After the success of their viral hit “Rose Blossom,” H1-KEY’s album sales are skyrocketing! Earlier this year, H1-KEY’s song “Rose Blossom” went viral after attracting attention for its poetic Korean title and its inspiring lyrics (which were written by DAY6’s Young K). The song went on to gradually climb up the Korean music charts, even reaching No. 1 on Bugs. Last week, H1-KEY made their first…

Humans tend to create narratives to make sense of their world. They tend to use narratives as supporting mechanism to deal with the uncertainties of life, for they believe that if they are capable to understand the meaning of the past, they can somehow predict the future, or at last grow in confidence. Therefore, to influence a customer, you (entrepreneurs) have to understand their narrative, their level of confidence, needs, and their longing. By learning potential customers narrative, marketers may be able to change some of the weak links of the business and know how to coalign the brands’ service in line with the customers and in such a way that both narratives (customer and marketers) become entangled.

I began by questioning our possible customers on their experiences in taking modular and online classes. Majority of them answered it is hard considering that they are somewhat relying on their selves, self-studying, the lack of sleep and time to answer all the modules due to the great number of activities, distractions, and lack of focus. It is confusing to some, as first off modules and online materials are not substitute for teachers. Without a knowledgeable person around who can explain confusing and complicated concepts, the students won’t be able to understand it. It is also quite hard for the students because it is very different from the previous classroom set up where students and teacher can interact and have a discussion according to the students’ pace.

Some answered it is not really an effective type of educational system because first, the examples are limited. Modules aren’t perfect; some lacks explanations and have unclear examples. Second, some students are being left behind. Those who don’t have access in strong network connection might have a hard time in understanding the online materials passed and sent by their teachers, as he/she didn’t get to attend and hear the discussion. And lastly, there is a lack of feedback. Once the modules have been answered and delivered to the school, students only have to worry about the next modules coming. In online discussions, after the activity was submitted/turned in, you only have to wait for the score and then proceed to the next lesson without any further explanations. There is little to no feedback regarding what they have learned, if their answers are correct, and how they can and should come up with the correct answers.

One of the persons I have interviewed directly told me that online and modular learning is not ideal. It is a struggle for the students, teachers, and even the parents. The quality of education at these times have dropped. It maybe hard to admit but learning is really hard when it is done on your own. It’s hard to absorb new information when no one there is to guide you or at last empathize with you when things get hard, and the lessons get too much.

We were then pitching and explaining to them about our proposed business venture, and so far, these people saw a potential in it. They say, it is helpful for them students and parents if someone could help them with their lessons aside from their teachers or parents or their modules. It would be better because with it they might have a chance, a high chance, of understanding their lessons and possibly answering their modules and online activities without the need of google assistance, which they can’t understand sometimes because some have no clear explanations and other materials can’t be accessed. However, they are worried about the online set up. They are concern about the internet connectivity, as some have weak internet connection. They questioned about the rates per session and how effective the online facilitators, assistants, or tutors are. They are worried if the service is worth the rate and such.

“If we launch a new online assistance business in a municipality where internet connectivity is not an issue and have lower rate compared to others, then it will translate to increase in profits and possible customer”. This has been the considered hypothesis being tested while asking the possible consumer on their narratives about the proposed business venture. And so far, this is a possibility in the municipality of Nabunturan. Hypothesis testing allows us to test our theories and assumptions before putting them into action. It allows us to verify our analysis and make adjustments.

The team then decided to pursue this venture proposal and take a risk in betting on it because we all saw a potential in it. And the fact that this is really needed now that we are in a pandemic, and the only plausible education system is the modular and e-learning. We were actually torn in continuing this plan or changing the proposed business. The team was in a dilemma. We were thinking of changing our proposal because we don’t think we can pull this off. We have many competitors online, ones with established names and concrete resources. However, our teacher advised us to know explore our proposed venture more. She suggested to know more about our customer and our customers’ experience, and from there we should build our venture proposal. And so we did.

I learned from this the importance of customers’ narrative and knowing more your customer. That to build a solid venture proposal you have to give importance of your target customers. And always test your hypothesis before taking action because just assuming things based on flawed insights can lead to wasted resources, missed opportunities, and catastrophic outcomes.

To be honest, my major wasn’t my choice. I really wanted to be a Seafarer like my brother, because I am inspired by my uncles and cousins. During my 12th grade, my course was Maritime and I’m planning to continue it until college but taking a course of Maritime Transportation is not easy at the same time, it is very expensive. 

So, I given up my dreams to become a Seafarer and what I did is I went to University of Science and Technology of Southern Philippines also known as USTP which is my school now. I scheduled myself for the entrance examination, all I need to do is to fill up the form that they’d given to us. There are lots of courses that we can choose from the form but when I saw the course Food Technology or BSFT I was shocked and chose it and that was my first choice, we need also choose for our 2nd choice of course because encase you can’t be able to pass your first choice of course you want, then you have to take the 2nd choice. I am not really smart when it comes to Math, I asked one of their staff if there’s an available course that there are not much related to math? and she said that only Technology Communication Management (TCM) is not really related to mathematics and that course was my 2nd choice.

The day of entrance examination, I was really busy at that time and I forgot my schedule. I went to my school to take the exam but unfortunately, the woman who assigned to guide students to take their exams won’t let me go inside the library which is the place for the said examination. She wants me to go again in the admission office to get a letter for rescheduling my entrance exam, then I went there and thanks to God they let me to reschedule my exam. I was thankful of that time because they’d given me a chance.

I never wasted my second chance and during the of my entrance examination, I am on time. The exam was not easy, the woman who guides students only given us 15 minutes to answer each task or questions. I had a hard time answering the math subject because I was weak when it comes to that subject, but the English subject was a little bit easy for me such us grammars and making sentences.
