About Me

Am Yeboah Evans. Am a level 400 student at Valley View University, Techiman-Campus. Am from Kumasi but currently staying at Techiman because of school. My Dad passed away when I was 18 years, so it has always been my mother who has been taking care of me till now. She sells charcoal. Is through this business that she has managed to pay my tuition fee. Currently I sells books and pens to schools around Techiman and it's environs. I have tried to save little money from this business. I have 4 siblings, 2 boys and 2 girls. Am the oldest. Things has been very difficult since I was born till now. Is through this business that my brothers are going to school. My mom is weak now and she can't do the charcoal business anymore. I go rounds during Friday's to supply the schools books. Is my dream to expand my business to employ people and to help my brothers reach where they want to.

My Business

Am into stationery. I sell books and pens to government schools in my locality and also sends some to a village called kramokurom in the western region in Ghana. The level of education of the people living at that village is very low so, the headmasters of that schools do call me every term to supply them with reading books, exercise books and pens. I normally hire a taxi and a driver. They take me to that place. I pay him and his car 60 dollars for every two weeks. We normally spend month at that village which cost me huge amount. Because the near by stationary price is high, they prefer buying mine instead of theirs.

First I have created business for the driver because I pay him every 2 weeks.

Secondly,knowledge has been impacted into the children's brain. This business has really brought nothing but change into my life.

Loan Proposal

I will use this loan to buy more books. The price will cost me 300USD every two weeks.

I will be able to get more returns and I will be able to employ more people.

Am expecting 800USD every month. And with this I will be able to expand the work more so that more people will be employed.

    Dear learners, I am Yeboah Evans and am from Techiman in the Brong-Ahafo in Ghana. Am a proud member of zidisha. I have worked with this company for more than a year. Am a student and the same time into business. I sells exercise books and note books to a near by schools in my locality.
    For about 4 month ago, I took to myself to pay higher loan and collect small loan with the intention that my money will increase. Yes it has increased to extend that I can expand my stationary shop but, whenever I request a loan from zidisha, it's not founded.
    Now those I supply books to them are calling me but there is no money to buy more books. I have to stop the workers am working with because all the profit I got, I added it to pay high to zidisha so that I can collect higher loan.
    Getting to a month now, my stationary shop has to be close down because there is no money to run the business.
    As a member of zidisha with a Good payment record,am pleading if you can help me with the loan I applied for so that I can run my business.
    Please help me.

    Good morning learners. I hope you're doing good?. Please I have applied for loan getting to two weeks now and it has not been founded.
    Please learners, this is the time I can make more money from my loan because it's getting to Christmas.
    Please learners, do something about it for me because I need the money to invest into my business. The schools I supply the books to are calling for more books, yet the money is not ready.
    I invested all the money in the business and took to myself to pay extra money so that my loan will be increased. Now I checked my loan and it's has reduced. I amount I requested for has been reduced.
    Learners please do something about it because this is the time I can make more money because my clients are calling for more books and pens for their school but there is no money.
    Please help me.

    Dear learners thank you so much for the good work you keep on doing. I hope you're also good.
    Please yesterday I made a payment of my loan and till now I haven't received any confirmation message.
    As a member of this company, I have tried to maintain my on-time payment of 90 percent. Today I checked it and I was on 86percent. Please I don't understand, can you please explain it to me why I have been reduced to that?
    Thanks for your time. Hope to hear from you soon.

    Dear learners good morning.. Hope you're all good?. Am back from the village and my experience there was not easy when it comes to communication and internet matters. I just paid half of the remaining loan balance and am hoping to pay the rest ending of this month.
    Learners, when a loan time is due and a borrower is not making any payment, please exercise patience small because, whenever I see such messages from my learners I get scared. In the other way too, it helped me because it always tells me to work extra hard when I see such messages from my learners.
    But am much greatful and asking my learners to increase my next loan for me. I want to make difference in my family and the only way I can do that is to work hard.
    Thank you and God bless you.

    Dear learners, I thank you so much for the good work have done for me .Am very sorry for the delay in my loan payment. The reason is ,as we speak now am in a village where there is no light and no internet. You will bear with me that the loan I collected was not enough, so I had to quite school now and concentrate on my pen, pencil and exercise book business.
    Do consider my situation and maintain my on time payment mode. Am working extral hard to pay the loan before the given date,that's December 6.I have sent 500 GH CEDI's and will send the rest at appropriate time.
    Thank you and may God bless you.You will hear from me again .

    I know you will be wondering why I have not pay my past due loan. Am a village where there is no internet connection and this mobile money agents are hardly to find too. Am selling my pens and my books to the schools in this village so that I can get more money to pay my loan and my tuition fees. I just waked up this mid night so that I can get access to internet when I realized a lot of messages.
    Is not intentional,i will pay all my loan before the date giving.
    Thank you for your patience, much greatful. But I will be coming to town in two weeks time, so please do exercise patience and I promise to pay everything.

    Dear learners, am very sorry for keeping you waiting. Is not that I don't want to pay my loan but the reason is, I traveled to a village where there is no internet connection and this mobile money agents are hardly to find.
    I did this because I needed to make more money in my books and pens business, so I have defear my courses this semester due to financial problems. Am aware that am owing but am trying to get more money so that I can travel to town. But I promise to pay whenever I get the chance to come to town.
    Thanks for your patience, am much greatful.

    Hello Mr.Evans Yeboah,am very please that you have received your loan and on time payment previously but now it seems you have relaxed and i dont know the reasons why this time around you have refused to honour your on time payment.Please,am advicing you to start your payments now if you think Ghs 50 is big for you,try to adjust it by going to adjustment payment for reduced payment for you to maintain on time payment.I hope as my good mentee you will adhere to my advice.Thank you and may almighty God bless you.FROM your mentor.
