Hi Kelvin,

How is your business going? I see your loan is nearing its full repayment dates.

Will you be able to pay back the loan on time?


Regards

Jason

Dear Mr Savala

Can you please provide some update regarding Mrs Hannah Wangari's business, and if/when she might be able to make some repayments?

Many thanks.

Dear lenders and other friends,
It’s yet another time to comment on my progress with my business. So far I have been doing well. The Month of August was a busy and good one for me in business , am hopefully the same will happen to me this month of September. The ever present of my services as a cyber café service provider , I have observed some trends , which I must try to capture in order to attract more customers to my business.
One of this trend / thing I must change , is to do with space , most of the cyber cafés in town , lack enough space , hence customers sit tight and uncomfortable in order to browse. The same applies to my cyber café. There are new buildings which are coming up. Hopefully, I intend to get one which is spacious so that I can get more room. The second issue is to do with the chairs, which my customers are using; I find them a bit uncomfortable. If one sits on them for more than one hour, they become very uncomfortable. I intend to purchase better and more comfortable chairs, so that I can attract more customers.
Other additional improvement to my business include, to let those you are using laptops, to be able to access the net, by providing some empty tables and chairs , and also having extra net connected cables. I have observed of late that, many people insist that, they want to use their laptop. Most of the cyber cafes in town do not provide this service.
Last but not least, the mouse and keyboards which am using sometime can become very cumbersome. I intend to get better, technologically latest good mouse and keyboards to enable my customers to enjoy my services at all times they visit my cyber café.

Nakuru town has many Cyber Cafes , but most of them , do not offer good services due to low speed , and dirty/poor environment(rooms). I want to change all that , by providing high speed internet connectivity and a clean environment. Spacing is also an issue , I need to provide a spacious place for my customers to surf the net .
it is now two weeks since I got your loan, the business is doing well and hopefully, I hope things will work well. Initial, Initially, I was apprehensive on the way the business would go, but thank God, it has started picking up well.
This time of the month is always a busy one. The month of August sees schools closing and the beginning of the school holiday.

What is important i believe is to plan and do all the necessary survey in order for whatever product you intend to introduce to the market does not make a lose. I have surveyed the market and i believe this a great area to invest. Cyber Café is a competitive business and you must always be on top of the other competitors in order to succeed.
Cyber Café , is not an expensive business to run , though ,initial capital is heavy, you need to have enough cash at hand in order to make it. The other issue is there no many fast speed internet cyber Cafes in town, I intend to make my caber café one of the fastest in town , so that I can attract many customers.
Business is such an interesting area , especially if you have the right skills and experience . i have been running this business for the last one year , and i can see myself now taking off. With the help of Zidisha Organization and the good people the lenders; I see my self going well in this business.

It has been a week since i was advanced the loan from Zidisha organization. The organization which i will always thank and talk of among my friends and business associates. The business has been going on well. I was able to buy a new server . It is more faster and am able to multitask without the computer hanging. I do a lot of designing using a heavy programme that is coral , this one needs a faster computer machine. As a server , it is the main computer in my cyber cafe , so as it is very fast am very happy to say that am able to work without any problem.
Two things happened in Nakuru town this past week . One, there was a big crusade my Dr. Awuor , this is a renown evangelical pastor . Over one million people visited this town. The business was very good.I welcomed so many people in my cyber that , i thank God for it.
The second thing which happened in the town , was a National music festival .Which was being held in town. This also added more people in the town. This two events made the town so busy, and for us , it was harvesting time.
The business got the best boost as the loan come in handy . It made my cyber a bee hive of activity for this weekend . I am hoping a lot will still be coming my way as the year advances. As i have now a more steady source of loaning facility i.e Zidisha Organization , i am now ready to start planning my business finances . On how i intend to repay the and also on what i will use the next loan for .
Bravo Zidisha Organization and Bravo for the brain behind this organization. I feel already the sky is the limit. Long live all those who make this organization function well.
