Hi. About the ink, noted. The ink tank (black) is now half full, this will last for a little bit longer depending on the amount of work that is to be printed and i will definitely factor in the costs when calculating my profits. 17th Jan we celebrated my daughters 2nd birthday!!

After paying for school fees, now am stress-free and embarking in business as usual. The profit increased and now I want everybody to light their houses and working areas for effective work at all times. Since I abandoned use of other power, I have never known darkness and that is why I am promoting the sale of solar-energy lamps. Here is my grocery kiosk with new stock and also it's where solar-energy lamps are now available for sale.comment image

Hi Zidisha team, I always thank you for all your time and support to me. Today I say thank you for the money you gave me, I got it and I have already put it to work. As I earlier informed you, I needed to pay school fees for my daughter. I have paid for her first-term fees from the money you gave me. The rest of the money I put into my business and am introducing selling solar-energy lamps. I am showing you the lamps in the pictures I took. These lamps are cost-effective. I have used them in my kiosk for almost two years and most people admire them so much, hence I decided to bring these to them. Since other power source proved unreliable due to fluctuations time and time again.comment image

I take this opportunity to thank my lenders for the previous loan, indeed i was a huge blessing to me and my family, i bought a substantial amount of school books and inventory of pens and pencils for distribution to my customers.The bulk items enabled me to distribute the items with so much ease since i only made purchases twice a week and i had so much time to attend to my customers, and therefore leading to more sales,thank you so much zidisha and my lenders i appreciate you big time. The christmas and new year holidays were awesome ,am looking forward to this new year with great expectations, thank you so much.

Hello Ezekiel, Happy New Year! How is the business? I have a crazy idea. Maybe some of your lenders would like to buy your CD and hear your music. There is some discussion on the forum about selling music. Maybe post a question at a forum.
