The Oldest Yet Most Effective Sales Tactic

Successful salespeople use a very effective sales tactic that win business over easily. This tactic is actually a process that sells without selling. It is said that a good salesperson never sells anything, he simply creates the conditions for buyers to buy by themselves. This is because selling is defined as professionally helping other people to buy.

The oldest and most effective tactic is Asking Questions.

You see, when you ask questions you are not selling. You're helping the buyer to solve problems. Asking questions helps you to find out what are the real needs of your customer to determine how much they are willing to pay for a solution.

But you cannot just ask a few questions and expect a sale. You need to ask the RIGHT Questions in the RIGHT ORDER.

Other than that, you also need to use questions to overcome sales objections. It is said that the real job of a salesperson is in overcoming sales objections. For if he cannot overcome sales objections, the sales objections will overwhelm him and he will be out of sales.

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years. Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself? At least I have better discipline". It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
