  • Shopee Strengthens Supports for Brands to Reach Millions of Online Customers with 10.10 Brands Festival

    Shopee Strengthens Supports for Brands to Reach Millions of Online Customers with 10.10 Brands Festival

    On October 10, shoppers can enjoy free shipping with no minimum spend, big discounts, and amazing deals from leading brands.

    Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, continues its strong support for brands with the 10.10 Brands Festival. As more businesses explore the potential of e-commerce during the pandemic, Shopee is committed to providing the optimal environment to help brands of all sizes launch, scale, and succeed online.

    Three leading brands share how they utilize Shopee’s robust suite of marketing and operational solutions, including in-app features and big campaigns to accelerate their business growth online.

    Unilever realized the potential of Shopee’s in-app features with its Beauty That Cares Campaign last August. Through ShopeeLive, Unilever spread awareness for its advocacy to help small and local businesses affected by the pandemic. Unilever also uses other Shopee in-app features like Flash Deals and marketing solutions to reach a wider audience and build a seamless and shopping experience for their consumers.

    Jackie Mañago, Digital Commerce Marketing Manager at Unilever, said, “With the recent health crisis, we saw how consumer priorities have shifted and had to re-think the brand experience and find new ways to engage consumers. Thanks to our solid partnership with Shopee, we quickly adapted, strengthened our presence, and continuously served our shoppers amidst the pandemic.”

    Despite the limitation of selling channels during the pandemic, Realme routed its focus on e-commerce and gave more importance to offering affordable devices for communication, e-schooling, and work at home with Shopee. Realme was also able to amplify its exposure and increase its sales by using Shopee’s marketing services like ShopeeLive, banners, and campaigns.

    Eason de Guzman, Marketing Lead at Realme Philippines, said, “Through ShopeeLive, banners, and the famous Gadget Zone, we have been able to maximize our exposure and provide the best offers in our exclusive launches. Their platform creates a positive and inviting atmosphere, encouraging brands to participate in their campaigns. Since our partnership with Shopee began, we have seen stronger sales, whether it’s a launch or sustaining.”

    Since the start of the quarantine period last March, Alaska has been working closely with Shopee to boost their brand presence online. Alaska took advantage of Shopee’s highly visible in-app spots such as the flash deals section, marketing tools, and big campaigns to promote their products. With Shopee, Alaska saw 10x growth compared to last year.

    Marx Benedict So, Digital E-Commerce Manager for Alaska Milk Corporation, said, “Data and media are the lifelines of e-commerce. Thanks to Shopee, we can check which of our ads and products perform well using the marketing tool. Segment buys also play a crucial role, especially if there will be an upcoming campaign as these can increase awareness and convert consumers who are not yet exposed to the brand.”

    Martin Yu, Associate Director at Shopee Philippines, said, “At Shopee, brands form the backbone of our business. We have built a strong record of helping brands overcome business challenges and shift to online seamlessly with our strong ecosystem of solutions. We launched the 10.10 Brands Festival, the region’s biggest online shopping event for brands, to provide brands the needed visibility to further scale their business online. We have also expanded our offerings to help our brand partners find success online, and we will continue to do so to support and empower brands to capture immense growth opportunities in the Philippines.”

  • OPPO Brand Day Exclusive Deal on Shopee for Every Occasion

    OPPO Brand Day Exclusive Deal on Shopee for Every Occasion

    The specifications and price of an innovative smartphone will result a persuasive influence with a person or investor to buy it either for personal or business use for every occasion especially if it’s Originally Patented Phone Optimum (OPPO). Well, I created the acronym while reading the specifications and overview of one of the products of OPPO.

    In my opinion, it’s important to understand or review the specifications of a smartphone such as the storage, video stability, camera, sound, RAM for performances, aesthetic design, dimension and of course the price to determine the budget capability to get or buy the smartphone for every daily activities use.

    Thanks to Shopee with their Oppo Brand Day Exclusive Deal up to 18% off on September 29 of the following smartphone:

    OPPO A5 2020 4GB RAM 128GB ROM

    Dimension Image

    OPPO A5 2020 (A5) fits five separate cameras into a single smartphone. A 12MP rear main lens for maximum photo resolution. An Ultra Wide 119° rear lens for panoramic pictures. Two rear lenses that provide artistic portrait effects. And a 8MP front lens featuring AI Beautification. Capture bigger scenes in confined spaces with A5’s 119° Ultra Wide lens*.

    Record every moment with perfect clarity using Video Stability. By combining EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) with intelligent technology and an internal gyroscope, A5 provides shake-free filming even if you are walking, running or riding in a vehicle.

