From Raissa:

tanong ko lang... ano yung mga hinahanap ni mam sa

presentation ng feasib?
ma'am wants it to be professional. you know how much she loves the
"role-playing" thingie. pretend you're really officers/entrepreneurs
selling your idea. first, identify your audience. are they potential
creditors, investors, or what? then you tailor-fit your presentation to
who your audience is. kung creditors ang kausap nio, then ieemphasize
nio ang financial soundness ng business proposition. you give them the
relevant ratios.. you assure them na you can pay them back, how(from
what sources), and when.. tipong gnun.

if you're talking to investors, youd want to convince them of the

profitability of the business, the returns they can expect, so on. nung
class namin most of the groups (i think) presented to "investors." mas
fun kasi eh.. pag creditors parang ma-financial mshado..

rules niya regarding visual...kung simple lang ba or mahilig

siya sa mga effects effects...
i think she prefers simpler but effective ones. be careful in wanting to
impress her, ang importante malinaw yung graphs, pag may tables
maayos, at nababasa yung figures. it's important that you get your
message across, the visuals should only help and not distract. she got
really pissed with one group kasi yung tables hndi mabasa. eh she
wants to see the numbers nga diba. after that nasira na mood nia at
tinorture na nia yung group. all because of their tables. and we all
know her 7-words, 7-lines per slide rule. make sure that the colors do
not clash.. basta i-bagay nio sa feasib product/service nio. merong mga
namigay ng "actual" brochures, handouts but again, be careful of what
you'll put in there kasi most likely your classmates will base their
questions on what info you provide them. and if they dont listen well to
your presentation theyll just consult what you gave out. same with
ma'am. i dont recommend giving them a copy of anything financial..
haha.. pwede graphs/tables pero dpat "reasonable-looking." gets nio
na to!

i think ok lang magpa-effects but primary consideration tlga yung

material na ipepresent nio. mahahalata nman kasi pag for show lang
with no substance ;) but yes, it helps if maganda yung powerpoint,
maganda yung outfits nio (IMPORTANTE TO FOR ME! haha!)

gaano katagal yung reporting...

from what i recall, 20mins lang yung presentation. so all you have to
present is what really matters :) nung time namin she didnt bring the
hard copies so she totally relied on what was presented.
tapos yung mga tinatanong niya pag nag-report...
basically you will give your audience the information they need, and
would be most interested in :) from that, you can infer what kind of
questions ma'am will be asking. the questions will depend on what you
present, so i advise you to minimize presenting "questionable"
material. or better yet, master what you plan to present and make sure
that you cover all loopholes. know how to weedle your way out of stuff
you're not sure of.. basta if you present something
improvised/imaginary/sobrang barbero, stick to it and defend it. pero
ciempre you have to be careful na makalusot :) know your stuff! :)

maam's really particular with the FINANCIALS (we all know that hehe)
so if she sees something wrong she'll really point it out, or ask how you
got that, or why you used that formula. check your formulas (it benefits
to learn from the preceding groups.. kasi icocorrect na nia na ito dpat
yung formula na gagamitin, etc) so you MUST keep changing your "for
presentation" feasib in order to incorporate all the corrections that she
made, para wala nang mashadong matatanong. listen to all
presentations and make notes.. so when your turn comes, then youve
maximized the probability of she liking your feasib :)

IT'S IMPORTANT THAT YOU CONVINCE YOUR AUDIENCE (ma'am

particularly). do not make it sound like a feasib project. DO NOT
READ, try to do away with cue cards. do not put too much on the
slides. cue-words lang dpat, and from there you pick up what you
intend to say and you'll be the one to explain to the audience. do not
lose your audience to the slides, make them listen to you :) i-todo nio,
pangtotohanan tlga. be in your element :) magpaka-artista!

EXTRA: eto yung mga na-appreciate nia before (na naaalala ko)

paolo's group- map. maganda yung mapping nila ng cainta area ba

yun, tapos marked yung competitors etc. meron din silang wooden
easel showcasing info bout the company and their services.. ok yun! :)

shane's group- live fashion show! tarpaulins featuring fabulous and

gorgeous models! their product was really visible you could feel them
already :)

sushi's group- presentation. hands down. i wasnt there to witness it

pero from what i know, nadala tlga sha (ma;am) sa presentation, she
didnt notice the inconsistencies in the financials. she said there must
be something questionable pero parang pinalampas na lang nia kasi
sobrang impressed sha sa presentation. but then again, sila sushi kasi
yon eh.. kaka and co.. feeling ko pang PANA/stratmark yung
presentation nila ;)

samin- technical! haha, ang kapal. pero modesty aside, i remember

she complimented our technical kasi bat nga ba.. kinarir ata namin
yung "blue-print", merong mga kung ano-anong view (topographical
chevers, haha tama ba to) kasi we had professional help c/o maggie's
contact.. basta ang ganda nung ginawa, colored pa and everything.
nakakaexcite tingnan parang totoo! plus we had a scale model c/o
marian.. replica tlga. i think she liked that.

