An unemployed mother was upset that she can't supply their 1 week daily essentials such as shampoo, toothpaste, and
soap because the price is too high and her budget is limited. Her husband's salary isn't that high and she don't have any sideline
job or income as well. She saw our post in FB and was amazed that she can buy our products individually for as low as 5 pesos.
She know that she will save a lot by purchasing our products and meeting their daily needs at the same time. She went to our
store and purchased some of our products. She asked one of our employees if she can be a reseller. Our employee told her that
she can, and explain to her our terms and conditions. She then agreed to become our reseller and signed the agreement form.
She was so happy that she was able to buy all their daily essentials, save money, and got a sideline income at the same time. She
told her friend about it, post in in other social media platform, and the news was spread like a wildfire. A lot of unemployed
mothers asked to be resellers due to the positive feedback that we received from our clients thus the business was spread
nationwide. We were able to help the unemployed mothers and take care of our mother nature as well.
