IF YOU CANT BUY YOUR OWN CAR..BE EXTRA, EXTRA CAREFUL.

Its been a while since I last posted on my blog and its still not my intention to post a new article until next month but something got my attention. It was about a simple note (or a doc to be exact) on facebook that's about a couple of friends who rode a jeepney in ortigas. Luckily they were able to share the very, very unignorable story for every filipino's sake. Buti nlang I saw the story and I immediately shared the article on my wall, facebook groups and chat buddies. Ok, to cut this crappy intro, here's the story just read below.

"Hindi ako makapaniwalang may mga tao talagang handang pumatay para lang makuha yung mga materyal na bagay na gusto nila o siguro dala na ng desperasyon kung paano makakatawid ng gutom.

Kwinento sakin ‘to nung kaibigan ko kanina:

Papunta sila ng kaibigan niya sa CEU kahapon para sunduin yung isa pa nilang kaibigan. Sumakay sila ng jeep sa may bandang Ortigas. Pagsakay nila, konti lang yung mga pasaherong nakasakay. Mag-jowang magkayakap, isang matandang babae, sila, tapos yung driver. Sa may bandang likod sila nakaupo. Yung mag-jowa yung nasa may bandang unahan ng jeep. Nakasandal si ate kay kuya na parang natutulog tapos si kuya nakayakap kay ate. Yung matandang babae naman nasa may bandang gitna. Inaabot na nung kaibigan ko yung bayad niya dun sa lalaki pero hindi siya pinapansin kaya yung matandang babae na lang yung nagabot ng bayad. Yung matandang babae din yung nagabot ng sukli sa kanila.

Napansin na din nila nung mga oras na yun na ang sama ng tingin ng driver sa kanila. So medyo nagtataka na din sila. Mayamaya, biglang sinabi sa kanila nung matandang babae na bumaba na sila. So lalo silang naguluhan kung saan mas matatakot. Sa manong driver na masama yung tingin o sa aleng bigla na lang nagyayayang bumaba ng jeep. Hindi na din sila nagisip tapos bumaba na sila ng jeep. Pagkababa nila ng jeep, sinabi sa kanila nung matandang babae kung bakit.

Buti na lang daw hindi sila nagtanong kung bakit. Sabi nung matandang babae patay na daw yung babaeng nasa jeep. Hindi daw mag-jowa yung dalawa. Kaya nakasandal si ate kay kuya tsaka nakayakap si kuya kay ate kasi may nakasaksak kay ate na ice pick. Kaya hindi din inaabot ni kuya yung bayad. Napansin din daw ni ale na medyo nangingitim na yung bandang leeg ni ate. Kaya din daw siguro masama yung tingin ni manong driver sa kanila kasi baka binabalaan na din silang bumaba.

Nakakatakot lang kung iisipin mong isa ka sa mga nakasakay sa jeep na yun. Sobrang nakakatakot. Sa panahon ngayon, hindi ka na talaga makakasigurado kung sino yung mapagkakatiwalaan mo tsaka kung hanggang kelan na lang yung buhay mo. Nakakatakot na, lalo na kapag gabi.

Kaya paalala lang sa mga madalas bumyahe sa gabi, mag-ingat. Hangga’t maaari, maghanap ng kasama. Tsaka wag kalimutang magdasal. Hindi mo man akalain pero malaki ang impact niyan.

Ingat!

