Siomai King Online Franchise Review: Scam or Legit?

 


Food Business in the New Normal

At this time of COVID-19 pandemic and quarantine, selling food online and home deliveries have become part of the new normal. Restaurants, fast food chains and individuals have joined the bandwagon, not out  of fad, but because of necessity and survival. 

The food business was severely affected; and those in the food cart business were not spared.

Siomai King Becomes Online Franchise King

Like those most into food businesses, the people behind the success of Siomai King needed to reinvent its food cart business. Thus, the Siomai King franchising sculled the online world to keep its business breathing and its franchisees to continue earning. 

Every economy of every state nosedived to its x-axis during this pandemic. To mend the broken economy, every one must continue to spend and earn. JC Worldwide, the company that operates the franchising business, offered a business opportunity to individuals. The idea of Siomai King online franchising is to get as many people involved and active in the new normal economy. 

Is Siomai King Online Franchising Scam or Legit?

A few weeks after the March 15 lockdown, Siomai King online franchise ads and word-of-mouth spawned the social media. Those who'd seen or heard of it were curious, but also weary. Was it legit or just one of those scams?

Let me answer that straightforward. 

Yes, it is legit!

Here's Proof

  • First proof.  I AM. I am because I signed up for it on 6 July 2020, was officially registered on 19 July 2020. I paid for the package in the amount of 15,888 PHP -- a one-time online franchise fee. No monthly fees. No annual fees.
  • Second proof. A snapshot of my dashboard on JC Portal to prove that my registration exists. There you can see my avatar, name, date of registration, date stamp when I snapped the shot and which country I belong to. You can even see my mobile number, which I, being a very private person, hate to disclose it but I had to so you can verify my identity. Once registered, you too will have access to the JC Portal where you can manage your account and view your earnings. 
  • Third proof. Legal entity and presence on the Net. JC Worldwide Franchise Inc is the company that operates the food cart business. JC Premiere Business International Inc is the one that operates the health and wellness business. The company has multiple websites and is present on various social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram. 
  • Fourth proof -- my own online shops which you will find below.

Promo Period

The online franchise promo has a campaign period -- which means that the business opportunity that is being offered currently has expiration. The first business opportunity that JC Worldwide offered was the Siomai King franchise. The current promo is this one. EXTENDED UNTIL 24 AUGUST 2020. In case you missed the promo, you can sign up for updates so that you would get notified once it has been extended or a new opportunity is available. You can submit your email address down below.


This promo package is good only until 17 August 2020. This means that, if you're interested, you have to apply as an online franchisee on or before 17 August 2020. After which, the price may go up or its benefits may change.

Benefits You'll Gain for Being An Online Franchisee

  1. As an online franchisee, you will be entitled to 3 virtual food carts; in other words, 3 online food shops where your customers can place their orders. 
    • Food shop 1: sells Siomai King, Siopao da King, Noodle House, Burger Factory and Potato King
    • Food shop 2: sells Mang Bok's chicken food items
    • Food shop 3: sells Boy Bondat food items (sisig and pares)
  2. For every sale transaction fulfilled, you will receive 15%-30% commission. Commission rate varies depending on which food item was sold.
  3. Aside from 3 online food shops, you will also have JCPremiere online shop that sells health and wellness, personal care, and beauty products from which you can earn 30%--70%.
  4. When promoting your online stores, marketing materials (in digital form) are provided free.
  5. Upon signing up, you will receive JCPremiere health and beauty products worth 5,000PHP.
  6. All sales and delivery are fulfilled and taken care of by the company. You do not have to do any paper or logistics work.
  7. No inventory needed. You don't have to stock food items.
  8. If you prefer to sell the items as ready-to-eat meals; or stock packed items in your own freezer and sell them offline, you may do so. You can purchase the items at distributor's price.

How Does It Work?

  1. Sign up with your sponsor, which is yours truly. You will need this sponsor number: 00304683.
  2. Your application will be processed. This usually takes 2 weeks. In the meantime, in a few days, you will receive your freebies.
  3. Once your franchise account has been established, you will receive your franchise ID number, shop links and other details such as how to access your account dashboard (JC portal), how to order the items as a distributor and as a customer, etc. With the help of your sponsor, he will guide you step by step on how to go about these details. You will also have access to video tutorials and online live presentations where you can personally ask questions.
  4. Start promoting your online stores. For every item sold through your shoplinks, you earn a commission. You can view your weekly commission on the JCPortal.

My JCP and Food Shops Online

To give you an idea of what your future online shops will look like, have a look at my own. Explore the shop and try to order, if you wish.








In addition to your food shops, you will also have the privilege to sell online JCPremiere health and wellness, personal care, and beauty products. Take a look at my JCPremiere online shop. When you apply for a franchise now, you will also have one for you.


The franchise package that I applied for also included a CopperMask online shop. For the current package or ongoing campaign, the CopperMask shop is not included.

What is a ShopLink?

Perhaps, you are wondering that, if there were a thousand franchisees, does it mean that there were also a thousand online shops competing against each other?

The answer is: No. There's actually only one online shop but accessed differently and uniquely per franchisee. This is called the shop link. In the web lingo, it is referred to as an affiliate link -- a unique url assigned specifically to an affiliate. 

Let me illustrate.

The Siomai King online shop is siomaiking.ph -- there's only one. As a franchisee, I was assigned a unique ID, say 00304683. To direct my customers to siomaiking.ph, I must use siomaiking.ph/ordernow/00304683 instead of just siomaiking.ph. That way, all sales made through my shop link will be attributed to my account for the purpose of calculating the commissions I earn.

The same is true with boybondat.ph and mangdoks.ph. If I would promote Boy Bondat, I would give them my personal shop link, which is boybondat.ph/ordernow/00304683. Likewise, for Mang Dok's online shop, I will simply add my unique ID as follows: mangdoks.ph/ordernow/00304683.

How Lucrative This Online Franchising Opportunity Is?

The success of your food online business depends on you. You have given the opportunity; it is up to you to work hard on it. You must continuously promote your online food shops.
