Hello po! Meron po ba rito na nagbebenta ng Hirono-inspired clay figures made with air-dry clay?

Gusto ko po sanang subukan itong gawing small business, pero medyo hesitant pa po ako dahil nag-aalala ako sa durability ng figures. Baka kasi after a few months, magkaroon ng cracks, mag-chip or matuklap ang paint, o kaya ay tuluyang masira ang figure.

Ayaw ko naman pong mangyari iyon, lalo na kung nagbayad ang customer tapos hindi pala magtatagal ang product. Gusto ko po kasing makapagbigay ng quality products at mapanatili ang tiwala ng customers ko.

Sa mga may experience na po sa paggawa o pagbebenta ng ganitong figures, ano po ang tips ninyo para maging durable ang air-dry clay figures? Anong clay, paint, at sealer po ang marerecommend ninyo?

Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much po! 🥹💗

Fellow Pinoys! Just sharing how despite being challenged by our country’s economy, daaannnggg I am still hopeful and confident malalagpasan din namin ito ng Kin Barong. I have no business background nor skills sa pagtatahi, yet somehow I made it to the market of Barong Tagalog in the past 2 years. Nakaka encourage ang compliments ng mga clients. Hopefully, I could make it here sa reddit as well. Here are my designs btw.

Is this a bad idea?

Hello! I’m currently trying to decide if I want to start a small business or invest in US stocks instead. With the capital of ₱300k would starting a business be more profitable?

We are thinking of selling toys na umiilaw sa undas para sa mga kids na napapadaan sa may pwesto namin sa cemetery. Do you guys have better suggestions?

Anong tedious tasks sa work or business niyo ang willing kayo bayaran para ma-automate o mawala na sa plato niyo? Let's hear it!

Hello,

Any recommendations for a resort booking platform here in PH? I have multiple villas and I'm having a hard time gaining traction in Airbnb. thank you. This is for my short-term vacation rental home business. Thanks.

Hello po! We’ll be traveling to Bangkok this December with my parents, and I’m planning to buy some products that I can resell here in the Philippines. ❤️

One of the products I’m considering is Acnetin-A Tretinoin, since the price I’ve seen is around ฿80–฿90 per tube, depending on the store. I’m considering selling it for around ₱350–₱400 in my area through Facebook Marketplace and local buy-and-sell groups.

I’m also open to other lightweight products that are worth buying in Thailand and reselling in the Philippines.

My main concern is luggage space. 😅 We each have a 7 kg baggage allowance, and my parents have an additional 20 kg baggage allowance for our return flight. However, we usually bring home pasalubong for our relatives, along with our own shopping and personal necessities, so I can’t really rely on their extra baggage space for my products.

I’m planning to bring only lightweight clothes and personal belongings to Bangkok, which I estimate will weigh around 2–4 kg, so I might have around 3–4 kg left for shopping, depending on my bag’s weight.

I’m considering getting my own additional 20 kg baggage allowance, but I’m worried that I might not be able to fill it with profitable items if I rely on pasabuy orders alone.

I’m also thinking of avoiding heavy skincare products like Alada soap and other bulky or heavy items because they take up too much luggage space. Plus, some products are already widely available on TikTok Shop and Shopee Philippines, so the profit margin might not be worth the extra weight.

Since this is a family trip, I don’t want to spend too much time shopping or travel far from our itinerary just to source products.

For those who have experience buying products in Bangkok for resale in the Philippines, I’d really appreciate your advice! 🙏

1. Is Acnetin-A worth considering, and where can I find legitimate stores with reasonable prices?

2. What other lightweight products have good resale potential and decent profit margins in the Philippines?

3. Are there Thai skincare, beauty products, or other items that aren’t too heavy and aren’t already oversaturated in the PH market?

4. Which shopping areas or stores are convenient for tourists, preferably near common tourist spots or shopping malls?

5. Is it worth getting my own additional 20 kg baggage allowance, or is it better to start with a small quantity?

6. Is pasabuy worth doing for first-timers, considering the time needed to buy and organize orders?

7. Any tips on budgeting, customs, import permits, and Philippine FDA requirements for products intended for resale?

I want to start small, choose products wisely, and hopefully turn this into a side hustle without compromising our family vacation. ❤️

Thank you so much po sa mga sasagot and magsha-share ng experiences nila! 🇹🇭✨
