Five ways to make business less complicated—with help from Globe Business

Tweet

Entrepreneur and Globe Business Ambassador Rose Ann Bautista, being in business for 20 years , has taught about the need to simplify her business, while at the same time sustaining its growth. Rose Ann, FINO Leatherware’s Vice-President for Marketing and Retail Operations, shares some of the things she learned about how to make business simpler, more efficient, and cost-effective.

“FINO Leatherware is into manufacturing and retail. We do the whole nine yards, from finding materials to ordering them, to the actual manufacture at our factory, and then making deliveries to clients and to our retail outlets. We deal with so many suppliers and partners throughout the whole process.”

“We have about a hundred or more employees—80 at our factory and and 20 to 30 at our stores. As you can imagine, we have to deal with so many challenges in our operations. Complications are part of the game. That’s why we had to find a way to operate that helps us prevent, reduce, or cope with these complications,” said Rose Ann.

Being informed, hands-on

According to Rose Ann, she’s “hands-on” not in the sense that she’s physically present at her factory.  Rather, she always keeps herself informed about business operations even on-the-go, thanks to telecoms technology from Globe Business.

“What I do is I always make sure that I know everything about what’s happening in the business, while also having time for myself. This is only possible through the use of my cellphone, the Internet, and my laptop.  It’s only when I’m informed that I can make the right decisions and quickly respond to any problems,” she said.

Communication is vital

Rose Ann says that she would not be able to run the business without a reliable, quick, and convenient means to communicate with clients, suppliers, partners, and employees.

“I’ve been using Globe solutions for a long time. When I started using Globe, they were still offering plans at 100, 200 pesos. So that’s how long I’ve stayed with their services. I wouldn’t be able to run the business effectively without them.

“Since we practically do the entire process, from finding materials to making the products, to distribution and retail, it’s very important to communicate with everyone involved. Otherwise, we’d encounter delays, make errors, be much slower to react,” she said.

Rose Ann says that she depends on her cellphone and mobile Internet connection to ensure smooth operations. “We also use Globe Business TxtConnect to keep in touch with our customers. It’s a very effective means to touch base and connect with them,” she said.

Globe Business TxtConnect is the most effective solution for sending high-volume text messages and SMS blasts to groups of people.  It’s be used to make SMS broadcasts to customers, employees, and a group of business associates.  One can send announcements, advertising, greetings, reminders, and urgent alerts easily, fast, and conveniently because it is Internet based. All it takes is a few keystrokes on the computer to reach a pre-determined group of people. Globe Business TxtConnect also charges much lower rates for text messages, compared to using a cellular phone.

“With so many telecoms products available today, and with the advantages they bring to our business, we really can’t run business without them. I send emails through my cellphone. I receive reports. I can call the factory to give instructions. I can even write letters using the cellphone and mobile Internet,” she said.

Establish culture

According to Rose Ann, many complications can be prevented by establishing a reliable system that everyone can follow.

“In our business operations, we’ve developed and established a system that already runs itself most of the time. Actually, we started out with a system of operations but we’ve already gone beyond that—we’ve leveled up to the point where we can say that we already have a company culture,” she said.

Rose Ann explained that establishing a company culture creates more confidence on the part of the entrepreneur and the employees that everyone is doing things properly. The culture integrates and cements  proven and effective operational procedures, so that they become second nature to everyone.

“When this culture is established, there’s a reduced need for the entrepreneur to be physically present at the office or factory premises. We already know that our people are doing things properly—we need to still monitor them, of course, but no longer in such a tedious, micro fashion,” she said.

Trust and respect, she said, are vital to company culture. “We need to develop mutual trust and respect between employees and owners. As owners, we also need to show them that we are professional, that we are team players, and be good examples to our employees,” she added.

Research

In order to sustain and grow their business, Rosa Ann never stops doing research and getting creative inspiration. She said that her Globe-powered cellular phone is very effective at this.

“I remember years ago when, when I saw a design in a magazine, a design that inspired new ideas, I had to tear off the magazine page. Nowadays, all I need to do is take a photo of the design on my phone. Then I can send the photo to my partners or to the factory.

“This technology helps me do research even when I’m on vacation. I see things that inspire me and I can take photos or type notes in my cellphone. It’s a fun way to do research and doesn’t feel like work at all,” she explained.

Intuition and planning

Rose Ann also notes that there’s really a cycle in business. There are good times and bad and the best way to cope with this cycle is to plan ahead and create back-up, contingency measures.

“I notice that the business changes every ten years. The market also changes. For example, in year 2000, our market shifted. Then in 2011, it shifted again. Today, the fashion and the taste that prevail in the market is younger and funkier. That’s why we have to identify trends and anticipate what the market wants and what it will need.

“To do this, we have to do analysis then forward planning. We also have to have back-up plans that we can quickly implement if things do go exactly as we anticipated at first. When we plan ahead and have back-up measures, we can respond to challenges and changes quickly,” she said.

She also added that long experience in the business sharpens her intuition. “I’ve developed a feel for how things are going. Even when I still don’t have all the facts, I can sense that something’s wrong. This is what I mean when I say that we need to have a feel for the business,” she said.