Philippine Franchise Has Good Outcomes

Philippine Franchise Association (PFA), cites franchising as the fastest method for business expansion.He must know where he is and where he wants to see himself in the future, and how he will go about it.The Philippines is considered the franchising hub of Asia, where franchising has experienced phenomenal growth in the past decades.Of the entire franchising sector, food brands make up 41 percent, service establishments 32 percent, and retail outlets 27 percent.In the Philippines, where over 45 percent of retail sales in shopping centers are from franchised enterprises, franchising contributes $6 billion or five percent of the Philippine GDP and provides employment for one million Filipinos.There is already a system in place, and all a franchisee must do is to follow that system - no more hit and miss.The franchisor can do this on his own if he is qualified enough, or consult with franchise experts at the Philippine Franchise Association.Franchising, a proven business model with a 90 percent success rate, makes use of other people's money, time and organization, allowing for rapid expansion.
We have posted this topic before but we want to add something up about the advantages of Philippine Franchise and also give some seminar and conference schedules that you can attend if you want to get into franchising in the Philippines.Comparing franchising to a marriage, Limjoco emphasizes the importance of screening potential franchisees thoroughly: "Franchising must be done with the right partner; it should stay in business for the longest time.Simply speaking, franchising works because it duplicates an already successful business," states Limjoco.From only about 50 brands in the 1980s, there are now 1,000 brands franchised in the Philippines (68 percent of them homegrown concepts), in five principal franchise sectors: fastfood; retail clothing; cafes, confectioneries and bakeshops; hospitality and wellness; and food carts.To set up a franchise, the potential franchisor must undergo a franchise development process that will define the franchise structure.Alegria "Bing" Sibal-Limjoco, CFE (uFranchise Sales and Mgt.All business endeavors must also be registered at the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) for single proprietorship and at the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for corporations.
Your product or service must stand out; there must be something unique about the idea you are franchising and you must look for your niche," notes Limjoco.For those considering franchising, it is recommended that the business must have been running for at least a year already, to be able to have a benchmark for future franchises.The franchisor must have a solid business plan," Limjoco adds.While there is no mandatory registration exclusive for franchising, it is important to get a trademark for your idea at the Intellectual Property Office to claim ownership of your brand," advises Limjoco.And of course, the concept must be profitable - that is the bottomline of business.The potential franchisor can then lay down the franchise agreement, develop the franchise operations manual, and then begin franchise marketing and sales, either through a franchise broker or their own department.With the prime mover advantage, a franchise brand can penetrate and saturate the market faster, easily attaining market leader status.

What Kind of Franchise Business is Perfect for Me?

Filed under: ArticlesAuthor: blutab

Are you planning to put up a business and still undecided of what kind of business to make? Or you are desiring to have a business that is easy to manage? Well, I may say that franchise business Philippines is a right choice for you.

Familiarizing with franchising business, it is the practice of using another firm’s successful business model. In short, you are going to use a successful business’ name. Franchising their names will easily attract customers. That is your edge to your competitors. Franchising popular business is good, but expect that the franchising fee is expensive. But don’t worry too much, because it has a higher percentage of returning the capital you invest than putting your own business.

If you will notice, franchising business are getting in demand today. Well, it’s because it is the simplest and easiest way to open a new business specially for the beginners. But, you must also consider the kind of franchise business that is right for you. You cannot easily open a business that is not in your interest. Always consider your interest when you open your business. Let’s say for example, you love to eat burgers, or ice cream. It’s better if you will go for an ice cream or burger franchise business. You can manage your business more focus if your interested into it.

Getting interested with cars or automobile? A car franchise business is perfect for you. A lot of car franchise business are now in the market, some are personally owned by celebrities. Franchising a car business is more expensive than the burger and ice cream business, because you need more staff and equipments. Remember, always try to consider your interest to your new business. Your interest will boost your attention to focus more on your business. Your knowledge and experience in cars or automobile will help you expand your way of managing your business.

It seems that most people today are concern with their health or facial and body care, and so, salons and health care business boom to the  business industry. It is a great idea putting a salon if  you are a beauty and health conscious person. People are more health and beauty conscious that’s why one of the top franchise business in the Philippines is the health and body-focused franchise business. Some celebrities have their franchise salons because they are interested with facial care, and so, it is easy for them to manage, advertise and attract customers. It’s another edge for the business. Always be open-minded in business matter.

As I search for some top franchise business Philippines, I found out that franchise business related to foods is the number one on the list. Aside from that people loves to eat, foods are the fastest and easiest to sell. Either a food cart business or a restaurant franchise business is a good option. For food cart franchise business, placing your cart to a convenient place will be a nice idea. The more people, the more costumer to buy your product. Some best locations are the park, mall, school or universities, and bus or train stations. Because the food cart can place anywhere in those places, many beginners are choosing food cart franchise than other business. Almost the same with the restaurant franchise business, but the problems is you need a bigger place. You cannot put your restaurant in the train stations. Some restaurant are near the company office or a commercial buildings. I just want to share the book that I read before. It’s a story about the number one franchise restaurant today. They say that a perfect place for your business is the number one thing to be consider when putting a business. Regardless of their product, the restaurant admits that there  are better burgers, chicken or spaghetti than they have, but the perfect place is what making them the number one restaurant today. So, you must keep this information and try to apply it.

