Loan Proposal
I do intent to use the loan granted to purchase new machines to help open extra workstations at my work place.this will help increase the customer throughput at my work place.
My customer,by virtue of my good services are many and at times i may have a booking that leaves my fellow workers very tired at the end of the day,while at times some clients are not attended to due to time constraints.
Adding extra workstations will afford us more slots to service our clients,as well as afford us extra space to introduce new services.
The machines i do intent to purchase are ;
Hair driers
Tongs
towels
Blow driers
Foot massage machines
