“Some of us are building from scratch. No rich parents, no connections, no assistance, no excuses. Just pure hard work, consistency, burning desire and focus.“
I graduated from college and earned my bachelor's degree in Business Administration by being a working student. I had to stay up late at night and wake up early to attend my morning classes. My desire to finish college was so strong because I knew that education is my door towards a better life. I was born in a low-income family and I learned so much by going through hardships that come with poverty.
Fast forward to 2016, I was able to build my own business, a partnership with my husband. We created Big and Easy Lemonade, A kiosk-type mall-based concept business. With discipline and consistency, we built the system so efficiently that in the span of 3 years, we were able to expand to 7 mall locations throughout the Philippines.
In 2020, when Covid-19 hit the whole world, The Philippine government imposed lockdowns. This has forced us to shut down all our operations. Malls are allowed to remain open but on essential business only and at 30% maximum capacity.
This turn of events opened the world of freelancing for me. I had to think of how to cope with this change, especially on having one of our sources of income being cut off. I started from the bottom again, being a general VA to Amazon sellers and other clients in different niches. But particularly, Amazon PPC has always intrigued me. I applied for jobs specifically as an Amazon PPC VA. I have worked with clients who are 5-7 figure sellers on Amazon.
In the next 2-5 years, I see myself growing, learning, and having more clients as an Amazon PPC Specialist. This niche is challenging and that is the main reason why I love what I do.

I have always felt that personal learning and adaptation is a continuous life process, and I am always looking to create a better version of myself. In this time of the COVID-19 pandemic, I feel virtual/ home-based opportunities will be more in demand, and an exceptional virtual assistant will be of great value as this new trend continues to become our modern and efficient way of business and living.
