Cuban Woman in Arizona Shares How She's Building Her Own Business: "We All Can Find Ways to Make Money"

A Cuban woman living in Arizona has gone viral on TikTok by sharing how she is starting her own cleaning business using the limited resources available to her. In the video, the user @yardenis.alfonso2 aims to inspire others who, like her, are looking for ways to earn an income and achieve their goals, even when circumstances seem unfavorable.

"How can you not know what to do with your life? You don't have a job, don't worry, I'm going to tell you how to get a job," begins the Cuban woman, named Yardenis Alfonso Marrero. Throughout the video, she explains her plan to start a cleaning business with minimal investments, using part of the government assistance she receives.

"All businesses require investments, and now you need to generate," he advises, before explaining how he started by purchasing essential items like sponges, brushes, gloves, and a $58 vacuum cleaner from Walmart. "I haven't bought everything, just what I think I will need for a cleaning to ensure my client is satisfied," he adds.

The Cuban woman emphasizes that the cleaning business is an accessible opportunity for many people. "Everyone needs their house cleaned. Americans don’t like to clean, and we Cubans have to do the cleaning," she notes. She also highlights the importance of a professional appearance, suggesting the purchase of a uniform to make a good impression on clients.

Although she acknowledges that she hasn't been able to purchase everything she needs with the assistance received, she points out that she already has the essentials to start her business. "I'm going to begin distributing cards and looking for clients," she says, encouraging others to follow her example and not give up. "Whatever you desire and set your mind to, you will achieve it."

The video, which has quickly gained attention on social media, is an example of how determination, ingenuity, and sacrifice can create a business opportunity from scratch. Its empowering message resonates with many who find themselves in similar situations, seeking ways to move forward. "The business is there for you to create; you just have to commit to it," it concludes with optimism.

This Cuban shows that, with effort and planning, we can all find a way to generate income and achieve our dreams.
