Multiply Your Sales Easily in 7 Ways

The biggest mistake in business must be to think that one plus one is two. Imagine you have 2 salespersons selling $2 million, when you hire a new salesperson, your sales cannot be $3 million, it must be higher or something is wrong.  You must achieve this thing called LEVERAGE, or SYNERGY or ever more with ever less.  Here are 7 reasons why one plus one is never two in sales:
  1. Just 1 sales idea implemented will produce sales far more than the course fee (as we now have PIC 60% subsidy for training)
  2. Stimulated Environment, especially when you have a high flying salesperson, your entire sales team will be motivated to achieve more than ever
  3. Splash in the Market, when you do aggressive sales and marketing activities, the entire market will wake up to your offer and your sales will just have to go up
  4. Referrals from customers, when you get 5 new customers, even if you get one new referred customer from them, your customer base will expand by 20%
  5. Teamwork, when your sales is good, your company will enjoy higher bonus, everyone will be happy and teamwork will naturally improve, resulting in even more sales
  6. Product Improvements.  Let's face it: only with higher sales volume will you have the money to improve your product. But you need to start somewhere, and training your entire sales team is a good start. (click here for the 9 things that sales training must cover) 
  7. Sell at Higher Average Dollar Sale.  This is the fastest way to increase sales, and there are 36 stratagems to do so, details at here.

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...
