Answer 2

You could give the P5000 to your relatives in the form of a loan.Chances are that you will never see it again so Id just kiss that idea goodbye. Or you could start selling Charcoal and make a small amount of kwarta. Then you could buy a Hollow Block mold and start making Hollow Blocks by hand. You could sell fish in the mountains where there are none.
Chances are you wont make much on starting out with P5000 but if thats all you got you gotta give it a shot. Just remember the rules of business starting out with this small amount. Put all the money you make back into the business.Don't give out any credit run a cash only business! Don't expect to make much the first 3 years expand your business and make it larger ever chance you get. Then in the 3-5th year you should be making enough to pay yourself a salery.Then start saving some Kwarta think of your future most filipino's cannot do this as it is a day to day survial and in most cases it takes the whole family unit to survive.

Hope this helps in your search for a P5000 Business

Answer 3

After 30 years in the military I spent 10 years running my own successful business. While I think the Philippines is a great place to start a business, 5,000 P would not even get you started. That is what I spend on utilities each month.
Most Pinoys are very hard working and are driven by a strong desire to better their life. Sadly few understand how to start and run a successful business. You are not going to get rich opening another Sari Sari store.

Answer 4

It's a good start for cellhphone load retailing. Invest P2500.00 on smart eload and P2500.00 on globe autoload. Globe give a fix 13% discounts and smart don't give a fix discount but your income will be more than 13%. Believe me, i have been on this business for 2 years now...:)

Answer 5

P5000 is not much, i guess what you can do is buy items in divisoria and sell them to friends or officemates, then if you've increased your capital that's when you can really invest in a bigger kind of business.

I normally go to divisoria and get shirt imitations for 190- wholesale)and sell them in the office for 300-400. its not much of an income but its something i enjoy doing (shopping)

I also get new items that are sold in malls( i buy them in wholesale and sell them to officemates. hehehe...

Answer 6

not much... maybe sell shakes or buy fashionable and hard to find but reasonable priced goods and selll to office mates and neighborhood... sell your baked goodies after offering free taste get their orders.. eload not a bad idea but too many competition around... or join a home based global busines - check www.reliv.com and check the company and the business opportunity... get a copy of Success from Home MAgazine and read how it will work for you. if you are interested, contact reliv office in makati and ask for my contact details - sandra yu

Answer 7

whats your hobby? try doing things which you enjoy doing. With 5,000 you can do a lot of stuffs. If you enjoy cooking then go sell your products in your neighborhood and friends (barbecue, or cookies is a good idea). If you enjoy crafts then go make fashion accesories- you can buy materials at divisoria. Just think of your hobby and make money out of it.

Answer 8

P5000 doesn't amount to much, actually. But with that amount, you can probably start a fishball stand or a barbeque stand. Just make sure you sell quek-quek, since that's often a blast with the high schoolers! :D

Answer 9

A very very small business that you can run from your house. That amount is not even enough to buy a cellular phone unit. Or you can buy a second hand unit with that money.

Answer 10

Ukay-ukay around 2 to 3 bundles for starters depending on class with additional clothes and other items you can no longer use solicited or handed down by friends and relatives with their approval to be sold....
