About Me

I grew up from a very humble background and God fearing family. I went to school for both my primary and secondary school in Nairobi. And being the first born in a family of five i had to look for a business to assist our parent.
I could save part of my earnings from casual job as office messenger in industrial area which I used to opened a small cyber in our neighborhood. I only started with two computers and children could come to play games and even a few adults who had their typing work do their. This really motivated me and could enable me carter for my basic needs. I still save as I always been thinking to expand this business. Currently I have five computers and would like to increase this number as my clients have been increasing daily.

My Business

I like computers since my childhood and i knew one day i will be able to have a cyber of my own. This service is very important now that we are moving to a digital era.
I chose this kind of business because it has a many clients from typing, browsing, e-mailing among others. . Customers are away coming in and doing their stuff and during holidays children and always there. My biggest challenge is that i have only five computers which cannot serve all my customers.
Sometimes network is down and forces me to to use modem which is expensive.
My business is located near a colleges and this adds me a lot of advantage because i type their assignments and projects which add me more profit.
When i get this loan i will add more computers and improve my work station. I also tend to provide other services like scanning and photocopy to boost services offered to my clients

Loan Proposal

When i get this loan i will buy second hand computers which will cost me like $ 70 each. I will add my own savings and buy like three computers. This will bring me more profit and the customers who had been left out will have a space. I expect to get double profit which will boost my business and enable me improve my workstation and this will also improve my life because i will be able to move to a better house and therefore my family will live happy.
