About Me

Am a self driven person, I don't go with the flow.My childhood was one based on total adventure , i loved doing house chores helping out my mother as i grew up, and this has really made it easy for me to adopt in this business, because i do not need special training. My hardship as i was growing up was that i came from a middle class family, where everything did not come in a silver platter, and u really had to work hard to make your place in the society. I started my business as a side hustle , because i identified the need first at my work place, that earned me my previous employer as my first customer. In Kenya people are hard and smart workers, for instance i saw the opportunity and i grabbed it. I would love for my children to be creative and innovative in their own way, be their own employers, look for new avenues in which they can venture more into business rather than be employed. As a hobby i love doing makeup, beatification, and that is why as a side hustle i supply beauty products. I do cleaning services for offices on a service call basis and on the side i have decided to distribute beauty products as a side hustle to help improve on my finances.. I need help with my finances for this business to expand and support my staff.

My Business

Currently i do office cleaning as my main business and beauty products as a side hustle.. I do clean up services for high end offices at a quarterly basis. This is a working environment and it is due to get dirty most of the time, though this offices invest in vacuum cleaners and other small equipment including personnel to do a daily cleaning, it is important that once in a month or quarterly they do an over howl i.e though rough cleaning, as i mentioned before this is what i enjoyed doing throughout my childhood so for me rather than being a task, it is a hobby.My revenues and costs are based on the months job making payments and wages for the casuals bit challenging because of cash flow issues being a fairly new business, i do not have plenty of customers i am still working on that, the cash i make currently is barely enough for my daily upkeep and for paying wages.I would like to partner with you as my financier to enable me take care of my growth.

Loan Proposal

This loan will help me ensure that i get more labourers to work with me and ensure that we cover more space, and more work and delivery is done on time. it will ensure more efficiency in the work done, enabling us get more clients and advertise more through mouth to mouth.

    The previous loan given was used to help fund the business, which later brought in more jobs for the business.
