TNT Reveals New Look and Endorsers

It looks like our friends from Talk N Text has just reinvented themselves, with a fresh new look, logo, tune and a new set of endorsers announced a few weeks ago in Book and Borders, Quezon City. The concept happens to be derived from apps, buttons that you can easily access on your phones which is more modern. I like the way they also changed the font style and how it will look very current.

It's simple, and they're gunning for more relateable content and endorsers by swinging in a new song based on their new line "It's a TROPA thing!". For those who don't know, Talk N Text actually has the BIGGEST subscriber base for Prepaid accounts, it's a step in the right direction to put people that they can easily relate to. This TROPA right now is 30 Million STRONG. So they introduced these guys and gals plus music from Thyro and Yumi who also performed that afternoon.

The new endorsers are Brent, April, Kelly, Ian and Renzo (whom I think is the same guy from UPGRADE the boy band I covered a few days ago). The others are veteran commercial models, pretty pleasing to the eyes too!

Here's the video I made during the launch! Subscribe to Youtube.com/kumagcow please? Thanks!

Thank you so much to TNT and congratulations for having this new look and a new set of endorsers! I saw your new videos too and they're really funny!

Smart and PLDT Unveils New Logo + Eraserheads Reunion Concert

A surprise wasn't a surprise if some of us knew about it, they kept this in the wraps for a few weeks. I've been hearing different humors about what was going to happen on this day but all along, I thought it was just going to be another technological wonder that they have come up with because after all, they're Smart and PLDT. When they came up on stage I couldn't believe they would be starting to change something that's already iconic, the logo that they've been carrying for years. Yes ladies and gentlemen, you are looking at Smart Communications Incorporated and PLDT's new logos. Tons of media, influencers and celebrities were at the Makati Shangri-la to witness it and for me it was already a great night, but they had A LOT up their sleeves. They did a live announcement of it first on their Facebook Page and did it on the PLDT Building along Makati Avenue. Here's how it went down!

It was awesome! We were all in a festive mood after that. Change has come for the BIGGEST mobile network in the country. But they didn't really stop there. The lights were turned off, the stage became a little busier than usual, then I suddenly saw someone come up on stage. My JAW dropped. It was freaking Buddy Zabala.... then after a few seconds, Marcus, then after that, Raymund Marasigan, then my rock god Ely Buendia. I couldn't believe it, my super favorite band is right in front of me, after YEARS of not playing together... it was THE ERASERHEADS! I was about to pass out, while freaking out, and shouting my lungs out because they were there, in the flesh and they did this reunion just for us and SMART!

Now I promised my friends, I promised a lot of people that I wasn't going to be selfish so here's the concert on video. I uploaded this for two days so PLEASE don't complain why I'm singing in the background, because they are like Justin Bieber to the millenials LOL! Some tech bloggers were already looking at me like I'm crazy, I'm very sorry but you don't understand how BIG OF A DEAL this is for me so if you were a little bothered by how I was reacting while they were playing, again I'M SO SORRY!

Thank you so much to SMART for checking A TON on my bucket list. I am still in shock while I'm writing this article. Thank you to Smart and PLDT for making this happen! Congratulations on the new logo and I'm sure this is the start of so much more for the Filipino people!

The Importance of Branding

Branding can make or break a product; and I have been engaged in the industry for several years now. Making each part of a manufactured product feel like something at the back of your hand is one of the key goals in making a successful marketing campaign. This calls for a major information overload, brainstorming and logo designing activities so if they see it visually they would recognize your brand immediately. This has been done by a lot of successful corporations and why wouldn't we be part of that success right?! Making all the effort to have that name recall each time your product is needed indicates success among other things. I would love to do the same to all my sites too. I've had quite a few running now.

With little technical knowhow on design and aesthetics it would be proper to have someone make it for me. I've seen quite a lot and one of them out there like LOGOMOJO.COM that makes these things professionally. Imagine how easy it is to whip up a logo of my own and get all the rest settled in. There are a lot of them out there but those who definitely stick to your memory are the unique and good ones. Branding takes a lot of stuff which also includes having images to represent you and your planned organization. I'm so glad things like these are easier since there are professionals who can do it pretty much every day of the week. Have you branded your sites? What is the single thing that you would want to get your sign recognized with? Have you ever planned something spontaneous like a marketing strategy like this?! Let me know!
