Back from Baguio...

yes, back to office again...sales, marketing, technical & guests of our company was in Baguio from July 7 to 11 for our mid-year business conference. It was one helluva of an event because our target for the year increased..first half of the year registered a very promising year end... we cant complain because along with the first semester performance is 10,000 worth of GC (mas ok GC para walang tax)... Whats even better? SALES TARGET DELIVERED EQUALS ASIAN TRIP & GC worth _ _,000... plus a $100 dollar/day pocket money!!!wooohhoooo!!!! all of us are pumped up to finish the year!!!!

All 158 pax travelled to Baguio via Victory liner... btw, the conference theme was REV UP, the ARMY way...I chaired the Logistic comittee...from the venue ambiance, paraphernalias, fellowship night uniform was army-inspired... we had dog tags as our ID...

we stayed at The Manor, Camp John Hay... sooo nice... food is ok too...we started the business mtg with a mass (one of our companys tradition)...what I did not like much are the morning drills... we get to wake up early...very early for the 5am formation at the 19th tee... drills were led by real cadets... whew!!! pero its part of the army-ish experience eh...

conference proper..as in presidents report & directions went very well... as for our part... we presented the 3rd Q marketing guidelines...

we also had city tour..majority of our Vis & min warriors are first timers in Baguio so the committee prepared the tour... we were like 12 vans (~10 pax per van)traversing PMA..Mines View, The Mansion... cyempre kodakan...LA Trinidad, though its off season for strawberry picking... we ended up buying veggies.. i bought brocolli, lettuce & baby potatoes...i had strawberry flavored taho too.. yum yum...then ang walang kamatayang ube jam @ Good Shepherd... we were not able to go to Burnham & Groto kasi its raining... instead, itinerary wa changed to SM as the lastere stop... ok naman, kasi kakaiba naman ang SM sa Baguio...

In all days... kulang sa tulog...kaya during sessions, I have to take paracetamol....

We left Baguio 7 am July 11 and was in our Manila office by 1:30 pm...i think this is the best business conference so far...

Now, am looking forward to my post entry about our company hitting the target this December....yahoo!!!!
