00:00Now, let's check if you've noticed that your vision is blurry.

00:05It's time to get a check-up and get your eyeglasses.

00:09We're joined by another inspiring story of an optical and eyewear business owner, Isaac Saliedra.

00:17Joining us is Diane Medine-Ilustre. Let's go to Negosya.

00:22I'm so excited to know more about your business. So, can you tell us more about your business story?

00:32The story of our brand is very personal for me.

00:37It started when I was in grade 4, Ms. Diane.

00:40My vision was blurry.

00:42Since my vision was so blurry, I would call my teachers,

00:45and tell them that I'm not good at studying.

00:49But in reality, my vision was blurry.

00:52Glasses are expensive, right?

00:54So, I'm not good at studying.

00:56I always break my glasses.

00:58So, my dad looked for a place to buy frames that are cheaper.

01:02My goal when I was studying, when I wanted to graduate,

01:06I wanted to do business.

01:07So that people like us can experience,

01:12that with an affordable price of 500 pesos, you have a graded eyewear.

01:17And you can see everything clearly that you can experience.

01:22When did this start? How long have you been in the business?

01:25We started online way back in 2014.

01:29I just graduated from PUT.

01:33After I graduated, I worked as a recruitment specialist.

01:36But I felt like that wasn't my calling.

01:39I became a recruitment specialist.

01:41I felt like I needed to bring or make my dream come true.

01:45I wanted to do business.

01:47And now, we have iClinic.

01:49Wow, congratulations.

01:51So, 2014, when you started the business, how much was your capital during that time?

01:56When the business started, if you believe me, it was only 10,000 pesos.

02:0010,000 pesos?

02:01Yes, only 10,000 pesos.

02:02But building this business since 2014, are there any struggles along the way?

02:07When I was 20 years old, I started my business.

02:10I was so skinny.

02:12You're still skinny now, Sir Isaac.

02:14I was so skinny.

02:15And they said that people wouldn't even recognize me.

02:19People wouldn't even set up a meeting with me.

02:21There are still struggles.

02:22Like I mentioned earlier, I'm dyslexic.

02:24Those things put me in a perspective that I need to make it big.

02:28Not because of myself, but because of the vision that I have.

02:31I wanted to prove to them that I can do it.

02:37And luckily, with all of the effort, with all of the people that helped me,

02:41doctors, my employees, my family, we were able to make this big somehow.

02:46In a span of almost 10 years.

02:48We donate glasses to the less fortunate kids.

02:52We want to change their lives.

02:54We also help farmers.

02:57That's our storyline.

02:58We also provide eye supplies to the kids.

03:01What is that one lesson that you would like to share or impart to those people,

03:06like those aspiring entrepreneurs who want to be like you someday?

03:09Maybe you just need to open up your heart.

03:12Because at the end of the day, when people say,

03:14I want to do business, but you won't do it.

03:17Because if you have the motivation that you want to do it, do it.

03:20Because if people just say it, nothing will happen.

03:23Do it.

03:24If you want to do something, do it.

03:26If you think that you can do it, you can do it.

03:30But if you think that you can't do it, you really can't do it.

03:34You should always be positive and think that you can do it.

03:38That's the lesson that the business owner, Isaac Saliendra, showed us.

03:43Another business story and tips that we will meet in our next meeting.

03:48So let's go, let's do business!

03:55Let's do business!
