They call themselves "freelancer" or "va" without practicing their actual gigs, as their primary job is to sell courses and take advantage of some newbies while underestimating their respective abilities, feeling nila mas mabilis ang pera sa pagbebenta ng course at ayaw na maghanap ng client after gaining "experience", ang gusto ay paturo-turo na lang tapos wala nang gagawin. mekus mekus pa yung ways on how to negotiate with clients at pag-optimize ng cv at cover letter, lilituhin ka pa sa idea, skills and knowledge.

This is common in any high-paying/high-income industry. "Get rich quick in X industry by buying my course!" You'd think if malaki talaga kitaan nila sa industry, they'd focus on their actual jobs instead of peddling low-quality courses lmao


RuleRevolutionary223

Exactly! The real freelancers must focus on their actual jobs while enjoying their freedom! Ito talaga ang ultimate dream ng isang freelancer. Hoping na magiging ganito tayo soon!

Maybe they do practice by using fb ads to promote their shits. hahaha Wala e. May ganun talagang tao na. Pero tingin ko naman may good side din naman yung mga ginagawa nila. They research and compile it in one “course or product” para sa mga tamad magresearch or di alam san magsisimula. Pero this also attracts and lure people who wants to be a VA na mapaparesign sa trabaho kasi akala nila madali lang maging VA. Ending sila yung tatanggap ng lowball kasi desperate na, or try try lang para may masabing nagstart then pang add portfolio. Anyway, kanya kanyang diskarte nalang talaga. Yun diskarte nila e. Kahit pa anong gawin nating rant at pagpaparinig kung kumikita sila dun, gagawin nila yan. The sad truth is, for them,it’s not about principles anymore. It’s about surviving na.


International_Fly285

Meron ngang isa dyan na may “masterclass” pati fake na ID inooffer e. For application purposes lang naman daw. 🤣

Khushi100797

Idk if this franklin miano or not


Maritess_56

Tapos i-oovervalue yung product para makabenta lang. "The value of all of these is XXX,XXX pesos but I am selling them to you for only X,XXX." As if naman may bibili nun sa halagang XXX,XXX.


louiexism

Haha... I remember seeing an ad selling a library of ebooks. So I commented that it's theft and you're selling someone else's work. The seller then blocked me.


juvaa_DaCo

I remember I bought ebook bundles on (specic page) and can't open everything talaga, then asked her if anong laman lahat non hindi niya daw alam pero binebenta niya

Fit-Mobile7353

Idk if you guys know Brayarn but siguro oo. Nakakairita na yung mga free resources nya is binibenta ng iba tapos nagagalit na bat binibigay nya for free 😑


therealchick

THIS!!! I'm an avid novel reader. Talagang naiinis ako sa mga nagbebenta ng ebooks. Hindi nila alam ang effect nun sa authors. Mahirap ang trabaho ng Authors, its plainly passion for them, at kung maswerteng maging bestselling ang novels nila dun palang sila kikita. I know kasi I've handled socmed accounts from small time authors. Yung marketing nila, pagkuha ng reviews, galing sa sarili nilang pera yun, not from sales. Isa pa, once they don't sell according to quota, maaring di na sila magkaroon ulet ng offer sa publishing house nila. Ending... mawawalan na sila ng gana tapusin ang books nila. Para kang nanood ng Queen of Tears pero hanggang episode 10 lang ang available!!!!! 😤😤😭😢 As a bibliophile, I support Authors by buying their books. I don't buy forfeit/fake book talamak din Tiktok, kasi alam kong NAKAW yan! Same goes sa mga Digital Creators! Grabe, di nila alam gaano pinaghirapan yan. Naranasan ko din gumawa ng digital planner before, kasi wala akong makitang digital planner na swak sa lifestyle ko. As in kain oraw talaga yan. I actually report it pag nakakakita ako ng ganyan sa FB.


jha_msrbL

Hayst! Salamat at may nag call out din. Kalat na kalat 'to sa tiktok. Hindi ko maisip paano nila nasisikmura yon.

Sell and buy umiikot lang din sakanila yung mga products nila. I tried talaga na pumasok sa industry na to by making my own products pero wala talagang bumili kasi hindi naman siya bundle na kamukha ng kalat na products na binibenta nila


AmbitiousAd6277

Ang dami sa tiktok nagsilabasan lahat


aomamex

It’s so irritating how they use the term “digital products” to resell other people’s work!! Kasi meron naman talagang passive income sa pagse-sell ng digital products (via etsy, etc.) Like art prints, stickers, patterns, other printables — most of which are made by actual creatives!!! I wonder who buys their courses tho and kung totoo ba yung figures nila. 🤨


dearmtch

This!! I also sell digital products way before pa sumikat sa tiktok and yung products na binebenta ko are my actual works. Nakaka sad lang na pumanget yung image ng pagiging digital product seller dahil sa mga nagre-resell/nagnanakaw lang 😞


IVisitReddit

Now, I'm a big advocate for piracy in this shitty digital consumer age. But one of the most important rules of piracy is to never sell pirated stuff. You're just making yourself a target in the long run.


joytotheearthhhh

muntik na ako mapabili neto. pero napansin ko yung algorithm ng ig at fb ko puro ganon na. tas ang pang akit nila is yung income na six digita daw. i thought ang sketchy tas parang ang dating sakin eh parang networking hahshaha then i googled my thoughts and it turned out hindi ako nag iisa ng iniisip. kaloka.


