Am john maina from kiambu county in the central province of kenya ,growing up in central province mad me learn to do business at a tender age, My dad was a mechanic and a farmer my mum is a nurse and i am working as a customer service attendant at a car sale show in limuru town.
i love driving and my passion is in music system installation,i learned this skill from my dad whom used to repair cars so while i was young i used to accompany him to the garage and this where i got the skills to set a music system in cars is pretty simple and everyone can do this but it take as profession or a experienced person to do it perfectly and bring the sound out of the speakers correctly and balanced,understanding simple amplifies connection and fixing speakers is what i do perfectly.
grew up with business oriented people so i adapted this from childhood.
After college i became stranded for years and hustle became my way of life i began doing touting at limuru stage and after savings and i managed to take as course in customer service.
A friend got me a job at a car sell yard and this is where i work and get paid monthly 110USD.
i have this young brother of mine and would like to help him achieve is dreams of becoming a air hostess in future.
my business is done under the same place where am employed and what i do is to fix music system to cars
When a customer wants to sell his or her car he does some repairs and most people are attracted to cars with music so my boss gave me a chance to be doing that to clients whom are interested.
Alongside my salary of 110usd i get two to five cars in a day and charge a fee of 9 USD to install a good music system this sums to a average of 200 usd a month.
I use the money to pay for my brothers school fee and sort my basic needs like paying food,housing and clothing.
i have no typical cost because once a customer buys the system all i do is charge a service fee.
their is demand in this business especial to youths whom buy olskol cars and wants the music system loud.
if i get this loan i would use it to buy speakers at 60usd and connection wires at 40usd
this will enable me sale and make profits as i would be paid the service fee plus the money i would get from selling the speakers.
in future when i am done with paying my brothers fees i would also save enough so to start a small workshop for music system installation.
thank you .
