Trang — July 2026 Briefing

Trang, welcome to your first full month. This document is your operating guide for July. Read it once in full, then use it as a daily reference. You do not need to check in with Poppet for every task — that is the point of this document. Flora is your day-to-day contact. Poppet reviews your work at the end of each week.

SariKo is pre-launch. We are building the foundation deliberately. Everything you do this month either unlocks trust from investors, protects us legally, or grows our community. There is no filler work. If something feels unclear, flag it to Flora first — not Poppet.

The rule for this month: Six workstreams, but not all equal. Data Room and Agreements are your highest leverage. Social Media is your highest visibility. Do not let the urgent crowd out the important.

MONTH AT A GLANCE

Week 1

Jul 7–11

Data Room audit. Set up Trello and Notion. First social posts live.

Week 2

Jul 14–18

Seller storefronts in review. Advisory agreements chased. Banking docs collected.

Week 3

Jul 21–25

Partnership agreements filed. Storefront content uploaded. Social pillars running.

Week 4

Jul 28–31

Month-end review. All agreements signed and filed. Data Room complete and shared.

Decision authority

You decide and execute alone

You draft, Flora or Poppet approves first

Organizing folders in the Data Room
Scheduling social posts according to the calendar
Setting up Trello boards and Notion pages
Chasing signatures via email or Messenger
Taking product photos or requesting them from sellers
Uploading content to seller storefronts
Logging received documents in the tracker

Any post copy before it goes live
Any message sent to an investor or advisor
Any change to an agreement or legal document
Opening or modifying any bank account
Adding or removing anyone from the Data Room
Any communication sent on behalf of SariKo officially

Six workstreams

Data Room

Investor due diligence infrastructure · Google Drive

Critical Solo

▼

What done looks like: A VC can be given access to the Data Room link and find every document they need — clean, named, and current — without anyone guiding them through it. No broken links. No draft files sitting in final folders. No missing items.

Jul 18Data Room audit complete, Poppet review

Jul 31All sections populated and shareable

Folder structure

Company Overview (deck, one-pager)
Team (bios, contracts, org chart)
Advisors (agreements, bios)
Sellers (signed agreements, KYC)
Legal (incorporation, cap table)
Financials (model, bank statements)
Product (screenshots, PRD, mockups)
Press (Philstar/Freeman article)

Documents to collect

Signed advisor agreements (Rico, Beth, Lalaine, Paul)
Signed FC agreements (Rina, Rico+Zette, Lalaine, Jilleen)
BridgeTech Labs incorporation docs
Zen Tech Asia Co., Ltd. MST certificate
Cap table (PDF export from working file)
All 6 Founding Seller signed agreements
Current pitch deck (docsend link + PDF)
Financial model PDF

Rules

File naming: [Document Name]_[Version]_[YYYYMM]. Example: SellerAgreement_Teresa_v1_202604
No draft files in final folders. Drafts go in a _DRAFTS subfolder
Any document with signatures must be PDF, not DOCX
Poppet must approve before any new access is granted
Link: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Isv8ZSyPOFQMngWvqod6HTBugokq6ven

Why this matters: The Founders Circle gate is $25K committed before formal VC outreach begins. Once we cross that, Poppet begins warm VC outreach. The Data Room must be ready before that call is made. You are building the room that closes the first investor.

Seller Storefronts

Content coordination for 6 Founding Sellers · app.sariko.store

Critical Collab with Flora

▼

What done looks like: All 6 Founding Sellers have a complete storefront — product photos, prices in VND, descriptions, and availability. A buyer landing on any storefront can understand what is being sold and how to order, without calling the seller.

Jul 18Teresa's storefront complete (she is Seller #1, priority)

Jul 25All 6 storefronts content-complete

6 Founding Sellers

#1 Teresa Cantuba — Lutong Quezon
#2 Finez Tidera
#3 Gladz Byko
#4 Elvira — LV's Imported Dry Goods
#5 Vikki Nguyen — PinoyQ
#6 Ara Prociano — Wand RestoBar

Per-seller checklist

Store name and banner photo
Seller bio (2–3 sentences)
All products listed with VND price
Product photos (at least 1 per item)
Product descriptions in English
Availability schedule noted
Contact / order method confirmed

How to execute

Message each seller via Messenger or Viber to collect photos and info
Use Teresa's existing menu (Teresa_Menu_SariKo.html) as template for how to structure content
Upload content when Tri gives you access to the seller dashboard
Send Flora a screenshot of each completed storefront for review before it goes live

Seller #7+ are regular sellers. Ramises Quillope (ramisesquillope@gmail.com) is #7. Do not prioritize regular sellers over Founding Sellers this month. Founding Sellers are the showcase for launch.

Social Media Posting

Facebook community · LinkedIn founder voice · Flora writes, you post

High Collab with Flora

▼

What done looks like: Every scheduled post goes live on time, with the correct hashtags, formatted correctly for the platform, with links in the right place. No missed posting days. If Flora has not delivered copy by the day before a post is due, you chase her — not Poppet.

