A woman who was laid off from work due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic shared an important lesson when starting a business.
“After a month, I started my business.E ven my husband, he is in Italy and nawalan din po siya ng work because of pandemic. So we risked our savings to start our small business,” she added. “We only have four rolls of fabric, pinatahi namin siya sa sewers. Nagustuhan ng aming mga clients since very unique ‘yung aming mga designs. That’s the start of our new beginnings as a business owner,” she recalled.
“They are sending me feedbacks na, “Uy you should post this kasi ang ganda, ang comfy ng sleepwear niyo. Without social media, I think we cannot hear ‘yung success na meron kami,” she added. “I was depressed ‘yung husband ko, we’re always fighting na, bakit mo pa ininvest?Wala na nga tayong pera, P500 na lang ‘yung pera mo sa bank account. ‘Di ka ba nanghihinayang? I told him give me last chance. And that chance, I took it seriously because I only have that one eh and then that’s the time na parang sinugal ko na lahat. Bahala na kung anong mangyari basta I did my best,” she stressed.
