Hi, future lender, its pleasure to be in contact with you. My name is Kapambwe Kapepula and I am a 24 year old who is soon to be a Marketing Graduate from the Copperbelt University in Kitwe, Zambia. I am the last born in a family of six who is pressuring his university degree in order to booster my CV for Job applications. I originally used Zidisha back in 2018 in order boost a client's marketing appeal towards they're guitar students and through Zidisha I managed to buy guitar picks that aided a lot in the student's experience. But the business didn't grow as expected so I stopped getting loans from Zidisha.
I currently live in Kitwe, Zambia near the University campus and one of the most accessible services a person can access are the mobile money booths surrounding the area. Which is what inspired the idea to create a Mobile Money Agent network surrounding the growth of student entrepreneurship.
Aside from learning about how businesses are run, I am also a novice artist who wishes to create a media marketing company of my own.
My business involves a community of Mobile money agents that work together to fund it's members with a business plan, business startup requirements as well as management support for their business. Together with my partners we wish to build an interdependent group of mobile money agents that corporate as one large firm that distributes resources whenever an agent is in need.
Further we wish to use the mobile money business model as a saving system that allows the members of the group to focus on other businesses while their Mobile money business acts a support towards their various business ideas.
My team and I are currently working on a range of projects, including putting our developing professional talents to the test by selling a variety of online digital services on fiverr.com and extending our local companies, which include the hosting of minor video game tournaments. Finally, proceeds from all of our enterprises will be directed into the expansion of our mobile money businesses.
Greetings future lenders, the propose of the funds I am requesting is boost the presence of the video game tournaments within the campus of The Copperbelt University. Currently I run tournaments every other weekend consisting of 8 to 16 players who compete until we have a winner who is then given a percentage of the total revenue we collect from the entry tickets. Unfortunately due the recent outbreak of Covid-19 within the campus, the school has been closed for the mean time which means most of the students have returned home. Hence running the tournaments has become more difficult, which why am requesting this loan so that I can produce advisement for any students who are still around the area surrounding the campus for local play as well as a possible online tournament for students who have returned home.
