I have one problem with our customers: they don't accept the prices. If you tell them for example: "this table cloth costs fifteen thousand", they say "aha, ten thousand" or "eight thousand!". They think it's a small job and just decoration. Instead it is a big job and it takes a long time and is done by women who are organised in a group. Therefore I ask them to value our work!
Kero yangu kwa wateja wetu: hawaridhiki na bei. Ukiwaambia kwa mfano "table cloth elfu kumi na tano", wanasema "aah, elfu kumi!" ama "elfu nane!". Wanaona ni kazi ndogo na wanaona ni shanga tu. Kumbe ni kazi kubwa na inachukua muda mrefu halafu ni kazi ya wanawake wenye vikundi. Kwa hivyo naomba wajali kazi zetu!
