You Got a Problem in Sales

You got a problem in sales.

Your product is not first in its class, nor is it second. Maybe your product is outmoded. Or it hasn’t been positioned correctly.  Maybe it is competing in a very crowded market.

It doesn’t matter the reason.  The fact is people are not going to buy your product, no matter how you sell.

Welcome to Selling Sand to the Arabs, the situation faced by people from selling ice to the Eskimos to selling hot weather to Singaporeans.

If you are now selling a product that few have, like iPhone, or you are selling something at the lowest price, like Xiaomi, do not read further.

This course is for people who want to sell when people don’t want to buy.

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."

The dramatic turnaround in this song’s fate is not merely a musical legend; it offers a profound life lesson: the greatest stroke of luck in life is not about how perfect you are, but about encountering the "right people", those who truly understand you, support you, and help you realize your potential, at exactly the right moment.