From Sol:
wow, sobrang bilis ng panahon no?
akalain mo, matatapos na kayo sa feasib...

pointers ON PRESENTATION: FLASHY, FLASHY, FLASHY!

hehehe...
lahat ng kaek-ekan na pwedeng ma-apply sa feasib nyo go!
videos, fashion show (kung applicable, hehe)..lahat ng media na
pwedeng magamit gamitin nyo.

sa videos, interviewhin nyo yung mga sponsors ninyo, parang testi

type...(diba guys?)

kung makakagawa kayo ng commercial or ad about your project mas

maganda...gamitin nyo "here comes the sun" by the beatles sa
background...hehe!

sa powerpoint, minimal text and highlight nyo lang yung mga

important figures...the bulk of the report should be presented verbally,
wag gamiting script ang powerpoint....

as much as possible, KAILANGAN HINDI MAGBABASA SA CUE CARD...

eto yung isang tip nya. sa bungad palang sabihin nyo sa investors ano
ang kikitain nila kung mag-iinvest sila (for example) ng P100 in year 1,
2 etc....

akitin nyo ang investors.

sa CAPM kailangan alam nyo yung buong detalye ng mga figures na

ginamit nyo...interest rate chorvaness...dun kami na-dali eh...hehe.

kailangan VISIBLE lahat ng graphs and tables.... ayaw ni ma'am ng

hindi maaninag na mga visuals. lalo nya kasi inuusisa pag malabo or
maliit yung figures...wehe.
sa financials, excel computations should be on cue... para sa q&a alam
nyo agad kung san huhugutin yung explanations.

sa market study, yung survey details esp yung computation ng

demand ang kadalasang tinatanong. pano nyo na-determine ang
demand... pano nyo na-assure na representative talaga ng market nyo
yung sinurvey ninyo...

hmm... isip pa ako ng iba...pero as ofnow, eto talaga yung nag-stand

out sa memory ko...

basta, wag lang kayo pasindak.

kausapin nyo classmates nyo na makisama sa inyo... hehe! peaceful

co-existence!

from Kitkat:
ako rin! nasa mood din akong mag-type ngayon! Sabaday ngayon
dito..kaya yehey, may time akong magbabad sa computer!

basta this is a one time-big time shot. uyung presentation niyo will
make or break your group. I swear. Si mam kasi makakalimutin kaya
ang tendency is ang binibigyan nya ng matataas na grade is yung
naalala lang talaga niya. Kaya mga parekoy, magpakaplastik na kayo
kung kinakailangan! dress up for the report. As in gusto ni mam, naka
skirt ang mga girls! take note, WITH STOCKINGS YAN! naalala ko pa na
nagkandarapa pa kami ni mhigs bumili ng stockings sa Sm North.
hehehe. (Oh yes, si mhigs naka-skirt at stockings) Isa itong malaking
role playing! nag-salamin pa talaga ako para lang mag-muka akong
credible! hahaha! salamin pa nga yta ni JA yun eh! Best advise,
planuhin ng mabuti ang 20-mins presentation nyo (kasi kailangan
talaga sobrang concise) at gumawa ng script. Kami noon, may
binabasa kami (i swear, hindi ko kayang i-memorize lahat ng kailangan
kong sabihin) pero make sure na wag kayong mag-depend sa cue
cards nyo. Ang bestfriend nyo habang nagsasalita kayo is yung slides
nyo! gusto nya na you get the info that you explain sa slides nyo. Kung
table yung nasa slide nyo, iexplain ng mabuti ang slide. at mga
girlfriends, IEXTEND ANG ARMS! gusto nyo ituro (as in ituro! mala-
teacher style!) ang ipinapaliwanag sa slide. para daw hindi lost ang
audience. Tama si rai, dapat alamin kung sino ang kausap. Maganda
nga kung investors, para malalayo kayo sa financial aspects. Kailangan
nyo na lang i-sell yung idea na ang inyong business ay worth investing
for. tas in the end, magkaron kayo ng integration ng inyong
report.(parang hindi naman namin nagawa yun ah! pero kasi nakita ko
sa kabilang groups na maganda kung may summary at the end para
ma-collate yung important ideas) basta todo hikayat na ang inyong
business ay super ultra mega profitable para kaming investors nyo ay
ganahang mag-invest. dapat true-to-life ang inyong figures at ang
inyong contacts (aka creditors and banks and interest rates and sweldo
and fees and basta lahat!). magpaka-PANA na kung kinakailangan. =)

gawa kayo ng props! gusto nya yon! naalala ko tuloy yung amin,
tuwang tuwa siya kay edmund na model namin kasi talagang minodel
niya in front of mam agustin yung damit! hehehe. dba dorm yung inyo?
make them feel na talagang nasa dormitory business kayo!

