How It All Started

Hi, my name is Aimeelyn Fuentes and my online shop is Theona Bella. This is my story.

1992: I still remember carrying my mom's big red shoulder bag from Tupperware. Inside the bag was Tupperware products, two big cans of Fodi Fruit Cocktail, a couple of hot dog packs, sandals or bakya, Avon Products, RTW's and etc. I would walk around the city carrying the heavy bag just to sell them.   I have always been in to selling. I love to talk to people and offer them products that I think will suit them and products that works. I started selling since I was young, I think I was around 7 or 8 years old. That was way back in the 1990s. I love it when I meet new people and they would say, "wow! you're helping your parents at a very young age." Some Chinese people would say appreciatively that it is good training that my parents taught me how to handle business at a very young age. That made me so proud of myself.  But then, puberty strikes. When I was 13 my friends would tease me about selling Avon products at school. I stopped selling it in school but I never stopped selling outside school. But my business fell because my friends and other acquaintances will just get products through IOU. I got bankrupt because I was drowned in debt due to my customers not paying me. I stopped. 

After I graduated from college, I went to work as a call center agent in Cebu. After 2 years, I got pregnant and have to resign to look after my son and later on to assist my elderly parents. I then decided to open an online shop, hence, the THEONA BELLA. But due to insecurities, lack of financial capability, and maybe postpartum also, I do not want other people to know that it was me behind the theona bella shop.

Anyhow, fast forward to now. I am slowly getting back-up and picking my shattered pieces and coming out of the box where I prisoned myself blaming anything and everything that happened to me since I finished studying. 

Well, there's nothing I can do about my past but I know I can change my future. So, here I am getting back up and start fighting for myself and for my son's future. I hope you'll support me on this journey. More positive vibes and fewer negativities! God bless us all! :)
