The growing number of competing brands, coupled with an increasing number of critical thinking shoppers, is one of the current challenges marketers and business owners face. According to an official of the Philippine Marketing Association (PMA), knowing one’s consumers is just the beginning. To weather these challenges, it is necessary to go beyond knowing and understanding how they behave as shoppers.
“If you are selling in a retail setting, you must be aware of the behavior of your consumers when they shop. Discerning why consumers buy, what influences them, what hurdles their purchase, where they buy, is vital information in successfully achieving your sales targets,” explains Donald Patrick Lim, Overall Chairperson of the Asian Marketing Conference.
Lim is referring to a discipline called “Shopper Marketing,” which is described as brand-marketing for retail, focusing on consumers as shoppers. It looks at a market as active shoppers rather than passive consumers.
While this trend has been utilized by multi-national companies such as P&G and Wal Mart, convincing key decision-makers in the Asia-Pacific region of its importance remains a challenge. According to Lim, there are some hesitations and misunderstandings of the concept since adopting it would require a reinvention and retooling of earlier applied strategies.
As an organization that aims to enable Filipino marketing professionals to become global marketers, the Philippine Marketing Association holds a yearly National Marketing Conference. But for this year, it has been upgraded to an Asian Marketing Conference entitled “Asiannovation2: Unleash the Asian Marketing Masters” and happening on July 19-20, 2012 at the Rizal Ballroom of Makati Shangri-La.
“This is a great opportunity for Filipino marketers and key decision-makers to gain insights and a better understanding of emerging theories and practices in marketing such as Shopper Marketing. We are glad that Michael Robinson, a Shopper Marketing expert, will be among the speakers,” says Lim.
Robinson has been actively engaged in Shopper Marketing in the Asia Pacific Region, serving as the South East Asia Managing Director and APAC Shopper Marketing Director of Momentum Worldwide.
His business at Momentum Worldwide has produced several customized shopper behavior studies to enable understanding of the roles that various channels play in a consumer’s decision-making process with the goal of producing creative solutions. He co-created Momentum Asia Pacific’s Shopping Lab – a suite of proprietary tools that track shopper behavior to reveal everything from Point-of-Sale (POS) effectiveness to media Return on Investment (ROI).
“There are a lot of challenges to businesses today and we can’t hold ourselves back. We should always be equipped with new knowledge, skills, and tools to achieve successful business strategies and marketing campaigns. There’s still a lot to learn,” advises Lim.
For more information on registration details about “Asiannovation2: Unleash the Asian Marketing Masters,” contact the PMA secretariat at 634-5722, 634-4890, 638-7700, 0927-715-6676, 0917-881-8PMA (672), email asianmasters2012@yahoo.com, or visit www.asianmarketingconference.com.
Roberts AIPMC’s line of high-quality automotive radiators brings the best value—and peace of mind—to vehicle owners.
Cool down. Relax. Never mind if the traffic congestion thickens; never mind if the afternoon heat rises to unbearable temperatures.
As long as the heart of your car’s engine bay is powered by an Evercool radiator, you can breathe easy.
This is the assurance that Roberts Automotive and Industrial Parts Manufacturing Corporation (Roberts AIPMC) provides as it continues to supply Evercool, the Philippines’ leading line of automotive and industrial radiators. Stamped with cutting-edge technology, built to international manufacturing standards, and engineered for maximum cooling efficiency, Evercool radiators are uniquely designed to perform under extreme conditions, thus preventing engines—and tempers—from ever overheating.
Roberts AIPMC launched the first Evercool in 1993, and it has since expanded the product catalog to 350 models of high-quality radiators. Each of these is certified 100 percent leak-free and reflects the excellence of the company’s ISO 9001:2008-certified quality management system, which is strengthened by an international-standard manufacturing process that subjects all the radiators to several rigorous quality control and durability tests: leak tests, jig fit tests, prolonged vibration tests, high loads of pressure tests, and long-distance road tests—all conducted at Roberts AIPMC’s 1,300-sqm. manufacturing plant at the Canlubang Industrial Estate in Cabuyao, Laguna.
It’s a system that has worked since day one, and continues to please the company’s clients in both the local and international markets. The recognition given to the Evercool brand by original equipment manufacturer (OEM) assemblers like Mitsubishi Motors Philippines, Isuzu Philippines, Columbian Motors and Pilipinas Hino —to name a few industry clients—thus comes as no surprise to Roberts AIPMC, which traces its roots to the RGC Group of Companies, the same industrial giant responsible for creating the hugely popular Uratex brand of polyurethane foams and exquisite mattresses.
Of course, the RGC Group of Companies isn’t just about mattresses and radiators; it actually stands as an industrial giant with diversified businesses that represent the plastic, food packaging, textile, metal-engineered products, spring, and lamination industries. But if
there is anything that connects Evercool and Uratex, it is that both brands are known for their credibility, reliability, and affordability: signature qualities that give peace of mind to customers who, whether they’re going to bed or hitting the road, simply seek the best possible value for their money, plus all the simple joys and conveniences that money cannot buy.
