Support Pregnant Mothers and Newborns in Need with Mama’s Choice “Buy 1, Give 1” Campaign for National Women’s Month

Support Pregnant Mothers and Newborns in Need with Mama’s Choice “Buy 1, Give 1” Campaign for National Women’s Month

In celebration of National Women’s Month, Mama’s Choice launches the “Buy 1, Give 1” campaign, an initiative to make a difference in the lives of pregnant mamas and newborns in crisis.

Mama’s Choice, a leading brand in Southeast Asia for safe, effective, and natural products for mamas and babies with a 200,000-strong community in the Philippines, proudly announces the launch of its “Buy 1, Give 1” campaign in line with National Women’s Month this March and International Women’s Day on March 8, 2024.

During the entire month of March, Mama’s Choice will donate one Mama’s Choice Stretch Mark Cream or Mama’s Choice Stretch Mark Serum for every unit sold to Grace To Be Born Maternity Home and Nursery, a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to providing a safe and loving environment for pregnant unwed mamas and children born into challenging circumstances. Since its foundation in 2009, the Pasig-based maternity home and nursery have helped 355 families in the Philippines. 

“Our collaboration with Grace To Be Born Maternity Home and Nursery is not only a way for Mama’s Choice to give back to the community, but to also give our community an opportunity to support fellow mamas in need. The ‘Buy 1, Give 1’ initiative exemplifies inclusivity by getting all pregnant mamas involved, whether as a giver or a receiver,” shares Adeline Djohan, regional head of branding for Mama’s Choice Philippines, Malaysia, and Singapore.For every Mama's Choice Stretch Mark Serum or Stretch Mark Cream sold, one unit will be donated to Grace To Be Born Maternity Home and Nursery

“We deeply understand the concerns and needs of mamas and mamas-to-be. During pregnancy, a woman experiences not only many changes in her body but also the multitude of worries that go with these changes. Will her pregnancy acne go away? Will her hair grow back? Will her stretch marks fade? In fact, through our market research, we’ve found that stretch marks are the top skin problem among Filipino mamas during and after pregnancy*,” Djohan adds. 

“So if we can tackle this one thing that mamas associate with negative feelings and self-consciousness, that’s one less worry for them and one big win for us as we work towards empowering mamas to achieve smooth skin and beautiful bellies throughout their pregnancies. So we thank Grace To Be Born for this magnanimous opportunity to create a meaningful impact together in our shared mission to support Filipino mamas.” 

Grace To Be Born Maternity Home and Nursery conducts free regular prenatal exercises for pregnant mamas

Shellie Follero, Assistant Manager for Fundraising at Grace To Be Born Maternity Home and Nursery, expresses, “We welcome mothers of various backgrounds to our home. Single mothers, homeless mothers, pregnant teens, physically and emotionally abused wives—they all come to us seeking shelter and a way to attain self-autonomy, get back on their feet, and be able to support themselves and their children. This partnership with Mama’s Choice is a beautiful initiative to remind our mothers that they are beautiful inside and out, that they are not alone, and that they deserve the love and support that the community bestows on them. We can’t wait to see the joy in the mothers’ faces when they receive the Mama’s Choice gifts from their fellow mothers!”

The “Buy 1, Give 1” initiative aligns with Mama’s Choice commitment to not only provide products for mamas and babies, but to also give back to the community and support those facing difficulties during pregnancy. By participating in the campaign, customers become a part of the collective effort to make a positive impact on the lives of pregnant mamas and newborns in crisis.

Mama’s Choice encourages everyone to participate and spread the word about this meaningful initiative. Together, we can contribute to creating a world where every mama and child receive the care and support they rightfully deserve.

