Business and Money Tips

M any people know that I Andy Ng am a WeChat Trainer for years. Inevitably many ask me to help them unblock their WeChat accounts. Every day I receive easily 5 to 10 such requests from all over the world. In fact, one guy called me today while I was holidaying overseas and wanted to pay me US$200 to urgently unblock his blocked account.  I , of course, would like to help you unblock your WeChat accounts, for a fee or for free. BUT I CANNOT HELP YOU UNBLOCK YOUR BLOCKED WECHAT ACCOUNT. This is because I already exceeded my unblock quota of 3 a year. Yes, the quota is only 3 unblocks a year. You have to look for your other WeChat friends to help you unblock your account. If you don't know who are your WeChat friends, you have to look for your close friends to help you. This process may take you as long as a week or a month. NEVER ASK STRANGERS TO UNBLOCK YOUR WECHAT ACCOUNT. This is because you are exposing yourself to dangers as that stranger could make use of your situation and ...

As you may know, I have been in business since the age of 5. Since I left my last employer in the year 2001, I have been running my own business in training and consulting for the last 19 years, out of my total 32 years of working experience.  People inevitably ask me what is a good business that you should get in.  Here are my 6 criteria: Everyone is a potential customer. You don't want to do business where you have to hunt and select your customers. If everyone can be your customer, you don't need to select any more. There are also very little selling and marketing needed.  Don't depend on selling to friends .  It's more complicated to sell to friends, and no matter what, no one has limitless number of friends. You want to be in a business where you can sell to anyone, anywhere and at anytime Your product must be affordable to the masses .  The current business I am in involves an outlay of only S$149 or US$127, which is considered affordable in today...

s Everybody that is anybody has a mobile phone.  Everybody has at least one mobile phone number in their lives.  Some people said that our mobile number is not important as nobody remembers it anymore. Everyone uses address book on their mobile phones to look for anybody, including their loved ones and people that they see and work with every day. So whether your mobile number is good or bad has little effect as you don't even know it, righjt? Well, we all know that knowing something is not important. What is important is what NOT knowing will affect you .  If you think that your mobile number is not important, your mobile number will still affect you.  Imagine having a mobile number that is used by terrorists or criminals, the police will come after you, even though you don't know about it, right?  So is it fair to assume that our mobile number is important, even though we may or may not know about its importance?   Let's look at Yijing, the...

WeChat Moments, No Ordinary Moments ●        WeChat Moments is our social media page where our WeChat friends, and only our WeChat friends and not everyone (unlike Facebook and Instagram), can see what we post.  ●        WeChat Moments is like your Facebook News Feeds, just that the readers are restricted to people that you have added as your WeChat friends, and not everyone as in Facebook.   You can post up to nine photos or one 30-seconds video in your Moments.   WeChat Moments also accepts posts that contain text only without any photos.   Hyperlinks and url shorterners are allowed.

Which company makes the most money? Just by looking at their published hotlines, we can get some hints.  Today let's look at the 4 major electricity retailers in Singapore that cornered 80% market share in a crowded market of 12 electricity retailers: Keppel, Geneco, iSwitch and Tuas Power KEPPEL ELECTRIC 68033888 GENECO 63636677 ISWITCH 69559900 TUAS POWER 68385565 KEPPEL ELECTRIC 68033888 680 Money gone 8033888 Platform continues and becomes big This means that Keppel Electric put in lots of money into its platform. Indeed Keppel cornered 27% of the market share with 150,000 customers as of Oct 2019 (date per EMA). But note that Keppel has grown very big as its nearest rival Geneco only has 22% market share. BUT KEPPEL ELECTRIC has no wealth number , that means, it does not make money out of this business GENECO 63636677 636366 Rapidly changing (4 times) 677 win lots of friends This means that Geneco went through many changes in its business but m...

