realme introduces first in-ear buds, offers stylish TWS designed by José Lévy

 

realme Philippines, lifestyle partner of the youth, grows its local AIOT product line-up with the launch of its latest audio device realme Buds Q on September 30. The realme Buds Q is the first in-ear True Wireless Stereo (TWS) from the brand. Poised to be the most stylish entry-level TWS yet, the realme Buds Q sports the genius design of José Lévy, the cooperated designer of Hermès and the art director of the realme Design Studio.

 

The youth of today thrives in the digital realm, a virtual biosphere that teems with platforms for self-expression. One way through which the youth expresses themselves is their style. The Gen Zs, for instance, coming from the generation that no longer knows a world pre-social media, are the most photographed people today. This makes them keen for fresh and new looks on the regular. Dedicated to offering what the youth needs, realme has committed to being not only a brand of top-notch technology but also of contemporary design. This gene of modern aesthetic is evident across all realme products -- every single one of which is a fashion statement on its own. The realme artistry is born out of the hard work of the realme Design Studio under the leadership of José Lévy the designer of Hermes.

 

For the Buds Q, Lévy took inspiration from the round cobblestones found along the shores of Normandy beach where he spent most of his youth. He and the realme team iterated the design for over 200 times, fine-tuning the curvature of the G3 curve just to give users a cobblestone-like design that is mellow and comfortable. An artistic and ergonomic masterpiece, the realme Buds Q is both a sight to behold and a pleasure to use. The realme Buds Q also brings sound performance straight out of audio heaven through its 10mm Large Driver and  Dynamic Bass Boost.

 

realme Buds Q users can also enjoy long hours of usage as the device’s charging case can hold power amounting to 20 hours worth total playback. The buds could also go on for three hours of single continuous calling time, four and a half hours of single continuous music listening time, five hours of single continuous gaming time, and six hours of single continuous video streaming time.

 

Watch the grand reveal of the realme Buds Q and the new realme 7 series in an online livestream launch on realme Philippines’ official Facebook page and YouTube channel on September 30, 12 noon. realme Philippines prepared an exciting and engaging launch for its fans. The live stream features seven interactive rooms full of exciting surprises. Fans and the Filipino realme Squad are encouraged to follow realme Philippines’ official accounts on Facebook and Instagram  @realmePhilippines to get more updates on the launch and other brand promos.

 

ING extends high interest rate on savings until end of the year

Encouraging Filipinos to adopt a habitual savings mindset amid the pandemic

Dutch financial giant and the first all-digital bank in the Philippines, ING Bank, said that the rise of the “savings mentality” during the quarantine period can be sustained even after the COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines. 

In a report by ING’s research department, as job losses mount and economic prospects dim because of the coronavirus pandemic, more households are likely to cut back further on discretionary funds and build savings instead.  

“The pandemic has altered the way Filipinos think about and undertake their financial transactions. Right now, more Filipinos are motivated to save more and spend less in preparing for their future,” said ING Philippines country manager Hans Sicat. 

This is supported by reports of increased number of bank savings account being opened for the past few months during the pandemic. 

“We want to encourage more Filipinos to adopt a habitual savings mindset, especially as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic changes the way we save and spend. Being the first all-digital bank in the Philippines, we have created a simple and easy way for Filipinos to save. And we are committed to help more Filipinos to be financially included, one savings account at a time,” Hans said. 

Habit formation requires three elements:  a cue, a routine and a reward.  Hence, ING recently announced that it will further extend its 4% interest promo to end-of-year to help in encouraging a new savings mindset in the long run. New customers who open an ING Save account by December 31, 2020 will receive the 4% p.a. interest rate on their savings for the first 4 months. 

Meanwhile, existing ING Save customers will enjoy 4% interest rate p.a. on the new funds deposited to the account from September 1 to December 31, 2020. Both offers are applicable to accounts with available daily balance of up to PHP 20 million, which is double the previous threshold amount of PHP 10 million.

