James & Mercy Beauty Salon
James currently works as a taxi driver, while his wife, Mercy, stays home to care for their two children who are six and four years old. James and Mercy have high expectations for their children’s education so that they are able to find a stable job and live a happy life.
Although James has a job, his income is extremely economy dependent which doesn’t ensure enough financial stability to support his children’s educational expenses. To better support their family, James and Mercy plan on opening a salon business that will offer nails, makeup, and hair services. Right now, Mercy and James are in need of a mentor that will guide them on how to be successful business owners. James and Mercy also need financial support to cover the costs for things like capital purchases (one time) and operational expenses (on-going) such as rent and utilities or replacement supplies.
By running a successful business, James and Mercy will be able to provide their children with a proper education and a stress-free future.
