am mother of 3 children being a widow after i lost my husband through accident in 2015 September leaving behind three children of 7,10 and 15 years.am a hardworking women which has helped me to start my own business that could enable me to provide for my family and through my church support i was able to open a saloon in which i sell cosmetic products too.despite the hardship i come across am now able to provide for my family needs through my business.now i hope to expand my business with the support of zidisha so that i can easily provide for my family need.i like listening to gospel music and wish all the best for my children as i encourage them to work hard in their education for them to succeed in life.
i have a saloon in which i sell cosmetics products too for the ladies.i provide beauty services at reliable price for my customers compared to other saloons and this has made me to attract more customers.i chose this business since i had attended a beauty college and i had enough skills and knowledge in this field. i use about $50 in a good week to add stock in my business which returns me a profit of over 40% which i use to pay rents,school fees,expanding my business and home improvements.
my first loan has helped my business to grow and attract more customers especially on weekend that has made me to use my second loan in investing even more to ear more profit. i will buy braid for my saloon which are currently in order and demand from my customers.this will boost my business and help me earn more profit that i will be able to pay for my children school fees,rents and expand my business.
