Ever since COVID-19 hit us all (COVID sucks!), a lot of people have had their jobs and sources of income affected. But if you’re one of those people who think fast, most likely, you already have a newfound brand with awesome products to sell online. We find that AWESOME! And if you’re actually an existing business, even better for you! Super essential work ka. High five! ✋
However, you’re most likely just one of many people who have thought of the same thing. “Great minds think alike,” ika nga. So marami kayong may “great minds”! Isn’t that great? 😁 (Naparami din tuloy ako sa paggamit ng “great”, lol. 😛)
So, if you are one of the many “great” (ayan nanaman ako) minds that have thought about the same thing, how can you be sure that you are more noticeable than the rest? (Remember: Ang mabigat na kalaban sa survival ng isang business ay ang pagiging hindi noticeable, or as Grant Cardone said, “Obscurity will kill you.”)
The answer is simple - especially if you’re selling or planning to sell your awesome products - you need to be able to capture exactly how AWESOME they are. Remember that we first eat with our eyes. A great photo or video of your food item will make people crave just by looking at the picture or image, and drive them to buy in order to experience your product! (If you know Cooking Master Boy, then you know what we are talking about! 😁) Kaya ‘yung mga nagsasabi diyan ng “Looks don’t matter”, hindi po totoo yun, hehe. 😅
We mean, sure, you can style the products yourself and you can take your photos or videos with your cellphone. Baka sabihin niyo lang sa amin, “Magaling naman ako mag-ayos Tsaka hindi ba’t maganda na ang picture quality ng iPhone X Max? Or ng Huawei P30? Or (insert whatever phone you have here)? Tsaka, may camera naman ako, mahal yun!”
We’re not going to dispute that. Yun lang, baka hindi ganun kaganda yung lumabas. Are you willing to risk that? 🤔 Remember, the photos of products are the ones that will drive people to buy. If sa picture pa lang, hindi na sila matuwa, no matter what kind of arrangement you make, kahit gaano mo kaganda idescribe na ang ingredients mo ay premium lang, and each item ay lovingly prepared by you the night before delivery para sure na fresh ang item for the buyer, hindi sila bibili. Kasi turned off na sila sa itsura eh. 😞
Or what if other businesses na pareho sa inyo have better photos than you? Kahit mas masarap ang gawa mo, doon bibili ang mga tao, hindi sa inyo. 😢
But that’s why we’re here! :D
We are Noel and Rae, the husband and wife tandem behind Slice of Life MNL. Small business din kami, tulad ninyo. :D And while you’re in the business of awesome products, we’re in the business of making awesome products become real to your customers. :D
We have plenty of experience in that area. (Check niyo portfolio namin, matutuwa kayo pramis. 😁) We can do the same for you, and in the process, drive your sales up! (Important especially if you plan to continue to do this after ECQ is lifted, kung kelan man yun.)
Quick story: We personally know of three people who bought from a client after we posted the pics. And they told us they had stopped looking at our Instagram because it’s making them hungry and making them buy food. 🤣 If that’s not us being successful in making people hungry with our photos alone, we don’t know what it is. 😉
And that’s just three people we know; what about other people we don’t, ‘di ba?
We’re also pretty much veterans in the business; we have done food shoots for Mabuhay Magazine, Breakfast Magazine, Cafe Aquatica, Ramen Nagi, The Bailiwick Academy, Anya Resort, Manila Peninsula, A. Venue, and many other small businesses and home bakers like Cakeaholic by Joanne and The Critical Baker. So you can be sure na hindi kami nanloloko lang, haha! ✋😁
So what can we do for you? Like we said, we’ll give you very styled, very beautiful content to drive sales for your e-commerce business, all the while preserving your vision and look for your brand. To re-emphasize, we are a small business, so we understand the struggles of other small businesses, and want to help you all succeed! Hatakan lang tayo pataas. :D Because of that, you can rest assured na itong service na ‘to, kayang-kaya niyong i-afford. And because you’re a business owner who wants to upgrade your business, reach more people, and get more sales, you’d reach out to us, right? :D
What are you waiting for? :D Send us a message on Facebook, email us at [email protected], or follow and message us at instagram.com/sliceoflifemnl! We’ll be waiting. :)
Let your brand become the amazing (ad)venture that it should be. Let us help you enjoy the pleasure of “reaping your just desserts!” (Yay, puns!)
Noel and Rae
P.S. While we’ll be offering this service for pretty much forever, if you act now, there will be a special gift for you: we won’t be offering JUST photography and styling. :D Reach out to us now and find out what else you’ll get. :D
