TAWAS (ALUM) NGA TAPOL, SWERTRES, MAGICIAN IN COLON STREET, CEBU- SCAMMERS?

Going to Sto. Niño church and saw a group of people watching a street magic. I have seen this entertainment many times but it was just a snap look and I suddenly left the place as soon as possible before they will sell me something. 

But way back April 2, 2016, out of curiosity and I have enough time, I watched the show. A magician, I forgot his name, he said he has a house somewhere in Labangon. He performed and well-versed on encouraging people to gather in the area. Using his old school microphone, tweeter and a generator, 3 boxes with 3 live snakes inside, chick, egg and white mouse, he caught the attention of the viewers. But in the end, they are selling the Tawas (Alum). The magician explained well what are the benefits of this Alum, as they said, you will be protected with "Pikpik" or any form of witchcraft that may kill you. This is how it looks like. "Tawas nga Tapol"



The price is P20 pesos each. I bought 1 because I want to experience something supernatural but a man (introduced to me as the owner), also let me try the swertres luck. He gave me this:



Someone approached secretly. He said, I'm the owner and I will give you this opportunity. This is just a secret way to win Swertres. When you win, please don't forget us, but of course, we can assure you that you will win, here's the lucky number "158 or 207" for 2 days bet. You can bet for only P40 or P20 but not P50. Here's my phone number, please contact us if you win, because I can assure you that you will win, we will be calling the bet center for this. Surely you can share to me P1,800. But I am not asking you yet for that amount, what I am asking you is only for PLDT card to contact the bet center which is P300, we need to buy a card. I replied, "I'm sorry, I don't have that money", but the man is eager and insisted any amount, I gave P100 just to stop bothering me because it is a simple hold up but in a form of a scam. I was astounded with what happened. What came to my mind is that I have a great experience because I already know their modus and how they get money to any victim. I was a victim but an opportunity for me to post a credible story since I experienced it personally. I recommend to some, never be deceived with these experienced, organized, syndicated group of scammers on the street. I then smiled and said "Damn, I'm a fool!"

I also found this information same experience I had. Here's the link:

EAR CANDLING EXPERIENCE: HELPED ME? OR SCAMMED ME?



Out of my curiosity, I bought an ear candle. It was sold as P60 each some selling it online for P100, 2pcs in one pack. I saw the pictures in the marketing ads that can remove ear waxes. I'm so excited because at last, my ear will be refreshed. As working in a call center industry, we are engaged with tremendous calls everyday and we need to have a clear audio sound so we can understand the issue of the callers. So I bought 2 pieces so I reserved the other one for future use. I followed the instruction on how to use it. 




First, you need to have a lighter, a paper plate or any disc (make a hole in the middle to insert the candle) for any burning protection, glass of water, and then the candle. I lighted up the the candle and inserted it to my ear, I heard burning sound but I don't feel any pulling up effect inside my ear, I was thinking that it was vaporized and filtered by the candle's sponge filter. Then when the fire reached the end line, soaked the candle to a glass of water to end the fire. 




I opened the candle and I saw the waxes. I was so astounded because there are so much ear waxes taken off from my ear but I don't feel anything happened. I started to wonder how it works and how it goes to the internal part of the candle when it was blocked by a foam filter. How it surpassed the sponge filter? 


I started to make my own experiment by burning the candle. When I discovered that when the candle (a cloth coated with candle) burned, it created a wax. I smelled it, and it was completely just a candle. Therefore, I concluded that I was then scammed. I did a lot of research and I found some articles from these blogs, http://www.quackwatch.com/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/candling.html, and from Audiology Online, http://www.audiologyonline.com/articles/ear-candling-fool-proof-method-1010. 


This product still exist in the market and even in Instagram or Facebook. I am not saying that you have to stop buying this kind of product but I am just sharing my experience. You can try it on your own and so you will experience it too and then you'll judge. In fact, I still have one and I will just keep it for memorabilia.

WORKING IN A CAR SALES - INCOME GENERATING TRICKS



I worked in a popular car brand in which I discovered a lot of tricks to generate income aside from the monthly salary.

It's not that easy to sell a brand new car. You need to have a strong interpersonal skill to connect with prospecting clients and to build a long term relationship. I want to show you the flow of the routine in sales.

If your in the showroom:

You need to prepare the following:

1. Your prospect list (noted from your organizer or record book) 
2. If you have a tablet, ipad or laptop, that would be an easy access
3. A gel pen or sign pen for signatures (How about Parker)
4. Computation sheet
5. Clearbook with set of brochures or flyers for any updated marketing campaign.
6. Brochure of accessories
7. Ofcourse, your Smartphone (All Networks would be better, the Smartest price smartphone, you're "IN")

4 Ways to gather prospects:

1. Walk in
2. Inbound Call (Direct call to the dealership)
3. Sales Call out of the showroom
4. Courtesy call to bank managers

Once you were able to gather list of prospects, that's the time you will make follow up calls. Variation would be 3 days, 7 days or after a month. During the first conversation/visit, your target is to close the deal. But if the client still undecided, you need to maintain a database of the client's information under your name. Every car dealership, they have their own software for database.

Strategy on providing quotation/computation to the clients:

The dealership has their own discounting. The discounting is been formulated by the higher department as part of the Marketing strategy. The Sales Consultant/Sales Executive/Marketing Professional sometimes give the full discount depends on the client's profile. The discounts can be converted to accessories. Then you will get a commission of selling the accessories for the vehicle. Other strategy is to save at least 5-10K for the tipster fee. Some of the dealerships not allowing agents to allocate tipster fee, but some are giving this privilege.

What is a Tipster Fee? 

The tipster fee is a legally approved fee to be given to a specific person who assisted to close the deal with the client. The tipster should have a close communication with the prospect. The tipster should have a bank account and a TIN number. The fee shall be deposited to the Tipster account. Some agents look for a tipster (A dummy) to deposit the account.

How the commission computation goes:

For financing, the agent can get 1% to 5% sales incentive to be given by the company, but there are banks giving more than 5% if direct loan. There are dealership has an in-house financing that giving out 2.5% on the amount financed.

Example:

Unit Price: 1,000,000
Down payment: 20%: 200,000
Amount Financed: 800,000

Commission: 2.5%: PHP 20,000

Then if outside insurance: Range 3,000 to 10,000 depends on how expensive the car.

Plus accessories: Maybe 10,000

Plus Unit Commission: 1,000 to 5,000

And other bonuses.

See, that is only for one car. If you work hard, you can definitely get what you want. Enjoy selling! :-)