Whatever kind of business you want to make, the decision is still up to you. What I have posted are tips and information that may help you upon making a decision on putting your franchise business. A car, food or health and body-focused business are some of the options you can choose. You just need to be wise and open-minded during the decision making. Your interest in the business you want to put up to must be consider too. Good luck on your business and keep learning.

Franchise Business – A Booming Industry in the Philippines

Filed under: Franchise Articles, Franchise InformationAuthor: JIp

In the midst of global financial crisis and the continuous massive lay offs, most people these days are awaken to the truth that now is the time to take the lead. Now is the time to take on the initiative to end the decade-old phenomenon of rat race.

In today’s global economic status, everybody must be creative, resourceful and assertive. Laid- off workers must not mourn over the misfortune, instead see it as an opportunity to get up and move on. This is the right time to be your own boss, be an entrepreneur. You must not let this crisis pull you down and the rest of the working class. You can make a difference, you can create jobs. Yes, you heard it right; you can be the boss of your own business and at the same time provide job opportunities to others. All these are possible through FRANCHISING!

Franchise business in the Philippines is one of the most outstanding and successful businesses. Look at Jollibee and the rest of the giant food chains sprouting around. These are just few results of franchising. Whenever you think of opening or starting up of a business, it is always imperative to know all the details of the entity you would like to engage in. In franchise business, money is not the top most important, but rather your knowledge on the process and the product that you would like to offer to your future customers. There are few factors that you need to consider if you are eyeing on this kind of business. First consideration is the product. You must choose a franchise that interests you the most. Choose the one that you frequently use at home or at work. Feed your mind, and make some research about it. Second factor to consider is the customers. After you have chosen a product, then think about your future patrons. Study your market so you can offer them the right product or service.

Starting a business whether it is small or grand always requires a careful study. The next factor to take into account is the location. This factor is the most crucial part because the life of your business greatly depends here. You have to place your business where your clients are. More so, you have to remember that competition in any franchise is stiff. In one area, there may be more than one kiosk or store offering the same products that you have. So, how are you going to solve that? Always keep in mind to look for the best location where there are more customers and fewer competitors. The next thing to note on is the demand. This factor is somehow related to the location of your business. You must be in the place where most if not all of your customers are since the more customers you will have the greater the need or demand of your product. Another very important factor is the cost. You must know how much you are willing to invest in your franchise. Know your starting capital, production expense, marginal and employment costs. This is essential since you have to retrieve your previous expenses and at the same time have profit. Last but definitely no the least factor is your capacity. You must be serious, positive and enthusiastic in pursuing your franchise. Take note that your franchise can grow big if you put heart into it.

Franchise business in the Philippines is bright and promising. It is the answer to the current economic crisis, unemployment and decent source of livelihood. Franchise business is a great avenue for people who aim to start a business. There are a number of franchise businesses to choose from here in the Philippines. There are low-budget franchise businesses that usually come in kiosk and cart forms, while big and high-end ones are also available.

Franchise business in the Philippines has grown tremendously from food to clothing line to almost everything that people use in everyday life. Surely, you will find the best franchise of your interest, choice and budget. Search for the most credible franchise business, the company who shows passion and commitment to the business

Tips For Researching The Best Franchise Business

When considering the best franchise opportunity for you, there's a few things to look at when doing your research. If you research these things right, you give yourself the best possible chance of success. Research the wrong things and you might be doomed before you even get started.


1. Start-up Costs - Some franchises cost as little as P100,000 all the way up to a couple of hundred thousand pesos. On top of that, depending on which franchise it is, there may be start-up costs in getting an office or retail location, leasing or purchasing equipment, inventory, holding costs, fixed costs, variable costs, etc. I think I've used the word 'costs' a bunch in this section.

