About Me

Asiedu Brony Francis is my name and I was born and had live most of my life as an orphan from the age of eight (8). It was tough for me as I live with my grandmother afterwards and that's when the struggle to survive continued. I use to sell crafts made by my grandmother so as to get money to go to school and from this I got many experiences as to how to relate to people. Because I was less privileged to get money to be trained to become a computer literate, I had a friend whom I used to visit to get the basic information about computer, I became so obsessed that I even passed most of my night there. It was very important to know computing at my level

My Business

I got into setting up my own business where i sell prepaid energy(electricity) since the introduction of of prepaid meters were now what the government has instituted that we should use. I ventured into this business when I first married, and doing this job was also profit making at that time. What goes into the work is that, you purchase bulk prepaid credit like say GH 2,500.00 with 0.3% commission on any sale you make. I have 5 kids and all my profit at the end of the month has to be used to cater for these kids.

Loan Proposal

Now the purchase of the prepaid credit has increased, and its sale is done through a network software that the company has created to be used on a computer. Thus, you cant increase your sales without a computer. The first thing I need right now is a new computer which can help me increase my sales so if I am given this loan the entire $ 100.00 will be used to purchase a temporal second hand computer to assist my increase my sale and when my profit margin increases, i will then get a brand new permanent computer.
