00:00Medical equipment is very important, especially when there is an emergency.
00:05Manufacturing and selling of medical equipment is not a joke.
00:08But how does this type of business work?
00:12Let's find out here in Negosyo Tayo.
00:20It started in 2020.
00:22In 2019, I was employed by a medical equipment and device company.
00:29When the pandemic hit, on March 13, I decided to resign.
00:33In 2020, I received three times the government's assistance.
00:41The assistance was P10,000.
00:44So, P30,000.
00:46I started with P30,000 for small items like masks and PPE.
00:53You can buy them cheaply from Bangbang.
00:56I also had a client who inquired about an oxygen concentrator.
01:01What he did for me was that he gave us a 50% down payment.
01:05So, that's what we did.
01:07We can start a business where we will just use our discounts
01:13and then we can develop our trust as customers.
01:19Actually, there were a lot of businessmen during the COVID-19 pandemic.
01:23I was one of them.
01:24I just wanted to earn money and help.
01:28Because we couldn't find a source of income.
01:30I've been a medical representative in different companies for 18 years.
01:34I also became a manager and handled people.
01:37Because of my experience, I was able to use it in building a business.
01:43I compared it to when I was an employee for 18 years.
01:47We really didn't have anything to save.
01:49We couldn't travel abroad.
01:51We couldn't buy our own house.
01:56Somehow, we were able to go abroad.
01:59That's what we enjoyed when I had my own business.
02:03We were able to buy land in Digos.
02:11My biggest challenge in my company as an employer and as a manager
02:19is that the business is very easy to manage
02:21but the management of people is very hard to manpower.
02:24In terms of family, our bonding was okay.
02:30I was able to take my kids to school.
02:32Unlike as an employee, you need to time in early.
02:35Then, you're out at this time.
02:38So, the bond with your family,
02:40you won't be able to do what I'm doing now.
02:43To our Filipino women,
02:45if you can get support from the government,
02:51try to train her.
02:54Try to build a small business,
02:59like a burger or something like that.
03:02A small business that can help support the family.
03:05You can do business without capital.
03:07You just need to develop trust and a good relationship with the person you're talking to.
03:14If we have a small value,
03:16we can do business.
03:17Don't be afraid.
03:19Let's continue.
03:20Even if we make mistakes in our business,
03:23let's get up and fight
03:25so that we can help our family in need.
03:28So, let's go!
03:30Let's do business!
