From Inggit to Profit: How to Start Your Own Ecom Brand

Gusto mo na bang umpisahan ‘yung sarili mo’ng e-commerce business kaso hindi mo alam kung saan ka magsisimula? This episode is for you, because Airon and Jungie will give you a glimpse of what happens inside TECLA, The E-Commerce Launchpad, with the help of students Mel and Ruel Balverde, the Founders of G-Up Digital Marketing Solutions.

Mel and Ruel’s e-commerce journey started with his desire to bring her home after working as an OFW in Singapore for nine years. From LDR to now being Co-Founders of their business, SANA ALL, ‘di ba?

Pero, teka lang. Nasaan pala ‘yung birthday cake ni Ruel? Nakatulong ba talaga ‘yung TECLA sa business nila kahit two years na silang nasa Gen Merch E-Com industry? What is ethical e-commerce and lahat ba ginagawa ‘to? Ano’ng sinabi ni Jungie sa TECLA na tinamaan si Ruel about running an e-com business? Sino ba talaga ang mas magaling: Si Airon o si Jungie?
