Success Quotes From Filipino Entrepreneurs
“Real entrepreneurs know success doesn’t happen to them; they make success happen. It’s about taking control of their future, otherwise, they wont have much of one.”
–JACKLYN LUTANCO-CHUA, Success 101
“Success is always there at the horizon. To get there, know how to chart the surest path, and follow it no matter what happens along the way.”
–RAFFY DAVID, Pilipinas Teleserv
“There is no such thing as overnight success or easy money. If you fail, do not be discouraged; try again. When you do well, do not change your ways. Success is not just good luck: it is a combination of hard work, good credit standing, opportunity, readiness and timing. Success will not last if you do not take care of it.”
–HENRY SY, SM Investments Corp.
“The more bitter the lesson, the greater the future success.”
–LUCIO TAN, Fortune Tobacco Corp.
“Success is not necessarily connections, or cutting corners, or chamba — the three Cs of bad business. Call it trite, but believe me: success can be achieved through hard work, frugality, integrity, responsiveness to change, and most of all, boldness of dream. These have never been easy slogans for me. I have lived by them.”
–JOHN GOKONGWEI JR., Robinsons Department Stores
“Be careful with your overhead. The success of a company depends on keeping your costs down.”
–GEORGE LORENZANA, Office Warehouse Inc.

re: George Lorenzana….wanted a refund from Office Warehouse….according to them they do not do refunds!…wanted a refund because the price posted was different from the price they charged me so I wanted to return the product first thing the following day. Took me forever to talk to everyone from Office Warehouse except George Lorenzana. When I finally threatened to call the mall security and even DTI and demanded I talk to George Lorenzana even when he was in a meeting, they finally said that they will process my refund and that I could go directly to Office Warehouse ATC to get it already. Super poor customer service! THe OIC girl Wowie Guzman did not even offer to help me contact all the people at Office Warehouse…the nerve! When I got my refund, she did not even talk to me or acknowledge me - she shouldn’t be promoted to manager. If keeping overhead low means keeping managers with poor customer relation skills….then that’s not the kind of business that should be franchised.
It was an unfortunate experience Bambi, hope those guys will fix it up…
Office warehouse? Poor service, snobbish and uncaring management, false advertising-lowest price…. thats a hoax! Low overhead? Super shrewd owners (thats their reputation) who are willing to sacrifice customer service.
