Abstract This research paper explores the lived experiences of recipients of Republic Act 9178, also known as the Barangay Micro Business Enterprise (BMBE) Law, in the implementation of BMBE programs. The study focuses on understanding the benefits and challenges faced by micro-entrepreneurs who availed of the BMBE program. The research used a phenomenological approach to gain insight into the participants' experiences [1]. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with 18 BMBE recipients, and secondary data were obtained from various sources [2]. The findings reveal the participants' perspectives on the significance of seizing opportunities, coping with bureaucratic challenges from the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR), utilizing BMBE discounts for business growth, importance of personal knowledge and skills in business operations, the role of marketing assistance in sales growth, and the significance of a positive mental attitude in overcoming challenges [3]. The study highlights the importance of consistent implementation of BMBE programs, the need for information dissemination, and ongoing support for micro-enterprises to foster their growth and contribute to economic development [4].
