Four ways AI is helping mompreneurs achieve work-life balance
Madiskarte Moms at Google Philippines Headquarters for Gemini Academy
Imagine a life where you can cultivate a flourishing business while cherishing those invaluable moments with your family. The old idea that true success demands the sacrifice of family time is undergoing a remarkable transformation, led by the incredible capabilities of modern technology. Today, groundbreaking tools and resources are empowering ambitious mompreneurs to effortlessly blend their professional aspirations with the joys of family life. Success no longer requires choosing between career achievements and precious family connections; instead, it invites a harmonious balance where both can thrive together.
Jenielyn Sicabalo-Nieva, the driving force behind the blossoming MP Nieva’s Flower Company, shares how she cultivates more precious moments with her family even as her stunning floral arrangements flourish. “We’re now better at making content for social media to promote the business,” she says. “We respond to customers’ inquiries quicker and more efficiently, plus we can offer fresh and innovative floral designs faster to customers.”
You might think that Jenielyn has hired a whole new team to do content creation, marketing, and day-to-day operations—but no, the reality is quite different. Jenielyn and other members of Madiskarte Moms PH gained these enhanced capabilities through Gemini Academy, an AI training program held on March 5. This initiative, “Ayan na! AI na!,” was supported by PLDT Home in collaboration with Google Philippines and was launched during Women’s Month in March. Beyond providing an efficient infrastructure that allows mompreneurs to scale up their businesses and reach wider markets, PLDT Home empowers them through digital literacy programs and workshops with successful entrepreneurs who started small.
Aside from Mommy Jenielyn’s story, the practical AI knowledge gained from Gemini Academy is now manifesting in the lives of other Madiskarte Moms in these significant ways:
Writing captions that convert to sales
“AI helps me to write convincing captions on social media, which is important to convert views to sales since we don’t have a physical store yet,” says Lea Daras, who founded and runs Jathniel’s Specialty and The FloraCraft Project, a food business and a customized, dried flower business, respectively.
Xavier&Xandrei’s Melissa Moscoso agrees. “Using AI to write content about my sustainable and eco-friendly products has been a game-changer. With Gemini’s assistance, I can quickly generate engaging and relevant captions that resonate with my audience. It also enabled me to bring my ideas to life by creating images that perfectly capture my vision.”
Melissa adds that thanks to the workshop, she learned how to refine her prompt-making skills to generate “precisely the kind of content I need, saving me time and effort in the long run.”
Abby Cruz’s Momi Bigbig Kitchen food business has gotten more sales via their online sellers with the help of Gemini, which creates promotional materials to use in selling. “Gemini really helped our business grow bigger online, and I’m looking forward to what more it can do for the business.”
Analyzing business data
AI extends far beyond content creation; it serves as a powerful analytical tool for businesses, capable of sifting through complex data to unveil innovative strategies that can enhance market reach, diversify product offerings, and optimize operational efficiency. By leveraging historical sales data and customer behavioral patterns, AI enables entrepreneurs to anticipate future trends, effectively managing inventory levels and streamlining workflows for maximum productivity. Furthermore, AI excels in identifying robust marketing strategies that resonate with target audiences—pinpointing the ideal timing, platforms, and methods to transform views into tangible sales. In essence, AI meticulously analyzes your data, delivering actionable insights that empower informed decision-making and drive business growth.
Scheduling, saving time
Let’s be honest, it may seem simple, but it’s truly transformative: remembering. the essential tasks that must be accomplished! How often have you found yourself on the brink ofng significant — perhaps a child’s important event or an impending deadline — as it slipped away from your mental to-do list? Juggling numerous responsibilities can be overwhelming for mompreneurs, and this is where AI can step in as a dependable ally, seamlessly helping to track and organize every crucial detail.
Imagine seamlessly integrating Gemini with your Google account, allowing it to effortlessly schedule your important business meetings alongside your children’s cherished recitals. It can gently remind you about that essential trip to the supermarket or prompt you about the engaging content you had promised to share. Envision it as an enhanced memory tool, amplifying your organizational capabilities and ensuring nothing important slips through the cracks!
BC Fragrance founder Bernadette Lim says, “Gemini has become my virtual partner, research assistant, marketing team, and creative writer. It helps me maximize my schedule: what takes me a long time to do, it does quickly, like writing descriptions for my scents or breaking down complex regulatory information. It has helped me move faster and smarter, maximizing my limited time at work since I’m also hands-on with my daughter, and it keeps me informed on what I need to do for the business and for my family .”
Planning meal plans and grocery lists
