- Group 3]]> 2021-10-19 06:51:15 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826328979 biancabuenaventura1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826626589 1. Social Media Marketing- "social media has always been a widespread means of communication and marketing, more so since the start of the pandemic and lockdowns. Imagine how much more in demand it'll be when companies and small business start utilizing this commercial strategy in daily business operations."

2. Online Therapy- "I don't know about other people but personally I think a lot of people would benefit from discrete therapy considering the mental effects of the pandemic. Not to mention, since it would be online there would be less shame in having online therapy sessions because people they personally know wouldn't...well know-"

3. Virtual Assistants- There was a time in the middle of the pandemic when there gained a high demand in virtual assistants for big and small businesses alike. It's convenient for students still in school to earn some money, and experience, plus the position will continue to grow more in demand in the future because of all the technological conveniences people have realized come of it because of the pandemic."

]]> 2021-10-19 09:22:10 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826626589 biancabuenaventura1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826631671 1. Zoom- "very good for uh- reunions and stuff, especially long distance when you cant travel to see your relatives, friends, etc."

2. Grab (Delivery Services)- "It's honestly super convenient for ordering not just take out, but having things delivered from one place to another, and etc."

3. Online Tutors- "I think it would be easier and more normalized to incorporate online schooling for students, cause it's been working for 2 years here so far. Not to mention the lighter workload in general, and the comfort of home."

]]> 2021-10-19 09:24:59 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826631671 biancabuenaventura1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826639312 1. Discord- "way more convenient to Messenger in my opinion. (you can share screen without your own video dissapearing, you can listen to music through the discord bots, servers, etc.)"

2. mobile grooming service (pet products and services)- "I don't really know how to elaborate on this one besides the fact that any kind of service actually would be in demand. We can't really go out because of the pandemic and having services come to you is just a lot easier for a lot of people."

3. commercial cleaning services- "same reason as no.2"

]]> 2021-10-19 09:29:22 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826639312 biancabuenaventura1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826651310 1. Resorts/ Hotels- "I think resorts and stuff is definitely something that would be in demand lalo na when restrictions hopefully lighten up."

2. Fitness and Wellness programs - "I'm not really sure if many would agree but I think a lot of people are eager to get back into the gym, or at least have a steady plan to get fit in the comforts of home first."

3. Any delivery service- "They were convenient before the pandemic honestly, but even more so during it, so I think they'd still be in high demand after it albeit not as much because people would be able to go out."

4. Public transport- "same reasons as the delivery services"

5. Facials, Wax jobs, Treatments, etc. - "I think a lot of these are pretty hard to do by yourself from home so these establishments opening again would be a great help to the public."

]]> 2021-10-19 09:35:53 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826651310 biancabuenaventura1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826656877 1. Shoppee and Lazada- "It's honestly easier to order things you need or want online, instead of going out and looking for that specific thing you want to buy; you could always just look it up on one of those apps and it would be more affordable. Of course, it comes with t's disadvantages but I think the advantages that come with it are sometimes worth it."

2. Live Online Selling- "Kind of related to the first but this is also easier for sellers who want to introduce their product  authentically."

3. Gcash and Paypal- "It's been so convenient to have these apps generated because not everyone has enough time to go to a bank to transfer or loan money, load, etc."]]> 2021-10-19 09:39:08 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826656877 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826748042 Grab - I use this for items that need to be sent over to any of my friends or family. This becomes super convenient especially when I'm not allowed to go outside. 

Shoppee - A lot of the stuff I buy is from here during the height of the pandemic. 

Online Videochat Platforms (especially Discord hehe) - This is super helpful especially with connecting with other friends and family who i can't meet up with physically. ]]> 2021-10-19 10:34:18 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826748042 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826758528 Zoom - needless to say, Zoom has been the go-to application of most schools considering this new set-up, particularly, those who follow an online set-up. Zoom helps connect the teachers to its students with the use of its features. 