*Based on a 2023 Mama’s Choice Brand Survey with 801 Filipino mothers, who claimed to have experienced these skin problems during and after pregnancy: stretch marks (81% of respondents) followed by hair loss (73%) and dry and dull skin (40%)

IDX Channel Exclusive Interview with the CEO of RevComm, a Startup Providing Analytical AI Telephone System for Sales Performance

IDX Channel Exclusive Interview with the CEO of RevComm, a Startup Providing Analytical AI Telephone System for Sales Performance

Takeshi Aida, founder and CEO of RevComm, conducted an exclusive interview with IDX Channel to discuss the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance productivity and boost business sales.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a rapidly advancing technology. RevComm, the sole Asian company listed in Forbes’ Top AI 50 2023, optimizing AI for improved business productivity and sales with their innovative product MiiTel—an AI-driven conversation analysis tool designed for telephone, online meetings, and face-to-face communications. During the exclusive interview with IDX Channel on February 15, 2023, Takeshi Aida elaborated on how MiiTel, as an AI-based technology, can benefit businesses.

Can you explain RevComm’s business and what kind of products the company produces?

RevComm is a B2B SaaS company. We are providing a voice analysis AI tool called MiiTel. We are the only Asian AI startup selected in the Top AI 50 by Forbes and Sequoia, alongside ChatGPT OpenAI, Mid Journey, Cohere, and others.

MiiTel is a voice analysis AI tool, it analyzes what and how to talk between reps and customers or boss and employees, whoever it is, internal communication, external communication. We optimize conversation to increase productivity and we have approximately more than 60,000 customers globally based in Japan, Indonesia, US, and Philippines.

What kind of business is being a loyal customer of MiiTel itself?

We can contribute to any business, any layer, like executive layer, supervisor layer, management or player, any layer, any industry. But it is well suited for business that involve frequent verbal communication via telephone, web conference, and face-to-face interactions. Specifically, it is particularly compatible with sales and call center operations, where it directly impacts sales and customer satisfaction. For example, industries like real estate, insurance, finance, banking, they communicate a lot of verbal communication via phone, web meeting, and face-to-face. So we can contribute to increase the sales conversion rate, NPS, customer satisfaction rate, employee satisfaction rate, these kinds of you know KPIs.

So one of the interesting features about MiiTel is transcript the conversation between the call center officer and then the customer, so it is making the job of the supervisor easier because they’re going to read it about the words that had been said by the call center to the customer. So how has the market received the presence of MiiTel so far?

We have more than 60,000 customers globally in just five years. So I think it tells you that the market is receiving very well and we have been able to contribute to increase their sales and decrease the cost. More specifically, if you only transcribe, and then what? So what, right? You have to summarize it and then automatically input it into the CRM or any system, and then the person in charge doesn’t have to input the result of the call so that you can increase productivity. So transcription itself is not valuable. If you can, summarize it and automatically input it into the CRM, and then you can decrease the after-core work and then increase the productivity. And the person who got shared, you know, you can eliminate the bias information to hedge compliance risk.

How can the products produced by RevComm impact users’ business development?

We build our system from scratch by ourselves. We have approximately 300 employees worldwide, and out of 300, 120 are engineers. And based on the customer’s voice, we continuously update our system to meet the customer’s needs. For example, not only what to speak, but also how to speak really affects the result of the call or sales, right? Like, you know, talk-list ratio, number of silences, interruptions, speech rate. These kinds of factors really affect the result of the sales. So based on the customer’s voice, we update these functions to increase the customer’s economic value.

How is the cooperation system between you, RevComm, and the clients? Is it contract-based? and the range of the fee service for the client if they want to use MiiTel as the apps for their business.

So it’s a subscription basis. This is a SaaS, cloud SaaS. And the price is only Rp 400,000. It’s super cheap, considering the economic value.

So we commit in the short term, we commit the profit and loss impact by increasing sales and reducing cost. In the mid and long term, what we are doing intrinsically is that it realizes balance sheet impact by transforming voice data into actionable data as valuable assets.

How is the guarantee of the security of that client’s data that processes for your services?

We comply with ISMS and GDPR, we cryptomize a whole data and store the data locally. So it complies fully with enterprise security standards.

What are the long-term targets of RevComm or MiiTel  in the future?

Our mission is to reinvent communication to build a society where people think about others. So by increasing productivity, we’d like to build a society where people think about others to increase the true communication.
