About Me

MYSELF
My name is Agyapong Boakye Emmanuel from Berekum in the Brong Ahafo region of Ghana. My parents are Mr. Samuel Atta Boakye and Mrs. Rebecca Boakye. I am married to Ophelia Amponsah Dankwah with two kids.
Moreover, I started my elementary school at Methodist after successful completion to Presbyterian Senior High School. After completion, I went on to pursue Diploma in Education at the Offinso College of Education. I was employed by the Ghana Education Service (GES) as a professional teacher after obtaining my Diploma in Education. I started another studies with University of Education Winneba by distance learning and now had my Degree in Education. Currently, I am teaching at BESS Junior High School Berekum.
MY HOBBIES
My hobbies are; reading news from online, playing computer games , watching football match and making friends all over the world

My Business

PRINTING PRESS BUSINESS
Whiles I was still in school studying to become a professional teacher I was still having at the back of my mind to establish my own business. I was business minded, so right after my completion in the year 2009, I devoted part of my time after teaching to learn how to operate a printing press business. Thanks to” Headband’s Computers and Printing Press” they gradually equip me for this business.
Moreover, in the year 2011, I was graduated to start my own printing press known as “True Light Printing Press”. Looking at the situation at hand, it is a must we have this business in my town. There are a lot of Schools, Businesses and other Organization that need these services badly. They are really finding it difficult to type and print their work. Aside that there are unemployed people in the town who can get the chance to work and at the same time learn how to operate this business. Having this in mind and many other things is the main cause of the establishment of the printing press. I am now having four (4) apprentices and three (3) full time workers. Some of the services we offer include: Typesetting, Lamination, Posters, Invitation cards, Scanning, Photocopying, Books printing, Calendar making, Printing of passport pictures. I am able to purchase many of the necessary machines needed for these services with a loan I got from Ghana Commercial Bank. There are still more that I can do to enhance my business and also make it continue to stand unique among the rest. I will rest here and plead with the entire Zidisha Lenders to support me bring out the best in me so that I can contribute my quota to the development of my community and the entire Country.


REPAYING OF LOAN
Because people are patronizing my services, I am able to make profit and can pay the loan from these profits. Aside this, I am a teacher and for that matter receives monthly salary. I will also pay using my salary. I assure you, I will pay the loan if I am granted.
Thank you.

Loan Proposal

I owe Lenders great thanks for loaning to me four (4) consecutive times. You have impacted my family, my business and my community too. I was able to use the loan you gave me wisely and for that matter have paid back successfully. I am counting on you for my fifth loan which is going to be use to purchase a brand new Electricity Generator. This has become necessary due to the power crises we are facing in Ghana for now. Productivity is getting low since we cannot work all the time. I therefore need the generator urgently to keep my Printing Press moving and also make my services available all the time. Also the store room I am operating my business has become too small to accommodate all my machines and my apprentice. I want to rent bigger store room that can take all of us so that we can work comfortably. I am going to use an amount of $1000 to buy the Electricity Generator and the rest of $1046 will be used to rent the new store room and its decoration. I promise you again I am going to pay back the loan to your satisfaction. Thank you for your continual support.

    I will like to express my sincere thanks to all my Lenders for having patience with me when the need arise for me to adjust my loan payment to such a small amount. I was not feeling comfortable with that but you understand me till now. I promise you that change is for temporal, things are better now and I want to increase my payment in order to finish paying my loan as early as possible. Dear Lenders you have been a blessing unto my life and my family. May God continue to shower his blessing upon you now and forever more. Amen.

    Thank you Lenders for your Love and care, you have really changed my life and I will always be proud of you. Thank you once again for understanding me to reduce my loan when things were hard for me to do so due to the circumstances beyond my control. By God grace business is still improving day in day out and for that matter want to increase my repayment. I still want to promise you, I am working hard to pay off this loan earlier; it will not travel more than six (6) month. I am not going to break the record I have so far as loan repayment is concern. God bless you all abundantly so that you will always have more to share with others.

    Dear Lender, I feel sorry to inform you that, due to temporal problem that I have encountered, with all respect I want to reduce the installment amount for a short period of time. My business is not down but the need arise for me to assist my junior brother who is currently learning at University of Ghana to pay his fees. I want to promise you this loan will not be paid more than 7 months; I will quickly reschedule it back and pay it as early as possible. I thank you for your understanding.

        Hello Laurie,
        I am doing great and hope you are doing as well with the rest of your family. Unfortunately, borrowers do not have follow up button on our dashboard unlike the Lenders. I was following you from some of my mentees dashboard. You were communicating more frequently with them especially Richard Boateng. He also alerts me you have been following his business and you’re so good to him. So that was where I get to know you until you communicated with me on my wall. I know you are new here as your were telling me but can assure you, all your post and communications are in line with the terms and condition of Zidisha. I feel happy always to meet you. Keep up the good work and God bless you!

  • Emmanuel    Apr 6, 2015

    Dear Lenders, I am glad to announce to you that I have received the loan.
    The total amount was $2046, the same amount that you lend to me. I thank you once again and the entire Zidisha staff.

    I owe Lenders great thanks for loaning to me whenever the need arises. You have truly shown me love which surpasses my understanding. I will forever be proud of you not only because you funded my loan, but all eyes have seen your good works, how you are impacting lives and businesses. We appreciate it very much. I cannot in any way neglect Zidisha management for creating a platform to link Borrowers and Lenders. I pray for you to always experience divine health and received in multiples what you are sowing to us. I promise to pay my loan to your satisfaction. Always stay blessed.