For Rose Ann, all of these steps are founded on information and communication. “We can only implement these steps if we are informed enough and if we are able to communicate quickly and effectively with our people,” she said.

She also said that new technologies are a big help to sustaining and growing a business. “Right now, for example, we keep track of deliveries using our cellphones. We call each other to know where the deliveries are and what time we can expect them to arrive. But I’ve heard that there’s now a Globe Business service that keeps track of company vehicles and employees using GPS. If our operations grow to the point where this service is needed, then it’s good that we have this option,” she said.

Rose Ann was referring to the Globe Business Fleet Management System. This service uses the GPS technology and the Globe network to keep track of the location of company vehicles. With this service, business owners can regularly keep track of where their vehicles are headed, determine the best routes as well as alternative routes, and also know what time the vehicles arrived at the delivery point.

Run your business easily. As the year comes to a close, Globe Business is doubling its efforts to provide Filipino entrepreneurs operating small and medium businesses or SMBs a complete range of solutions that can help maximize their business operations at lesser cost.

“We see the end of the year as a time for taking stock of how we’ve done our mission of providing ideal solutions to Filipino entrepreneurs. It’s time for us to use hindsight in assessing our performance and for renewing our commitment to make business better for SMBs,” said Manny Escosa, Globe Business Marketing Head for Small and Medium Business Segments.

Escosa adds that 2012 has been a good year for Globe Business as Filipino entrepreneurs have become more aware of the advantages that information technology can bring to their businesses.

“Information and telecoms technology function as an equalizer for SMBs who compete with much larger businesses. For example, a Filipino entrepreneurs would no longer have to set up an office or distribution site overseas to reach Filipinos living overseas."

“All the SMB has to do nowadays is create a website and put it online—it’s not a huge expense to do that, but that already lets the SMB reach customers and clients locally and overseas. But that’s not enough. Information and telecoms technology has to be backed by a reliable network. Without a reliable network, the full power of the technology itself will not be maximized,” explained Escosa.

With Globe Business as the solutions and network provider of SMBs, the latter can level the playing field even with larger competitors. Globe Business provides effective, reliable and affordable solutions that help SMBs operate their business simpler, more efficiently and at less cost.

“There are several areas where Globe Business renews and applies its commitment to SMBs. These areas are those where SMBs telecoms needs are most crucial to the success of their operations and their profitability,” said Escosa.

Globe Business iPhone 5 launch

Tweet

Finally, the iPhone 5 arrived in the Philippines and we got invited to the launch of the launch at the Globe Business showroom in Valero Telepark in Makati. Everyone was excited from the moment we went through the registration at the entrance—after all, the iPhone 5 is the most desired gadget in the market right now; we couldn’t wait any longer to know about its awesome features.

Bloggers and owners of small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) were invited to the launch, which highlighted how the iPhone 5 can help SMBs run their business better, more efficiently, and at less cost.

The bloggers and entrepreneurs--all fans of the iPhone 5--lined up to be among the first in the Philippines to own the device. After completing some preliminary documentation, they were finally issued their very own iPhone 5 units. Since the iPhone 5 uses a Nano SIM, they had to replace their existing SIMS with a Nano version.

The Nano SIM is 40 percent smaller than a micro SIM. The micro SIM itself is already 1/3 smaller than a regular SIM. Friendly and helpful Globe Business staff helped us change our SIMs—and it was great that we were able to keep our old cellphone numbers.

Thankfully, the new iPhone 5 units were ready for use after the turnover process, including SIM change, was done.  Delicious snacks and refreshing beverages were served to guests.

By the way, Globe Business gives iPhone 5 users the option to amortize the cash out for their iPhone 5—a great idea, right? This way, more subscribers can get an iPhone 5 plan more affordably and conveniently.

Globe Business offers the following iPhone 5 plans to interested SMBs:

Business Plus postpaid plans

These plans’ costs and offerings depend on the type of iPhone 5  (iPhone 5, 16GB;  iPhone 5, 32GB; and iPhone 5, 64GB) purchased. Business Plus subscribers have the option to amortize their iPhone 5.

Business Plus plans are customizable depending on the subscriber’s needs. The plans provide unlimited calling within a pre-determined group; bulk or unlimited calling to Globe/TM, landline, or even overseas calls; bulk or unlimited messages to Globe/TM or other networks; and bulk or unlimited mobile Internet connection.

Business Flex postpaid plans

Business Flex plans for the iPhone 5 offer fully consumable voice, texting, and mobile Internet features. Business Flex plan subscribers also have the option to register and use various Unli offers from Globe Business.

Business Flex plans are available in Flex 500, Flex 800, Flex 1200, Flex 1800, Flex 2500 and Flex 3500 packages with their corresponding P500; P800; P1,200; P1,800; P2,500 and P3,500 monthly consumable  subscription fees. Like Business Plus, the iPhone 5 devices acquired through Business Flex may be amortized depending on the type of iPhone device.

Happy Connections : Pinoy Entrepreneurs Can Do More with Globe Business Tools

Tweet

Entrepreneur and Globe Business ambassador Happy Ongpauco-Tiu is passionate about business--but is still happiest as a wife and mother. 