You have to really understand ALL the costs when finding the best franchise opportunity for you. Sometimes a home-based franchise might be appealing because you don't have the costs of what's mentioned above. Sometimes all you need is a computer, telephone and Internet connection and you can run your entire franchise. Like everything, do your research first.

2. Scalability - This point is so important but it's overlooked so many times. What I really mean here is that you have to know what kind of return you can expect on your investment. Is the return going to make you the money to achieve your financial goals? The reality is that most franchises will not get you to the promised land by themselves. It usually requires owning multiple franchise to achieve the income and lifestyle that you truly desire, but not always. Once again, your research can open up some hidden nuggets of gold.

3. Royalties - Companies like to get paid just like you right? Yeah, I thought so. Royalties can range anywhere from 2%-8% depending on the business but what's pretty universal is that the royalties are based on gross revenue and not net profits. Ouch. That can hurt depending on the franchise.

In fact, some franchises have a minimum royalty fee no matter the circumstances. For instance, some car wash franchises have a minimum in place even during the rainy season where business essentially 'all washed out'. That can put some people in a bad situation or even out of business. Do your research carefully and make sure the best franchise opportunity for you fits into your parameters.


4. Passion - Now your passion isn't something you can research in finding the best franchise opportunity, but it's vital to the process. We all dream of owning our own business and but the truth is its very hard work and long hours. If you're not passionate about what you do, then you won't put in the necessary time and effort to succeed.

You also need to understand what you want out of life and have balance. If your goal is to be home every night and on weekends, don't get a franchise where the busy times are at night and on weekends. Be smart about your decision and keep your priorities and goals in mind that is in alignment with your values.

Bottom line is there's a lot of factors when considering owning a franchise. Take everything above into consideration, do the proper research and choose the best franchise opportunity that is right for you and your family.

Why Do Filipinos Franchise?

On the flip side, owning a franchise usually requires territory restrictions which could affect your bottom line, you normally have to pay royalties on the gross revenue and you have to have a considerable net worth to be considered for owning a franchise.Bottom line is that both sides have good things and bad things.Look at the most successful franchise in the world, McDonald's.You can set your own prices, you can market however you choose and you don't have to follow any strict guidelines or stay inside the box.That's because of its system.It is one of the most recognized brands in the world and you get the same experience everywhere even though their food is not even close to being the best.Another reason individuals buy franchises is because they don't have to go out and build supplier relationships, create marketing initiatives, create systems and infrastructures or reinvent the wheel.In all honesty, part of the decision really should be how risk averse someone is.As an entrepreneur, if you know the story of both sides, you can make a wise decision based on what you're comfortable with.I mean, that's the American dream in a nutshell.It usually requires a handful of them, but not always.So a great question to ask is 'Why buy franchises when you can start your own business with your own conditions under your own rules'.Owning your own business gives you the flexibility to grow as big as you want just like Apple, Microsoft, Facebook, etc.So many people turn to entrepreneurship and business ownership looking to live that 'American Dream' and the happiness that comes with it.That's usually because a lack of planning, lack of capital and a lack of systems.First, since you are the head honcho, you can literally do whatever you want (within the law of course) and you can build your business however you want.

Another reason people don't buy franchises is the scalability factor.

I would argue that most people want to work for themselves, set their own schedule and make as much money as they want, right?If they like high risk and high rewards, then a traditional business would be good for them.Well the truth is both have some advantages and some disadvantages.Owning your own business also comes with its own sets of challenges and rewards.Usually you can't make a significant income by just owning 1 franchise.That's a legitimate question and one that needs some discussion, so let's get started.If they like lower risk and small to medium reward, then a franchise could be a good way to go.Owning a franchise significantly reduces that number.Before you get all excited about being your own 'cowboy' in the wild west, understand that 95% of all businesses fail in the first 3 years.Trust me, I get it.So now the question really is, "what kind of business is right for me?Franchises have a system in place that is PROVEN to have results and they usually have strong brand names associated with them.People buy franchises mostly because of a few main factors.I think you get the idea.Should I consider buying a franchise or starting my own business from scratch.People can own their own business and 'let it all ride' based on their expertise or they can buy franchises and have a much better chance of success, just not a huge success with just 1 franchise.
