About Me
Am Jonah Se-rem a father of one boy and a lover of music, i was born and raised in Eldoret to a family of peasant farmers, My childhood was full of mixed challenges with prayers and help from relatives i manged to complete my education, i studied at uasin gishu primary and high school, i schooled at Eldoret polytechnic with a diploma in music production.
After school i did not like staying home idle i tried to search for a job but i did not get a chance, i tarmacked for several months until one day i got a space in a friends music shop to work as a assistant in selling music Cd's.
I later managed to save money and started my own shop in a different position in town, I now sell music Cd's and i focus on gospel music because it has a better profit.
Most people in my community focus on farming due to plenty of land.
My hobbies are fishing and pets.
My Business
I buy and sell music disks, i buy from local artist and sell in my store and a times i sell walking on the streets in order to advertise and make more sales.
i buy a single disk at 50 KS and sell at 100 KS making a profit of 50 KS from every disk.
I sell an average of 15 disk a day and make a profit of 750 ks a day which i save for rent use for food and family upkeep.
Loan Proposal
Once i receive the loan of 35 us dollars after membership fees deduction i will add to my savings make it amount to 200 us dollars and purchase a laptop.
This machine i will use to find out which music is latest and keep records of my business.
I believe i will be in a position to serve my customers better than before and increase my sales.
