Sinimulan ng chef na si Dominique Abad na taga-Ballarat, regional Victoria ang sideline na binuo kasama ang kanyang dalawang kaibigan, bagay na nasimulan matapos silang mag-cater sa isang Filipino salo-salo.


Key Points

  • Ayon sa Australian Taxation Office (ATO), umaabot ng isang milyon ang may sideline o raket ngayon.
  • Bukod sa market research, sinusubukan ni Abad na magkaroon ng taste-testing mga mga bago sa kanilang menu bilang diskarte sa pag-tugon sa kinakailangan ng kliyente o merkado.
  • Nagsimula ang kanyang sideline na 'Kumusta Bai,' matapos makabuo ng $600, na pinagghati-hatian nilang mga business partners na sya ring ginamit nila para mag-cater sa Filipino-Australian Senior Citizens of Victoria, Inc. (FASCOVI) na siyang naging hudyat ng simula ng negosyo.
Start what you love and let your purpose guide you. Don't wait for everything to be perfect. Challenges will come, but they will shape your growth.