Teleperformance Anthology features uplifting employee stories

Tweet

During tough times, stories have a way of providing us with the positivity and hope we need to keep moving forward.

Teleperformance, global leader in outsourced omnichannel customer experience management, recently launched TP Anthology, a three-part anthology series that showcases remarkable and inspiring stories of their employees. This season’s episodes titled “Homecoming,” “Pangarap,” and “Unbroken” are all about resilience, dreams coming true, and finding your true home.

TP Anthology: Homecoming is about the coming home story of Frances Eileen Ancheta, currently a Center Manager at Teleperformance Aura site. After leaving Teleperformance during her 7th year and working in a different company for five months, she suddenly received a call from her former leader asking her if she wants to come back. Frances decided then and there to return to the place she has always called home. “I was tapped by my former EVP and I felt like it was because he trusted me that much for him to reach out to me and say ‘We would love to have you back with us,’” shared Frances. It did not take long for her to say yes and immediately went to back to work at Teleperformance the week after.

Overall, Frances has been with Teleperformance for 10 years, starting out her career in the organization as a call center agent back in 2010 and made her way up to a leadership role. When asked what made Teleperformance feel like home and why she will always come back, Frances shared, “At Teleperformance, I can be as passionate as I want to be and to be able to see my team be as passionate as I am helps me do my job a lot better. It’s not about the company as a company, it’s about the entire organization and the people that I work with. That’s what makes it feel like home.”

Meanwhile, perseverance in pursuing one’s dream is the theme in TP Anthology: Pangarap. This episode chronicles the journey of Emerson Balagtas, who was part of the housekeeping staff at Teleperformance for eight years, towards becoming a Customer Service Representative at Teleperformance EDSA Greenfield today. 

With the help of Teleperformance leaders and other customer service representatives, Emerson learned, studied, and eventually applied to become an agent – a dream that he once thought was unattainable. “The managers motivate us, and the trainers and supervisors are always there to guide us in the correct path. Here at Teleperformance, they support career growth. They treat employees as family,” shared Emerson.

Now with a stable job and income, Emerson no longer feels the need to go abroad to support his family and with the help of leaders in Teleperformance, he aims to continue advancing in his career. 

The final episode, TP Anthology: Unbroken, is the inspiring story of Nina Kristine Abad, a Director for Client Services at Teleperformance Ayala site, who has been with the company for 15 years. Nina has always been an achiever. However, after a life-changing accident during her vacation abroad that resulted in the amputation of her leg, her confidence was shaken. She even worried that she might lose her job because of this disability. 

“The biggest challenge that PWDs face would not be in their disability, but their confidence in terms of ‘Would they be able to catch or to cope with people without disabilities’ or whether opportunities will be available to them,” shared Nina.

With the support of Teleperformance, both during and after her recovery stage, Nina was able to regain her confidence and learned to be an even better and stronger leader. “Teleperformance gave me equal opportunity. Regardless of my disabilities, whenever I apply for positions, face clients, conduct a workshop, or implement a new program, they see my skills, experience, and knowledge, and not my physical disability, appearance, nor background. Teleperformance has always given me the platform even before I was not disabled. I would say it’s still the same.”

These three inspiring stories are just the first in a series of uplifting stories from Teleperformance. The organization aims to continue spreading positivity especially in this time of crisis and provide any support their employees may need.  

Jeffrey Johnson, Senior Vice President for Human Capital Resource Management of Teleperformance Philippines, shared, “Now more than ever, we have to work together and uplift each other to get through these trying times. We created TP Anthology because we believe in the power of stories. We wanted to use Teleperformance’s platform to give our remarkable employees the ability to inspire others within and beyond the organization.”

Teleperformance continues to find ways to create a workplace that encourages creativity, passion, and innovation for all. With various employee engagement programs, awareness campaigns, and corporate social responsibility initiatives, Teleperformance Philippines fosters a culture of inclusivity and growth. They also recently received its third Great Place to Work® (GPTW®) certification, the first company to do so consecutively in any industry in the Philippines.