    A5’s 8MP front camera enhances images with AI Beautification. It automatically identifies ages and smoothes different skin tones depending on gender, and adjusts pictures based on current beauty trends.

    Surround yourself with full-bodied, clear sound even at full volume. With two speakers instead of only one, the A5 delivers rich audio ambiance since it’s also equipped with Dolby Atmos®.

    Working in tandem with A5’s 4GB of RAM, Snapdragon 665 provides faster performances while simultaneously lowering power consumption by 20%. Nowhere is this more evident than with Game Boost 2.0. It combines Frame Boost and Touch Boost for smoother, more responsive gaming.

    Data on LPDDR4x dual channel memory performance comes from OPPO-run tests comparing LPDDR4x to LPDDR3. Results may vary under different conditions.

    A5 comes equipped either 64GB or 128GB of ROM*. Then add up to 256GB of additional memory into the three-card slot (Dual Sim + MicroSD) for tons of extra storage.

    You can watch HD videos on your phone non-stop for more than 11 hours. Plus A5’s 5000mAh Ultra Battery can even reverse charge* all your other devices.

    A5 takes everything to another dimension. In addition to an assortment of color gradients inspired by nature, its 3D ergonomic body was designed for a better grip and thinner visual appearance.

    The crown jewel of A5’s larger content display is a redesigned Waterdrop Notch. And because of dynamic pixel adjustment, you can read what is on your screen even under strong sunlight. Plus, A5 filters out harmful blue light to prevent eye fatigue, protect your vision and even help you fall asleep faster.

    Presenting an all-new UI design, ColorOS 6 shines with intelligent, smooth navigation. Based on Android 9.0, the borderless design now includes a Smart Riding Mode, Smart Assistance, Swipe-Up Gesture Navigation and even OPPO Cloud Service.

    OPPO believes technology should be as reliable as it is innovative. That’s why the A5 was created using rigorous quality controls. The volume button, power button and even the earphone plug have all been tested to last well beyond the phone’s usage lifecycle.

    To get the OPPO A5 2020, download the Shopee app for free from the App Store or Google Play to avail the exclusive deal for every budget.

  • ASEAN Data Science Explorers Hosts its First Virtual National Finals and Announces Team Incognito as Winner to Represent THE PHILIPPINES

    ASEAN Data Science Explorers Hosts its First Virtual National Finals and Announces Team Incognito as Winner to Represent THE PHILIPPINES

    The ASEAN Foundation and SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) are pleased to announce that the ASEAN Data Science Explorers (ASEAN DSE) faces no slowdown despite the COVID-19 pandemic as it hosts its first virtual National Finals this year. Crowned national champions are the three teams from Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology, University of the Philippines – Visayas, and Ateneo de Manila University in ASEANDSE 2020 National Finals – Philippines that took place today virtually.

    Despite the global pandemic, ASEAN DSE continues to solicit interest from the youth community and remains in its endeavor to skill and equip youths with essential digital age skills. A total of 852 youths across the region competed to represent their country in the National Finals, with 4563 students and lecturers trained in SAP Analytics Cloud in 2020.  

    The three winners were judged based on their ability to design a best all-rounded concept that tackles ASEAN socio-economic issues, driven by data insights. The judging criteria look at the creativity, feasibility, innovation, and the team’s ability to demonstrate the solution’s implementation. 

    As the first winner, Team Incognito from Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology will represent the Philippines in the ASEAN DSE 2020’s Regional Finals in November. Below are the details of the winners:

    [First winner] Team Incognito, comprising Jairus Cairo Libunao and Alleah Eunice Tuliao from Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology, took first place at the National Finals. Their project focused on Waste Management.

    [Runner-up] Team Gugma, comprising Kyle Anne Villariza and Genesis Daquinan from the University of the Philippines Visayas, emerged as the runner-up. Their project was designed to tackle the overexploitation issue of the ASEAN fisheries.

    [Second runner-up] Meanwhile, Team Board Men, comprising Gabriel Carlo Gamulo and John Michel Lee from Ateneo de Manila University, became the second runner-up for their project on Neural Community.

    “Now more than ever, we need the youth’s creativity and innovativeness in finding solutions and ways to solve emerging problems that our region and the world are facing. Their participation is paramount especially in our recovery from this pandemic and in pushing forward our collective vision of a more resilient and sustainable future for all,” said Mr. Paul Anthony Pangilinan, Commissioner-at-Large Office of the President of the Philippines, National Youth Commission.

