Mavimose is a 36-year-old Haitian national with 4 children who use her phone to attend a virtual school. The family sells sweet potatoes, yucca and roasted vegetables in their community. Mavimose graduated from high school and her children are studying. The 17 year old daughter is the one who has taken the most classes on the app.

Because of this, we interviewed both the mother and the eldest daughter.

Here is the daughter’s testimony:
“My favorite course is the Business Guide and my favorite lesson is The image of the business and the 3Cs: Quality, Quantity, Customer.

The application has helped us all a lot as a family. We learned in the course how important the appearance of our business and products is. Before taking the course, we left the grilled sweet potato on a table for customers to buy, but there were always a lot of flies. After taking the lesson, we had an idea. Now we keep the food on the grill above the oven, where it is hot and flies do not land on the food.

The lesson on personal hygiene and business hygiene is also very valuable to us. As I mentioned, it is relevant that the company is well organized.

I took the course Supporting My Child at Home and realized the importance of teaching children when they are at home, especially math. Before taking the class, I used beans and corn to help my younger siblings learn to count. Now I have new ideas, how to use beans to teach them to add! I realized how important it is for me to teach my siblings at home”.

Mother’s testimony:
“The application has helped me a lot with the business organization, since for that you have to have a change of mentality. My children see that I am more motivated, and they are motivated and happy. They pay special attention to our clients.
I would recommend the app to my neighbors. Before taking classes, we were simply satisfied with how much we were or were not selling, and we didn’t know what to do with all the flies on our sweet potatoes. Now we are much happier. We notice that our customers do not have a disgusted face when they come to buy from us, because there are no flies! The app has changed my life positively.

I sell yucca and roasted sweet potato, and my children and husband help me. Cassava is very good and people stop and buy it without problems, but a situation was arising with the sweet potato, and it is that it is very sweet and this causes many flies to arrive. This is why people did not want to buy it, and that was generating losses for me. When I started with the Business Guide course I saw all that content on how to better organize the business and on hygiene and the techniques they give, I loved it. Now I put the sweet potato on display on top of a large oven that is also a table and since it is hot the flies do not come, and now I sell more.

The application is helping me a lot in the organization of my business, in a change of mentality.
My children, when they observe me more motivated, they are also motivated and happy and very attentive to the people who stop to buy.

If my neighbor asks me about the application, I would tell her that I recommend it. Before the application we had to conform to what was sold, and we did not know what to do with so many flies. Now we are happier and without seeing the bad face of those who were going to buy for so many flies. Without a doubt, the application has changed my life in a very positive way”.
