I often take time to see friends and hang out at coffee shops talking about anything and everything over a cup of coffee at least once a week. We would talk about fashion, gossips, tax deductions and sometimes random business ideas. We would laugh about it and just forget we even talk about it. But being a business minded freak I would really consider those suggestions we all think are stupid. Here are a couple.
1. Taka-tak boy business
These are boys/men or sometimes women who sell cigarettes in a box who walk around the streets and they make sound to attract customers. Ever thought how much they earn? I heard from a friend working in a call center in Libis that since 1 pack of cigarette costs around 35 to 40 pesos they would just look for takatak boy who sells 2 pesos per stick. With the vast traffic of customers as per manong taka-tak boy he would use almost 10 to 15 rims in a day. You do the math:
1 rim has 12 packs of cigarette which has 20 sticks. hmmmm quite the earnings right? considering they don't have tax deductions and supervisors pushing they ass for quota.
2.Basahan
We all heard that this is really a good form or a small business. Just look for old clothes and cut it in rounds and sew them by hand. You can now sell them on the streets. Neat right?
3.Housekeeping
Imagine cleaning in a centralized posh room and getting dollars as tips. Yeah but the downside is if you can take cleaning dirty toilet and bathroom. But hey its dollars $_$.
