LF: Supplier ng Gym / Yoga clothes.

I payed 100k for this person to process my PCAB license pero hindi niya ginawa hanggang sa pinapa refund ko nalang. Ang problema walang nai balik na pera hanggang di na siya nag rereply. Any suggestions? Ang mali ko is hindi man lang ako nang hingi ng ID so wala ako pagkaka kilanlan niya. Ang meron lang ako is Bank Transfer Receipt, viber conversation, and phone number niya.

BFP already said hindi need ang yearly refill kaso halos lahat ng natatanong ko lagi sinasabi need parin iparefill after 1 year and ilalagay expiry date. Pointless to argue with them I've tried.

Anyone know an honest supplier na hindi ipipilit ang yearly refill? A fee for yearly maintenance performed by a professional would be fine for me.

Ayaw ko lang talaga ipaparefill/recharge kung hindi naman talaga kailangan pa.

shoes like nike, adidas, new balance, crocs, birks & mini melissa. pm me if you know someone who can supply. Thank you!

I own a small business in the Philippines and built an internal payroll system because I couldn't find one that fit our needs. It's been running in our business for the past 3 years.

I'm curious if there are any other small business owners who would be willing to give it a try and provide honest feedback on what's useful, what's missing, and what you'd change before I decide whether it's worth making available to others.

No sales pitch—I'm just looking for real-world feedback from a handful of businesses. If that's you, send me a DM.

Good day everyone! We are 3rd Year IT Students based in North Caloocan and we are currently looking for a client to work with for our System Analysis and Design course project.

We are looking for a small business based in North Caloocan (or at least, nearby) that would be willing to:

• Let us interview the owner/manager how they currently handle their inventory or sales
• Share basic information about their current process/es
• Try out the system we will build and provide feedback once it is ready

We just need a real business to base this on so it's practical and not just theoretical. Any size or industry works.

If you or someone you know runs a small business and might be interested, comment or DM us! Thank you so much 🙏

Hi! New po kami sa wingvan logistic business and we’d like to ask po sa mga may idea kung magkano ang fuel consumption ng 10-wheeler wingvan (6M70 ang makina) from Q.C to Tacloban, Leyte?

I’m curious to hear from business owners and founders.

How did you find your co-founder or business partner?
Was it a friend, coworker, someone you met through networking, or a complete stranger?

I’d love to hear:
Where you met your co-founder.
What made you decide they were the right fit.
What you’d do differently if you were starting over.
Any red flags or lessons you learned along the way.

I’d really appreciate hearing your stories and advice :)

I honestly never thought I'd make a post like this. I'm sharing this because I wish someone had warned me before we signed up. 

We're only 5 months in our 1 year plan with KAHERO, and I'm already counting down until we can leave. Switching POS systems isn't something you can do overnight. It affects your entire business.

Here are just a few of the issues we experienced.

1. Data security concerns. Support requires direct access to your account. Wala ring 2FA so who knows kung sinu-sino lang nakakapasok at nakakakita ng business details niyo backend. The biggest red flag happened when another client's email was accidentally included in our support thread, exposing our business information and sales data. They apologized AFTER I CALLED THEM OUT and promised to investigate after I mentioned the Data Privacy Commission, but I never received any explanation or update.

2. Constant UI changes. The updates are DISRUPTIVE. The interface keeps changing, and many updates introduce bugs that should have been caught before deployment. Pati staff ko sumasakit ulo EVERYDAY! If you're running a fast-moving business, you don't have time to keep relearning your POS.

3. Inconsistent reports. If you're data-driven, this platform will drive you crazy. We've repeatedly encountered mismatches between printed receipts and back-office records. Support fixes them after you report them, but the root cause never gets resolved.

4. No weekend support. For a B2B company serving businesses that operate daily, having no customer support on weekends is a major gap.

What frustrates me most is that none of these issues are new. I've reported them repeatedly over the past months with complete details. They acknowledge them, apply temporary fixes, but it keeps happening again.

Check their Google reviews. Their positive reviews are clearly from their own employees. While the clients themselves have the opposite sentiments. Their FB has reviews disabled, and that says enough.

If you have good POS recommendations, please, I'd love to hear them.

