Wow!! it has been 4 weeks of progress for my fuel saver business.. I am getting customers mostly through referrals and the progress is amazing. I bought more fuel saver inventory from the zidisha loan, and my first orders came through after giving out samples to key people. I am now seeing profits of 30$ to 50$ per week and reivesting most of it in marketing and sampling.. I am not just growing financially but also my personal development is increasing and business skills. I am on the road to receive a bigger loan through zidisha. Thanks zidisha

Once again i say thank you for your usual cooperation.

Thanks to all my lenders. I have just completed payment for my most recent loan. Interestingly I had projected to pay it for a long time but some of my chicken that were not laying eggs started laying. From the additional egg sales, I succeeded to clear the loan in a shorter period.

let me take this opportunity to thank the zidisha team that is tirelessly putting a smile on my face. Thank you so much . As I had stated earlier in my applications, I intent to use this money to buy a potato peeling machine. So far I have managed to save some little money , which I will add to this loan. This machine will make my job faster and save time , reducing the cost of production as well so i will spend most of my time on sales which I anticipate that will double my earnings by 50%. Ones more thank you so much Zidisha.

I used the last loan to buy a photo printing machine which is now operating well. Now I want to extend my business,I have been constructing an iron sheet walls construction which will finally cost 80,000. I have already built the best part of it which costed Ksh 50,000 after which I stopped due to lack of money. What remains is the roofing,painting and the floor. This building will cost me 4000 less than what a rented building could cost. I am planning to extend my computer services businesses to that corner of the town. In this place hope after five months time it will increase my net income by 15000 per month and put me in a position that I will be able to employ one more person who will earn her living there. By the time being I will be paying my loan with the already established photo studio. comment image
