I already have a small business in the Philippines. It's actually a partnership between my ex-boyfriend who is now my husband. Lol! It's a digital shop where the people could have their photos printed in all sizes and so on. We do cover weddings and other special occasions also.
For the first year, the business was really struggling. Our newly purchased machines bugged down on the third month and the earnings or the sale return was not enough to support the business.
We did a lot of marketing and promotion to introduce the business which actually worked. On the 1st quarter of the 2nd year, sales started to keep up and customers were coming back. So now, everything is doing well with the business.
Our small business will be turning 5 this July. We are thanking God for that blessing.