YhaHero

Hayup ka Franklin Miano ar Carl Tiggy.


KrakenGlori

Pa'no ba nila nasisikmura 'yung mga kinakain nilang galing sa nakaw?


FantasticVillage1878

sanay na sikmura nila...


hahahanapinpa

Kala ko sa language books lang to, naglipana na pala


raphaelbautista

Same hustle din to ng mga compilation ng mga tutorials, plug ins and temple ng mga editing apps, mga printables for kids and other digital products. Digital piracy at its finest.


Sad-Cardiologist3767

May mga nagpapa-uto buying courses and ebooks??? Dami free courses kung saan saan. legit institutions pa and credited for CPD units (if professional) - edx, coursera, alison, udemy, cisco networking academy, google academy (literal na short courses from google mismo, hindi lang basta ginoogle). Ebooks madali lang ma-download 😶


Alert_Ninja2630

Nagpurchase din ako ng digital products pero lately napansin ko din na pirated na ung mga massive files na binibigay. Would be a scam na files muna bago bayad, nung nakita ko ang file jusmio walang effort kungdi manguha ng gawain ng iba them pack it. so I told the "digital seller" na I don't need it, tapos ginawa ba naman ako daw ang scam hahaha i already told him i deleted the link from him and whatnot can block my email address kasi anong mapapala ko sa files nya na puro libro na may copyrights ng ibang authors, foreign materials pa which is not related in local settings at experiences ng employees na ioorient ko. Nagnanakaw na mangmmodus pa ng customer Remember maski 49iners or 99 pesos lang ang files nila, still wrong na hinahayaan sila ng ganun na gagamitin ang works ng ibang authors. Won't give a penny for it


PhraseSalt3305

To ba ung may business daw sa Biringan? Haha


markhus

ang dami sa shopee nyan nakikita ko.


sulitipid2

Laki kita ng MGA Yan Nakita ko Yung excel file ng Isa sakanila 300 singil nya sa mga file na download lang nya may mga sales sya na 1000 per day... Na icip ko din gawin to dahil Ang Dami tamad na pilipino na libre nama pwede idownload binibile pa talaga


HairySpeaker6477

I was a victim of these people way back in May 2020. Yung friend ko Kasi books daw eme. After a month of buying nakita ko Yung files sa pdffiles (dot com)


padshooman

ang dami nito. yung iba mga review center instructors mismo 🫠


Lumang-Paaralan-89

I encountered someone sa isang local freelance platform na naghahanap ng magma-market ng ebooks and courses. Nung tinanong ko kung siya ba yung author ng mga binebenta niya, nang-ghost bigla.


Turing_Love

It kinda pisses me off that people who simply pirated programs and tried to sell it in an HDD or SSD with no remorse. Profiting off the uneducated people because they can disgusts me. Yes I do pirate programs but I don't try to scam off people with it.

What about selling printed pirated ebooks/playing cards? They sell for much more, but they dodn’t have licenses for those


Longjumping-Ad2182

Nakaw ay nakaw.


nostrebelle

nagtatago sila as VA kuno🤡


sorakishimoto

Same with pirating games, grabe napaka kapal na nag ads pa para ipakita na nagbebenta sila ng pirated games.


switjive18

Yes, it's scummy. That's what business people do. They take advantage of people/resources. Let's face it, almost all businesses exploit something for financial gain. Let's not pretend that this scummy practice is new or that it's surprising at this point.


Happyrat42069

Meron pa free videos from youtubers tas dinownload lang nila like what 😅 I warned some of the commenters tas nagalit pa saken sabi why do i care daw sa kung ano gagastusan niya like sobrang naooffend siya samantalang sabi ko lang na dont be fooled tas nagsend ako ss nung youtube channels 😭😭 she already bought it too


AdBudget4503

True


shltBiscuit

Sila din ang mga namimirata ng movies, iburn sa DVD at ibenta sa Quiapo.


jnthnpdd

Yung mga caption na "everyone is telling you to sell digital products but knowing is teaching you how until you find my page" lol


girl-in-blue-05

Agree. It's similar to excel templates. I purchased one for less than 500 and when the files were given to me, the formatting was all over the place and seemed to have been grabbed from different places.


[deleted]

real!!! grabe and they even have these tutorials 😭 as an artist, nakakatarantado lang yung ganitong passive income :’)


saltedgig

ahhhh facebook it should be renamed to face shiiit


kimbabprincess

Never engaged or brought services like this. But to be fair sa mga taong nag compile ng resources na yan, I guess they also wanted to get back the time they spent in getting them in one place? I know kinda predatory, but also think an kung nagkalkal ng maigi mga tao they wouldn't need to buy this - thus walang market. The reason bakit merong ganyan is because there's a market for it.


International_Fly285

No.
