Last March 29,
I was invited by Bigbenta Corporation to be a part of their big event,
the launch of BigBenta Prime! Initially, I was simply in a state of
wonder as to what was in store for the participants, as the event was
strictly by invitation-only. As one of the bloggers in the event, I
simply want to share my reaction and comments about this recent event.
- Opening Remarks Led by BigBenta.com COO Sharon Fong
The event was very entertaining and was able to capture our attention.
Personally, I think this was one consistent quality that the event was
able to offer. From the opening remarks led by COO Sharon Fong (who was
also the host), all the way to the awarding of the raffle prizes, the
entire event was organized to make sure that the participants stayed
attentive. The explanations done were straight to the point and
entertaining at the same time, I found it really impressive that
BigBenta.com has done the extra mile to explain a new idea/product in a
way that was free of technical jargons and unnecessary content.
- BigBenta.com CEO, Charlie Fong & Servequest Chairman, Bobby Alvarez
Bigbenta was able to clarify the questions thrown in by the participants. As
a testament to the entertaining factor of the event itself, a lot of
the bloggers asked questions regarding the program itself. Despite the
complexity of some of the questions, founders Charlie and Sharon Fong,
as well as Servequest’s Bobby Alvarez were able to answer all the
questions that were thrown at them. Although I didn’t really have any
questions myself, it impressed me how knowledgeable the BigBenta.com's
team actually was.
And so, here is my understanding of BigBenta Prime:
- BigBenta.com CEO, Charlie Fong
As
described by founder Charlie Fong, Bigbenta Prime is the country’s only
“provider of extensive information of Philippine properties -online”,
and needless to say, this is a very helpful product for almost anyone,
especially those who live far away, like OFWs. Considering the terrible
traffic situation in a lot of the areas in the Philippines, users of
Bigbenta Prime would be able to save on gas and time, by accessing all
the necessary information from using their computers and mobile devices.
It will give comfort to the buyers that Bigbenta.com only deals with
trustworthy and accredited property developers. And for other
information published on the online site, such as flood mapping, and 360
view of the location, perspective photos, all information were verified
right from the source, i.e. government agencies and the property
developers themselves.
In summary, I believe that BigBenta.com will be VERY beneficial to the Filipinos.

It
is well known that Filipinos are very cautious when buying big-ticket
items that require a huge amount of money, such as properties and real
estate. This is probably the reason why I believe that BigBenta Prime
would be able to revolutionize the way people would be buying properties
in the Philippines. Not only would it save expenses and headaches, but
it would also be a very transparent and safe way for Filipinos who are
intending to buy properties. One issue that many buyers have when
purchasing a house, is that their broker would exaggerate the features
of the product that they are offering, which causes a lot of customers
to be dismayed or angry when they see the final product. BigBenta Prime
aims to make sure that buying houses or condos would be 100%
hassle-free. As emphasized by the BigBenta.com’s founder, Charlie Fong
several times during the event, “Nothing more, nothing less. Would-be
buyers will get accurate and complete information from the site that
will make them feel at ease about investing their hard-earned money.”
BigBenta Marketplace
is the only e-commerce platform in the Philippines that features free
classified ads (buy and sell), online stores, and service bookings.
Through these platforms, it aims to help the Filipino entrepreneur and
MSMEs use the internet to grow their business
