About Me

Kelvin Asante is my name and I come from Akwatia in the Eastern region . I am a computer repairer and also a graduate from the IPMC that trains young boys and girls in ICT , Hardware and Soft Skills.
I took to this business base on the experience I had back in the training from IPMC. Today this field has help me gradually, in making my own ends meet. After expanding my knowledge in this field of study I also spend considerably time in repairing peoples laptops and proving certain computer accessories.
Through all these activities my father decided to give me his garage for me to master my talents and showcase these to the world. And here I am today, I am happy to actually used the experience garnered from school and making some source of income out from it.

My Business

The computer repairs business is good most especially when one is able to combine some of the sale of the computer accessories with the services delivering. Normally, what I do is that I buy some of the computer accessories parts, and many needed equipment items for sale and for my work. Through this concerted efforts I have been able to raise my turnover from 3% in last 2 years to about 47% in this year making that as a significant improvement over these years. this means that the future prospect of my business is bright and I also hope to see my self become one of the renowned developers like Bill gates, Paul Graham etc.
After obtaining my first loan i was able to search for a place in town to set up a mini office in order to accommodate my clients as and when they turn in for my service.
This idea came because i wanted to move from my fathers garage and make my new place a permanent place to receive clients, and this has still being in underway.
i direly need your support.

Loan Proposal

I quite remember very well when I used to operate from my father's garage back in home whilst still keeping contact with my customers.
Courtesy Zidisha and our lovely lenders I was able to secure a loan and that really helped me to rent a shop in town, improving my business now and expanding my cashflow.

Current the technical error which
affected the website barely 20 working days really affected me in adverse way by affecting my liquidity profile. This had lock up inventory I intended to procure. But I pray my lenders will kindly assist me to catch up in the market through their lending support.

I have the desire of applying for a third loan to enable me obtain this inventories for resale.
As of today I wish to add up more TV decoders and some phone accessories into my shop and humbly wish if my lenders will support me in this regard.
The cost breakdown :
4 piece of TV set decoders = 160 USD
Phone accessories = 48 USD
This I strongly hope will inch progress in my dreams. Thank you all.
