COMBINING JOBS AND OWN SMALL BUSINESS

COMBINING JOBS AND OWN SMALL BUSINESS My dear friends, perhaps there was a time when it was difficult for anybody have a regular job and own a small business at the same time. That was the case before, because owning a brick-and-mortar business takes too much time and effort. Nowadays however, the preponderance of the internet technology has changed all that, because of electronic commerce or ecommerce for short. Nowadays, anyone using ecommerce could run his or her business remotely from anywhere, at any time, for as long as he or she has a computer or a mobile phone, and if he or she has a good signal of course. What that means that anyone who has a full-time job could still have the extra time to own and operate an online business, even if he or she does not have his or her own website yet. As far as I know, many small business owners are only using Facebook Marketplace to sell their goods and services, meaning that they are not yet selling on Shopee, Lazada. Alibaba or the other online platforms. If they are happy with that, they could stick with that, but eventually it would be best if they could have their own ecommerce site. It does not matter to me no matter what platform they use. As a matter of fact, they don’t even have to sell online yet, if they have a business on their own, no matter how small. My advocacy is for every Filipino to have their own business, aside from having a job. And they don’t even have to go into processing or manufacturing either. Many small business owners are just going into simple buying and selling, either from local or foreign sources. What is good about the internet is that you could buy anything on wholesale and retail, and it will be delivered to your doorstep. What that means is that you don’t even have to go to Divisoria physically in person, because the Divisoria merchants are already online also. And unlike before when it was to find merchants among the maze of stores hidden in many places, it is easier to find them now using the search engines of Facebook and Google. Up to now, many small business owners are still making a good living by selling via some Multi-Level Marketing (MLM). As far as I am concerned, there is really nothing wrong with MLM, for as long as there are real good quality products to sell, and no one is forced to buy inventories that they do not need. Those who want to join MLM organizations should however be careful about joining without doing some background investigations first. Otherwise, they could be joining a scam. A Direct Selling Organization (DSO) could be a better option compared to MLM. There is no need for the so-called pairing, and you only buy what you need. Aside from that, you could see all their products online, and you could check on their company profiles online. Better still, it would be advisable to check on their company reviews, just to be sure.
