About Me

My name is Mike Boateng from Techiman. Married with 3 boys. Self employed and other Union and Association works as well on the side. I live with my family in Techiman and also travel to Accra, Kumasi and other places to sell and to buy items as well.

My Business

Previously I was in water supply business, which was working for me, I thought, and then my pump started to give problems. I decided to leave that business for a new one introduced to me by a friend. I gave my premises out for rent and I used this rent money as my startup capital for this new business.

Loan Proposal

I will be purchasing more stock for my sales and also will add more of the interested consumer goods so to bring in more customers, considering the need for the people in my community now in this corona era.

Income Source

I do not have lockdown at my working place and right now, as it is, many people are buying more food for storage, so my idea is to take more of gari and rice as part of my stock for this era so to help my community and also to be able to sell faster in addition of my stationery goods.
I believe that this will help my community and also my business.

    I really did not want this to happen to me at all. Schedule and rescheduled were not what I wanted. I am really trying very hard to finish my repayments so to enable me to get another for my business development. I have started tracking so to enable my repayments.

    My business has really gone down this very season and I'm thinking of relocating so to help boost my sales. I'm very sorry for delaying repayment this way.

    Mike said business is very slow so he will need some time to repay pay the loan back

    It has never been my intention of late payment, the problem now is debtors are really paying but very slow in payment. It's very promising this coming week. I'll make payment and repayments on time.

    My sales have gone down, and customers are buying on credit, making repayment very hard for me. I really wanted to make it 10 weekly but the option line is not allowing me. I wish it could be so, so that weekly payment will be prompt.

    My business is very slow and down, making my customers always taking on credit payments doesn't come as expected making my repayment also very slow. I will make my payments.

    The business has gone down, and many of my customers are now buying from me on credit, that's why repayment has delayed.

    This has never been my idea for repayment. My business has gone really down these days. But with all that I can, that's why I'll do my best to increase my repayment.

    My business has gone so down and I really don't appreciate how my repayments are being made. I wish to make it the exact amount as things get a little better financially.

    Sales have been very slow, I have much stock but the rate of buying has come down to so low. That's why my repayment is not on prompt.

    I have been able to talk to Mike and he said he will talk to Mike to adjust his payment

    Considering the state of my business at this time, I would like to reduce my repayment amount to the amount that I would be able to repay on time so for if the revenue increase a bit, I will make the payment higher than this to aid me to finish my repayments on time.
    Thank you.

    I had wanted to pay the full payments as I first started, sales have been very slow after I came back. This is the main reason why i would like to reduce the repayments for now and wish to restore to the real repayments.
    Thank you.
