Blog entry #1

My group members for social media marketing module are Zong Wei , Wei Jie , Zyi , Qi Wen , Roseann and me.

For 22nd April 2015

Our team decided to pitch to Made Real SG because we think that Made Real SG is actually helping the eating disorder and obesity people to have an opportunity to change their lifestyle and have a positive body image. Also, we share the same beliefs as Made Real SG and we hope to pitch to them but there were two more groups of people who also want to pitch to Made Real SG. I felt the competiveness. Thus , Robin and Roslyn decided to give us a day to think of a rough idea on a campaign and they will choose the best one and we were chosen as the all males group chose to pitch to another company and the all females group decided to pitch to beauty space. We get the chance to pitch to the Made Real.

With Ms Dora's help in creating the whatsapp chat group for the Made Real SG and added Robin and Roslyn in.

For 28th April 2015

Its an honour of me to work with them and today 28/4/2014 around 10am we went to SMU and met Robin and Roslyn the co founders of Made Real SG. Its our first meeting outside Singapore Polytechnic. we were tasked on finding out information on virality, a/b testing and Facebook VS google ads. and share today during the meeting.

I was feeling excited to meet with them because this is a totally new experience for me as this is an opportunity for me to work with real clients and I received another task on reading the Instagram and Facebook page of Made Real SG to find out more about their beliefs and goals and what kind of events they hold. Me and Wei Jie are in charge the web development. Zyi and Roseann are in charge of the social media platform. Qi Wen and Zong Wei are in charge of the research.

I think that Made Real is an organisation that help the eating disorder and obesity people to have an opportunity to change their way of living to have a better lifestyle. I would like to promote this Made Real organisation to everyone whom I know.

  Moving on to our second meeting with Robin and Roslynyoung founder of MadeReal. This is our first meeting outside with them after our first meeting of pitching with MadeReal organized by Ms Dora in school on 22 April 2015.

Our group consists of  ZongWei, Zyi, Roseann, GingYang, WeiJie and me made our way to Bras Basah on 28 April 2015 morning for a short meetup. Robin and Roslyn briefed us on the concept of MadeReal. For the past few campaign they have organized seems to be successful as there is quite a number of participants posting pictures on Instagram about how great it is and how happy they felt. We were separated into three groups to focus on different aspect. Their target for us is to raise approximately 200 plus likes on facebook or Instagram. This is to raise awareness of MadeReal’s products to the public little by little. We were invited to do this project in their office whenever we are free. It is then so much convenient for as to ask them any queries when we are in doubt. After all the discussion and planning for the next meetup, we thanked them and went off.


I think this is a great experience for everyone because we get a chance to learn something new through this activity. It’s a hands-on experience which we can then learn and apply it in the future.

My group consists 6 of us, Roseann,  Qiwen, GingYang, WeiJie, ZongWei and me.

It's our first assignment to kick start our Poly life and we are working with a local company established by SMU students, Made Real SG. These SMU students created this company with a goal to empower a positive self- and body-imagine through nutrition, self-love and fitness. 

Our group of 6 had the opportunity to experience a face to face chance with the 2 co-founders of Made Real SG, Robin and Roslyn, all  arranged by Ms Dora. We had a good one hour to sit down and interact with them on their expectations before working with them. During our time together we learnt that Made Real SG is a very goal oriented company and they have given us a chance to propose our campaign ideas. We had many potential ideas in mind such as mini giveaway to attract netizens and social media addicts.  

In the evening, Ms Dora initiated on a whatsapp group among the 6 of us and Robin and Roslyn in order to keep in contact and liaise with each other, with this it allows convience in regards for future meet ups. 

After our first conversation through the chat group, we are advancing to the next stage of our assignment soon. Also, after breaking the ice with Robin and Roselyn i personally felt that they are very easy to work with and are very friendly clients. I am sincerely looking forward to working with them and to perform in my assignment in order to better our future work relationship.

Following are the ways to contact Made Real SG:

  1. You can visit them at madereal.sg
  2. Mail them at hello@madereal.sg
  3. Fb message them at Made Real
  4. Follow them on instagram at maderealsg
  5. Tweet them at MadeRealSG

  During the first meeting with the potential client, there is two other groups that are also pitching for MadeReal. The founders of MadeReal talked to us about their goals of the company. I really think it is very meaningful. Other than selling healthy snacks and products, they also want to promote healthy living. They do not just stop after selling their product and earning the money. Also, their concept of delivering the box of snacks to their buyer house is a very unique concept. That is why I wants to pitch to MadeReal. 
  During the talks with the founders, we got a edge over the other two group as we have a slideshow prepared already. We show them the idea we have like campaigns to help them gain more Likes and Views for their website. 
  After the talk, we were just throwing out our ideas for the campaign to boost their views on our WhatsApp group chat. Then we message them on Facebook to inform them of the ideas. We eventually got MadeReal as our client as the other groups did not want MadeReal anymore.

The company that our team decided to work with is MadeReal, their address is MadeReal  and their email is hello@madereal.sg

Our team met the co-founders of MadeReal, Robin and Roslyn, in school for the first time on 22 April 2015 around 4pm. The first meeting was set up by Ms Dora as MadeReal was one of the companies one our potential client list.

We spoke to Robin and Roslyn for roughly an hour and we asked them what they expected of our team if we worked with them. They told us that they wanted us to raise awareness for their brand. They also stated that MadeReal was very goal oriented and that they would leave it up to us to decide what were the ways in which we wanted to raise brand awareness for them. Our team, in turn, told them our ideas to raise awareness for them, ideas such as posting photos of their products on our social media websites, via a powerpoint slide that we had put together beforehand.

There was originally another team that wanted to work with them, so we had to put together a campaign idea to send to them via Facebook and they would pick the team with the best campaign idea. However, the next day the other team decided to withdraw and therefore MadeReal chose our team to work with.