Tapos piliin ng mahusay ang part ng feasib na kailangan ihighlight.

parang kina rai, since playplace sila, kailangan talagang ihighlight ang
technicals non, kasi service-inclined sila. feeling ko ganon din sa inyo.
basta ang importante, veer away from financials! financials is the last
thing you wanna argue with mam. tas kung may data kayo na lifted
from a source, kailangan ispecify ng mabuti kung saan ito kinuha at
kung accurate ba ito. Hindi pwedeng sabihin na galing po sa internet.
Naku ewan ko na alng kung hindi magpintig ang tenga ni mam don.
Gusto nya reliable ang sources dahil, ehem "this is real life" ayon sa
kanya. may naalala kasi akong group na tinanong kung saan
nanggaling yung T-bill rates na ginamit nila. Patay. dun na nagfocus si
mam sa kanyang torture session.

Gusto ni mam, every presentation should be better than the previous.

Rationale: dapat kasi may matutunan kayo sa previous group, kaya
tama si raissa, mag-notes kayo!

Summary, ingatan ang bawat salitang ilalabas sa inyong bibig.

Magpaganda sa araw na iyon, at girlfriends, i-enjoy ang inyong red
letter day! hehehe. Just look forward to the happy days after doom's
day. makakahinga na kayo ng maluwag. well may written output pa
pala, pero at least mas maluwag na kayo. =) wag kayong papasindak
sa purple-eyed monster na yan. Sus si mam agustin lang yan eh. hindi
naman siya ang nagpapasweldo sa inyo eh! pero kung hindi successful,
eh hello, may next sem pa naman! bawi na lang next sem! hahaha
joke lang!!!! you will be just fine. magpray pati kayo ng mabuti!! =)

From Maggie:
wow rai! i was able to relive our feasib presentation after reading what
you wrote!!! namiss kita sobra!!!!!!!! pero i would not do it all over
again! naku! di kami natulog nila rai at yvette the night before the
presentation!! parang we were re-writing the entire feasib paper to suit
the presentation's needs according to ma'am! we really had to make it
believable!

i was in charge of the market study during the presentation day. i made
the crucial mistake of stating the assumptions first before the actual
data! kasi nung una, sa mga ibang groups, yun ang sinabi niya eh!
pero tama rin sya, it makes more sense if you deliver the FIGURES first,
yung mga data na nakalap niyo muna, and then you explain kung
paano niyo nakuha yun---the assumptions. pero last presentation day
na diba, too late the hero naman si ma'am, haha! syempre kailangan
the demand and supply numbers are favorable! kaya yung pinresent
kong data matagal na prosisyon bago naging ganun yun! ang dami
munang nangyari bago naging "believable" lahat: actual data, process
of gathering the information, at assumptions! so to have ma'am get
annoyed at me for presenting the assumptions first, ay parang nadurog
ang puso ko nun... pero all in all, okay lang kasi di na sya nagtaray
nung araw na iyon. lahat ng mangyayari sa presentation niyo ay
depende sa mood ni ma'am.

gusto niya yung sinusunod niyo kung anong sinabi niyang sampling
method na dapat gamitin. nung sa amin stratified sampling at
systematic. tapos pag magppresent ng figures, yun nga, gusto niya
malinaw at kitang kita! ayaw niya ng may decimal points! kasi daw
lahat naman ng ginawa natin ay approximations lang daw. so useless
magpaka feeling exact using decimal points.

nagustuhan niya sa technical report ni yvette yung system walk-

through. yung step by step process ng actual business transaction ng
negosyo namin. (Art Castle: parang: parent comes in to drop off child--
gets a card--picks up child--returns card--- and pays. tipong ganyan
pero kinareer yan ni yvette! simple lang ang pag eexplain pero kuha na
lahat ng mahalagang steps,kaya naintindihan agad ni ma'am! favorite
nya yung part na to, naks! hehe!:) )

may day na magddiscuss yan si ma'am kung anong hinahanap niya sa

presentation, so mag notes kayo! bawat salitang lalabas sa bibig niya
isulat niyo! at magtanong---ng intelligent questions!---kung kailangan.
dagdag pogi points yan kay ma'am hehe!

good luck! kayang kaya yan! galingan niyo at ibigay na ang lahat
lahat!!! pag natapos na, ang sarap ng feeling! parang nakalusot ka sa
butas ng karayom!
