My first ever networking blogger event was a great experience. I attended Blogapalooza 2013 at the SM Aura on November 16. The event was organized by Vince Golangco ( Radio DJ at Mellow 94.7, TV Show host of Tek Tok TV (Tech Talk TV) and Publisher of WhenInManila.com), Francis Simisim – CEO of Gang I.T. Ventures Inc., online marketing specialist and blogger on TechFilipino.com and Anton Diaz – One of the top online personalities in the Philippines. His blog is OurAwesomePlanet.com
I met up with fellow WAHM, Rikka from Rikx Knows Best. It was both our first time to attend an event of this magnitude. We started making the rounds and chatted with each business as they presented their products and services.
Vince Golangco was there all throughout and there were plenty more speakers but I was only able to stay until 3pm. I enjoyed watching Tim Tayag’s comedy act. He was hilarious! Other comedians at the event were Marlon Olivan, James Caraan, and Derf Hebrado.
I have to admit it was pretty cool to go to this event, receive items, win prizes and eat delicious food all for free. Check out the sponsors, speakers and goodies I received.
Stay tuned for my features on those that made an impression.
Chooks to Go
They had a fun activity set up for us bloggers with a game to play and prizes to win.
Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass
I tried their drink and to be honest it wasn’t as tasty as I would have liked it to be but benefits wise this product has a lot of to offer.
Tino
I got a cute bowtie from this sponsor and was interested in their suits because the family and I will be attending a wedding in June.
Slenda
I’m on a very little bit of a health kick so this product was of interest but I don’t take tea, capsules and such. I did however admire their poster because the pretty girl in the poster is a mom herself and very sexy.
Nice Day Coffee
I’m not a big coffee drinker but I love the smell. This coffee offers skin whitening, figure slimming and body cleansing.
Grab Taxi
Grab Taxi offered a refund of up to Php150 going to the Blogapalooza event. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to take advantage as the app didn’t want to work on my tablet. However, I had a great time trying the game you see below. My hands were shaky so I only got about half way. However, I did receive a discount card!
Lulu Nails & Dry Bar
There was a free try of their Soft Gel Polish from Trugel but I didn’t have enough time. They had the cutest chairs and I also got a discount coupon. Hoping to try it soon!
BYS
My daughter loves make up and nail polish so she was really happy to receive the nail art lacquer in yellow that I was given worth Php250.00. They have a good line of cosmetics and I just might buy some for my daughter this Christmas.
Zipmatch
Zipmatch offers a service that makes looking for real estate property easy and convenient. It’s also promoted as a reliable service even telling you areas served by transport links, places where you work, and where you can be safe.
Chef’s Noodle
Chef’s Noodle was giving away these bright colored ball point pens (I got orange). They’re a fast and casual Korean restaurant.
PLDT
I’ve been a PLDT subscriber for the longest time. I have a phone and DSL bundle and have been pretty happy with their service.
Meister
I didn’t get a chance to talk to the people at this booth however I plan on looking into this as I’m thinking of getting a watch for my husband this Christmas. Shhh! It’s a surprise.
Gurkka.com
An online seller of wines and spirits. They have a bloggers promo going on now.
There were plenty more products and services but these others I have left to be made into separate posts. These are products and services that I’m interested in using and would like to recommend. Watch out for that!
