Business Matters

While I was singing for a wedding last Saturday, a received a call from the franchise consultant. Since I was unavailable at that time, I returned the call when the ceremony finished.

The big boss lady wants to know when we can meet for the ocular inspection of our target location. I specified two afternoons. I hope this meeting pushes through. It would mean that my franchise application is up for approval.

-----------------

It is extremely difficult to get an answer from my franchisee. I am always the one calling their office for updates. Shouldn't she be the one trying to chase me since I am the one who's investing? If I don't get a reply from them soon, I'm afraid that I'd lose the space to someone else. After all, it is an Ayala-managed property.

-----------------

I've been praying for this business to materialize. It would make my days more productive. More importantly, it would supplement our family income. I just hope I can figure out where we'll draw the money from. The money tree doesn't bear fruit fast enough.

I must've visited almost all reseller shops I've seen on the road.  I've noticed that these shops carry the top 3 popular ones:  Hermes, Chanel and Louis Vuitton.  There still are several pieces of Balenciaga, Valentino, Tory Burch, Celine, Gucci and Michael Kors but not as abundant as the top 3.  I guess what carries the most value are the three popular ones. If you are looking for cheap designer bags, I suggest checking out Don Quixote.  You will usually find on the topmost floors on Donki.  I think this is the one in Shinjuku. I am not so sure. You find them arranged like this or inside locked glass cabinets.  I'm sure the artisans who made these bags will tu...
