My Business

I have been in a business for a period of two and a half years. Before I decide to start a business I first lay out a research and find out the ladies tend to go to market often, man rarely. Ladies strictly stick to fashion, while men rarely do. with this research and many more i choose to stand a business of ladies in nature. (selling shoes and some clothing). My business earns an average of ksh.15000 per month and more of the amount at the end of the year IE (October, November and December). The risk that will mostly occur is that at times i do sell my goods at a hire purchase so it delay to add stock.business is the only way in Kenya.sometimes back i only relayed on employment but i find out is not lucky on me because it was on contract basis, so solution for that was to self- employment.what i do like in the business is that i will work for long hours than the Kenya recommended hours for people employed.moreover in case of emergency or an avoided circumstance i can either close my business or someone help on that.thanks alot Zidisha and Lenders.
