How to Increase Your WeChat Friends Quickly

Before learning about WeChat, 90% of my students think that WeChat is a very slow tool. Compared with Facebook, LinkedIn and Whatsapp, adding friends on WeChat takes longer. But to me making WeChat friends is very easy.

Take me as an example. In April 2017, I had only 480 WeChat friends. Today (21 May 2018), I have 2,609 friends. There are many ways to quickly increase your WeChat friends, but I find this method to be the most effective.

The method is not advertising but to share my innermost feelings on WeChat. This is because most people are sick and tired of advertising and prefer to hear real voices. What can be more real and touching than your own voice?

I send three to five messages a day on Wechat Moments, 1 to 2 messages to my group chats, and broadcast 1 to 2 messages a week.

Because of what I do, there is on average 5 people who want to add me as friends on WeChat every day. This is how I add 1,600 friends a year.

What do I share on WeChat that make people want to add me as friends? I offer value in all my messages.

There are five kinds of sharing that people find value:

1. Knowledge of WeChat and WeChat Innovations. People who use WeChat may not know much about WeChat, so I educate everyone about WeChat

2. Cheap and good food and supplies. I only introduce food and supplies that are affordable, such as hawker centre meals and high value low-cost mobile phones

3. Stories of motivation and human spirit, such as how many students I have touched today and what breakthroughs they have made

4. Simple pleasures of life, such as movies, scenery, travel, family meals, music and fun activities with friends.

5. In-depth articles and interesting new knowledge, including free seminars, networking events or trainings with special offers, like 67% discount on my WeChat courses.

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...
