Raket.PH on its 2nd Anniversary

It's time to raise a toast and celebrate a milestone as Raket.PH turns 2! Can you believe it? This incredible platform has been shaking up the digital world and connecting talented individuals with amazing opportunities since 2021.

So, let's take a trip down memory lane and see how it all started. A bunch of passionate folks got together and thought, "Why don’t we create a platform that empowers creators to earn from home!"

What began as a simple idea soon transformed into a dream, and with determination, it became a reality. And just like that, Raket.PH was born, bringing independent professionals and clients together in perfect harmony.

“When we started Raket, our main motivation was to provide Filipinos with an easy platform to find work and showcase their talents, while also ensuring that clients have access to a large pool of talented Filipino independents to get their projects done on time and within budget. As entrepreneurs ourselves, we saw how difficult it was to find the right talents for various jobs. At the same time, highly skilled Filipinos struggled to find legitimate work opportunities. We wanted to bridge this gap using technology. By building an online marketplace focused on transparency, payment protection, and an easy-to-use interface for both clients and Raketeers, we believed we could help unlock the potential of the Philippine freelancing industry. It has been incredibly fulfilling to see thousands of Filipino talents get well-paid jobs and be inspired by the testimonials of our Raketeers through Raket over the years. This success has motivated our whole team to continuously innovate, improve, and expand our service offerings to support even more Filipino independents. As long as there is a need for our platform, we are committed to developing Raket into a trusted and largest independent talent marketplace in the country,” said Peng.

Now, what makes Raket.PH standout? It's the unwavering dedication to its users. They've always got your back, whether you're someone looking for jobs or in need of some top-notch talent. Trust, transparency, and success are the core of their values!

You see, Raket.PH gets that being an independent professional is not just a ‘gig’ but a whole lifestyle. It's about doing what you love and getting paid for it. That's why they've got an epic lineup of categories like programming and tech, graphics and design, writing and translation, and more. They've got something for everyone, no matter what your field is!

Carlet Enriquez, when asked about the key milestones and achievements of Raket on its 2nd year that she’s most proud of, shared some insightful thoughts:

“As we celebrate Raket.PH’s 2nd anniversary, there are a few key milestones that make us happy and proud.

Meanwhile, let’s hear what some of the Raketeers have to say:

“We got everything we asked for & more with Raket PH! So far, we just added the link to our Facebook bio, yet we get sales passively. Kudos to the team for constantly updating the platform, for having a friendly support team and for building this great community!”

“I’m really proud of all the things we have accomplished thus far. It’s fascinating to witness not just the growth of Raket but also the team that has put a lot of their creativity and efforts into making us reach where we are today. To my partners, Peng and Carlet, to our small but PANGMALAKASAN team - Annie, Miko, Franz, and Bogs, and to our hardworking and skilled developers, I am grateful to be working alongside all of you. To our Raketeers, first, I’d like to say Thank You on behalf of Team Raket for believing and being patient with us. We have a lot of amazing ideas and plans in store for you especially for the coming years! We have encrusted deep into our core as a company the purpose as to why we do this; to show the world our talent, skills, and capabilities as Filipinos! To an adventurous 2 years, and to many more,” said Labajo. 

So, let's raise our glasses and give a big shoutout to Raket.PH, its CEOs—Peng Enriquez, Carlet Enriquez, and JK Labajo (well, you probably know who he is!), and the Raket team on their 2nd anniversary! 🚀

And of course, a heartfelt thanks to the community of Raketeers! Cliché as it may sound, but Raket.PH couldn't have achieved this without the support of over 22,000 of you!

Stick around for the upcoming years. Raket.PH is just getting started. 💪
