How to Start Your CCTV Installation Business
1. Get Trained at MTTI
Your foundation starts here. Complete the course, ask lots of questions, and get hands-on practice. Don’t rush—the better you understand the systems, the more confident you’ll be with clients.
2. Build Your Startup Kit
You’ll need basic tools: a drill, screwdrivers, wire strippers, a multimeter, and a ladder. Budget around KES 10,000–15,000 for quality tools. You don’t need everything at once—start with the essentials.
3. Source Suppliers
Identify reliable suppliers in Eldoret or Nairobi who can provide quality cameras and DVRs at competitive prices. Good relationships with suppliers mean better margins for you.
4. Market Yourself Locally
Start by telling friends, family, and neighbors about your services. Create a simple WhatsApp status or Facebook page showing before-and-after photos of installations. Word-of-mouth is powerful in Eldoret.
5. Offer Competitive Pricing & Great Service
Research what other installers charge in Eldoret, but don’t compete on price alone. Stand out by offering quality work, clear communication, and reliable after-sales support.
Real Money-Making Potential
Let’s be honest—what can you actually earn? A typical residential CCTV installation (4 cameras + DVR + installation) can cost a client KES 25,000–40,000. Your profit margin could be 30–50%, depending on the job complexity and your supplier costs. That means you could make KES 7,500–20,000 per job.
If you land just 3–4 jobs per month, that’s a solid KES 22,500–80,000 monthly income—enough to support yourself while building your business.
