i was born 32 years ago i am still single but looking for a peson who can complement me and the business i run.
I was raised in the rural areas, where i went for my primary school, lived with my grandma helping in minor chores, i later on moved to the city with my mother, completed my primary level and went to high school. Finished high school, got a casual employment earning kes 200 per day.
My big break came in when i heard about Kenya youth business trust where i got my first loan to start a business in Kids events planning, i paid off my loan on time and i was able to go back to College where i completed a Diploma in Business administration at Kenya Institute of Management.
My dream is to establish a steady business with branches all over Kenya, employ and train youth on enterprenuership.
My hobbies are basketball and keeping fit, i also like reading biographies of people who are self made.
My business name is Kizzy clowns entertainment, we organize Children parties and we offer bouncy castles, clowns, face painters, trampolines, magicians, puppet shows, acrobats, traditional dancers, animal mascots etc.
This is a fairly new concept in Kenya and parents are embracing the importance of fun and play for their young ones. Hotels, Schools, Places of worship, Institutions are not left behind when it comes to entertaining their customers ( Kids ) to these equipments.
Most of our monies goes to marketing, transport, stationary and wages. The reminder is reinvested back in the business, house rent & family support. A typical month will earn us about US Dollars 1,200 of which 30% will be costs.
Our company believes in service and building relationship in the long term, we take the business of fun very serious.
This loan will help me look for a suitable space / store where i can store some work equipments and where customers can visit to see the kind of work that we do.
We are constantly asked where our location is and when you have space you create more trust.
Looking for this space means that we will use the entire loan amount and some of my savings because its quite expensive. Close to $500 will be used. We hope this will go along way to gaining trust with our customers and in the long run create a relationship that is good for future business.
