About Me
My name is George Macharia and I am based in Mombasa town Kenya. I run a business as a videographer where I shoot video for all occasions from social events such as weddings, birthdays and corporate events as well as doing documentaries.
I was born 36 years ago in a family of 8. I went straight to business after my secondary school.
I am married to one wife with one school going child aged 5 years. My wife helps me in running of my business as well as handing household chores.
I believe in hard work and honesty and these qualities have kept me in business for the last many years and my clients keep coming back for more orders.
My Business
I deal with shooting and editing videos. I believe I have an edge over my competitors because I have invested heavily on quality machines both for recording and editing the video clips.
I have managed to buy these equipment through savings but there is much more needed to make my business more productive. I make between $400 - $600 net profit. This amount can rise even higher if i can do value addition by buying a few more equipment like a good printer that I can use to print covers and other artwork that goes with my video production.
I currently use a third party to do the print work for me which eats on my profit margin. i will be very grateful if afforded a credit opportunity with Zidisha since getting credit locally is not easy.
Loan Proposal
If I get the $100, I will spend it as follows:
i) Two reflectors @ $20 total $40
ii) 1 video tripod stand $50
This will go a long way in boosting my business productivity and convenience.
I ask you lenders to consider my loan application and I promise to repay it as per the schedule.
