SM SUPERMALLS STEPS UP ONLINE SERVICE VIA NEW PICK UP OFFERING WITH AIRSPEED

E-Commerce Players Seen to Benefit Immensely

The tremendous popularity of e-Commerce in the Philippines has prompted more businesses to sell their products online. As more and more online shops enter the market, competition for customers intensifies and sellers should recognize that any small benefit they can provide their buyers could make or break their business.

According to a study by the Department of Trade and Industry and the World Bank, logistics performance plays a vital role as buyers regard reliability, cost and time to be very important factors when shopping online.

The growth of the online shopping market has led to a corresponding rise in demand for logistics services and Airspeed has heeded the call. As a reputable, efficient, and innovative end to end logistics solutions and express courier company that has been around for more than 30 years, Airspeed has evolved with the times and now offers online merchants innovative logistics services that can help their businesses grow and progress. Airspeed’s door to door and reverse logistics services are particularly beneficial to online merchants.

Just recently, SM Supermalls, the largest mall developer in the country, has partnered with Airspeed to introduce a new fulfillment service called "Pick-up at SM Supermalls". Pick-up allows buyers to pick up their online purchases at designated SM Supermalls. Pick up is a cost-effective, efficient and convenient service that benefits online sellers and online buyers.

Online retailers save cost by using Pick up as additional delivery hubs for their buyers, they can consolidate orders of their clients delivery addresses to one Pick up location thereby making it more efficient to fulfill online orders and buyers can be assured of a quick and easy process when they use Pick up to procure their orders.

A Pickup transaction works simply and easily. First, a buyer purchases from an online retailer. Second, the seller packs and delivers the order to a Pick up kiosk at an SM Mall. Then the customer counter associate of the pick- up kiosk receives the order and notifies the buyer that the order is ready for pick-up. The customer goes to the selected SM mall to get the order from the pick-up booth.

Online businesses should take advantage and sign up for Pick up. Aside from affordability and accessibility, merchants can also use other Airspeed services such as Door to Door Forwarding to ship their orders to the pick-up booth at SM, and Reverse Logistics to return any failed Pick up orders.

Online merchants that partner with Airspeed and SM through Pickup service will be able to offer their buyers an effective and convenient delivery option. And in the world of online shopping, even a small advantage can make a big difference.

Pick up booths will open soon in SM Megamall, SM City Fairview, SM North EDSA, SM Southmall and SM City Masinag.

Get Fit 2012 Session 5

February 18, 2012
Accomplice: Wala^^ (nasa Anawangin)
Venue: Philsports - ULTRA, Track Oval

Eto na ulit! Sabado na naman! At dahil hindi ako naka-attend sa Session 4 (ang daya, nagpa-raffle kung kailan wala kami^^) para mapaghandaan ang Condura Skyway Marathon 2012 – Run for Mangroves noong February 5 (walang session noong nakaraang Sabado, February 111 para bigyang-daan ang finals ng UAAP Track and Field) kaya naman ako ay sabik na makadalo kahit na ako ay mag-isa lamang :)

Huwag na nating patagalin, basic fitness and running drills, basic fundamentals in sports training, general conditioning, injury prevention exercises, running techniques at socialization. Natututo ka na, may mga bago ka pang mga kaibigan. Ngayon ay kasama naman namin si Sir Carlo Magno Canta, trainer ng Philippine Wrestling Team. Mas mahirap ang mga ipinagawa ngayon, mukhang pahirap na ng pahirap ah :)

Narito ang mga larawan ng nasabing Fitness Training para sa "Get Fit 2012"na theme ngayong taon. Ang iba diyan ay kuha mula sa Facebook Fan Page ng HyperSports Philippines Inc.

At para maging kumpleto ang aming training, may fun game na "bring me" at hindi din biro ang prizes dahil galing sa Reebok at Diadora ang mga gantimpala (Diadora Sling Bag, Reebok Zigtech Race Cap at running accessories). Marami-rami din ang mga nanalo. Salamat sa sponsors. Narito ang ilang larawan:

Salamat din sa aming sports drink sponsor - ang Pocari Sweat!

Pagkatapos ng training, may dala naman ang amin kasamahan na si Running Berto na Oatmeal Brownies, tamang-tama dahil pagod ang lahat. Mabuti na lang at naabutan ko pa (nakadalawa pa ako^^):

Pagod at masakit ang katawan, binalewala ko ito at umuwi ng masaya. Kinailangan kong matulog ng maaga para naman makapag jogging kinabukasan ng umaga (wala kasi akong fun run kinabukasan kaya lang hindi na ako sanay na hindi tumatakbo). 

Running for love ♥
