Solar presentation
8:00 As it should be for "German punctuality" Jonas and I stand in front of our office and wait for our boss with the key.
8:30 8:15 ... The boss is there, the key does not, another colleague has it.
8:35 The key is there, we enter the office.
9:00 Eigentlich hatten wir mal angedacht, um 9:00 los zu fahren, jetzt ist an die Abfahrt noch nicht zu denken. Flyer müssen noch gedruckt werden, der Techniker ist noch nicht da und Gwakisa, der die Präsentation durchführen wird, hat noch andere Arbeit zu tun.
9:30 Langsam kristallisiert sich heraus, dass wir die 2 benötigten Motorräder gar nicht zur Verfügung haben. Eins ist kaputt und mindestens eins wird von einem anderen Kollegen gebraucht.
9:45 Was tun? Ohne Motorräder können wir nicht fahren, die Kosten für ein Mietwagen sind, wie vorher festgestellt, einfach zu hoch. Vielleicht wird ja doch ein weiteres Motorrad gemietet, aber auch da reicht unser Geld nicht from.
10:00 Suddenly we can rent a car with driver but for a good price, we can not afford for all presentations, but the first presentation is backed up only once. Departure will be 10:30.
10:30 The car is not for the technicians.
11:00 The technology is there, now we can finally leave. The car is packed with the solar stuff.
11:10 Now we are just waiting for Gwakisa, but this has not work.
11:15 Gwakisa is there, now have to fast the last Flyer to be printed.
11:20 flyers are ready, but it turns out that actually Gwakisa do not know where to go.
11:30 Now we are waiting Ipyana, another colleague, who knows where to go and I will ride the bike forward.
11:35 Ipyana is there, he says we must hurry, actually we should all be there at 11:00.
11:45 All are ready, now is only waiting for Ipyana who do still something.
12:00 but now is really going on.
12:30 Arrival in Lugombo Village. Welcome, unpacking and building.
13:00 begins the solar presentation. I'm excited about 30 people and try to tell them something of SODIS principle, a process in which one with solar energy Water to sterilize.
13:05 Gwakisa does. Now Tujijenge is presented Microfinance and our Solar Loan.
13:15 Gideon takes the technician, he says something about how gross solar systems and answered numerous questions.
13:50 The last question was answered. People are interested and want to leave it here all mobile phone recharge by solar power. Firm commitments to purchase, they do not make them. The interest is there, the money does not necessarily. So we travel without any from a contact, but have, however, the feeling of having held a successful presentation. Potential readers want to now the next day in our office report, we'll see how many people will come.
All in all a successful presentation that was in my view, very professional. There was some coordination problems are still with the Flyers, the first had been recently completed. Also, we should perhaps examine again the groups in which we make the presentations, this group is to focus their income mainly from agriculture and the main selling season for rice is only in June.
Nevertheless, a promising start to a hopefully successful series of presentations. Above all, it is reassuring to make notes that will be provided without delay despite successful work problems.
