About Me

My names are Eliud Njoroge, Kenyan citizen residing in Kiambu County at Githurai 45 Progressive. I am a family man, married to one wife and blessed with one boy. High unemployment rate in our country has forced me to venture in freelance writing. This activity has turned to be the reliable income generating activity which is able to support my family.
Besides writing, i am a die hard supporter of Manchester United. I also spend my leisure time swimming and playing my box guitar. These activities keep me going and provide satisfaction in life.

My Business

I am a committed freelance article writer for various blogs and magazines. The rising rate of internet marketing is a boost to this business since most investors need articles to market their products and services online. Currently, there is a high demand for marketing articles and customers pay well for the writing services.
I also intend to create employment opportunities to young graduates in Kenya. Through your support, i believe it will be easier to transform my business concept into reality. I anticipate high season ahead and need for more article writers in future.

Loan Proposal

I am planning to purchase a desktop computer which cost approximately $150. I already have a little amount as my saving which will boost the loan to make a purchase. This will reduce unnecessary hassle since i will be able to work from home especially in peak hours. I expect to increase my weekly earning by 25% when i will have the item. such increase will help me advance and purchase other equipments such as laptop which is more convenient due to its portability.

    Upon receiving funds, I will embark on setting up a counter in my small shop to enhance visibility of items and improve the appearance. I will engage the carpenter immediately to do the job. Thank you for making this project possible.

    Couple of years ago, I applied for funds to purchase the internet modem to support my online business then. The gadget made my work efficient since I had the reliable internet, hence enabling me work from home with ease. My earning increased rapidly to the point of having enough money to install more reliable internet in my house and living a more decent life.

    Dear Lenders,
    I am grateful for your support so far. I have managed to pay the full amount on time though with a lot of sacrifice due to low flow of work for the past few months. However, i have a great plan that i would wish you support in my next loan application. I am always grateful and your generous support will remain in my memories.

    Thank you.

    Hi Paul Buchheit,
    I really appreciate your funding. The flow of work is currently very low but i am trying my best to maintain highest repayment rate possible. I have a fantastic opportunity that i am planning to fund through the next loan. I believe you will find it interesting and extend your kind heart towards funding the business. It will be my alternative source of income especially when freelance writing fails to meet my expectations. Thanking you in advance.

    Warmest Regards,

    Njoroge

    Article writing is currently on dry season i.e. the flow of work is extremely low until mid September. This element has affected my cash flow hence need to adjust the amount payable as loan repayment. Kindly understand the situation.

I promise to retain my commitment and consistency in updating you on the progress and loan repayment. You are a wonderful partner in this business.
    God bless you abundantly.
    Cheers!
