Kung within Cebu City ka bai, aw looy, mapogos dyud ka og bayad P3,000. Unya apil dayon ka sa tag dyes-dyes kada oras rate. Madugay maabot sa tag sinko per hour. Or pohon mahimong piso per hour.

I've been in the cafe business for seven years already, among cafe naa dinhi sa Banilad so daghan daghan gyud mi dinhi nga ga compete for market share. Dugay dugay na pud mi so along the way daghan pud kaayo ug changes sa industry, some are good and some are not so good. Just be prepared for changes nga usahay dili sa imohang kagustohan, labi na karon nga naa mag dive dive sa price in the hopes of capturing market share. Swerte lang ko nga at the time nagtukod ko ug cafe, experiment ra to so dili gyud mao ang main source of income. Pwera buyag lang pud, because we built the cafe with ambiance in mind, we've always had customers willing to stick with us. As for ICAC and other associations, member pud mi pero dili ko active sa mga activities because the cafe is not the only thing I'm busy with. Para nako, kinahanglan man pud ug association when you're in a trade, just like employees have a union, or exporters have a representative group. It is also a way to protect the interests of the industry, if the assocation so wills it and if the assocation is dedicated to that goal.

Akong ma suggest nimo is while na ka ana nga negosyo, do not make it your primary source of income. If naa ka work, don't resign yet. A desirable projection of the cafe business is you have your return of investment in 8 months to one year, then the following year, this would be your cash crop so tiguma. At the end of the second year, decide objectively on whether it will still earn on the third year or daghan ra kaayo ang competition or mahal na ang pag upgrade. If you project that you can afford to upgrade everything after the third year, then go for it. Otherwise, you'll end up being bitter why you started the cafe in the first place. You become a whiner and blame everything from the associations to the low 5-peso per hour rates to the sari-sari-store-converted-to-cafes beside you. But you have to realize that if price and rates are everything, why is Coca Cola still selling more than RC or Sarsi or Pop or Sparkle combined? Why do we prefer Athlon over Sempron? Why do some people always prefer PAL over Cebu Pacific?

Bai Baruy, i'm running i-cafe for 4months now and so far so good.. i'm also workin at the same time with a night shift sked. Question lang.. what is your primary source of income aside from i-cafe? are you still operating i-cafe now?

Before when I started the cafe, I used to work for one of the pharmaceutical companies, lisud gani to kay I was assigned in bohol so weekends ra ko naa. Yep, hangtod karon kay sige pa ang cafe going into our 8th year pwera buyag, I'm planning to expand the place. I-separate na gyud namo ang internet ug ang games kay mag away tungod aning youtube, hehe, I always keep in the customer's interests seriously. Right now, primary source of income kay naa pud lain negosyo (retailing sa public market), naa pud some business investments. Maayo man gud manrabaho while paminawn usa ang negosyo kung ok ba, at least if things don't work out, it's not as painful as kung wala'y work.

Good for you nga you're doing ok with your business. It's good to know that people take risks in doing business, because sometimes reading the posts here sa istorya mang discourage man ang uban tao, sometimes medyo sarcastic pud ang comments. You alone know best what makes your business work, just be receptive towards your customers' needs. Good luck to you.

Thanks bro. yah you're right mag conflict jud ang you tube og online games that's why mahal jud akong internet gamay kaysa games. Good to hear that you've gone so far in i-cafe. I hope i could reach that span in the future.. Gud luck to us!!
