Noong nagsimula kami, mostly family, friends, and acquaintances lang yung mga unang customers namin. Nag-aaccept din kami ng delivery orders online. At the same time, nagpo-post na rin ako sa personal Facebook account ko about our food business journey. Kahit simple food videos and small vlogs lang.
Eventually, naisip ko na gumawa ng separate page para magkaroon naman ng sariling identity yung business namin.
So we started posting different videos in our page.
And every time we post, sine-share din namin yung posts namin sa mga local Facebook groups around our community. Hindi lang kasi namin gustong makita ng random people online , gusto rin namin ma-reach yung mga taong malapit sa amin and possible customers talaga.
Pero honestly, nung first month, hindi naman agad malaki yung views. Usually nasa 200–500 views lang yung videos namin, and around 200 followers pa lang kami.
Pero tuloy lang kami sa pag-post and pag-share.
Then after that first month, may isang video na biglang nag-viral. And doon nag-start magbago yung reach ng page namin.
Mas dumami yung nakakakita ng videos, followers started coming in, and eventually, yung videos namin na dati hundreds lang ang views, naging thousands.
Ngayon, may videos na kami na umaabot ng 300K+ views, and even our lower-performing videos usually get around 1K+ views.
Kaya one thing we learned about promoting a small business:
Hindi mo kailangan magsimula with a huge advertising budget.
For us, we started with people we already knew, online delivery, our personal Facebook account, local community groups, and eventually our own business Page. Then we used social media to slowly reach people outside our circle.
Hindi naman every post magiging viral.
Hindi rin every video magiging successful.
Pero kung tumigil kami noong 200–500 views pa lang kami, baka hindi namin nakita kung saan kami dadalhin ng isang random video. 😂
We’re still figuring things out, pero for now, our phone, our page, and our local community have become some of the ways we introduce our food business to more people.
Start with what you have. Use the community around you. Keep showing up. And let people discover your business. 🤎