    “Together with the ASEAN Foundation, we at SAP strongly encourage the youths to use their newly learned skills from SAP Analytics Cloud to create sustainable innovations for current social and economic issues. Also, youths should utilize these skills for their self-development,” said Edler Panlilio, SAP Philippines’ Managing Director. “Digital skills are more relevant now in the middle of our current pandemic situation and as we look towards recovery. We are pleased to see that youths in ASEAN can make a difference in that goal and improve people’s lives.”

    “ASEAN DSE is the embodiment of our commitment with SAP to empower youth in the region with future-ready skills that will allow them to thrive and become globally competitive during this difficult period and in the years to come,” said Dr. Yang Mee Eng, the ASEAN Foundation’s Executive Director. “We are very happy to see so many innovative data-driven proposals presented by all National Finalists today. It is a testament to what our youths can do when exposed to and equipped with relevant digital skills and provided with an immersive platform to showcase their talents. We believe that our ASEAN youths can create impactful solutions for the community to prosper if given the opportunity.” 

    “Our journey in this competition was beyond our expectation! Until now, the thought of being the national winner hasn’t sunk in yet. Going into the national finals was really nerve-wracking and, at the same time, exciting! We remember the challenges we had to face in joining this competition. We didn’t know what data science really was. Luckily, our college conducted training on how to do data analysis. That started it all! From there, we came up with a storyboard on waste management because we noticed that there’s a loophole in our current waste management system. We thought that if we don’t do any actions about this now, it will continue to cause fatal consequences to us and the environment,” said Team Incognito.The National Finals was also streamed live via Facebook, attracting more than 2,300 viewers.

    ASEAN DSE is a regional programme by the ASEAN Foundation and SAP that aims to catalyze activism and critical thinking among university students in ASEAN. Since its inception in 2017, ASEAN DSE has empowered over 16,259 students, 1,420 lecturers from 370 higher education institutes in the region with data analytics skills. The programme engages youth to develop data-driven solutions that highlight six Sustainable Development Goals namely (1) good health and well-being, (2) quality education, (3) gender equality, (4) decent work and economic growth, (5) industry, innovation & infrastructure and (6) sustainable cities and communities by harnessing SAP’s Analytics Cloud software.

    ASEAN Foundation and SAP share the common objective of  continuing the implementation of ASEAN DSE 2020 as a way of equipping youths with future-ready skills that will enable them to thrive in the “New Normal” era and supporting the theme of Viet Nam’s ASEAN Chairmanship, which is building a “Cohesive and Responsive ASEAN.”

    Last September 15, Shopee and Globe myBusiness conducted the Sellers’ Masterclass Webinar, empowering sellers with skills to grow and expand their online business.

    Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, and Globe myBusiness, held a Sellers’ Masterclass Webinar for Globe myBusiness Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSMEs) clients last September 15. The one-day exclusive masterclass featured key speakers from Shopee and Globe myBusiness, equipping sellers with in-depth e-commerce knowledge and skills to help them scale and succeed online.

    Nicola Ebrada, Industry Lead for Supply Chain at Globe myBusiness, said, “We at Globe myBusiness, are the digital solutions partner of MSMEs. Guiding our customers towards digitalization has always been our focus, even before the pandemic. We believe that having this Sellers Masterclass with Shopee, who is also one of Globe myBusiness’ valued customers, will enable us to further support our MSMEs in transitioning to the online retail space.”

    As digitalization takes on greater significance for SMEs and entrepreneurs in light of the Covid-19 pandemic, this initiative serves as a vital stepping stone for both Shopee and Globe myBusiness sellers to understand and utilize the platform to achieve long-term success online. During the masterclass, sellers learned how to tap on marketing tools on Shopee and use effective advertising tactics to amplify their online presence and boost online sales.

    Ruoshan Tao, Head of Marketing at Shopee Philippines, said, “Our partnership with Globe myBusiness reflects one of our key commitments for this year, which is to help economic recovery for our local MSMEs, sellers, and brands. Undoubtedly, this pandemic affected the Filipino community and brought about many challenges, especially to business owners. Together with Globe myBusiness, we will continue to accelerate our seller empowerment efforts and provide them with opportunities to sustain and grow their businesses.”

    Shopee and Globe myBusiness will launch the Shopee Live Super Seller Rewards campaign to build on the success of the Sellers’ Masterclass Webinar. The upcoming initiative encourages sellers to leverage Shopee Live as a useful marketing tool to boost online sales and amplify their online presence. With Shopee Live, brands and sellers can interact and connect with their fans and consumers in real-time, offering an interactive shopping experience.

