My business is basically a barber shop.I augment my earnings by charging mobile phones since everyone is not connected to electricity.besides this,i also sell scratch cards. which translates to approximately 30.00 cedis per week.i chose this business because people must to shave and groom to look pleasant in their looks.they also charge their phones,when they come to do shavings .i use my earnings to fend for my family and also do support my parents since they are now aging.
I would like to further expand my business by improving the quality of the services I offer to my customers and even attract more new customers in order to further increase my income. am looking toward to buying one more kinyozi chair and a salon blow dry in order to conveniently serve my increasing number of customers.
To help me to grow my barbering business
