I have been always "business" minded ever since my elementary days. I studied in a private school in Q.C wherein all of my classmates clan are all from the upper class. But this never became hindrance for me to continue my selling antics to them. With the encouragement I got from my mom, I got to sell headbands, trinkets to yemas to my rich classmates.Yes, imagine a shameless elementary grade school kid that I was. All that ever stuck in my mind that time is that I enjoy earning money on my own (though it was just a small amount). Being an early entrepreneur made me become wiser even now that I was a mom now.
Now that I have my own family of course the dream to have my own business is still there. But since there are now more growing businesses, that would be a task as well. So I guess to eliminate that one step towards to our success in the business field, everyone most especially to those people who are really just starting out or must have started out their businesses and want to broaden their horizons and expand their network , this next big event is just for you.
From Oct.27-29, 2011 at the PICC Forum of PICC , Roxas Blvd, Manila , the event will be dubbed as PHILIPPINED SME and FRANCHISE EXPO 2011.
At the event a large number of franchise exhibitors will be there for us to see what are their businesses. And maybe if you are luckier , you may take part and hear the talks that guest speakers has to say about the success of Franchising Small and Medium Enterprises. And most exciting part of the event is that Mr. Armando "Butz" Bartolome, who also headed the Franchise Institute of the Philippines (FIP) and also known as the "Franchise Guru" behind well-known SME businesses like Mang Inasal, Lay Bare Waxing Salon,Fiorgelato, Potato Corner, Chicharific!!!, Freska Ilonggo Seafood &Inasal, Julie's Bakeshop, Baliwag Lechon Manok, and etc.
These 3-day event will become a learning venue for all those people who aspire to have their own business or franchise one. And there's more , on the the event itself there will be great deal of free services , workshops and free seminars from the "Franchise Guru" himself.