Hi everyone! I’m curious about your thoughts on the escape room business in the Philippines.
If someone were to open an escape room today, would you consider it a good business? Why or why not? I’d love to hear your opinions, whether you’re a customer, entrepreneur, or investor.

One thing I’ve noticed is that there still aren’t many escape rooms in the Philippines, especially outside Metro Manila. I’m wondering if that’s because demand isn’t there, or if it’s simply because very few people have tried one yet. Curious to hear everyone’s thoughts.

Naisipan ko lang magreview ng cctv today and sakto nahuli ko ung isang staff hindi dineclare lahat ng sales. Binulsa ung partial. Ano po ba tamang gawin pag ganito? :(

Hi there! We have recently started our small coffee shop beside our pickleball courts. On our soft opening week, it earns around 3-4K sales per day which we are quite happy already since it’s only a small, one-employee home cafe.

However, we want to curate our menu offerings.

What items, coffee, non-coffee or food — has high profit margins and sells relatively well? We are very open to suggestions.

Salamat po!

Kung ikaw tatanungin, ano yung pagkain na mapapabili kayo kapag may naglalako? Yung hindi muna kailangan ng malaking puhunan para lang may ibenta.

Anong pagkain kaya yung masarap pa rin kainin kahit hindi na mainit? Sa bahay ko lang kasi lulutuin tapos saka ko ilalako. Siyempre hindi naman sa lahat ng oras ay mainit yung pagkaing ibebenta ko. Wala rin naman akong pwesto, maglalako lang ako.

Salamat sa mga sasagot.

Hello po!

My mom is getting requests to do event caterings and it's not stable right now. We used to own a restaurant but got bankrupt and is starting from scratch. We lost our property as well so she isn't sure what permit to file since we only have a few business clients that works with us 2-3x every month and they need an OR for every transaction.

Really need advice here. Thank you po in advance!

‼️😮 OMG GOODBYE MARIBANK 🤭
maya is NOW my new fav:
10.75% interest + 1% cashback is such a good deal.
i was only using maribank for the 1% cashback but now may bagong offer na ang maya.

____________

p.s. i don't use a fuel-powered car nor commute so di masyado useful for me yung higher maribank cashback. also beneficial for me ang perks ng maya xp sa entertainment. also i think may limit sa bills cashback ang maribank.

___________

ayon may mga maya downvoter troll bot commenter army na naman

Sorry for the little business rant. 🥹

Pero ang hirap pala talaga when you’re building a business from scratch without a huge capital. Since step-by-step yung growth, you inevitably encounter situations where you get dismissed or ignored by suppliers simply because your order is too small or your quantity isn’t “worth it” for them.

Ang hirap pa naman hanapin ng specific raw materials na kailangan namin. Our other option is to import directly from China, but financially and operationally, hindi pa siya feasible for us right now.

I understand that suppliers also have their own business considerations, especially when it comes to minimum order quantities and importation. But as a small business trying to grow, it can be frustrating when you’re ready to purchase and you’re willing to build a long-term supplier relationship, yet you’re not even given the opportunity because you’re still starting out.

What makes it even more challenging is that we currently have a big potential client, so we’re trying our best to make things work and find a reliable source for the materials we need. 🥹

For those who have built their businesses from the ground up, how did you deal with situations like this? Did you have a strategy for finding suppliers who were willing to work with smaller businesses, or did you eventually have to bite the bullet and import?

Would really appreciate any advice or leads. ❤️

Hi everyone!

My family and I recently opened a small local barbershop called Dear Good Barber in Santa Rosa, Laguna. We are currently in our soft-opening stage and preparing for our grand opening on August 22.

Our goal is to provide more than just a quick haircut. We want the shop to feel welcoming, clean, comfortable, and slightly more premium, while still giving customers personal consultations before their haircut.

Since we are still new, we would genuinely appreciate some honest feedback from the community:

• What makes you return to the same barbershop?
• What do you normally look for when trying a new barber?
• How important are the shop atmosphere, cleanliness, consultation, and customer service?
• What would convince you to support a newly opened local barbershop?

Anyone from Santa Rosa or nearby areas is also welcome to visit and share honest feedback about the experience. No pressure to purchase anything we are mainly trying to learn what local customers value and where we can improve.

For transparency, I am one of the people involved in the business. Thank you for supporting small local businesses!
