Business Startup Options in the Philippines

[@rob9207]

Great video, although you could have gone into more details about costs and bureaucracy. There is indeed another option that Im considering, which is to set-up a "subsidy" of an existing foreign company. I have small web development/web marketing company and I'm very interested in that option. Would be great if you could do a full video on that? Just in case you need content ideas.🙂 I'm looking for the simplest and cheapest option to hire people and have looked at the laws of hiring "independent contractors", but I'm a bit concerned because I'll likely be their only source of income, which would make them be considered "employees" insteas. Would love more info about that also, what the worst-case scenario implications could be if you were seen to "abuse" the independent contractor laws?🤔 Great content, (I found your channel through "Regular Guy") and I'll likely reach out for assistance/advice when the time comes.👍

Great video John. I want to start a business in the Philippines. I think I can, but I don't know for sure.

[@JohnSmuloTV]

Any ideas what type of business you want to start?

[@Culleyscrazyjourney]

@JohnSmuloTV I was a farmer here in the USA fou many years before I got into the management of people. I want to go back to farming. Florelyn papa owns the land I really enjoy raising quality game birds and hogs.

@@Culleyscrazyjourney I understand 👍

[@Culleyscrazyjourney]

@@JohnSmuloTV do I have a chance, or is it a pipe dream?

[@JohnSmuloTV]

@culleybronson3183 I don't know anything about the farming business but I think if you can control everything including distributing to those who buy the produce you will have much better profit margins compared to farmers who rely on a middle man to pick up the food and deliver it. My understanding is the middle man makes more than the farmers who do all the work in many cases.
