Some people would really say that putting up own business is hard and some would say it's easy. There is no such easy or hard in putting up own business as for me, it's all about good strategies on how to manage and run your capital for business in a most profitable way. As for me, if I would put up own business, I would think of something which is not in common, then think if it is very helpful to the society that you will say people will be coming and availing the offer and services. Mini supermarket is the most common business we do in Philippines, it's gonna be be hard coz in the first place you gonna have many near competitors just your neighbor, then all the supplies is getting so expensive today and people right now doesn't spend that much due to crises. If I would to put up my own business prefer with financial support (loans), tour & Travel Agency, Beauty Parlor and more. that's it.... I hope this gives you idea..... all the best to you who are business-minded people... goodluck & god bless!

I have supplied my wife with capital and she has started a business in the Philippines. Three distinct advantages to doing business in the Philippines. 1. Less market saturation because there is a lower number of entrepreneurs due to culture. (mainly laziness) 2. Relative poverty of two thirds of the country, so purchasing capital assets is fairly inexpensive. (this also supports item 1) 3. Little, if any real commerce exists outside of Manila. Instead of trying to rush into Manila where competition is fierce, try doing business elsewhere. That's a sure way to succeed. BTW, this is exactly what WALMART did. Walmart is now the largest retailer in the world. In all honesty, I find it fairly easy to succeed in the Philippines. Our business is experiencing exponentail growth right now. While that will probably taper off to normalized growth rates in two years or so there is a great deal of room to grow.

Also, you need at least a good amts. to start to be able to sustain during the early months of negative cash flow of your bzness. Lastly, it's all hardwork + the faith from the Lord are all it matters to succeed.

Find a small but lucrative niche that the big players have chosen to ignore or not to target. Afraid you're just "one of the many" bars out there? Target a certain group of people, say those who'd like to drink the best beers from all over the world, or make it an exclusive bar that only fifty can go in at one time. The possibilities are limitless... Try niching. Find a small but lucrative niche that the big players have chosen to ignore or not to target. Afraid you’re just “one of the many” bars out there?
