Why we changed our name to ATIN.PH

Why We Changed the Name from vendr.shop to atin.ph  
In the dynamic world of digital commerce, a name isn't just a label; it’s a reflection of our mission, values, and the community we aim to build. When we started as vendr.shop, our goal was to create a platform where local creators could easily sell their products online. While we succeeded in building a functional and effective marketplace, we felt that our name did not fully capture the essence and spirit of our platform.

Embracing Our Roots  
The decision to rebrand to atin.ph stems from our desire to embrace our roots and put a spotlight on our mission: to support and celebrate local talent. “Atin” is a Filipino word meaning “ours,” and this simple yet profound term encapsulates our vision of a community-driven platform. atin.ph isn’t just a marketplace; it’s a space where creators and customers alike can feel a sense of ownership and pride in supporting local ingenuity.

Reflecting Community and Collaboration  
vendr.shop served us well, but it leaned heavily on the transactional nature of our platform. We wanted a name that goes beyond transactions to reflect the collaborative spirit and community focus we are passionate about. atin.ph signifies unity, collaboration, and collective success. It embodies the idea that when we support each other, we grow together. This name change is about fostering a sense of belonging and mutual support among creators, customers, and the broader community.

A Stronger Connection to Our Audience  
Our new name, atin.ph, fosters a stronger emotional connection with our audience. It’s a name that resonates deeply with our local community, making it clear that this platform is built for them, by them. atin.ph is a community hub where creators can share their stories, connect with their audience, and support each other’s growth. It’s not just about selling products; it’s about building relationships and creating a supportive network of like-minded individuals.

Looking Ahead  
As atin.ph, we are excited to continue our journey with a renewed focus and clearer purpose. This rebranding is a step towards realizing our vision of a thriving community where local creators are empowered to share their talents and stories with the world. We believe that by working together, we can create something truly special – a community platform that genuinely feels like it belongs to all of us.

Thank you for being a part of this journey. We look forward to growing and succeeding together as atin.ph.
