About Me

My names are Anne Wambui Njoroge.I`m a mother of three kids(two boys and one girl) and I`m married Iam married in Agikuyu customary marriage.Our first born is a boy who is in the eighth class in the private school within the nakuru municipality.The second still in the same school in class five,and our last born is in Kindergarten in top class.God will early next year she will be going in class one.We leave in the outscarts of Nakuru County headquaters,in Nakuru North District,in a village known as Mawanga.

My Business

My Salon business is strategically located at the heart of Mawanga Shopping Centre,along Nakuru-Murunyu road.At my Salon business you can get services like,hair braiding,hair straightening,massage weaving,curl-kit,manicure &pedicure,perfumes and colognes among ather services.I started the salon business after getting some money from my former job,where i worked on commission basis.In 31/04/2010, i managed to secure a loan of ksh.120,000 from Emmanuel Vision Self Help Group,which i repaid it fully by the year 30/03/2011.The loan was for a period of 12 months. My salon business sometimes faces some financial challenges and that includes,sometimes a customer may want the services and the products in large quantity which to me becomes imposible due to lack of enough cash to finance.secondly a customer may demand me to cut for a percentage as it appears in other bigger salons of which sometimes becomes very difficult to me as i dont have enough stock to offer at that rate.
The prevous sales of the month is as follows:
sales from the services ksh.24,0000
sales from hair & beauty products ksh.25,750
sales from perfumes & cologne ksh18,000
Total ksh.67,750

The total deductions of the month were as follows:
Business rent=ksh.6,000
stock additions=ksh.25,000
Electricity bill=ksh.2,300
Miscellinious=ksh3,000
wages for one(1) lady=12,000
Total=ksh.48,300

Net profit=ksh.19,450
Once the Zidisha team entrust me with the loan, i will be able to offer good services to my customers and selling perfumes and colognes in bulky,
Through the Zidisha loan, i will be able to buy 2 more hair drier machines,4 more blow drier machines bulky perfumes and colognes , 6 more chairs and add more stock for my customers which i will eventually be getting more customers and profits, thus making sure that i remit the monthly payments on time .Thanks

Loan Proposal

Thank you so much all the Zidisha Microfinance for the financial support you rendered to my business.For this second loan,I am planning to extend my business by buying additional hair drier and 4 more blow-driers then ,open a new salon branch in a nearby shopping center.I welcome all well wishers\bidders for bidding my second loan.Thank you so much and long live Zidisha organization.Welcome.

    Hello Lenders,
    I have already called Anne and she has promised to resume her payments. Actually she promised to do it from last night and hopefully she has already done it but the payment is yet to be updated.

    I would wish to be paying at least a minimum of kshs.100 shillings for the time being.This has being caused by the renewal of my business permit and since it is a return to school month,the business is somehow slow.I am kindly pleading for the inconveniences caused .Thank you

    Dear Anne,
    That's wonderful news from you!
    It is good news when your business no longer needs loan capital to operate successfully.
    I am surprised that you rescheduled your 24-month loan for 3 months!

    I wish you continued success in all things.

    Hello Kilmeny,it's great to have you as part of my business partner.The most customers within this Mawanga City always come for the Weaving,retouching, Braiding,Curl-kitting among other services.Those are the most popular hair styles most of my clients come for in my Salon.Otherwise how is going in that other part of the Continent?Have a splendid day ahead.God bless you.

      Good morning. Today in Winnipeg (which is in the central plains region of Canada) it is snowing! Right now the temperture is just about 0 Celcius. It will probably not get any warmer until next year. But that is okay with us - we are used to it and actually it would be really strange for us if there was no snow during the upcomming holiday season. We are now busy following our ice hockey team - who won their game last night, very exciting since they are really not very good compared to the other teams in the league. It is too expensive for most people to go see them live, so I follow them over the radio.

      It has been a good week for me, and I hope that it has also been a good week for you. Please enjoy the weekend.

    Hallo all the zidisha microfinance,and all the lenders,It is another beautiful day here in Nakuru County,Kenya and the salon looks to be more busier than before,as per how the clients are coming for the services.I have decided to reschedule my monthly payments from next month.The reason is that most of the customers who had been given the services from my salon are coming each new day and they are paying as per the services offered to them.Thank you in advance.

      Hello - I'm glad to learn that your salon is starting to get more customers and look forward to your repayment late this month. I am wondering what is your most popular service?

    Good afternoon all my worthy Zidisha staffs,all the lenders aboard.It is a good day in deed here in Nakuru County.The day looks promising and it is very sunny today.For several days,i have not talked to you my worthy friends.There has been so many movements here and there which has caused me not to be communicating to you oftenly.
    Now i am back and that is why i am communicating to you today.Actually my salon is still running as usual,although the business is not performing to my expectations.Most of the clients are not coming for the services,of which some are saying that the month is at the corner.I am hoping before the week ends,they will coming for the services.I am guessing that they had refused to come because i was not around,since i had traveled at my parents farm,in Muran'ga.Since my Grandmother was not feeling good.I am looking forward in the next few days remaining to pay back my first installment.Thank you and have a Good Day.Anne.

      I am happy to hear that you are doing OK. I understand that your business could be doing better, but as the saying goes, "That's business." I hope things pick up for you soon now that you are back.
      Best wishes to you and your family (especially your grandmother).

      Hello Mrs. Wambui - I hope you had a good weekend. Do you do more buisness on weekdays or on the weekends? I have updated my photo so that you can see my "new look"! Before it was a photo of me this past winter. Unfortunately, today is quite cool here (about 10 Celcius this morning) so soon winter will be back!

    Hello Mrs. Wambui Njoroge - I am happy that your loan has been fully funded, and that I was able to contribute a little bit. I am in Winnipeg, Canada - this weekend has been hot, with one rainstorm last evening. Because it is so hot, I have been thinking of getting my hair trimmed soon, I don't like having the back of my neck all sweaty, so I tend to wear my hair quite short in the summer. I think it is more usual for women in Kenya to have longer hair, but maybe I am wrong? I look forward to reading of your progress as you expand you salon!