Canva - for a not-so-creative me, Canva has helped me create diagrams and posters needed for several of my subjects. Usually, these tasks occupy a huge percentage of our grades. Hence, without this application, it would've been difficult for me to perform well and execute the tasks considering that I am not so artsy as mentioned above.

Discord - Messenger has been an easy application to use, however, there are several features where Discord has an edge over Messenger. Discord has helped me connect with people in several ways without any difficulty such as (but is not limited to): voice chats, video calls, and chatting (which are evidently in Messenger but is comparatively easy to do in Discord).]]> 2021-10-19 10:41:26 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826758528 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826759295 1.) Grab - For it allows people to deliver not just things from place to place but also food and be able to make someone buy for them.

2.) Shopee/Lazada - People can buy almost anything in one click which serves as a way of keeping sane of many people nowadays. 

3.) Zoom/Gmeet/Discord - Allows people to engage with other people despite being from different places. People get to enjoy the company of other people outside their house. ]]> 2021-10-19 10:41:59 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826759295 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826776098 Laptop/PC businesses/sellers: These products have been a staple for students as they undergo online learning. They need them to access school files, type in documents, attend online meets, and others use them for leisure. 

Grab/Lalamove: I usually use these apps to send over stuff to my friends or family as it's more convenient and safer than going out yourself. It has also provided a lot of employment opportunities to motorcycle riders.

GCash: Probably the most famous cashless payment method in the Philippines, I practically use this app to pay everything I need, and many others can say the same. Even onsite retailers are encouraging their customers to use GCash as they provide a QR code by the cashier for us to scan and pay.]]> 2021-10-19 10:53:11 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826776098 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826784813 1.  Food Delivery Services: Grabfood/Ubereats/FoodPanda etc. Physically going to restaurants during the COVID19 pandemic is dangerous as such online food delivery apps have been essential. 

2. Online Games/Entertainment:
As previously mentioned most people are spending their times indoors to lower the chances of getting infected with COVID19 so most people aren't able to entertain themselves with things that require you to go outside. To combat the boredom that follows not being able to leave your house, I think a lot of people are looking to Online games/entertainment. 

3. Online Shopping
I think there's a boost to online distributers like Lazada, Amazon, Shoppee, (FB marketplace sorta) because people are staying in doors but still need to shop. I think a lot of people are also opening up to it because they've realized how convenient it is. ]]> 2021-10-19 10:58:34 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826784813 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826802389 1. Canva Premium - For a person who isn't good with presentation and design, Canva offers easy-to-use presentation software with a handful amount of templates.

2. Delivery Services - People can't do any physical shopping whether food, clothing, or items. People rely on online shops which result in an increase in delivery services.

3. Movie services - Movie services such as Netflix has the potential to grow especially in the pandemic because physical theatres are closed. People stay at home which they get bored of so they resort to looking for things to do, and one of those is watching movies.

People need laptops for their work-from-home and online distance learning set-ups.
 
2. Face Mask
This is required when you go out.

3. Online Shopping Apps
People do not go out often anymore because of the risk of getting infected with COVID, and so, for them to continue to buy their wants and needs without going out, these would be helpful.]]> 2021-10-19 11:14:03 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826809268 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826860210 1. grab- it is convenient for ordering food with out going outside

2. Pc builders- because of the pandemic alot of people are now working/ studying online so they need a computer to work.

3. Lazada- because of the pandemic people can not go out and shop, that is why lazada will do well in the pandemic.]]> 2021-10-19 11:44:31 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826860210 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826951731 1. Grab and food panda
-They allow you to buy from restaurants near from you and have it delivered to your house. These apps also provides jobs for people during the pandemic.

2. Netflix
- They feature numerous shows that cater to people who like different genres. 

3. Lazada and shopee
- They allow people to buy products they want and have it delivered to your house. It's a convenient way for us to shop. ]]> 2021-10-19 12:26:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1826951731 jaysonjorvina1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1827166693 1. Shopee
- This is where people nowadays shop for wants and needs.

