[1/30, 7:52 AM] mdmawere1: Morning

[1/30, 8:00 AM] Assan Kadango: Morning boss how are you

[1/30, 8:11 AM] mdmawere1: Fine and you.

[1/30, 8:18 AM] Assan Kadango: I’m splendid boss

[1/30, 8:26 AM] mdmawere1: Are you still following?

[1/30, 8:26 AM] Assan Kadango: Yes boss .

[1/30, 8:31 AM] mdmawere1: Would you mind being an independent business correspondent (IBC) under the BOAF borderless community building initiative?

You will get 10% of the profit generated from the transactions you will have generated using the e-boaf platform.

[1/30, 8:52 AM] Assan Kadango: How does it operates boss I’m eager to I need to make money boss

[1/30, 9:02 AM] mdmawere1: Great.

[1/30, 9:02 AM] mdmawere1: #1 Guts

[1/30, 9:03 AM] mdmawere1: #2 Accepting to be an IBC?

[1/30, 9:04 AM] mdmawere1: #3 Before being an appointed IBC, you need to know what this identity is and is not and how it will affect your visibility.

[1/30, 9:04 AM] mdmawere1: What do you think an IBC is and is not?

[1/30, 9:23 AM] mdmawere1: [1/30, 8:43 AM] mdmawere1: Hello can you type. I am in a noisy place

[1/30, 8:44 AM] Mdhakisi Born2entertain: Registration keeps bouncing back on post code

[1/30, 8:45 AM] mdmawere1: What message do you get.

[1/30, 8:46 AM] Mdhakisi Born2entertain: Will screen shot n send in a bit

[1/30, 8:47 AM] mdmawere1: Great

[1/30, 9:24 AM] Assan Kadango: I think IBC it’s an intiative which allows me to do my business independently under rules and regulations of BOAF platform

[1/30, 9:25 AM] mdmawere1: What is an ecocash agent?

[1/30, 9:30 AM] Assan Kadango: An ecocash agent  is a trusted person who acts on behalf of Ecocash

[1/30, 9:30 AM] mdmawere1: Do you agree that an agent is a channel actor in the value chain to an end customer?

[1/30, 9:31 AM] Assan Kadango: Yes I agree with you

[1/30, 9:33 AM] mdmawere1: Do you agree that for an agent to exist, there must be an independent agent?

[1/30, 9:35 AM] Assan Kadango: Yes of coz you should be independent to avoid inconveniences

[1/30, 9:41 AM] mdmawere1: Should independence be about convenience or the reality is that the buyer of the cement pays the seller and the seller in order to sell would have bought the cement independently without the knowledge of the buyer and the seller would have paid transport costs deom an independent supplier of the services. The seller invoice the buyer and the money collected will be distributed by the supplier to independent value adding actors. If the customer fails to pay, the supplier cannot use non-payment by his chosen independent value actors as an excuse for not paying. If the buyer fails to take and pay for product sold and delivered, the seller would assume the non-payment risk and equally if the buyer fails to pay, the seller would have to absorb the costs incurred including the loss of income.

[1/30, 9:58 AM] mdmawere1: I thought we were trying to understand what an IBC is and is not.

[1/30, 9:58 AM] mdmawere1: Is an IBC not a value chain actor to bridge the buyer and seller?

[1/30, 9:59 AM] mdmawere1: The bank is an IBC, the transporter is an IBC, the admin in the chain is IBC etc

[1/30, 10:08 AM] mdmawere1: TOWARDS UNDERSTANDING IBC AS A BRIDGE

5. To this end, I am informed by Mr. Mawere, a fellow paid up member that you are not yet a paid up member.

6. In the premises, before enrolling you, I would like to confirm if you are interested in being part of this bank of problem solvers who through this initiative will raise awareness of the power of building networks for people who choose to be part of them.

7. I trust that you will find the above in order.
