Get a part time job in any F&B outlet. Start from either waiter or cashier. From there, find your way to learn from shop floor to kitchen, beverage,cashier & people management. In F&B line, kitchen(the chef) is the most important that you should be focus on.

IMHO, you can try Burmese and sabah & sarawak. These people are hardworking and has no problem in communicate. Though vietnamese can consider but they have problem communicate.

It depends on what you recruit them for purpose. For me, I dont classify the CHEAP to recruit a good labour. I wiling to pay if they serve their job good. Perhaps you should try out sabah & sarawak workers. I have a lot business & contractors friends that recruit this people (From 1k-2k range). They are strong and hardworking. Just treat them as a HUMAN & part of your family in your company. I was suprise when a business friend of mine told me he gave his worker(sabahan) which work for 6 years at salary 2k.

You can always start One Man Show & not neccesary need an office lot to start a business. The key is are you READY and KNOW HOW to start a business. Always remember to start small & growth big. Before you start a business, ask yourself do you know how to CREATE & CLOSE a SALES. Dont ever RUSH into business. IN fact business takes longer time to generate SEEDS which people think (3-6months) is sufficient, IS NOT....It can be YEARS. You must be very competent on how to manage your CAPITAL.

People always think to start a business, i MUST have a company registered, a shop lot, a website, and all this already becomes a burden to them when they havent capable to generate their first CENTS for their business. You can think of above when you see your business at a potential stage of growth. Dont be SILLY, you have a office shop lot, you will get SALES.

Just my share of tought.

I come across there is agent that offering one stop solution represent multi delivery principal. If you can offer special price rather end users direct enquiry to principal, then why not...