2. Metromart
- Due to the pandemic people are afraid of going to crowded places like groceries and this app helped people to avoid going to groceries since the app offers to do it for you.

3. Canva
- Used for making presentations for school and work with a lot of features that can be used.]]> 2021-10-19 13:32:02 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1827166693 rolandobalgos1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829302303 Face Masks
Given how easily Covid-19 has been spreading, it is important that we keep safe by covering what we can cover, most importantly the face area.

Tech Providers
Due to the online set-up, many Filipinos need to adjust by either upgrading their current technology or simply purchasing new ones.

Courier Services
Brought by the Covid restrictions, face-to-face businesses were forced to close. This resulted to the transferring or opening of numerous online stores. A lot of these stores make use of the different courier services in order to transport product.]]> 2021-10-20 04:05:17 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829302303 harleyreburiano1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829340394 1. Online Shopping Outlets (Metromart, Shoppee, Lazada, Food Panda, Grab)
- Since there are some restrictions that hinder some, especially minors and senior citizens, to go out, people just rely on online shopping outlets like such for their day-to-day needs and wants. 

2. Face Masks and other personal protective equipment
- Obviously, because of the virus, it is important that people keep themselves protected, even with just a simple face mask. 

3. Online Meeting Platforms (Zoom, GMeet, Discord, Microsoft Teams)
- Given that physical interaction is highly discouraged and even restricted in some areas, such services and programs are used for important meetings. ]]> 2021-10-20 04:31:03 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829340394 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829352713
  • Shopee 
    • - served as our new shopping area or marketplace because we’re restricted to go out during the lockdown. 

    2. Grab food
    - grab food is very convenient especially with the situation that we’re in today. Since we are prohibited to go outside, grab is capable of delivering our favorite meals from our favorite restaurants, that we can enjoy in our very own home. 


    ]]>     2021-10-20 04:39:10 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829352713     endirajtapales1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829378470 1. Health Services
    These services make up an essential part of the public service sector, and their departments are responsible for the overall health and well-being of the communities they serve. While their main focus is general health and wellness, health services also provide treatment and care to members of the community who otherwise have no healthcare.

    2. Online Shopping Platforms
    Consumers are also making more direct purchases online and via their smartphones. Because of the numerous advantages and benefits, it is convenient to do online shopping over traditional shopping. The internet makes managing business enormously easier and faster. It’s led to variations in the way people create a business with a rapidly growing worldwide trend towards online shopping.

    3. Online Banking
    It is secured and convenience guaranteed. We can easily access our funds for emergency purposes, and the need to wait in long queues at the bank is no longer advised.

    ]]>     2021-10-20 04:55:16 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829378470     https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829907230 Online Markets such as Shopee and lazada - E-commerce has taken over the world ever since the 21st century due to its growing convinience . It benefits more during the pandemic as it fulfills the societal need of a form of interaction in exchanging goods. As this form of market media becomes more relevant, its market will continue to grow.
     
    Online acessible couriers(Grab/lalamove) - Just like e-commerce, it fulfills the need of social interaction in exchanging goods during this time of quarantine. As long as it provides its convinient service of bringing someone's good, it will stay relevant.

    Streaming websites(Youtube/Twitch) - Online media entertainment will continue to grow and just got bigger during pandemic since we cannot physically find entertainment(ex. Watching sports in stadiums).




    ]]>     2021-10-20 10:11:13 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829907230     https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829967564 1. Shoppee and Lazada (online selling platforms)- Through these platforms, we are able to conveniently buy foods and goods in a more safe manner.

    2. Video chatting platforms, such as Discord and Zoom- Allow us to stay connected with friends and family. Convenient and easy way to organize meetings for projects.

