GoGo Xpress, one of e-commerce tech and logistics service provider QuadX brands and a go-to hassle-free online selling partner, invested in data and technology needed to realize the company’s vision of uplifting the quality of life of Filipinos through entrepreneurship, particularly in the grassroots and marginalized communities. Its goal is to remove the friction and barriers to business success, and support Filipino sellers especially those who are into online or social selling.
GoGo Xpress wants its partners, which include casual social sellers, buyers and rider partners, to make it easier for them and for every Filipino to go into business or continuously grow their existing businesses.
GoGo Xpress can also help online sellers promote via social media to create a storefront where they can have their customers view and check out the item, immediately book Pinas-wide delivery, and settle the payment.
“We want to help give Filipino entrepreneurs a fighting chance in fulfilling their dreams so they can provide for themselves and their families while improving their quality of life,” said Dino Araneta, QuadX founder and chief executive officer.
During the pandemic, GoGo Xpress made it convenient for sellers to deliver their goods to their buyers through booking and GoGo Xpress would pick up the parcels on the same day if they made a booking before the 2pm cut-off and the following day if they booked after the cut-off. Upon booking, GoGo Xpress would inform the buyer about it and make updates after parcel pick-up and on the delivery date.
For this year, GoGo Xpress announced it improved its Seller Tool features to further help grow online businesses. One of these tools is GoBenta, an enhancement to GoGo Xpress’s Sell-A-Product feature, which allows sellers to create up to 100 product links that would include descriptions, stock availability and price within the GoBenta storefront. Aside from this, sellers can link their GoBenta store to their Facebook Page’s chat with Messenger Shop or just share the link on their social media so online buyers can easily, and check out items they wish to purchase. Meanwhile, buyers can input their delivery details aside from choosing COD as a mode of payment. That makes it more efficient on the seller’s side as they don’t need to fill in the delivery details for their buyers. This means more efficiency and accuracy and fewer mistakes in delivery. Buyers can know immediately how much the shipping fee is and have the option to choose COD without having to pay a COD service fee. Sellers using GoGo Xpress can also create their own special discounts for the items they are promoting with the Promo Code Generator. This way they get to create their own exclusive offers for their customers during their sale period.
“As of today, we have successfully connected almost 1.5-million casual social sellers to over 20-million buyers. As an e-commerce tech and logistics company, we offer seller tools that provide a hassle-free way of doing business. Right now, we are leveling up with more features and seller tools that would benefit our merchants and their customers,” said Mia Bulatao, president and chief operating officer at GoGo Xpress.
For 2022, Bulatao said GoGo Xpress projects to grow its customer base and make the online buying and selling experience enjoyable to over 3-million sellers and 40-million buyers.
“Our objective is to provide merchants with Selling Tools that would make online selling and shopping more fun, more affordable and more efficient without being intimidating,” said Bulatao.
“With GoBenta storefront, sellers can customize their store names and upload their own brand logos. They can also use the product links to promote their store and products on their social media platforms, including Facebook, FB Messenger Shop, FB Marketplace, KUMU, Carousell, Viber, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Email and SMS,” said Bulatao.
McCoy Jacinto, GoGo Xpress managing director, said 2,500 shops have so far been created on GoBenta and the number is growing by 15% week-on-week.
