Erika Cáceres Díaz, with her daughter Madeline: I work making stickers and signs. A lot of our work comes from the transport sector, buses and taxis mainly. We also do signs for offices, emergency exits and so on, but we get less business from that, it’s mainly transport, public and private. God has given me a talent for this, I thank God for it. And we’ve done trainings, for how to run a business, and I’ve learned other things on YouTube too. When we started, we didn’t know how to use the computer, we hadn’t been able to study much at school, so we had to learn a lot. I’ve done distance study at the university now too, in graphic design. World Renew, through Christian Ministries, has given us economic support too, credit to buy the computer and materials, as well as the trainings. Training on how to run a business and control costs, and know how far down you can go with pricing, that’s been important, it’s a competitive business, and prices are changing, we’re buying products that come into the country, so we’re paying dollars but earning lempiras, you need to understand what you are doing.
