My Business
I engage in writing and selling study booklets to high school students. The study materials will help them improve their studies. I chose this business since have passion in impacting on lives of others. To print one booklet will cost me upto 1.5 USD and distribution cost covers approximately 0.5 USD making total cost to be 2 dollars. I sell a copy of one booklet at a price of 3 USD each hence making profit of 1 dollar per every copy i sell. On average i get profit of 100 dollars a month. I use the profit i get to partly pay for my college fee and save some for a bigger investment.
Loan Proposal
I will use the loan given to purchase more varieties of drugs for my chemist, this will increase my profits hence increasing my savings for future investments at the same time people within my locality will have ease access to medicine without incurring much transport cost translating to a healthy community.
