About Me

My names are Martha Etyang , I am the second born in our family,I went to school up to form three and dropped due to lack of school fees.I then joined Matoyos polytechnic to study cloth making and design after getting sponsorship from a non governmental organization. i completed the training after two years and got a job a n assistant in a my mums fiends shops. However I had to work for long hours with little pay. I endured the hardship but my goal was to save enough money to start my own business. Because my work was excellent a client who had became a good friend offered me a loan of $200 and I added my $150 saving to open my own shop. I had many clients who preferred my job and the business picked up instantly. I was able to repay the loan and I am now expanding the business.
i have twins jack and jacob they are 2 years old.
My hobbies include,making new friends,reading novels ,singing and adventuring.

My Business

I design and make new dresses for my clients according to there tastes and preferences. I always adhere to clients instructions so that I give them exactly what the want.
Most people prefer wearing latest designs in the market made to meet their own tastes and preference and that's why the demand is high.
I spend $400 on fabric,electricity and paying once assistant ,I get about $700 in revenues per month.In a good month I make profits of $300. I use my profits in taking care of my twins,babies,paying fees for siblings ,helping my parents and donating $10 monthly to our church children home.

Loan Proposal

Hello lenders,I am kindly requesting for a second loan to help me buy a sewing machine so that I can employ an assistant . These is due to higher demand for my services due to good quality work. The new sewing machine will help create employment,increase my revenues and make my business more efficient in terms of timely delivery. The machine will cost me $300 and I would use my savings to boost to add to the loan so as to get the machine.Thank you