  • Shopee Enhances Support for Brands to Scale and Succeed Online, Starting with its Annual 10.10 Brands Festival

    Shopee Enhances Support for Brands to Scale and Succeed Online, Starting with its Annual 10.10 Brands Festival

    Shopee announces the region’s first partnership program with five of the biggest media agencies to help brands amplify their online presence

    Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, is expanding its initiatives to help brands and retailers launch, scale, and succeed online, starting with its annual Shopee 10.10 Brands Festival. As more brands and retailers step up their digitalization efforts to capture a growing proportion of online-first consumers, it is crucial for brands to find new ways to reach and engage with their consumers.

    This 10.10 Brands Festival, Shopee enhances its support for brands with the launch of its Shopee Media Agencies Partner Program (SMAP) covering seven markets[1]. This strategic program is the region’s first and largest of its kind, comprising five leading global media agencies: Dentsu Aegis Network, Omnicom Media Group, Publicis Groupe, Havas Group, and Mediabrands.

    Through this program, Shopee will equip media agencies with in-depth knowledge and skills on using Shopee’s suite of brand marketing tools, including advertising solutions such as Shopee Ads, products such as in-app branding assets, and other value-added services. Shopee will also provide the media agencies with a deeper understanding of e-commerce sharing best practices on store management, campaign execution, and optimization. As brands invest more in growing their online presence, SMAP will enable media agencies to leverage a broader range of e-commerce tools to maximize the return on investment of their clients’ media spend.

    Also, media agencies and their clients will have the opportunity to get exclusive first-hand access to Shopee’s new marketing solutions and products.

    Martin Yu, Associate Director at Shopee Philippines, said, “We’re encouraged by the growth in the number of local and international brands joining Shopee Mall, who trust and rely on Shopee to sustain and expand their businesses. Helping our brand partners make a seamless transition online, amplify their online presence, and boost brand affinity has always been a priority. We’re excited to launch the SMAP program, which complements our existing end-to-end support system for brands to achieve success online. We will continuously innovate our platform to deliver better value for brands and their customers.”

    Amplifying online presence with strong marketing and operational capabilities

    Aside from SMAP, brands can further elevate their online presence and scale their e-commerce business with Shopee’s strong ecosystem of solutions:

    • Robust logistics and warehouse solutions: Shopee’s strong logistics support enables brands to fulfill their orders with ease, especially when sales volumes are high. Brands can tap on Shopee’s optimized network of warehouses to ship out orders more efficiently, including the use of data to forecast demand so that brands can better allocate their resources.  
    • Easy-to-use brand marketing tools: With Shopee’s custom-built Shop Decoration Tool, brands can easily customize the layout of their Official Stores to reflect their brand image and identity. This is especially useful for brands to build authentic connections with their customers through enhanced brand storytelling.

    Building stronger connections with customized engagement features

    As more consumers seek greater entertainment while shopping online, brands can leverage in-app features such as Shopee Live to bring together unique entertainment, real-time interactions, and instant purchases. Shopee can help brands produce live-stream content and has dedicated brand support teams to customize engagement strategies to achieve optimal results.

    For instance, brands familiar with e-commerce, such as L’Oreal, are constantly exploring ways to engage their consumers better. At the recent 9.9 Super Shopping Day, Shopee worked with L’Oreal to host an extended 3-hour live streaming marathon featuring over 8 Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) across the region, which successfully garnered over 180,000 views.

    On the other hand, Shopee also offers tools tailored for brands who are newer to e-commerce or do not have prior experience with online engagement strategies. For example, the Shopee KOL program pairs brands with popular influencers for their brand live streams, contributing to boosting the brand’s visibility and sales.

    Highlights of 10.10 Brands Festival

    As the region’s biggest online shopping event for brands,  the 10.10 Brands Festival will feature 2 weeks of supersized brand promotions and back to back Super Brands Days. The festival will run from September 24 to October 10, with key highlights including:

    • Free shipping with 0 minimum spend for the entire period of 10.10 Brands Festival.
    • Enjoy value-added services and guarantees such as 100% Authentic products, Free Delivery, and hassle-free 7-day return policy at Shopee Mall.
    • Daily sulit deals where users can score 10 deals and enjoy fun games like bingo marathon and other game shows on Shopee Live.
    • Amazing promotions and up to 50% off discount from leading brands such as Infinix, Wyeth, Vivo, Unilever, Oppo, Mamypoko, Nestle, Enfagrow, Maybelline, L’Oreal Paris, Inspi, Havaianas, P&G Pampers, Johnson & Johnson, and Abbott.
