The Butterfly 🦋 Project’s initiative to promoting the 1st step to Happiness by joining forces with brands & partners to promote Mental Health Awareness Month this May 2024 to inspiring all with 1st step towards better wellbeing 🫂💖💯

Not many people will aware, understand or even recognize the importance of caring 🤗 🫂 for own mental health; in fact some may not even realize they are experiencing mental health issues. Mental health issues can affect anyone, irrespective of age, race, or economic & social status or whether each live in rural or urban area. Due to cultural norms & stigma, mental health issues are often being ignored & not openly discussed, hence leading many to avoid seeking help that eventually cause it worse 😔

Ironically, seeking assistance & knowing that you are not alone is typically the initial important step in addressing own mental health & enhancing overall own well-being 💖💯 This is precisely why the PASAR BESTIES Bazaar, organized by The Butterfly 🦋 Project, a community platform, aims to foster conversations 🗣️👥👤, offer a safe platform for addressing mental health & raise awareness by collaborating 🤝🏻🙌🏻 with brands & partners

This bazaar is scheduled for 2️⃣ days ie. 18 & 19 May 2024, 11 am to 6 pm,📍The School by Jaya One 🏬

It will showcase 13 participating brands, offer 6️⃣ specially curated workshops that are complimentary 🆓 to participate & feature over 30 vendors selling pre-loved & handmade items 🛍️ 🛒 

The National Health & Morbidity Survey in 2019 reported that half a million Malaysians were found to be experiencing symptoms of depression; with the highest prevalence found in: Wilayah Persekutuan Putrajaya, Negeri Sembilan, Perlis, Sabah & Melaka of Malaysia 🇲🇾 The National Health & Morbidity Survey (NHMS) survey in 2022 revealed that 1️⃣ in 4️⃣ adolescents suffered from depression, compared to 1️⃣ in 5️⃣ in 2019

Not only that, the World Health Organization (WHO) classified burnout 🤯😳 as a clinical syndrome brought on by chronic workplace stress in May 2019, signalling that this may be fully recognized as an occupational & work-related disease

Taking care of your mental health offers numerous benefits. It helps in building emotional resilience, fostering healthy relationships, enhancing focus & concentration, & achieving goals 🎯

Ms Tammy Lim 🙋🏻‍♀️ (SiennyLovesDrawing & community members mostly addressed her as mamasan ☺️), the founder of The Butterfly 🦋 Project, Malaysia’s 🇲🇾 leading beauty & lifestyle KOL community, believes that her platform & members can play a pivotal role in raising awareness for mental health 💓

Hmm…SiennyLovesDrawing as 1️⃣ of the many active members of The Butterfly 🦋 Project, however this round she will be working abroad & can’t personally attend this bazaar, so sad 😌

“It’s okay 👌🏻 not to be okay. The 1️⃣st step is to step out of your comfort zone & embrace happiness. When you’re feeling down, who do you turn to❓⁉️ Your best friend. Don’t have one❓⁉️ Make one‼️ This is the theme of this bazaar; you do not have to be alone. This bazaar is not only about fun; it’s also an opportunity to destress & practice self-care with a variety of self-care brands on board for this 2️⃣-day event. It’s a place for people to connect 🤝🏻, make 🆕 friends, or spend time with their besties.”

Ms Tammy 🙋🏻‍♀️ further emphasized, “It’s a win-win situation for both the local community & businesses. Our event also promotes thrifting & reduces ⬇️ waste. The vendors offering pre-loved items are members of our community, empowering them to become entrepreneurs. Additionally, this event spreads happiness 😁 through fun, cheerful & vibrant local brands. I also believe in our community of KOLs to raise awareness & advocate for mental health 💓 by lending our voices & reaching out to our followers.

