BPI Express Deposit – Deposit your cash anytime, real-time

Tweet

I was surprised today at BPI when I went to deposit some cash. Normally, I would find a long line any time of the day waiting to be served by the only 2 tellers that this particular branch employs.

The 1st clue was when there was no line. The 2nd was when a young assistant—probably an OJT—approached me while I’m filling up a deposit slip. Apparently their branch now has the Express Deposit Machine that I could use to deposit money to my account as long as I have my ATM card with me and the money is for that ATM. He was able to persuade me to use the machine after ensuring that the money will be credited to my account real time—and that the machine won’t swallow first-timers like me.

After a few push of buttons and carefully placing my cash into the ‘mouth’ of the machine, I was done. The machine gave me the receipt, enumerating the bills that I deposited and the total account balance after deposit. The transaction took less than 3minutes to complete. It’s really great that BPI is now employing this Express Deposit machines; sadly they’re available only at 25 locations as of this writing.

Technicalities:

1. The machine accepts cash in Php100, Php500 and Php1,000 denominations only.
2. No need for envelops to deposit your cash.
3. Money deposited is credited to your account instantly.
4. You can deposit 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, but all transactions after 10pm will be credited on the next banking day.
5. The machine will issue you a receipt enumerating the bills that you deposited its total amount and your account balance.
6. Aside from cash deposits, you can also do balance inquiry, funds transfer, bills payment, prepaid cellphone reloading and express cash reloading on all Express Deposit Machines.

PinayShopper is now a PowerSeller

Tweet

Yup, that’s right! PinayShopper is now a certified eBay Bronze PowerSeller.  After a year of selling in eBay, I have finally managed to be a PowerSeller.  But what is a PowerSeller, you might ask?

eBay defines PowerSellers as a community of sellers who are committed to upholding and embracing the core values that are the very foundation of eBay.  They are exemplary members who are held to the highest standards of professionalism, having achieved and maintained a 98% positive feedback rating and excellent customer service as reflected by high detailed seller rating scores.

Ever since I took online selling as a serious extra source of income I’ve been looking for ways to increase my sales, build up my credibility and show case my work.  Becoming a PowerSeller had become a goal for me since all those I want can be sum up in this tiny icon.

To my customers

A very big thank you to all repeat and new customers.  There were mishaps, delays and sometimes unavailability of items; and yet all of you were patient with me.  Ensure that I will continue to serve your orders gladly.

Natasha, Makes Your Dreams Come True – Primer 1

Another direct selling company that has been in the business for more than 15years now is Natasha.  Excellent product and marketing scheme is the key success of Natasha.  Personally, I know of a group manager that has been one of Natasha’s top 10 sellers, with a total of 6 centers all over Cavite and Luzon.

Having a Natasha business center starts by becoming a dealer.  Choose your group wisely.  Having a group manager that really helps their dealer is one key to success in this direct dealership business.  To become a member, simply accomplish the membership form and submit the needed requirements to any Natasha branch or service center near you.

Membership & Discount
A member is entitled to 22% outright discount on all shoes and apparel products of Natasha; while a 27% discount can be made on Natasha beauty products.  There are 2 types of membership in Natasha; the Member and the Fashion Pro.

On every Natasha group there’s a Fashion Pro serving as the group manager, and the members are the down lines. 

Rebates
To increase your income and start earning rebates, a member must achieve a P10,000 gross group sale in one calendar month.  The rebates will start on the following month.

Gross Direct Group Sales	Percentage of Rebates
5,000 – 9,999	2%
10,000 and up	3%

The P10,000 gross group sales can easily be achieved by recruiting more members on your team.  The number of recruits is unlimited.  And the sales of all your recruits up to the nth level are included on your gross group sale computation provided that the member is not yet earning rebates for themselves.  Once a member achieves the minimum quota, he will receive his own rebates depending on his group’s gross sale; and will no longer be part of your team.

Promotions
Members with high gross group sales are rewarded even further in Natasha.  By achieving a gross group sale of P60,000 in 2 calendar months, a member is automatically promoted to Fashion Pro 1, where a different set of rebates is being given.  But for more diligent members who share the Natasha value to more people, a level of Fashion Pro 2 is rewarded given that he achieved a gross group sale of P100,000 in 2 calendar months.

The promotions are automatic and don’t have to be in sequence.  If a member has achieved the P100,000 gross group sales in 2 calendar months, even if he’s just a member, will automatically be promoted to Fashion Pro 2.

Gross Group Sales	Fashion Pro 1	Fashion Pro 2
5,000 – 9,999	7.5%	7.5%
10,000 – 14,999	10%	10%
15,000 – 19,999	10%	12.5%
20,000 and up	10%	15%

This totals to roughly a maximum of 37% in discount.

Credit Line
To qualify for a credit line, a member must already have made a net paid up sales of P2,000; and submit proof checking account and proof of billing address.  Credit is payable after 30days and one week, covered by a post-dated check.

A member’s credit line, increases through his total net paid individual sales, and how healthy his credit line is.  This I will talk more on Natasha Primer Part 2.

Requirements
1 x 1 ID picture (with White background)
Photocopy of government issued ID or company ID
Proof of billing (at least within the last 3 months)
