve their lives

• The Employed, Self-employed and Unemployed
• Students/Youth and the disabled
• Schools and Churches
• Retirees and Expats/Foreigners
• Artists/Celebrities and Bloggers
• Community groups and Leaders
• Wholesalers, Suppliers, Manufacturers and Retailers, etc.
• Professionals, Corporate Companies and Government ministries

Many young people  with smartphones or laptops and with access to internet connection world wide are jobless due to lack of skills and capital. While the employed or talented people are also struggling to start a second hustle or side business  that does not require them to break a bank.

The Gopien.com business model, gives everyone (rich or poor and educated or uneducated ) an opportunity to start a business online from anywhere and with less effort and investment and it is free to get started.

Secondly, the business model will help bring together people in local communities anywhere in the world and empower them to connect, learn to help themselves in times of financial needs to any member and most importantly be able to support each other in business to grow together.

For students in higher institutions, will be able to get an early start on life skills, start their own businesses while still at school, stay focused, build their social capital and most importantly, will help students to stay connected, helping themselves and supporting each other to grow together after studies/graduation

We are community leaders, therefore, we do understand the challenges our communities and  members are facing or failing us to develop and one of them is the lack of unity or a digital platform where we are able to communicate, share information and skill, network or connect and support each other in business to grow together

The already available social networking platforms and others  did not meet our demands for equal opportunity and therefore, we had to create a new digital program with features based on local issues or aimed at uplifting lives for everyone and with NOBODY LEFT BEHIND.

Secondly, the founder of Twezimbe digital program on the Gopien.com platform has an experience of over 10 years in website development and hosting. But the biggest challenge ever faced in this business is that most of the small  business owners, hardly afford to pay for independent website hosting and development and those who happen to manage to host one, over 80% hardly manage to renew their website hosting after the first year. Twezimbe Digital Program on Gopien.com platform  help solve that problem to anyone who wants to start a business online or to take his or her business online. By making it easy and affordable to get a business website through the Gopien.com platform. It only costs $5 to set up a business website like this one www.gopien.com/b/watchshop or https://gopien.com/b/homep and no skills required to set up. And the platform is also backed up by many skilled developers in different countries who keep on modifying and adding in new features based on local demand and not a global setting

Thirdly, most jobless young people locally  have smartphones or laptops and with internet access, but only use those resources to discuss events. Twezimbe Digital program on Gopien.com enables anyone and everywhere to start a business online using those resources at their disposal and above all, No skills required, and it is free to get started

In addition to above, we have so far helped many start new businesses online  and those with running businesses, we have helped them to gain online presence using Twezimbe digital program on Gopien.com platform.

Lastly, Many people are taught business ideas but without an easier way to get started. The difference with Twezimbe digital program on  Gopien.com is  that YOU LEARN HOW IT WORKS BY RUNNING YOUR OWN BUSINESS ON THE PLATFORM. No waiting for tomorrow. After all, it is free to join and start working immediately.

The platform was officially opened to the public in December 2022 and therefore, it is currently serving over 500 plus people and growing.
