People come up to me occasionally, some ring me on the phone and say to me that they cannot afford to pay the fees for the makeup school. This got me thinking… ‘Why not do something unique to empower young people that are financially constrained?’
Hence, the birth of a pet project… HOUSE Of TARA SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM. Here is an opportunity for certain selected individuals to attend the make up school for: ABSOLUTELY FREE.

just read about the house of tara scholarship....am sorry but in my own opinion.....a scholarship is supposed to be a way of helping the under- priviledged but asking ppl to pay for an application form is way out of it.
ReplyDeleteyep, before u criticise me....I use tara products as well and am a big fan, why not upload an application form and ask ppl to download it.
just u imagine, a thousand ppl picking up an application form at a grand naira each (1000x1000).....u do the maths. just for ten ppl to be picked.
am so sorry but this aint no scholarship.
just tot i let u know, considering am a customer too.
take kia nd keep up ur good work....can see ur very consistent with wat u do. the sky is the take off point.
have a fab day mam!!!!

i think i understand what Tara is doing. You know what they say "do what you have to do". Its not a crime though if one has to pay to pick up these forms. At least it will get all the applicants serious and expectant. You know there is something about what you pay to get. If it were free, a lot of people are going to flock in for it.I think this is a nice strategy for weeding out 'prospective nuisance' and admitting students who are going to be appreciative of the program.
ReplyDeleteTara you are doing a nice job, though keep it up. You can visit www.afrihubcommunication.blogspot.com for more information on these sorts of business marketing and sales strategies. Good luck.
@shola Thanks so much for your post . I like people with your kind of discerning mind. you see issues as it is and not as any other . I would really like to meet you .People like will go far in life because you are not hoodwinked .
ReplyDeletejust want 2 knw if pickin up d form is a guarantee of u bin awarded d scholarship.is a vry gud tink cos av bin diein 2 learn hw 2 b a makeup artist tanks tara am a huge fan
ReplyDeletehi, ashiru,
ReplyDeletehave faith.if you write wellin the essay, which is the next step in the admission, you will be invited for an oral interview. i wish you all good luck,
@ afrihub thanks girl you have taken the words right out of my mouth i really apprecite it, thanks a bunch 4 understanding the motive behind taking such measures.
@ shola thanks for your comments as well. but knowledge cannot be financilly quantified. thanks for patronizing us keep being a customer
Hi, am really interested in ur progrm, but i think u should do everything online so that everybody can participate no matter where they are, like the scholarship form if am not in any of the mentioned areas how can i get one? 2 b specific am in Asaba in delta state so hw can i get mine must i spend another thousand to go and get it? Another thing is wat abt workers can they still be members of d reps. cause of time and d training can't it b online? So am suggstn let it be online prgrm
ReplyDeletethanks 4 bin thoughtful. i av bin trying to meet with u for quite sometime now but i thought i wont be privileged. i av once gone 4 makeup trainig in Kubwa in Abuja but my boss died after a brief illness which made me not to have any certificate to show 4 it.eva since then, i av bin trying to start another trainig but the fee is driving me crazy. i am ur fan and i av always love ur product, they are superb. i will purchase the form and please let me be among the lucky ones because dis is my future, this is wat i want to be. help make my dream come true. thanx
