Mary
My name is Mary and I was a school administrator but due to reasons best known to the authorities, the school was closed down. My search for a new job proved futile. Then I realized my passion for bead making. Coincidentally, I saw a post by STAR Women on Instagram and decided to fill the form. Fast-forward my application was approved. Thanks to the Cash Skills Program I am now a skilled STAR Woman.
By the help of the training and coaching while on the Cash Skills Program, I can now make beaded bags of different designs. I have also acquired knowledge about how to manage my finances, design my own flyers and logo, choosing my brand colours due to the meanings attached, and selling my products worldwide using social media.
My business idea is to make and sell beaded bags, bracelets, keyrings and necklaces. I plan to use the knowledge I have gained to manage my finances, document everything about my business and advertise my business for more clients.
My few takeaways from the program is that I should be the best brand ambassador of my business, document all my expenses to track my business performance and finally make good use of social media.

My name is Dorgbetor Seraphine and I am #StarWoman.
Before I enrolled in the Cash Skills Program at STAR Women, I ran a small shop selling toiletries, but I have always dreamed of doing something more. For a long time, I wanted to learn how to make wigs, but I lacked the resources to pursue this passion. Thankfully, I got the chance to participate in this training and that was a major turning point for me.
I gained more knowledge, met new friends, and had the opportunity to learn from successful entrepreneurs. I now know how to make high-quality wigs. I have learned strategies to effectively market my products on social media platforms. I can design flyers, business cards, videos, and other promotional materials. I have chosen specific colors for my brand and can explain the reasons behind these choices. I understand how to manage my business and create a budget. I have learned how to draft a solid business plan. I’m excited to apply these skills and ready to expand my business!
With the chance to finally learn wig-making, I am eager to take my new skills to the next level. Not only have I started producing wig caps, but I am now able to design timely flyers, market my products on social media, and manage my wig startup all by myself. I decided to name my venture "Chic Wighup." I have been proudly showcasing some of my works on my WhatsApp status and I am operating from home for now but I know the future of my business is bright and promising.
I use social media platforms to promote my wigs. Please follow me and patronize my business on:
