Purpose of loan:
Full time computer support/ service technician that is self-employed
I am trying to grow and expand a small side-job that I have into something of a business , with hopes of one day quiting my day job and fixing computers full-time. I specialize in customer support, basically answering and fixing computer issues on site within clients home. I also perform installs and upgrades of personal computer systems per customer need.  I have setup home networks within clients homes as well.

Grow hobby into business, computer help/ repair .This loan would allow me invest in hardware inventory as well as allow me to purchase current tools for use in the field.  I would also use some of the money to invest in testing equipment so that I would have the ability to take computers to my home to repair as I have time. This would include a testing on a electrical testing bench, various computer systems and upgraded internet connection (aka no dial-up!).

My financial situation:
I am a great candidate for this loan due to many factors. The loan would help me to immediately fund my operations, thus allowing me to accept more jobs/clients. With this cash flow as well as my current full-time income, this loan would be paid off in two years, most likely 1 if not sooner. I have not gone through a bank, as I've had to hassle with them to get to consider this  a small business loan, plus the paperwork involved was daunting.

I have a great credit history and have always paid all bills on time. The few personal loans I've taken out over small the years were always paid back in a few months. I basically need a bit more operating cash for  things can take root and grow!
