About Me

I was born and brought up within the nyeri vicinity and my education started at Village level up college level where i did an marketing and sales certificate course .
Due to lack of employment opportunities readily available i decided to start an Enterprise of stationery buying and selling. I am also a market products of cosmetics company where i receive commission on promotion and improving sales in our region
I have now changed to a saloon business venturing well.
Best regards

My Business

I Normally deal with saloon work for now and cosmetics and more to that am in Agribusiness to cater for the Family . Previously I have been dealing with stationery work on distribution of exam materials due to covid 19 so many schools and associates in religion closed down their businesses and I was forced to stay at home. Previously I had gone to Hair dressing and beauty college so I thought of utilizing my skills learnt in school and opened up a saloon business and got support from family members with initial start up Machines and I was ready to go. The business have ventured a number of customers . those customers needs some Services which I have skills but I don’t have the Equipment which if funded they will cater up to at least 70% of the customers needs. The initial cost to buy items will be 65% purchase price on the base limit of service will be 15 % per every customer therefore I will realize the initial cost minimal margin if I get 5 customers [75%] therefore when I deduct my expense on feeding family. I also save for my daughter schooling and clothing.
Best regards

    Thank you Zidisha team and the financial supporters for covering my business needs , you acted with quick response speed and and you gave me a big boost to my business for such uplifting . I purchased beauty salon wings and weaves and serviced machines and renovated the saloon uplifting the clients satisfaction. All i spent was $68 all together , this has changed my business to addition customers with a collection that have pushed my business to stand still for the pick period coming from November to December This enabled me to pay for school fees that was $20 and still hope to clear my Balances as the schooling is proceeding. i appreciate zidisha and in coming projects hope u will support me to keep my saloon moving.
