Seriously, Where Do You Get Your Fundis From?

Be honest.

How many times have you had to post that question in a WhatsApp group, scream it into a Facebook comment thread, or worse, trust your cousin's "guy" who once fixed a bulb and now thinks he's qualified to rewire an entire mansion?


“Where do you get your fundis from?” is probably the most Kenyan cry for help. And it’s not just fundis, it's plumbers, bakers, makeup artists, errand runners, photographers, dog trainers, CV writers, and even that one guy who says he can do literally everything but shows up with only a screwdriver and good vibes.


We’ve been held hostage by the referral economy. If you don’t know someone who knows someone, well, good luck. You're on your own in this chaotic Nairobi wilderness.


Enter SErraND. The Plug Wa Kazi.


SErraND isn’t just another shiny startup trying to look busy. It’s a platform built from frustration, from years of calling friends to ask, “Do you know anyone who can fix this?”

It’s a digital revolution in work and service delivery, for the people, by the people.


Here’s the thing, we’re not here to exploit. We’re not trying to charge fundis rent on their own hustle. Signing up? Absolutely free. You only pay when you get paid. A simple 10% commission, after you’ve gotten a client through SErraND. That's it. No monthly fees. No confusing premium plans. Just pure opportunity.


We See You, Hustler.


We know the informal sector isn’t “informal”, it’s just ignored. You’ve got skills. You’ve got hustle. But no logo. No website. No clout. So how do clients find you?


They don’t. Unless you’re on SErraND.


SErraND absorbs the invisible, the miscategorized, and the forgotten. It wraps them in dignity, in structure, in search engine results. We bring you online. We market you. We put your service out there like the legit business it is. You set your own prices. You call your own shots. Because here, you are the boss.


Oh, You Wanted Jobs?


Meanwhile, the government is busy promising “one million jobs by 2023.”

(...Checks calendar...)

It's 2025. Where are the jobs?


We’ll wait.


Actually, no, we won’t. SErraND has already created the model. You don’t need connections. You don’t need a business permit that costs more than your startup capital. You don’t need to bribe anyone to get listed. If you have a skill, SErraND gives you a space.

Just sign up, describe your service, set your rate, and boom, you’re in business.


Jobs don’t fall from the sky. But they can come from your phone.


The Future of Services is Digital. SErraND is Ready.


We’ve built SErraND with everything modern service delivery should have:


STK Push payments: secure, fast, and automated through our direct integration with Safaricom’s Daraja Production APIs.


Trust Score systems: providers build their reputation through real ratings and reviews.


Full accountability: everyone knows who’s doing the job and how well they’re doing it.


SEO optimization: your profile isn’t just a page, it’s a public business listing with Google reach.



You don’t have to shout on Twitter to get work. You don’t have to DM strangers on IG and pray they don’t ghost you.

Just join SErraND.


Whether you’re looking for a service or offering one, we’re here to plug you in.

SErraND is not the future. SErraND is the now.

We’re rewriting how Kenya gets work done.

We’re killing the referral roulette.

We’re creating jobs without waiting for someone in a suit to “launch” them.


Because honestly, seriously, where do you get your fundis from?


SErraND: Plug Wa Kazi.
