SAM VERZOSA Pronounces RHIAN RAMOS as His Dream Girl

Just got the chance to see Sam Verzosa today at the Kamuning Bakery Cafe. They were supposed to be guests at a conference set by its owner Wilson Lee Flores which mostly hosts political events, but this time, it's for entertainment. Unfortunately Rhian had to attend to some commitments because she's hosting a show "Where in Manila" in lieu of Sam's previous one "SV Cares" (in the same time slot). We saw a very giddy Sam and he was excited to share his recent successes including the increase in recent surveys at 38 percent.

"I already talked to a lot of people, and there's a lot of international film festivals and the Manila Film Festival is something that I'd want to do. Whatever experience I have in sales and marketing, I'll do it in Manila. As you know, foreigners only pass by the city and go to other places. I also want to do events in Intramuros, have press conferences like these inside the walls. There are restaurants, know some obstructions are there, we need to develop it and should be enjoyed by people. It's a combination of everything, cleanliness, renovation, even the Metropolitan Theater should be better promoted. We need to move events where we can maximize it. We work with what we have, it's not just selling properties, we need to use them too."

He adds "After receiving multiple philanthropist of the year, we just received the GUSI Peace Prize too. Manila properties need to be promoted right, we need to help local businesses because there's an opportunity for food, additional livelihood for Manileños so they have work."

He told us "Rhian isn't my ideal woman, she's my dream. She's so intelligent and have a huge heart. We plan to put up communities that has everything sustainable. We have the same goals, I thought I should do it elsewhere but I know we can do it in Manila. I've been a devotee of the Black Nazarene for over 16 years. I think I'd want a wedding in Quiapo Church. I want an even better looking Plaza Miranda, they've done it in Europe, why couldn't we do it here."

As for Holy Week activities he says "I hope you pray for the love, peace and prosperity. We'll be spending it by doing Visita Iglesia, 14 churches in Manila. We have been doing that with my Father ever since we were kids."

"I hope Rhian can help me promote Manila, not just the beauty of the place but promote businesses. She's my partner in life, I ask her often for decisions. For people, for SME's, it's easy to do Siomai carts (which was her idea). We'd want to have SIOMAYNILA in more places because right now, it's over 500 already. People are really becoming successful with it."

Sam hopes people see his sincerity and would want to participate in debates if organizations would invite him. He sees it as a platform where people could see that he's more action than just lip service. 

Frontrow's LUXXE WH!TE Does Crazy Launch for ULTIMATE LINE

When LUXXE WH!TE announced that they'd be discontinuing the existence of their products, folks have been airing their grievances online and in person at their headquarters in Quezon Avenue. For starters, it's their flagship product, people swear by it, celebrities endorsed it... so why in the world are they stopping production of it? We literally attended it's last day at the venue, present were the founders RS Francisco, Sam Verzosa and their COO Richmond Yu who initially was as sad as the rest of Frontrow's members.

After all the drama and crazy song and dance numbers by the RAMPA drag queens, this genius marketing execution suddenly took to stage as they announced their new LUXXE WH!TE ULTIMATE LINE. They also unveiled their endorsers Rhian Ramos and Michelle Dee with the new LUXXE WH!TE ULTIMA and LUXE WH!TE SLIM respectively, check out these new bottles!

Frontrow's LUXXE WH!TE ULTIMATE LINE

 

 The new packaging isn't just for lip service, because RS Francisco told us that they've made the actual capsules bigger, stronger and more effective. They're mantra, is to make sure they not just improve, but be THE STANDARD when it comes to supplements like these. These are also FDA approved and has gone through tons of tests before releasing in the market. This could also prevent competitors who have tried so hard to copy what they are doing. They even take it as a complement and have no plans to sue those who try (or will they?).

The extraordinary and bold marketing move proved to be effective, and now that they've got the new look and formulation SV says "This is the Frontrow way. We want to thank your team, RS who really thought about how to execute this. Richmond Yu told us that they've consulted different agencies but only got worried that it is still missing something. All along, they had the genius they need already in the company which is why THESE ALL HAPPENED!

 

Here's the press conference after the launch: 

 

Congratulations to RS Francisco, Sam Verzosa, and Richmond Yu, plus the countless men and women who did this launch. To say this is over the top would be a disservice to the whole Frontrow group. Congratulations also to Rhian Ramos and Michelle Dee for supporting the brand. 

An Unending Urge to Serve: Sam Verzosa

 

This is just one of the few instances where I met Congressman Sam Verzosa (of Tutok To Win Partylist), and yes he's been doing this even before he went into public service. Today was the same as he ventured into the inner streets of Manila, to say the least, spend time and effort for the people who live here. 

He's worked with organizations, in Frontrow Cares, and his show SV Cares in GTV to make sure that he could still lend a hand where he can. His story of success is amazing. Growing up in the streets of Sampaloc, Manila, he wanted to make sure his family would have food on the table, a livable income, and education. He didn't get this outright, so he had to device a way to use his street smarts to find and build a business that could finance his needs and his family. He now owns several businesses and was successful with it because he really worked hard for it. With his capacity yo earn, he now has the chance to help other people which is why he's doing this. He didn't just give rice and basic necessities, but also taught how they could have their own businesses so they too could fend for themselves. He's teaching them exactly what he learned from his life story, he did this in different parts of the Philippines and this time, he wanted to do it in his hometown Manila.

Here's our interview with him during his activities:

Sam says "This is really not just because I'm celebrating my birthday in a few days, this is something that I do on a normal day to help communities. I've been doing this for a while now. I'm glad that Frontrow Cares, different organizations, Tutok to Win, Batang Sampaloc Foundation and SV Cares have partnered up so we can do this for them. We are just continuously doing what we have been doing in the past. We are now in Pandacan, but this morning we also went to Sta. Mesa, Pandacan, Sta. Cruz, and not just give them necessities, but medical assistance too. People need their maintenance medicine, and we included that in our caravans."

He adds "I almost cried when I saw the crowd here earlier, they warmly welcomed me when I arrived. I went to different parts of Manila and it felt special. I received hugs, some people were crying, and this is one of the reasons why I want to do this more on ground. This is why I want to extend help, even if it's out of my pocket, because I have the capacity to do so and hope I could do this even more. As long as I have the capacity to help, I will do it." 

His unending urge to serve is evident, and for the people of Manila, who sees value in this, SV will be in your place soon. He promises to do this as long as he has got the capacity to help, and that's good news.
