– Telema Vea of Euless, TX
“[The course] gives you hints…for a work assignment every week. Like, it’s actually good to ask your customers what they like and find out…well, maybe I should be adding this to my stuff. So my business is getting better…it’s actually been helpful.”
– Lee Ann Folau of Euless, TX
“This course has helped me be able to have more confidence. I do have a business and it’s just a home based business, but this class has given me more of a better understanding of how I can utilize some of the skills and things that I have which are the gifts that I feel Heavenly Father has blessed me with to utilize in my business.”
– Sela Va’enuku of Euless, TX
“It helped me to talk to more people and understand the importance of communication…and trying to sell my product. People don’t want to buy a product unless they really understand what it is and the benefit it is going to have for them. Since then my sales have increased.”
– Semisi Katoa of Euless, TX
