Puregold and KAINdustriya Convention 2018

Thursday, August 30, 2018





I remember the times I was able to shop in Puregold because I was able to only go there twice in my lifetime, no joke. I admit, I am so jealous of the people who frequent their warehouse because their members have lots of perks even if the prices of their products were already dirt cheap. I find the exclusivity appealing and they help businesses grow because they know if the SME’s grow, they will too.






Ivy Piedad of Puregold says “After weeks of challenging eliminations and shows, we’re here to witness the growth of Kaindustriya. We want to tap the food business category aside from Aling Puring which concentrates on Sarisari stores. Now we have 10 who have reached the final cookoff, best of luck and wish you learned in this Kaindustriya competition.


Members of Tindahan Ni Aling Puring have been invited to join The Kaintrepreneur 2018 and from a lot of contestants they chose 10 in this lot, from different places in Luzon, they did the eliminations to choose the best of the best and will pit them in an ultimate cook-off. Different branches were represented by Kaintrepreneur Finalists Jan Kian Mendoza, Jenny Rodriguez, Jirven Canar, Robert Reyes, Maria Teresa Guerero, Jefferson Cruz Mendoza, Joebel Rosal, Carmelita Parulan , Amelia Sunga and Jay Jay Brinoza. They were all mentored by Partners come from Nestle Philippines, CEO Foods Inc, San Miguel Foods Inc., Alaska, Century Pacific Foods, Del Monte Philippines, Monde Nissin, Unilever etc. and they chose their partners during the press conference this afternoon.




They are doing this to encourage a new breed of entrepreneurs and this year’s Kaindustriya Convention will also be holding KAIN U which is an inter school food business competition for college students. They will also do MIX MASTERS which is a flairtending and mixing competition. They will win their own booths and mobile bar if they win. Participants are invited to register until September 7 so they can battle it out on September 11 at Puregold QI Central grounds.


Ken Alfonso, Kahlil Demetrio, Euclid Cesar wil stand as the judges. They are looking for innovators, people who know how to level up tried and tested recipes and not just original ones. So if you are planning to join, make sure you arm yourself with knowledge before you start cooking.

Old Spice Giving Out A Dream Ducati



Had the chance to attend an event in Makati this evening (yesterday that is). I heard the brand Old Spice and immediately said yes to the invite. I’ve been using it since high school as my Dad always leaves it on the table and obviously it smells good, so I never felt so good those days. Now they’ve got a lot, and also giving away something huge this year. Boys, Gents, Men, our dream bike, a limited edition Old Spice Ducati.






If you buy an Old Spice product from July 15-October 31, 2018 and keep the receipt as proof of purchase. Go to oldspiceph.net and register the product you bought. After getting the email confirmation, keep all details and wait for the raffle draw. The more products you buy, the more chances of winning. So if you buy 50 pcs of deodorant, aftershave, shower gels or any of their products, that’s also the number of entries you can get.








On November 5, they will do the official draw. On November 17, they will be doing the public awarding of the Old Spice Ducati Bike. They will be telling you the venue as soon as they confirm it. They are also doing a bike roadshow, have individual brand ambassadors soon to tell you about the great news.



Cage Tiongson of Old Spice says “Old Spice is the manliest grooming product in the planet, it expresses individuality, we thought of bringing that message across and if we didn’t have a car to give out, we thought of DUCATI. Old Spice is red and this is red, it’s freedom, here’s the chance to get a bike of your own through SPICE UP YOU RIDE.



I want it for myself but it’s everyones game!

Meet Acer Swift 5




My first event yesterday was so nice as we got to see live the launch of the new ACER Swift 5. It’s officially the lightest 15 inch notebook in the world, uses the latest 8th Gen Intel Core processor, Full HD, very narrow bezels, 15.6 inch display with an 87.6% screen to body ratio and a built in 4G LTE-A connection so you can do work even on the go.









Other display size options for these notebooks come in  13.3 inch and 14 inch varieties, come in Intel Core i7-8665U and Core i58265U processors, a long 10 hour battery life. It would have been impossible to have this in the past but as soon as design and engineering came in they now have a notebook that’s only 2.2 pounds but still have power and performance you want in a laptop computer that delivers fast and productivity.





They also introduced STARVR ONE that has natural of view, very near reality technology VR headset. They also have introduced the ACER OJO 500 which is the world’s first detachable headset so it would be hygienic, easy to clean and have amazing sound quality.




Aside from that, the Aspire z24 is an all in one machine. It’s borderless, edge to edge glass that is stunning and would be able yo accept voice commands and people can call them minimal in effort, maximum in convenience.


The Aspire 7 has an i7 processor, Radeon RXVEGAM Graphics, doesn’t need cooling, 1.5kg metal design and 4k narrow bezel display. ACER has also introduced the lightest in the past and they have found even better materials to make it lighter, thinner - but tougher. That’s the Swift 5. The secret? The materials. This has minimized the weight for over 35%, kept it at 15 inch in size. They also did the best thing to show that, lifting it up with one hand while on demo.


Gamer? Content creator? This might be the best notebook for you, check out leading computer shops and tech stores if you wish to have the latest from ACER!

Tuesday, August 28, 2018





Had lunch with the folks from OMNI Channel Marketing Consultancy Inc, a business that does trad and digital marketing, ICT, franchising, leasing and activation activities in the country. They’ve been doing this with people who have spent 25 years in the industry, so if you’re a brand who wants people who know the business inside out, they’re a good candidate.






They also are the organizers of CEITEX (Consumer Electronics and Information Technology Expo) which will be held at the SMX Convention Center this November 2-4, 2018. They’ve been doing this to also partner with franchise businesses so they could sell their franchise too. Aside from that, they do this through GadFetcher, a pop up mobile phone, repair and accessory shop that does three simple things, fetch, send and repair.





Their vision is to help clients and make growth inevitable, this as their top tier service. As OMNI’s Marketing Executives says “We want to give the best for their business, resolve issues fast, to make each transaction a long term and effective business relationship. We make use of our vast network and key experts in the field.”
