I started the business around early nineties. It was a very difficult idea of a business. I asked myself as to what kind of business I want it to be.
During the nineties, the business I have chosen was MAIL ORDER. Every business I know independent of Big department stores is mail order business. My business has a theme. It will sell Filipino products. But I have a problem. Philippines have no identifying status like for instance New York City has The Empire State Building. Like Paris has the Eiffel Tower. Like China has The Great Wall. Egypt has the Pyramid. Philippines has none. It’s blasphemous to say it is not the Rizal monument but it is, if you’re looking for a land mark to attract sales.
As I was formulating ideas, I was looking for ways to finance it.
I have a job. I have a salary but not making enough to help finance a business.
The idea was set but in order to start the business I need money. As I said I have an idea of the kind of business I want to start. The money was the question.
