Bump Up Your Sales by 60% with 5-Ways Sales Leverage

Everyone wants to increase sales, but few have a structured and systematic way to do so.  We know that sales come from customers, and customers come from prospects. So if we increase our number of customers and number of prospects, our sales would increase, right?  

Wrong!  Other than number of customers, how often your customers buy from you and their average dollar purchase are also important. Just look at Nokia: it used to have the most number of customers in the world, but those customers now don't buy from Nokia anymore and thus Nokia's sales just nosedived. 

In this articles we shall share with you the 5-Ways leverage that you can increase your sales:
  1. It starts with your Target Market, the market that you are targeting
  2. Next, you need Marketing Conversion to convert that Target Market into Prospects
  3. With Selling Conversion, you'll now convert your Prospects into Customers
  4. When they become your customers, you need to get repeat business from them, we called this Number of Transactions
  5. The Average Dollar Sale that you get from your customers will be the last variable factor that complete the sales cycle
Using the following illustration, you can see:

How I Increase My Sales by 60% with Just a 10% Increase:
                                                  Start            Increase       Outcome
Target Market                              200                 10%                220

Marketing Conversion                    10%                 10%                11% 
                  =                                 =                                           = 
No. of Prospects                           20                                       24.2
                 x                                  x                                         x
Selling Conversion                         25%                10%                27.5%
                x                                  x                                          x
                =                                 =                                           = 
No. of Customers                           5                                        6.6
                 x                                 x                                          x
No. of Transactions                        3                   10%                3.3
                 x                                 x                                          x
Average Dollar Sale                       $125               10%               $137.5
                 =                                 =                                          = 
Sales                                        $1,875                                  $2,995

From here you can see that there is a leveraged increase in sales: with just at 10% increase in each of the 5 lines, we have a 60% increase in sales

How do we double sales?  Just increase by 15% as follows:
                                                Start            Increase       Outcome
Target Market                              200                 15%                230

Selling Conversion                         25%                15%                28.75%
                x                                  x                                          x
                =                                 =                                           = 
No. of Customers                           5                                        7.6
                 x                                 x                                          x
No. of Transactions                        3                   15%                3.45
                 x                                 x                                          x
Average Dollar Sale                       $125               10%               $143.75
                 =                                 =                                          = 
Sales                                        $1,875                                  $3,769

For fun, what happens when we double everything? Sales will increase by 3,100%  as follows:
                                                Start            Increase       Outcome

What an Executive Coach and Business Coach Does

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...