    3. Netflix (streaming platforms)- Give us a way to be entertained through various series and films of various genres. 


    ]]>     2021-10-20 10:47:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1829967564     https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830207378 1. Online Marketplaces
    I think E-commerce companies such as Shopee and Lazada will do well during the ongoing pandemic. It is really convenient, especially in our current situation wherein we are discouraged to go outside, because we can buy our needs and wants and have it delivered to our houses.

    2. Food delivery services
    Like I said, nothing is more convenient than having something delivered to your home. Although the number of people that can dine in restaurants is limited, individuals can just order meals via food delivery apps such as Foodpanda and GrabFood.

    3. Supermarkets
    I think supermarkets like Puregold have always been successful. But due to the recent demand in toilet paper and rubbing alcohol, these types of retail businesses have definitely thrived during the pandemic. In addition, people would usually stock up on supplies in preparation for lockdowns.]]>     2021-10-20 12:47:24 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830207378     https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830279887 1. Zoom/GMeet/Discord – Helps in connecting people together especially in this online set-up. This is currently the only way friends and family can talk to each other in the means of voice/video call. 

    2. Shopee & Lazada – Allowed minors to buy items since minors were not allowed to go outside due to restrictions of the government. 

    3. Sanitary Items (Facemask, Alcohol, etc.) – Definitely a need during the pandemic to avoid being infected by COVID-19. ]]>     2021-10-20 13:11:06 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830279887     jaimecuadrante1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830280298 1. Online Group Bonding Services 
    - People are looking for more creative ways to bond with their friends online. We can see how crucial these platforms are with the rise in use of platforms such as the previously discontinued backyard.io, discord, and garctic/scribbl.io games. 

    2. Food Bundle Services
    -Having to source out different suppliers for certain groceries/foods can be a real hassle in the COVID scenario. Having a trusted-consolidated source of such would alleviate the hassle of purchasing such. 

    3. Hobby Kits
    -Covid has made a lot of people bored with the unexpected abundance of free time. People want to experience new things, new fun things. Hobby kits provide users with a sample test to test the waters to see if they like any certain hobby.]]>     2021-10-20 13:11:13 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830280298     GEGEGEGGEGEGEGEGE matthewbaluis1 https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830288711 Delivery Services - This is popular now and is still on the rise because of the lockdown.

    Face Mask - COVID has made this product a necessity and we never know if there will be a disease like this again.

    Alcohol - People experienced COVID and are now better aware of how useful this product really is.]]>     2021-10-20 13:13:46 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830288711     https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830303098 1. Subscription video on-demand streaming service (e.g., Netflix, HBO Max)
    The pandemic has caused many people to stay at home, desolating movie theaters. This would make television networks, such as Netflix, successful as it allows people to watch films and tv series while stuck at home, through a paid subscription.

    2. E-wallet (GCash, Paymaya)
    As I mentioned, the pandemic instilled fear in people who want to go outside. Furthermore, it has caused strict safety measures, making it difficult for people who need to pay bills or deposit money at banks. This would make online payments seem more viable.

    3. Food delivery services (foodpanda, GrabFood)
    Currently, dine-in services in many restaurants are limited to observe social distancing. As a consequence, many people have resorted to apps that delivers food from nearby restaurants to their houses.]]>     2021-10-20 13:17:57 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830303098     (/._.)/ https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830321414 1) Delivery Services
    Goods and products still need to travel between the suppliers, wholesalers, retailers, and consumers. There is still the hesitation with behaviours of going out. Getting someone else to delivery something tackles that pain point.

    2) Plants and Gardening Supplies
    Rising trend of plantitos and plantitas are occurring since people are looking at different avenues to pass the time. It's difficult to plant without the tools so there's also a correlated demand between the two products. Also, plants are just nifty.

