David Licauco also shared the biggest challenge he faces as a businessman — finding the right people to help manage his ventures. “Ito actually ‘yung pain point ko sa pagnenegosyo, especially now na ‘yung showbiz ko is up there and business ko is going up also. Before kasi, I was used to doing everything, halos lahat. Ako [sa] marketing, operations, finance, kausap ng suppliers, purchasing,” he explained.

“But now of course I’m in this macro state na I have to start delegating and it’s been a problem of mine kasi medyo perfectionist ako. I tend to micromanage, so what I’m trying to learn is become a leader,” David added.

Despite the challenges, David remains determined to succeed both in showbiz and business, proving that hard work and strategic management can lead to remarkable success.
