Dominican, 55 years old, mother of 4 adult children. She lives with her husband and her 13-year-old granddaughter.

Sub-teacher who now sells Sheet Cakes as a side business, she graduated from college.

Her Favorite Course: Bible Verses and Doing Business As God intended.

Favorite lesson: When the person who could not read and write was duped into different deals. This emphasized to her the importance of a high-quality education.

Limiting factor for taking more courses: lack of time!

Agustina tells us:
“The application courses have helped me a lot. Before we started studying, our car was broken and there was no money to fix it. When I took the course on how to separate business money from family money, I started writing down what was coming into the business and what it was selling. I realized that I was taking money out of the business and using it for personal needs, so I stopped doing it. We were able to save money to fix the vehicle!

Now that our car works well, I applied the idea of ​​another course: I stopped renting a place to sell my Sheet Cakes and started making delivery. This saves me money (I no longer have to pay the rent), time (I only have to go out once a day) and allows me to be more efficient (I sell my cakes on sheets, then I collect the other materials I have).

I learned from the social media webinar that I could ask my son to help me with that part of the business. He helped design a beautiful photo for my business. Now, every time I am getting ready to make the delivery, I upload the photo to my social networks and my friends and clients call me to place orders. So we sell more!

In addition, the Business Hygiene course was very important to me. Before, I didn’t wear a hairnet or gloves when selling, now I always wear both during my delivery.

I will always continue to take the courses and encourage my granddaughter to take them as well (she began to learn to read and write). I even take classes again to earn all the stars!”.
