part 2 of the Afrikhono course

First of all you need to read my blog further down about the Afrikhono course.

Now the students have completed the course they need to learn how to sell their products in order to create sustainable self employment. Tuesday i took them into town with their products to teach them how to sell a) to the public b) to retail
6 out of 9 turned up (one reason they don't have a job in the first place), a few of them have real potential, a couple on the other hand didn't understand basic principles of selling i.e. smiling and making conversation with the customer.

Selling in the office of the stationary shop. The office ladies loved the retail escape away from their desks
conclusion: get inside the offices to sell



Selling to the customers who cant walk away in the food court


The students with their items


Selling to the BAT centre the earrings and cards on consignment: SCORE!

Next week they will experience selling on a market stall!