Joys like a smooth drive, without car parts faltering, and conveniences such as the extra protection that Evercool provides from radiator leaks, cracked tanks, damaged fans, and squandered pesos. Roberts AIPMC also offers a strong warranty protecting each radiator against defects, as well as a wide range of service solutions—including radiator assembly, special fabrication, supply of core, and “recoring” services—delivered by highly trained professionals whose ultimate goal is to maximize the performance of Evercool, while minimizing all sorts of hassles and worries.
That way, vehicle owners can stay cool. Relax. Not trouble themselves over engines possibly heating up and breaking down amidst hot, harsh environments. Thanks to Evercool radiators, the road from here to the next stop is a smooth and peaceful one. For more about Evercool radiators, visit www.roberts.com.ph.

Pizza and pasta are two Italian food favorites that have been integrated into the Filipino table fare. But unlike our Mediterranean friends, we like our pizza and pasta sweet and with a hint of spice.
3M Pizza has been well known for its ham and cheese pizza with a crispy thin crust that is smothered with sweet, home-style tomato sauce. For over 43 years now, this pizza has made millions of Filipino pizza lovers happy and satisfied. “We all practically grew up or grew old with it,” said Emmanuel Sun, one of the five co-owners of Three M Golden Pizza Corp.,
3M Pizza Pie was founded by Merle B. Hemedes in 1969 together with her three sisters. A regular pizza lover in New York, she thought of reinventing her pizzas by making a unique sauce that caters to the Filipino palate. To make her “pizza pie” more accessible, she put up a small kiosk outside the family’s toy shop business at Araneta Arcade in Quezon City. It became an instant hit since it was the first time Filipinos ever tasted pizza. 3M Pizza, now under new a management, returns to the market in 2006 with aggressive plans to re-establish itself as the leading quick-serve pizza, pasta and snacks in the country by reinventing the brand and upgrading its image. The new owners streamlined the operations and implemented a semi-automated production process. They also established an R&D team composed of culinary chefs and market analysts who helped the company develop new products and new unique Pinoy pizza line.
With a name that is as strong as ever, a recreated brand logo and store look, better and more exciting pizza and pasta offerings, and aggressive marketing efforts, 3M Pizza is taking the business to the next level—franchising.
With the help of a franchising consultant, the company is offering an exciting food business prospect to budding entrepreneurs that is easy to operate and learn yet profitable to own.
Since 1969, 3M Pizza is characterized by its pizza unique sweet and slightly spicy sauce that caters to the Filipino taste and with a thin crispy crust topped by ham and cheddar cheese. Since then, it has expanded to 7 more flavors—top-billed by best-seller Hawaiian Delight with pineapple and ham, garlic and cheese, Pepperoni Feast, Mushroomania, Gardener’s Delight, Beefy Meat Sauce, and 3M Pizza Supreme. All these toppings are offered in mini (7-inch diameter). Medium (10 inches) and mega (13 inches) sized. In addition, the company now also offers lasagna, spaghetti, 3M Pizza Roll and Cheesedog.
The company also plans to offer new toppings inspired by Filipino dishes, one of which is the spicy Bicol Express. The pasta line will also be expanded to include a new spaghetti sauce with hotdog, as well as baked Mac and “palabok.”
The favorite among the set of pizza flavors is the 3MSupreme
A prototype big store is also in the works that will offer meal packages that include crispy and spicy fried chicken, sago’t gulaman drink and even sweet dessert pizza concoctions.

Globe Business’ Fixed Asset Management service allows one to monitor the functioning, operation and maintenance and security of a company’s fixed assets—i.e., freezers, vendo machines, factory machinery, ATMs, computer servers, etc. This way, the productivity of such assets may be determined through their status; output projections may also be made based on the data collected from these assets.
Fixed Asset Management enables one to monitor the condition of fixed assets –whether these are working normally or showing signs of malfunction. One can also track if there are attempts to tamper, sabotage or steal these fixed assets. Alarms and alerts may also be integrated with the monitoring system.
Through Fixed Asset Management, companies minimize machine downtime by undertaking preventive maintenance based on the collected data on the machine’s status. Operating costs due to frequent on-site inspections are reduced—the state of the machine may already be determined through the data obtained remotely. There is also increased protection of off-site machines.
This service is ideal for restaurants and fast food chains; vendo operators; banks; factories and other businesses engaged in manufacturing.
10. Pro-active security.
Globe Business has a Security and Surveillance service that gives owners greater control over securing company sites. Security and Surveillance installs security devices (such as motion and door sensors, panic buttons) that are linked to Globe M2M Management System.
When an intruder breaks in to the secured site for example, the M2M security devices send out alerts through the computer network. This signals the system to deploy an emergency response team to deal with the threat.
The M2M Security and Surveillance system is pro-active and preventive: the security devices are always ready to activate alarms and trigger an emergency response.
All in all, Globe Business’ M2M Solutions optimize the functionality and productivity of a company’s machines/assets. They make business operations less costly yet more efficient. They also provide greater security and control over a company’s mobile and fixed assets.
M2M Solutions are ideal for a wide range of businesses—including the food and/or service industries (restaurants, resorts, hotels, etc.); financial enterprises (banks, pawnshops, etc. ); manufacturing, distribution; practically any business that benefits from machine-to-machine networking and pro-active security.
