Business: GotoKing Franchisee
Category: The Young Millionaire
The first time he visited the site for his GotoKing franchise, he saw a ramshackle building that had clearly seen better, but he glimpsed an opportunity where other people saw an eyesore. It was right on the busiest corner of Batangas City.
Without even knowing what type of enterprise to put in the area, he leased it right away because his instincts told him that it was an ideal place for a business. Until he decided to set up a GotoKing franchise as its dishes were not too expensive.
It was an instant hit. He was doing everything from marketing to operations. Then he enrolled in the entrepreneurship program of Asian Institute of Management to learn how to manage a business efficiently.
Their franchiser also allowed them to introduce lomi in their menu since Batanguenos love to eat lomi.
"We have a lot of competitors but I welcome this, they keep you on your toes and force you to improve and innovate."
"When you see your business improving and you're able to help your community at the same time, it gives you a great deal of satisfaction and accomplishment. Seeing opportunities everyday gets me excited, so when I put up more businesses in the future, I know I will have fun. When doing business, strive to give good quality, products and services, but never forget the value of building relationships with customers and cultivating their loyalty."
GOLDEN RULE:
"Know your priorities in life and use your passion to create long-lasting value."
