It’s the beginning to start a new journey after graduation, most people will get a job that related to the subject they took in the university. To start up a business will need a lot of courage and effort!
A netizen took social media to share the journey he went through to start up his business. You probably will jaw-drop looking at how much he is earning at his age of 23. He is making a net income of RM40,000 in a month!
The post read :
I’m 23-year-old, graduated from UTAR Kampar last year. Last year March, when MCO started, i invested all the money (RM5000) from my part-time job into the share market for TOP Glove. I make around RM10,000 on July. Then i started my job in Kuala Lumpur.
I worked as a FullStack Developer in Start Up company. I was in the Dean list during my uni days. So, the company is paying me RM4,600.
Because it’s a Start Up company, therefore workloadwas heavy. Moreover, i will need to attend online course to improvise my Technical Skill and reading a lot of related materials. To be honest, it’s quite stressful. I realised no matter how high is your initial pay, as long as you are an employee, you are spending your time and effort to make your bosses even more successful.
Hence, i decided to quit my job after 3 months later. Start to focus on the e-commerce. The termination notice was a month. So i used the period of a month to set up FB page, Shopee and Lazada. I start to think about different strategies, like drop shipping and how to order goods from China to sell locally. Also study the market, looking for sources, forwarders, payment gateway, advertisement, Photoshop, Copy writing and so on. Finally on October when i done serving my notice, i started my journey to be an e-seller.
On November, i spend RM15K to buy medical grade gloves, Face shield, face mask and Oximeter to start selling online. After a month of selling, deducted all the costs, my net profit was around RM5,000. Although, it’s also a heavy work load compare to my previous job as i almost worked 14 hours a day, including weekend, But, to me it’s more practical and satisfying.
Aiming the right business opportunity, i invested all the money i earned into another Category. The 3rd month in operation also the first time in my life earning more than RM10K. I decided to get helping hands, one helping me in the operation, while another one be the customer service.
I don’t have a luxury car yet, still driving the Proton Saga from dad, no property, only a rented Studio to keep all the stock and me living there. Planning to get a Dual Key for staying and investment, trying my best to cut down the unnecessary spending. For now, after deducted pay for the staffs, rental, advertisement and some operational cost, i’m getting a net profit of RM40K (Lazada+Shopee+Carousell). The attached is the revenue for 30 days.
Sharing this post today, maybe some of you might thought me exaggerating or showing off. But that’s not the message i want to deliver. But, what i want to say is ” Crisis may be a turning point”. In grim times like these, if you were laid off by the company or not happy with your current job, why don’t sit back and think what to do or probably another way out.
You can be in financial crunch for a period of time but not all times. You must have certain requirements to your learning, work or life. It’s not necessary to have achievement after your hard work, but without hard work you will never achieve. Only keep improving, the ordinary you can live on an extraordinary life.
▼ A post with all the positive vibes!! ” Me with RM2K salary finished reading your post!”
▼ ” Are you hiring? i want to learn from you!”
▼ Some praised him, saying it’s hard to meet someone like him. But one also pointed out to sell the medical related equipment will need to get approval from several department to ensure the authenticity of the products.
▼ Another netizen aged 24, also started up his own business and sharing the hardship he went through along the journey. He is also not bad, making a gross revenue of RM28K a month.
▼ Another netizen said he aged 23 and spending more than 14 hours including weekend to play games.
▼ ” No big deal earning over 10k, because we are over 10k everyday” I think this netizen talking about the number of cases for Covid-19.
▼ But still one wondering he photoshop ( edited) his income.
▼ One suspecting someone will PM you and sell you some courses later.
▼ Some commented ” If all go start up a business then who is working?”
▼ Beside hard work, you also need some luck. Some at least need a year or 2 to stabilized the business.
▼ ” I agreed with Crisis may be the turning point! Well done, all the best!”