Although we only can have maximum 5,000 friends in one WeChat account, we can reach out to more than 5,000 friends using Group chats, Moments, Official Account and Mini Program.  A.     Group Chats There is no limit to the number of Group chats that we can join or set up.  Each group chat can have a maximum 500 people, and most of these people may not be your WeChat friends.  When you post messages in these group chats that make people like you, these people are your friends, EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE NOT ADDED THEM AS YOUR WECHAT FRIEND. In business, people like to buy from friends. So the number of people that you can reach via Group chats is infinitite. B.  Moments People mistakenly think that only our WeChat friends can read our Moments. In reality, our WeChat Moments can also reach out to people that are Not our WeChat friends through 4 ways: People Nearby, Friend Radar, Paid Advertisements and Reposting or Forwarding .  When you se...

Many people want to know, other than their mobile number, is their IC number, house number, car plate number and birth date important too?  We know that anything that moves has more power than anything that doesn't move .  Like a fan that has its blades move generates power than a still fan. So to know if your IC number, house number, birth date and car plate number will affect you or not, we have to know if they move or not. If they do move, do they move a lot?  The more they move, the bigger is the effect.   1. IC Number Y our IC number doesn't move and few people know this , other than the organizations that you deal with, eg banks, and they too will not remember it.  If they want to look for you, they need to contact you, usually through your mobile number, and ask you for your IC number in order to retrieve your file.  2. House number Your house number is known to few and is stationary most of the time and only moves if you put the house numbe...

As you know, Yin is soft and Yang is hard, yin is dark while yang is bright. Yin is also negative while yang is positive. In customizing a mobile number for our clients, we need to balance the yin and the yang. A good mobile number cannot be made up of all auspicious numbers as it is very unbalanced and will create chaos. This is like in a country where you have only businessmen and no other types of people. There will be simply no business you can do because everyone is a businessman and they just want to do business with you and not consume and enjoy life. Generally, if your mobile numbers have these digits in the middle and the end, you have a negative mobile number. The following are the common 9 lists of negative that are very ferocious: 18, 81, 97, 67, 36, 63, 24, 42 16, 61, 47, 74, 38, 83, 29, 92 17, 71, 89, 98, 64, 46, 23, 32 12, 21, 96, 69, 48, 84, 37, 73 103, 301, 806, 608, 409, 904, 207, 702 1811, 8111, 9711, 7111, 3633, 6333 104, 401, 607, 706, 309 ,903, 20...

Following my post yesterday about Singtel, M1 and Starhub, some people asked me to analyse the fortunes of countries just by looking at their year of birth. Let's dive in: USA: 1776 17 = Talk for a living, Talk to Get Money 77 = Hidden or Waiting 76 = Many friends Through talking, USA becomes a world no. 1 leader and today is still number in talking trades eg seminars, webinars, toastmasters etc. Note that USA has many friends but  there is no wealth in USA number China: 1949 19 = Leading 949 = Wealth double China was already number 1 in the year of birth as it was the world's largest population country. Now it leads in money as well. Just look at so many products made in China and WeChat Pay, Alipay, Double 11 Sale etc and you'll know what I am talking about. * Note that China has two wealth numbers here *. Now you know which country is the richest in the world Singapore: 1965 19 = Leading 965 = Investment and Hardworking Singapore is leading th...

Singtel, M1 and Starhub command 95% of the mobile phone market share. Their customer service hotlines are made of 4 digits only. Today I shall analyse them: Singtel 1688 16 = Platform 68 = Wealth (large) 88 = Subdued and Continuing This means Singtel Mobile leverage on a large platform and makes huge money continuously for years to come M1 1622 16 = Platform 62 = Leading 22 = Subdued and Continuing This means M1 leverage on a large platform and becomes a leader, albeit a small leader, for years to come Starhub 1633 16 = Platform 633 = Rapidly and Continuously This means Starhub leverage on a large platform and in order to make it, it changes rapidly and frequently and continuously. There is no wealth number here.  From the above, you can see only Singtel makes the most money. But M may have a longer life and not easily acquired, compared to Starhub.  What do you think? Do you have a company's telephone or mobile number for us to analyse? First 13 p...
