    Globe myBusiness recently joined the Department of Trade and Industry’s (DTI) Negosyo Fair, through Globe myBusiness Academy, in an effort to support the growing number of Filipino entrepreneurs.

    Globe myBusiness Academy is a free learning session that educates independent business owners on marketing trends, increasing revenues, and discovering new solutions to stay competitive in the digital age.

    “Filipinos are naturally enterprising, so it comes to no surprise that many are opting to open their own business instead of working in an office. Globe myBusiness Academy aims to guide them in creating a plan for success and to turn their passion into profits,” shared senior advisor for Globe myBusiness Derrick Heng.

    The Negosyo Fair is an exhibit that featured different business opportunities entrepreneurs can explore. It also featured talks, business ventures with low capital requirements, franchising opportunities, and tested products and business technologies that are ready for commercialization.

    The learning session covered topics fit for aspiring business owners including operational efficiency, customer service, and expanding market reach from industry experts namely VJ Africa, CEO of Product IO, a startup that aims to enable Micro SMEs in the Philippines and the region to “Survive and Thrive” in this digital-dependent society; Joselito Miguel B. Favis, Account Manager for the Public Sector of Mynt, a FinTech startup wholly-owned by Globe Telecom; and Mejcris Lavarias, Associate Director of AdSpark Local, a Globe subsidiary providing digital and mobile marketing services; and Globe myBusiness Head of Managed Service Grace Anduiza.

    Globe myBusiness also held a panel discussion led by Filipino journalist and “My Puhunan” TV Host Karen Davila, together with Globe myBusiness Ambassador RJ Ledesma of Mercato; DTI Assistant Regional Director Teresita De Lima; Ricca Del Rosario of Half the Price; and Blade Autocenter’s Robertson Sy-Tan, where they discussed tips for small – medium business owners, such as starting businesses with minimal capital, and turning simple everyday problems into big opportunities.

    Attendees were also introduced to a wide suite of innovative apps that are meant to make business easier:

    •  myBusiness Tracker, which allows owners to keep an eye on deliveries and vehicles in real-time
    • myShopkeeper, which lets owners monitor sales and inventory in real-time
    • myBusiness Security Bundle for a CCTV package
    • GSuite and OS365 for easy business and Microsoft Office tools
    • GCash Powerpay, an automated salary disbursement program
    • Fuse, a loan program for business expansions.

    For customer service, guests were introduced to digital solutions such as Auto Appointment Reminder, Queuing Solution, and Canvas, which turns paperwork into digital forms. Meanwhile, for market reach, guests learned about Adblast and Auto SMS Blast solution, which lets them reach more customers through SMS; and myWebsite, a website-building tool.