    3) Computers
    Work-at-home is difficult without a device. With more firms, companies, and schools adapting to an online scenario, there's a greater need for computers in order to accomplish tasks. In other words, the scenario creates a greater demand.]]>     2021-10-20 13:23:19 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830321414     sashadejesus https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830324412 1. Video Conferencing Services (i.e. Zoom, GMeet, etc.) - Most people are unable to leave their homes due to lockdown restrictions, and so video conferencing services are a good way for them to stay in touch with their loved ones despite these limitations. Additionally, it is also useful for school, work meetings, conferences, webinars, etc. Essentially, it's a very helpful alternative to physical gatherings.

    2. Disinfectant products - This is useful in preventing the spread of COVID-19, as it is transmissible through droplets.

    3. Messaging apps - Same principle as the first item: it helps people stay connected despite the limitations brought about by lockdown restrictions.]]>     2021-10-20 13:24:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830324412     https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830388121 1. Delivery Services
    - a lot of people are at home and due to this, online shopping is at high demand, which is why delivery services are really essential right now

    2. Workout Equipment
    - when it is hard to go to gyms these days, people are starting to look for different ways on how to stay fit and healthy, which is why workout equipment is pretty much an essential for people that are fond of staying in shape

    3. Baking Equipment
    - while several people are at home, they would like to have a side hobby to keep them busy. One hobby that I've seen arose in this pandemic is baking, which is why baking equipment are at demand now.]]>     2021-10-20 13:41:42 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830388121     reginaym https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830390696 (1) Healthcare and medical companies
    Health and medical companies, whether they produce PPEs, rubbing alcohol, vitamins, or provide medical insurance, are more significant than ever. Given the current state of the world, many are either more susceptible to illness or want to ensure they are safe from it.

    (2) Technology - applications, devices
    Lockdown and quarantine restrictions have impeded social interaction and daily routines. Thus, the need for cellphones, computers, and various apps (e.g. communications, banking, delivery, retail, social media) has proven to be monumental for domestic, social, and business purposes.

    (3) Courier services
    As I mentioned, pandemic-related restrictions have had an impact on daily routine. Less people are able to physically attend to errands, whether that be going to a restaurant or personally delivering a birthday gift to a friend. Consequently, more and more people are patronizing delivery services like Lalamove, Mr. Speedy, and Grab. ]]>     2021-10-20 13:42:22 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830390696     https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1830436932 1. Online Banking/Payment Services
    - Online payment/banking is so easy now. Contactless payment is possible and most payments can be done through this.

With the restrictions of the pandemic, many revert to platforms such as shopee and lazada to not only buy essentials, but also to relieve stress and have some retail therapy.

    Hotel/Villa/Resort Accommodations: Local business in this field especially, are seen thriving throughout the pandemic. This is the best thing people can get after the now tedious task of traveling whilst obeying safety protocol. People just want an escape from reality and accommodations offer just that.

    Fast-Food: Fast-Food especially through delivery apps are one of the most convenient forms of dining. With the bombardment felt with the pandemic, many choose to buy premade dishes to satiate themselves. Chains are also seen taking advantage of the pandemic by introducing new menu offerings to keep customers enticed and interested.

However, when it struck, I used it more and it has become a habit for me to scroll through the app almost everyday to scroll through affordable things that I might want to buy. Many of the items are also way cheaper than if you buy from actual physical stores.

    grab- My family uses this app a lot whenever no one has the time to cook dinner, which is often 1-2 times a week or when we are craving restaurant food. Grab offers the convenience and safety of enjoying good food without the risk or hassle of going out of your house. They also offer different offers/deals from time to time that make ordering more enticing.

    canva- This has been a lifesaver for me as a student. I use it for every creative output asked for us because it is versatile and easily allows you to collaborate with others. The collaboration feature, and it's user-friendly features make it more enticing to use most of the time, compared to more advanced softwares like photoshop or procreate.]]>     2021-10-21 01:45:43 UTC https://padlet.com/rolandobalgos1/xkqd7c8fc6mp8q5t/wish/1832151087
