Buy a digital camera

Entrepreneur

About Me

I am Esther Mungai, a Kenyan living in Nairobi County and a business Lady with my business located in Kiambu county. My business comprises of a cyber café where I offer internet browsing, printing, stationery and photocopy services. My previous loan granted through Zidisha helped me add another client computer to my cybercafe which has really positively impacted on my overall sales and with the profit acquired i am slowly but surely incorporating stationery to my business.

My dream is to become a successful entrepreneur, to also know that my hard work, dedication and selfless effort have touched the life of another and that the trust, support and dedication my lenders have offered have gone an extra mile to bring an indelible change to society as a whole.

To say the sky is the limit for me still feels like an understatement, i cannot stop to imagine that which would deter me from pursuing my set goals and aspirations.
I would say that the day i woke up to the realization that limitations are only imaginary, that dawn made me immensely strong and courageous. So yes, today, tomorrow and always, the sky does remain my limit!

My Business

Thanks to my great passion for computers together with the dire challenge of unemployment, i decided to venture into self employment by opening a cyber cafe. I started small with three computers while incorporating browsing with photocopy and printing to this day where i now at least have 8 client computers.
Regardless of the fact that this was a new venture, my drive for quality have always surpassed my desire to earn a profit and i was willing to compromise on making huge profits for the first few months trying to pursue quality provision . It paid up i would say, cause most of my clients come looking for me for the prime aspect of quality service.
My business also upholds great work ethics and quality customer service provision. I wake up in the morning and remind myself that my customers are my first priority and regardless of how my day begins, despite the challenges I face, I know I got to do my very best to satisfy my clients. This I believe is what sets me apart from my competitors.

My business is a rental therefore I account for rent, internet and electricity expenses by the end of the month. If granted a loan to boost my business, I believe that I will be able to put it to great use as i have an added advantage of business enterprise skills from my studies on business management and the experience I have gained so far from initiating a small business, running and managing it.

It has however not been an easy venture doing self employment, but i wouldn't prefer to have had it any other way. The obstacles and disappointments have sure surfaced, but have only managed to make me a better person.

I believe i am making an impact to society and setting brave strides for the coming generation. So for this very reason, i refuse to let anything drag me down, I don’t let past failures discourage me, I look at the bright side and the sky remains the limit!

Loan Proposal

If funded for this loan, i wish to use it to buy a digital camera for my business. With time i have spotted the business opportunity there is in offering digital photo services especially passport photo services where there is a surpassing demand.

Today with the busy demand of life, most people want a stop shop and this aspect is no different when it comes to cyber services. I normally get frustrated when clients ask for passport photo services and i cannot facilitate simply because i don't have a camera at hand. The camera costs around 13000/=

If i am able to purchase this camera, i believe this will be a great chance to help open doors to bigger opportunities, even contracts since local secondary schools require passport photos for students during admission.

Thanking my lenders in advance and truly there is nothing more beautiful than someone who goes out of their way to make life beautiful for others
God bless you Zidisha lenders and the entire Zidisha fraternity.
