Putting up your own company or your own business isn’t something you can just decide and do overnight. It isn’t a spur-of-the-moment thing. It takes a lot of effort, time, and money to be able to establish your own.
All successful businesses underwent careful planning from competitor scans, market studies, sourcing of supplies, acquisition, creating financial runs and price lists, revisions, research, compliance to government requirements, and a lot more. This is to know if your idea would be feasible and will incur income. You also need to create your own team to handle your operations.
Though some people opt for an easier choice which is franchising. Aside from skipping the planning part which takes a long while and a lot of effort, you’ll just need to prepare the money, fix your documents, and secure land to put it. Compared to staring from scratch, franchising already has been studied and planned out. You’ll just need to check on the right spot on where to put it.
One of the most important factors to consider when putting up a business is its location. Here in the Philippines, the location will most likely be a major indicator if you’ll earn a fortune or if your business will progress. To make all your planning and business matrix work, you first need to find the right spot.
You can have the best and cheapest coffee in the entire city but you can only get a sale if there is a customer. Marketing doesn’t always mean online postings or listings, flyers, commercials, or the usual. Marketing can also be the location itself.
Factors to consider when looking for a location to place your stall is if it is in close proximity to your target market. Say example, if your target market is students and your goal is to give them a place to study quietly then you may need to look for a place near the school that is also a bit far from crowded places.
If your target market are Millenials who drink, you may consider putting up a bar near business districts where colleagues and officemates usually hang out after their jobs and work.
One of the best places to put up your business is in Vista Alabang which is a 1,500-hectare Italian-inspired community located along Daang Hari and MCX.
It is located along Daang Hari road and is connected to the South Luzon Expressway through MCX. You are located within the boundaries of Cavite and Metro Manila. It is near business districts like Alabang, Las Pinas, and is an hour away from Makati and Taguig.
All you need is here. That was the goal of Vista Land when they master-planned the entire estate. Its goal is to cater to all the needs of its visitors and residents. It gives the people living in this place the convenience and luxury living they deserve.
It is in close proximity to schools and universities, it has malls, parks, events places, restaurants, sports centers, and residential communities. The site and environment already serve you free marketing.
Considering the location, your supplies for your products and services will be one less problem for you. Your contractors will not have a hard time searching your location and if an emergency comes and you may need additional stocks, you can always go to the malls nearby.
At the very least, the shortage will never affect your sales. This is one of the best benefits you can get from choosing Vista Alabang for your office or store.
It being still located inside the metro, which will give you flexibility when it comes to the price. The fact that you are in the metro but is near Cavite gives you enough allowance to adjust your price range.
We all know how Italy corresponds to luxury and how Vista Alabang is an Italian-inspired community. With these known facts, you may use this to market your services and goods in a little higher market. Most of the people residing along Daang Hari road are well-off families and individuals who may be your customers.
Aside from this, part of the Vista Alabang is located in Cavite which would mean that you are blanketed to a provincial rate. A provincial rate would lessen your salary and rental expense which would result in a higher income.
Vista Land has already worked its way to establishing the credibility of the whole estate. It has already put up an image where the top priority is the people’s safety and security, warn and pleasant employees, responsible staff, and how Vista Alabang is committed to proving the best leisure and living experience to its visitors.
People from the north and other parts of south Luzon already consider Vista Alabang as a go-to place when they want to spend their leisure time. Friends and families have already agreed to visit Vista Malls when planning meet-ups or dinners instead of visiting Manila.
Now considering these factors, we can already say that Vista Alabang is one of the best places in the Philippines and in Metro Manila to put up your business. There are still a number of parcels of land that are up for sale or rent where you can put up your business. If you opt for a smaller stall, you can always inquire to the Vista Malls.
Vista Land has SOMO Mall which is located along the intersection of Daang Hari and Molino-Paliparan road. It has a selection of homegrown retailers, well-loved global brands, local and international fast-food joints and restaurants, and endless entertainment and leisure options. Aside from the wide variety of companies available, it also is very accessible as it has its own transport hub which gives you a wider range of customers.
Aside from this, Vista Alabang also has Evia Lifestyle Center. This is called the “crown jewel of the South” as it serves its customers the luxury living and world class facilities with its Italian-inspired design. Here you can see some of the major businesses in alabang. It has different sections which gives you indoor park vibes, a walkway of lights, al fresco sections and an interior insipired by the sky ceiling of Piazza.
“Evia serves as urban Alabang’s premiere retail, entertainment and dining destination, housing the country’s top global fashion brands and buzzy-worthy food concepts.”
Always keep in mind that when you decide to make your own business, you need to be well prepared and ensure that you have most of the things planned out. Of course, there will still be challenges and things that you won’t be able to predict but the things that you can control should be aligned to your business’ purpose, and to where it will grow.
