My name is Annette Kisia, I live in Satellite Nairobi Area. I am in a family of 6. I have reached college level of education. I have a diploma in Customer service. I do Transcription and I'm a professional transcriber who has a team of 5 workers but we work from home since I have not established an office yet. I want to purchase an office and computers to boost my business. These are links to some of the work I have done and been paid. To see more of what I do and get paid click the below links for more reference.

I am in the transcription business. I have four clients USA based and Indian Clients whom I work with. I receive daily files which I and my team work on and send them back within the required TAT. I provide good quality work that's why my client's prefer me to the competitors. The business is profitable because the work is there daily. Some of the risks I face is I have to take less work because I do not have an office to work with me and my team. I earn about $300-500 monthly. I pay my workers and have about like $150 profit.

I will use the loan to increase my ongoing transcription business. Currently I and my team work from home but I want to use this loan to set up and office and computers in order to increase my productivity because my client's have more and more work which I am not able to do in bulk because of lack of an office set up. I am kindly requesting lenders to support my purchase and help me grow my business because I also have youth groups that I support with money from my business.