Malaysian Celebrities ~ Lan Solo & Zoey Rahman Drive Authentic Connections On Shopee Live

Hey 👋🏻 all, this time SiennyLovesDrawing 👩🏻 is excited & proud to share that responding to the shifting e-commerce trend towards a more humanised online shopping experience* 🛒🛍️🌐📈, local celebrities Zoey Rahman 👨🏽‍💼 & Lan Solo 🙋🏽‍♂️ are actively stepping into the digital spotlight, curating & presenting products on Shopee🧡’s own livestream channel, Shopee Mamak

Whether it’s Zoey Rahman👨🏽‍💼’s insightful product reviews or Lan Solo🙋🏽‍♂️’s captivating demonstrations, these celebrities are going beyond traditional endorsements. This shift towards interactive & personalised content is a win-win for all users to creating a humanised online shopping experience  💯👍🏻🛒🛍️🌐

Celebrities Advocates Authenticity to Build Brand Trust in E-commerce 

Lan Solo 🙋🏽‍♂️ & Zoey Rahman👨🏽‍💼 Share Their Livestream Experiences

A human-centric online shopping 🛒🛍️🌐 experience prioritises genuine product sharing & builds connections through shared experience. Lan Solo 🙋🏽‍♂️, a member of the Shopee Celebrity Squad & a popular Malaysian singer known for his engaging Shopee Mamak content, emphasised this shift: “It isn’t just about showcasing or selling products. Live streaming is all about 2️⃣-way conversations. We encourage questions, respond to comments in real-time, and create a sense of community.” Lan Solo’s Shopee Mamak streams consistently pull in an average viewership of over 50K Malaysians

Fellow Shopee Celebrity Squad member & founder of Mikaseries, Zoey Rahman 👨🏽‍💼, echoed this sentiment.  “People connect with authenticity. On Shopee Live, I can share genuine product recommendations, offering viewers valuable insights beyond just a celebrity endorsement.”  One of Zoey’s recent Shopee Mamak sessions drew a record number of over 60K viewers, showcasing the power of expert advice delivered in a relatable and engaging format, wow 😲👏🏻👍🏻

Celebrities Champions Personalised E-commerce Content That Connects 

Many businesses see the potential of live streaming by connecting directly with customers through Shopee Live. But for some, the world of live commerce can feel like uncharted territory.  🆕 sellers are eager to jump on the bandwagon, but questions ❓⁉️ like “Where do I even begin?” or “What kind of content should I create?” cloud their minds

All about Shopee app, online shopping, ewallet, ecommerce, ShopeeFood, ShopeePay, app, ShopeeAmbassador

Zoey 👨🏽‍💼 gave his expert take on maximising e-commerce efforts through Shopee Live. “Live streaming might seem casual, but a well-defined content strategy is key.” He stressed audience research, “It’s important to know what your audience is interested in before you start your live stream. What kind of content that’s both interesting and informative to them?” Besides, Zoey emphasised the importance of authenticity, advocating for live sellers to provide genuine recommendations. His commitment to authenticity went beyond mere recommendations. He personally tested products before showcasing them on Shopee Live, for example health supplements like Redoxon Cal-D Effervescent Tablets & KITSUI Whitie Snow Probiotic. This 1️⃣sthand experience allowed him to identify key benefits & present them from a user’s perspective, not just a salesperson’s. By prioritising transparency, Zoey built trust with his viewers, avoiding hard sells in favour of genuine recommendations

Lan 🙋🏽‍♂️ shared a similar view when asked about his content strategy to succeed in Shopee Live. “Storytelling is a great 👍🏻 way to engage viewers and reduce drop offs. Think of it as hanging out with friends & talking about something you’re passionate about your products‼️” Instead of bombarding viewers with sales tactics like pushing them to purchase, Lan suggested weaving stories around the products. “Imagine sharing funny anecdotes about a particular item or offering your own experiences that resonate with your audience. This approach keeps them engaged & interested in learning more.” Lan Solo, a parent himself, put this advice into action, leveraging his experience to recommend the Anakku Disney Baby Bath. His relatable stories resonated with parent viewers who trusted his 1️⃣sthand knowledge & advice. Both Zoey Rahman 👨🏽‍💼 & Lan Solo 🙋🏽‍♂️’s sharing align perfectly with the growing trend 📈 of live commerce

They can live stream directly from their phones anytime, anywhere‼️” Shopee Live allows sellers to launch live streams easily just through a phone  🤳🏽📱 a convenient & cost-effective way to connect with audiences

“Shopee Live is like having your own mini broadcast, but without the production hassle,” said Lan Solo 🙋🏽‍♂️, echoing the platform’s user-friendliness. “Unlike traditional live streaming, Shopee Live empowers sellers to go live with ease. Shopee Live’s easy-to-use features, such as live chat functionality & exclusive deals, empower brands & sellers to connect with audiences in an interactive way, ultimately leading to increased ⬆️ brand awareness & brand loyalty.”
