Go Negosyo Teen University

Go Negosyo Teen University was held in Bagiuo City last July 24, 2009. There were more than 1,500 students and educators who attended the event. I gave a talk and participated in the forum discussion on the topic of gaming and internet marketing. It was a really exciting and fun activity and I’d like to thank the organizers of Go Negosyo for inviting me as a speaker. You guys are doing a fantastic job in training the youth of today.

GBX

GBX is one of the leading and premiere shoe brands being distributed in their own branches and department stores nationwide. They’ve used traditional media extensively over the past few years – tapping print, billboards, radio, and TV. Recognizing the power of the internet, they’re now coming up with their own digital marketing campaigns.

GBX is being distributed locally by 128 Dream Fountain Inc. and they have Ople & Associates leading their Digital Marketing campaigns.

Bobson

Bobson is one of the biggest locally produced fashion brands in the country. They’ve been here for more than 20 years and they’ve relied heavily on merchandising, billboards, and other forms of traditional media. Their previous endorsers includes the likes of John Lloyd Cruz, Aga Mulach, and Maja Salvador.

In facing the 21st century, they’ve decided to step up their marketing by employing viral and internet marketing strategies to push their brand. Ople & Associates is leading their campaign.

Senator Mar Roxas

In 2008, US President Barrack Obama won the Presidency. He used a lot of non-conventional campaign methods and he was hailed as one of the most internet-savvy candidates in the history of US Politics. Because of this, other politicians picked up this strategy and have made their own social media campaigns.

Senator Mar Roxas was one of the very first candidates who employed social media. Carlo was his consultant in 2008 when he was establishing his digital marketing platforms.
