About Me
My name is Dickson Mintah a 28 years old married man. I started education from a very good preparatory school came out with good basic education certification results and had the opportunity to study in one of Ghana’s renowned high schools called saint thomas aquinas and offer general science. I entered in nursing college which am a professional nurse now. I studied very hard in college because I am the only sibling among my family who had the opportunity to be educated because I was brilliant in school. I even had the opportunity to travel abroad in 2012 to Sweden and studied at the Red Cross university and had the best score in global health studies among my peers in class. All my life I wanted to become a medical doctor but financial constraints became a big bad stambling block.
I am also good in barbering. Something I was doing for fun and friends in high school. And through the little money I had from work, I have been able to establish a barbering shop to help me gain more financial power to fend for my two kids and wife. I really want to get more equipments to better my shop and make it a big time one.
My Business
I am a nurse by profession and a very good and talented barber. I was advised a fellow good barber who saw my hand works and congratulated me and stressed that I should set up a shop because i cannot only depend on my professional work. I have been able to acquire land mount a shop and buy some few equipments. Lightening system here in Ghana has been somewhat up and down so when the light goes out, am not able to work so get myself a mini stand by generated would help when the power becames a problem. Profits gained would be used to further my education to become a medical doctor
Loan Proposal
the proposed money would be saved amd repaid back until i receive a loan worth 500USD just to purchase the standby generator for backup when power fluctuation becomes a problem. i believe this will increase my daily sales and moreover attract more customers to my end. and with this ideology i can boldly say that my profit percentage can raise to an extra 10% increase.
