The study found that majority respondents were sole proprietors, operating for more than five years, engaged in food and beverage business, aiming to improve customer satisfaction, and inaugurated with below P100,000 initial capital. The respondents assessed the following aspects to be “Very Effective”: selecting a suitable human resource, operating under a stable economy, and maintaining business intelligence. There was no significant difference between the respondents’ assessment on the effectiveness of business wealth investment when grouped according to their profile.

In line with this, the regular evaluation process of the competency profile of all employees with university system of employee training and development, PEST and SWOT analysis for informed business portfolio diversification, and development of key performance indicators with reliable business intelligence software were the keys to achieving business goals –the measure of effectiveness.