MonLuto Series (Facebook)

WedLinkedIn — Poppet founder voice

ThuPinoy Pride (Facebook)

FriKomunidad Corner (Facebook)

Facebook rules (auto-execute)

Never put links in the post body
Links go in the FIRST COMMENT, immediately after posting
5 to 8 hashtags per post
Always include: #SariKo #Pangea #FilipinoInHCMC #OFW #FilipinoDiaspora
Add 2–3 contextual hashtags based on the post topic
Taglish is appropriate for community posts

LinkedIn rules (auto-execute)

Links are fine in the post body
3 to 5 professional hashtags only
Always include from: #Diaspora #SEAStartups #Marketplace #FilipinoFounder #Pangea
English only — no Taglish
This is Poppet's personal founder voice. Flora writes it, Poppet approves it, you post it
Company page: linkedin.com/company/sarikostore

Parked pillars (do not activate)

Padala Stories — parked until seller roster finalized
Produkto Spotlight — parked until seller roster finalized
If a seller asks you to feature their product, tell them it is coming soon and log their name for Flora

Your creative role: You can take community photos, film short behind-the-scenes clips, and propose content ideas to Flora. Flora approves all copy before it goes out. You do not write the final copy — you execute it.

Hard rule: Music (Poppet Celdrán artist) and marketplace (SariKo) content never cross-promote in public posts. If you see content that mixes these, flag to Flora before posting.

Accounting and Banking Accounts

In collaboration with Phuong · document collection and tracking only

High Collab with Phuong

▼

What done looks like: All banking and accounting documents are collected, organized in the Data Room, and Phuong has everything she needs from you to move her work forward. You do not make financial decisions. You are the logistics and document layer that supports Phuong.

Jul 14Banking account status documented and in Data Room

WeeklyFriday check-in with Phuong on outstanding items

Banking structure (know this)

USD account: Grey Business — BridgeTech Labs, Inc. (Delaware). For investor/FC funds only
VND account: VPBank Vietnam — Account 252914161. For operations
These two accounts must never be mixed
Euro account: also Grey Business. Status to confirm with Phuong

Your tasks this month

Create a banking accounts tracker in Notion (account, entity, currency, status, purpose)
Collect bank account confirmation documents from Phuong and file in Data Room
Track outstanding GDT tax resolution items Phuong flags — log status weekly
Collect MISA SME setup confirmation once Phuong activates it
Ensure all FC investment receipts are filed (Grey Business)

What you never do

Never initiate a bank transfer or payment
Never open, close, or modify any account
Never communicate with GDT or tax authorities
Never share banking details with anyone without Poppet's explicit approval
If someone asks you for banking info, say: "I'll connect you with Phuong."

Public framing: SariKo is pre-launch. We are being deliberate about the foundation. That is the only thing you say if anyone asks why we are not fully live yet. Never reference tax, compliance, or GDT issues in any public communication.

Tools Setup — Trello and Notion

Build the system that keeps the team in sync

Medium Solo (own this)

▼

What done looks like: By July 18, there is a Trello board where anyone on the team can see what is in progress, and a Notion workspace where key documents and SOPs are stored. These are tools you own and maintain. You decide how to organize them — the test is whether Flora can check task status without asking you.

Jul 11Trello board live and shared with Flora and Poppet

Jul 18Notion workspace set up with key docs and SOPs

Trello — suggested structure

Lists: Backlog / This Week / In Progress / Waiting for Someone / Done
Label colors: red = blocked, orange = urgent, green = done, blue = social, purple = legal/agreements
Each card: clear owner, due date, and a checklist if it has sub-tasks
Invite Flora and Poppet as members
Review and update every Monday morning

Notion — suggested pages

Seller Tracker (name, storefront status, agreement status, contact)
Social Media Calendar (week, platform, pillar, status, copy link)
Banking Accounts Tracker (account, entity, currency, status)
Agreements Tracker (document, person, signed, filed, date)
SOPs — how to post on Facebook, how to post on LinkedIn, how to file documents

Sync rhythm

Monday: update all Trello cards before 10am
Wednesday: send Flora a 5-bullet mid-week status note
Friday: send Poppet a 5-bullet weekly report (what done, what in progress, what blocked)
Keep Notion updated as things change — not all at once on Friday

Partnership and Advisory Agreements

Chase signatures, collect originals, file in Data Room

Medium Collab with Katrina

▼

What done looks like: Every agreement listed below is signed, PDF'd, named correctly, and filed in the Data Room by July 31. You are the logistics person — you do not edit agreements, you do not negotiate terms. Katrina handles legal content. You handle the chase and the filing.

Jul 18All 4 advisor agreements confirmed signed and filed

Jul 25All 6 Founding Seller agreements confirmed signed and filed

Jul 31All FC agreements filed and confirmed

Advisory board (4 active)

Rico Mariano (SKO-ADV-001) · DTI

Lalaine Baldelomar — SKO-FC-004 · $2,500 SAFE
Jilleen Yap — SKO-FC-005 · $1,000 SAFE
Next reference number when new FC signs: SKO-FC-006

Filing rules

All filed agreements must be signed PDFs — no unsigned drafts in the signed folder
Naming: AgreementType_PersonName_SKO-[REF]_YYYYMM.pdf
Log each agreement in the Notion Agreements Tracker the day it is filed
If someone has not signed within 5 days of receiving the document, send one follow-up. If no response after 10 days, escalate to Flora
Never send a new version of an agreement — route to Katrina first

Hard rule on Aimee Alado-Blake: She has been permanently removed from all SariKo materials. Do not include her name in any document, tracker, or communication. If she contacts you directly, inform Flora immediately.