It’s not so easy to fulfil her various roles, however, because of her many responsibilities.  Happy says that she always tries her best to live a balanced life as an entrepreneur, wife, and mother.

“I am a housewife, a mother and an entrepreneur. I wake up in the morning to tend to Renzo before he goes to school.  Soon, I take care of my baby Franchesco too! Then I check paper works for the office.  By lunch time, I try my best to visit my restaurants when I’m not busy at home. 

“After lunch, I meet with my Management team for daily updates, do calls... calls.., calls, and emails to delegate responsibilities to my staff especially for my out-of-town branches. 

“Then in the afternoon I tend to my family and prepare dinner for them.  After dinner, I spend quality time with my Hubby and kids – the highlight of the day that I enjoy the most!” she said.

Restaurateur

Her family founded the iconic Barrio Fiesta restaurant way back in 1958 made Filipinos fall in love with their kare-kare, crispy pata and other dishes. It’s no wonder that when Happy grew up, she naturally went into the food business herself.

She’s helping run their family business, as Corporate Secretary of the Barrio Fiesta Group Middle East operations.

Happy also runs her own food company now—the Happy Concept Group of Companies—after establishing several restaurants including World Topps; Bento Box (American-inspired Japanese food); Hawaiian Bar-B-Que Restaurant (Boracay & Tagaytay); I Luv Backyard BBQ joint in Boracay; and Pamana Restaurant in Tagaytay.

She also has My Happy carts (themed food carts for kiddie parties) and her own Catering Kitchen which features Chef Happy’s homemade specialties.

Happy has even gone into the hotel business with her Boutique Bed & Breakfast in Tagaytay (a 7-bedroom boutique hotel with themed rooms) and the wellness business as well: Slim at Home, a mobile slimming clinic complete with doctors and medical assistants.

But wait. With all of these taking her time and attention, how does she every find time for her family and herself?

HAPPILY HIGH-TECH. Being tech-savvy makes entrepreneur and Globe Business Ambassador Happy Ongpauco-Tiu an effective businesswoman as well as a much beloved wife and mother. According to Happy, her use of telecoms solutions from Globe Business helps her have a balanced life: she can effectively run her business even when she's on-the-go, and she has more free time to be there for her husband and kids

Telecoms technology

In her efforts to balance her many roles, Happy is thankful that she uses modern telecoms technology provided by Globe Business solutions.

“I got my first mobile phone more than 20 years ago,” she says.  “When my Dad got me one, on the very first year Globe offered mobile phones. It felt really great having to be able to communicate with other people just with a gadget.”

Through Globe Business solutions, Happy can instantly reach her employees through call, SMS, landline and vice versa. 

“As an entrepreneur, I am able to fulfil my responsibilities with the efficient assistance of Globe’s product lines,” she said.

Especially since most of her businesses are out of town or abroad, her needs for mobile phone, land line, and the Internet is crucial to running and troubleshooting the day-to-day needs of an enterprise.

While no business will ever succeed without the owner’s hands-on presence, a reliable Internet connection and a clear line on a phone can enable Happy to delegate, manage and connect instantly when the need arises.

Filipino entrepreneurs like Happy, who adopt the newest communications services and technology available to get in touch instantly with personnel on the ground for business, are finding it easier to manage their operations even from afar.

“Especially in the kind of business that I am in, it’s a 24-hour monitoring thing,” she explains. ”You can get calls in the middle of the night to solve or answer queries. I have to say that modern telecoms technology is indispensible in this time & age. To be able to monitor your business from wherever you are at any time of the day is of utmost importance to ensure good service and finished products.” 

More powerful texting

Globe Business Unlitext and Call is the solution to making affordable calls within a given team or staff of associates. It provides discounted rates on Globe Prepaid, Globe Postpaid, and Globe Landline.

Happy also uses Globe Business TxtConnect to maximize the reach of the SMS that she sends. TxtConnect is ideal for high-volume text campaigns and SMS blasts to employees and customers—with just one send, the SMS is broadcast to a large group of recipients. The service is Web-based, so it’s much easier to send compared to regular text messaging or making phone calls.

TxtConnect is charges lower text message rates. Subscribing to TxtConnect can save an entrepreneur as much as 35% in cost compared to a regular text messaging service. TxtConnect subscription plans start at as low as P1500 per month.

As the kind of entrepreneur who takes advantage of the current tech services, Happy has had to learn to use both mobile phones and the Internet to keep track of her many professional commitment.

“Whichever is needed,” she agrees. “I do surf the Internet a lot especially nowadays that it’s almost impossible to transact business without it.”

In a time when modern telecom technology is developing at an exponential rate, each year offers more and more advantages for the Pinoy entrepreneur on the go. Its benefits are essential to bringing forward the success of any activity at a level where things are communicated clearer; problems are solved easier, at a pace that you dictate and doesn’t need to slow down.

Get business done quicker and, like Happy, enjoy time with your family free of the pressures of always having to be there.  

“Globe products and services is my connection not only to my employees but to my clients as well,” smiles Happy. “Globe is definitely a reliable partner in my day-to-day living”
