FHm’s guide to
building yourself
as a #brand
on social media
WO R DS Ash MAhinAy
I L LU S T R AT I O N S M E LVi n C ALi n G O
01
start a blog
1.1 All influencers must have an actual blog. It is the
font of your power
“I started my blog in July 2009. I was still in college [at
the College of San Benilde] and it was a requirement for
my general psychology class—then at the end of the term
nagkakaroon na’ng followers. It was just a photo blog but
through the years nag-shift siya into fashion and lifestyle.”
1.2 Inventing a handle vs. naming it after yourself
“It’s harder if you have a certain brand [or handle such as The
Sartorialist], kasi parang nalilimit yung future posts mo rather
than just having your name. Kasi when I say David Guison,
naka-combine na yung work [and everything personal].”
1.3 Don’t be greedy and blog about anything and
everything at once
“If you’re starting, just really find your niche. Bloggers nowadays
really go for lifestyle blogs: so that’s fashion, travel, fitness,
medyo broad. If you can, focus on one thing you’re good at—kasi
people will listen–then branch out from there. I was just into
photography but people would ask me to post selfies, my outfits,
and dun na ako nag-shift into fashion. It was a turning point kasi
wala pa masyadong male bloggers in 2010.”
03
If you can scroll down your posts without it looking
like 10 different people posting on their own
accord, you have succeeded in taming the beast.
“Since I’m a lifestyle blogger, my Instagram needs
to have variety. This morning I’ll post an outfit, then
the next post is food or travel naman…[for looks] I
want it dark and walang saturation. I follow certain

very strict on that.”
get on Facebook,
Instagram, & twItter
People aren’t going to check your blog every hour–
but they’re always on social media.
“I made the shift to Facebook nung pinag-
trip-an ako ng friends ko at ginawan nila ako ng
fan page. Nahihiya ako pero nagkaroon siya ng
mga likes. I was just posting everything there and
nakita ko mas may engagement kasi mas real-time
siya compared with the blog. Then when I started
Instagram, I knew I wanted to have something to
promote my blog–siyempre, I want my readers to
go there pa rin. But since you post it on Instagram
parang nape-preempt siya–nakikita na nila kung
ano laman ng blog. Pinag-aralan namin ng agency
ko na mas malakas ang IG kesa sa blog. Now I post
at least six times a day.”

ang mas important.

& MonetIze
If you’ve racked up the legit following, and brands
are knocking at the door, it’s time to be a real
influencer (and make some bank finally).
6.1 Actually quit your job to live the blogger
life? It’s a full-time commitment too
“I treat it like regular work. I wake up at 6 a.m.,
answer emails until 7 a.m., set up appointments, go
to the gym, then off to events. Then at night I write
and schedule my posts to be up by 2 a.m.”
6.2 learn to ask the big question…
“I don’t always charge, and it’s really up to you if you
want to charge [at all], or depende sa deliverables:
Do they want just a brand mention or a whole blog
post? Usually brands won’t [even offer payment up
front], ikaw ang mag-o-offer. Feeling ko tine-test
nila if this blogger is willing to give it for free–pero
i-feel mo rin kung ano ang worth mo online [when
you charge].”
6.3 …but don’t act entitled
“Sa States, it’s the other way around, but in the
Philippines I think it’s a turn-off if you’re the one
who approaches the brand. Dito medyo turn off if
you invite yourself to events. Usually they go to you
and not you to them. You just really have to market
yourself. Like tagging them, that’s usually where
they notice you. And if they email me, I have a
sample presentation of my posts ready.”

If you ask senior
sportsman Mr. Buddy
Encarnado, we do, and
that’s the reason he put up
a new commercial league
to back up the big dog,
the Philippine Basketball
Association, which is now
entering its 41st season.
Encarnado, a two-time Executive of the Year
awardee in the PBA and a former league
chairman of the pro league, used to be team
executive of erstwhile PBA team Sta. Lucia
Realtors until it exited the pro league in 2010.
But now he’s back, and Sta. Lucia’s back, in
the maiden season of the Pilipinas Commercial
Basketball League (PCBL).
As chair of the PCBL, Encarnado’s vision for
the new league is simple: to provide sanctuary
and livelihood to amateur players and ex-pros
who are either looking to polish their skills
preparatory to the big jump to the pros or
provide opportunity to those who were not given
enough exposure to prove themselves while
playing in the PBA.
There is, of course, the PBA D-League, “We realized that there is a big void between on vacation from the PBA D-League, Isit and

Real talk: Compare
Koreans to Pinoy
men fashion-wise.
Honestly, Korean
guys are way more
fashionable than Pinoy
guys. Koreans like trying
new things and are
more adventurous with
colors [bright or neon
ones]. Pinoys kasi prefer
comfortable clothes
over stylish ones and
they like basic colors
lang–for them it’s more
manly pag black, gray or
brown etc.
Do dancers really
have a clothing
style?
Yes! For me I always like
showing my abs, ha ha! I
have a long torso I look
better in crop tops. It
also works better for me
if I wear sexy clothes–it
adds to my charisma in
dancing!
Any sexy accidents
while performing
though?
I had a gig back in
Korea [with Brown Eyed
Girls] and I wore one
open shoulder top and
that time I didn’t use
safety pins since it was
already tight. But when I
started dancing–hataw–
intro pa lang it's falling
na, exposing my bra! So
what I did was inhale
lang para my chest will
hold the clothes. It was
really hard for me since
hinihingal ako. ha ha!
Now I always secure my
costumes with safety
pins and double-sided
tape!
