About the company: Upande's mission is to enable smart, transformative, reliable data driven decisions for our diverse customers across Africa. We have a great innovative team building world class solutions with the latest technology such as Internet of Things, GIS, drones, etc. We are poor at marketing, yet need to position ourselves and get market share urgently!

Project Description: Vipimo (www.vipimo.co.ke) is one of our latest products that enables Internet of Things technology to relay key parameters from the field to one's app. We have mastered the technology though are moving way too slow with capturing testimonials, success stories, and setting up proper internal/external marketing and sales engines. We need a champion who gets a lot of energy out of setting this up from scratch, with interesting potential for growth in a very virgin market!
