Team MR.DIY is getting bigger!

THE COUNTRY’s favorite one-stop-shop for family and home improvement introduced its new brand ambassadors, Team Kramer, for its ongoing MR.DIY ‘The Family Store for Everyday Needs - Meron DIYan’ campaign during a media launch in Novotel Quezon City recently.

“MR. DIY is not just a store; it is an embodiment of values and aspirations. When we say MR.DIY, we talk about improving family life by enhancing homes. About nurturing our familial bonds and fostering a loving environment within our households,” said MR.DIY Philippines CEO Roselle Andaya.

The campaign underscores MR.DIY’s goal of providing families with their everyday home and lifestyle needs. The brand remains committed to its “Always Low Prices” motto, offering a variety of products and essentials that aim to meet the daily needs and demands of its consumers.


 
Andaya also added that affordability and quality of products are not opposites, and that everyone should expect to get value for money without compromise on the products that will be part of their homes. She also added that MR.DIY is also about creating nurturing spaces for families.

According to Mark Charles Salecina, Senior Marketing Manager of MR.DIY Philippines, the campaign puts the focus of the company on families. “We always put families at the core of our services, and we strive to grow closer to more families by opening more stores, to make them feel that there’s always a MR.DIY store near them, ready to meet their everyday needs with quality products, at always low prices, that every family member can enjoy - Meron DIYan! ” Salecina said.


Team Kramer is the brand’s first-ever celebrity ambassador. During the launch, Team Kramer — composed of Doug and Cheska and their kids Kendra, Scarlett, and Gavin — all took part and interacted with the guests. The celebrity couple played a game called Meron DIYan where they had to guess and recreate MR.DIY products with the press.

Recently, the family broke ground for their new three-story house project. The family announced last year their plan to build another house as "a build and sell passion project."

“We are fortunate and excited to welcome a family that embodies what MR.DIY stands for. Positivity, shared experiences, growth, hard work, respect and love. These are the values that we share with the Kramer family,” Andaya said.

A Facebook Chatbot Help for Store Finder PH Users on Free Mobile Internet

4/11/2020 10:47:00 PM

Currently, when everything is so hard to reach, it's good to know that we are still blessed because of the technology of today. Here is one development that is of great help in times of crisis. So if you're ready to get to know what it is well, just continue reading and know what it is.

When Store Finder PH’s map website went live on March 19 to help locate nearby establishments that are open during the COVID-19 community quarantine, families with no internet connection seem left behind.

However with Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, the volunteer-initiated website is able to make its key content available on Facebook Messenger through a chatbot. A chatbot is a computer robot that replies to messages like a human being.

Currently, Facebook Messenger can be used even without a mobile data plan as part of the basic service of Smart, Globe, and affiliate providers, making the store finding-chatbot accessible to more than 44 million phone internet users in the Philippines at no extra cost.

Store Finder PH named its chatbot “Crowdy” to signify the project’s crowd-sourcing nature of collecting information. To use the chatbot, the user should open the project’s Facebook messenger.

After tapping “Get Started”, the user may pick the establishment category and type a location that the chatbot will scan through. A list of search results including grocery shops, restaurants, pharmacies, banks, ATM centers, remittance centers, logistic hubs, and other essential stores is then displayed within seconds.

Although the map feature is disabled when on free mobile data, crucial information including business hours are still delivered in text format.

“Our main contribution as millenials to the Enhanced Community Quarantine measure of the government is making tech solutions and life-saving information reach the doorsteps of every Filipino,” said Trinmar Boado, an award-winning Information and Communication Technology (ICT) advocate and leader of the volunteer project.

He added the chatbot is getting a high volume of query for remittance centers, explaining this must be from parents of stranded students and other individuals sending out financial help.

On Store Finder PH’s website version at www.storefinder.ph, users can see the map of their neighborhood and the exact location of open establishments. They can also chat with other active users within the vicinity to seek any assistance during emergencies.

To start using the Store Finder PH chatbot, open m.me/StoreFinder.PH or fb.com/StoreFinder.PH now.
