About Me

My name is Susan Mwenesi and I am a writer by profession. I write for Techmoran.com and would like to have my own blog which talks about issues facing the African business woman. Through the help of Zidisha , I started my blog but I need it to go to the next level with better plug ins and aesthetics. This will make it look more respectable given that it reports on Business issues. At the moment I have a designer who is willing to help me with the design of the blog and the back end features as well. I have explained to him that it is a startup and he has agreed to start with a basic website for me.

My Business

At the moment, I source my money from the money I get from Techmoran.com. I would like to buy a domain for my blog women and business and start blogging. I expect to make profits from advertisements that will be coming in. I also expect to make money through affiliate marketing and having activities that bring the consumers of goods and manufacturers to start knowing each other.

Loan Proposal

My loan will go towards paying a designer a deposit to get started with the design of my website for my blog Women and business. He will add some back end features that will help me to reach a wider audience. The beautiful website is also supposed to attract more visitors because it will look more serious. It will help to highlight the achievements of women who are struggling to run a business and sometimes have to combine it with their regular jobs. I expect a 50% increase because it will help in its SEO and more people will be able to see.

    Thank you for the loan disbursed last time it went a long way into helping my designer who is working on my website. I am still working with him and at times we have to stop as funds get finished. We are at that point again and would like another loan to see the website up and running and finally we can go live. Any help given to me will be highly appreciated

    I am really happy to see my loan has been accepted. I am in the process of turning my blog into a website, complete with the latest features both on the back end and front end. The money will go a long way into helping with the design of these features. I thank you all my lenders for loan and for believing in my dream.

    Thanks Hans for believing in my dream and for your contribution. I will buy a domain for my new website that will make it easy for people to get my website and also lend it credibility. Thanks very much.

    Thank you very much Paul Buchheit for believing in me even though you do not know me personally. It is a long time project whose returns may not be immediate but am thankful at least I have what it takes to start the journey. I will use the money to buy a domain and start working on a website.

    Hey Craig Newmark , thanks alot for lending me the money and for believing in me even though you do not know me. Also, this is a project whose returns may not be immediate but we are looking at the long term. The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step and you have just enabled me to take the first step. Thanks you once again as I prepare to buy the domain which will make it seem like a serious venture. I will now start looking for someone to build my website for me.
