Hello good people,I am Ceciliah Bhoke. Having completed O Level education, I joined a fine art institution to study Graphics Design. I am 25 years old. I am talented in graphic designing, painting and screen printing and as much as I don’t have a lot but I offer my skills in mentorship programmes to my fellow youths. I train them to design business cards, brochures, diaries, complimentary slips and burial programmes, also wedding cards.
I started as a freelance graphics designer appealing slowly while in college so as to support my siblings since i am the first born in a family of six and we have been brought up by my mom only. Through my business i have been able to support my siblings financially for their school fees and upkeep, thus i have been able to train them on the business.
I will be able to pay the loan offered to me from my design business.
I design creatively inspiring visuals for graphic design. I work from home and sometimes i am forced to go to the cyber cafe in town to use their facilities. and I produce quality thus I always get referrals. The design work rewards me with $ 250 monthly which i use for home improvement and part of the money i use for upkeep and food. I also support my siblings and above all, i pay a tenth of it as tithe to my local church.
I realized I get so much work sometimes that it is overwhelming that I have to outsource from designers with facilities to do it.
At the moment, I am mentoring my two siblings who have finished their O Levels and they have positive attitude towards graphic design.
I really enjoy doing graphics and since I have trained and mentored my brothers , I am sure my sales will tremendously increase thus I will be able to service the loan.
With the loan, I will buy more equipments i.e
A laptop worth $ 150 which i can use to design more work as it is portable and it aint as a desktop when there is no power it will mean that i will not be able to deliver the artworks on time.
I have small shop of printing, typesetting and photocopying which is located at CBD town. I am in a strategic place and i realized customers are asking for digital printing other than the usual printing. The venture is located at a strategic place and i have been serving quite a good number of customers for that short period that i have been operating it. It is located near an ART & Design School college and this has been advantageous to me since most of the students serve as my customers for printing of their project works and assignments. Since the business is growing at a faster rate, i would like to expand it by buying a bigger printing machine which will cater for a bigger number of customers and this will increase my profit. I am so proud of ZIDISHA FAMILY AND I WOULD LIKE THEM TO WALK WITH ME IN THIS JOURNEY ONCE MORE.I hereby request financial support from Zidisha team to fund my business and agree to comply with the Zidisha terms and conditions regarding the payment of their loans.
Loan Proposal.
Hello zidisha, i hereby apply for a loan of the amount mentioned above to expand my business. I really need a Digital Printing Machine called KONICA MINOLITA BIZHUB for my business so that i can be able to serve my customers in a more efficient manner. The current printing machines that I am using are a bit slow and this calls for a more advanced machine that will serve the customers in a faster way. I am hopeful that my request will be responded to in a positive way and i will appreciate the support of zidisha lenders. T he money will be of great help in buying an advanced printing machine for my business. I promise to honor my weekly installments if the loan will be granted to me. Thank you in advance for the support of zidisha lenders. The money will be of great help in buying an advanced printing machine for my business. I promise to honor my weekly installments if the loan will be granted to me. Thank you in advance and God Bless you.
