Hindi Ito Kwentong Barbero

I’d like to share a very short video that tells a story of persistence, determination, and patience.

This 1-minute video of a barber who lost everything in a fire and eventually rose from the ashes (no pun intended) truly is inspirational.

It just goes to prove that anyone who has the right mindset, will power and creativity can truly make great things possible.

I hope this inspiring Globe video moves you to do great things as well.

Doing One’s Fair Share

Globe launched the My Fair Share eco-bag in 2012 which supported the livelihood of women communities who produced them. The eco-bags, made from recycled and bio-degradable materials, promoted conscientious consumerism among Globe employees, subscribers, and stakeholders. “My Fair Share eco-bags not only supported fair trade and enriched the lives of marginalized communities, but it also reinforced the advocacy of caring for our environment by using less plastic,” shared Rob I. Nazal, Globe Head for Corporate Social Responsibility.

This year, Globe collaborated with Team Manila Graphic Design Studio on three new My Fair Share eco-bag designs for 2013. Produced by partner Gifts & Graces’ beneficiary communities, the eco-bags supports more communities this year: Kaibhan Women’s Association, Pamana Pag-asa Boni Producers Cooperative and Caritas Manila.

Survey Says…

There is an old saying that goes, “Words can only get you so far”… This phrase perhaps is most evident when you look at the competition of mobile networks here in the Philippines.  Networks fight tooth and nail for each and every potential subscriber… either to retain them, or entice them to switch to their “better” service.

Not only is competition stiff… sometimes, one network will opt to use dirty tactics and black propaganda to lure customers from the rival network.  But do these tactics really work?  From what I gather (and based on experience)… no matter how much BS you put out to hype up your own service, people aren’t fooled too easily – they actually see through all the lies and deception.  Customers have finally learned to be more discerning.
