I was happy to watch that Jessica Soho featured a fish ball cart owner here in our province. She knows that there are a lot of fish ball vendors but she finds it unique to feature this particular owner.
That’s because the name of his cart is Facebool, which sounds like Facebook ! And the logo of his cart also looks like that of Facebook.
From one cart, he now have 3 carts. Well, he said it also pays that you have a unique name for your business and that you know how to deal with various kinds of clients. Not to mention that his fishball is indeed delicious , as it was said by the students who always patronizes him.
Oh i feel like eating fish ball now!

The fish ball cart owner was lucky enough to get Jessica Soho featured,his sales should shoot through the roof.He do have a head for business.He achieve his purpose through the agency of Facebook which has been well known.In market economy,he needs not only delicious fishball but also brand consciousness.

I think Jessica was able to feature the man because of that logo of his for his fishball cart. Her researcher has indeed done a good scouting of what Jessica should have as a feature to his show.
This particularly elicited a smile and a laugh on us , when we watched it.

Actually yes my friend. Jessica's topic usually tackles the uniqueness. She was intrigued by the name Facebool which sounded like Facebook and its Logo.

Yes , i totally agree. And for sure after being featured by Jessica Soho, his sales will surely escalate and his 3 carts may be doubled into 6!

Oh D, you are making me so hungry. I love fishball! I'm not sure if i could buy one near my house now though. We don't allow vendors to get inside the village so i must go out, which is a bit far and i'm lazy.
People who are diligent will surely get somewhere and that man surely knows how to do business.

Correct ! That man really knows how to keep up with the times. And he sure knows that using that title similar to face book would be an added attraction too, to what he is selling.
Yes, i love fishball too, specially with the sweet & spicy dip.

But i think, a lot patronizes his Facebool because his fishballs are actually really delicious. People are into the taste of foods, right?

Oh yes, i miss eating fish ball too. The cart shown is at the airport which is very out of way whenever i go home.
We have a fishball cart at the mall where our office is, but they don't taste as good as those in the street.
Hmm, maybe tonight when i go home i might as well pass by the rotonda, where there are a lot of students and people gathered eating many kind of street foods.

hello! Yes i watched that episode, that a fishbol vendor makes an idea of instead fishbol it became the logo of facebook but the name is facebool. That's cool, and now he is already known because of that style.

I guess creativity plays a great role in entrepreneurship. I love street foods, and I do eat sidewalk fish balls sometimes. I didn't catch this episode about the so-called Fishbool vendor, but I think it's common Filipino style. Always imitating something famous, adding to it his own style. They say we don't have originality, but I say that's creativity and that's really being practical. Since it's famous, you definitely are sure to get more .

Good day Simplyd,
I have also witnessed that on the other station. That it was one of the featured story being aired. And I was grateful to the guy who able to think that idea. That, he was able to connect the social networking site to his business. As a result, many people have patronized it and recognized his product as well. And now, he is reaping what he saw. Thus, there is a saying, you will reap what you have saw.

Yes, the man has really a very creative idea. Who would link facebook to facebool, it's him and him alone.

I think it is not only the name sounding facebook that made his business successful. It pays to be hardworking and having quality in what we sell. Because all consumers doesnt want to buy things that they think is not worth the price. I am happy for him for his success in the business and for being creative.

Yes, it's not only that Facebool name but it's actually for his delicious fishballs and good PR to all his clients.
