Outsmart, Outlast and Outclose

“Outsmart, Outlast, Outclose — The Strategy Behind Every Successful Sale” AndyTheCoach

Sun Tzu wrote:

“The skillful warrior wins first and then goes to war, while the unskilled warrior goes to war first and then seeks to win.”

Sales is the same. The best salespeople win before they sell — by planning, positioning, and perceiving correctly.

You don’t close deals by chance; you close them by strategy.

From my years of teaching Sun Tzu Art of War for Business, I’ve distilled six key strategies that transform ordinary selling into effortless winning.

Sun Tzu said: “To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.” 不战而屈人之兵，善之善者也

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.

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...

Have You Found Your Sun Yi and Teresa Teng?

I n the long, unfolding history of the Chinese-language music scene, "The Moon Represents My Heart" 月亮代表我的心 stands as an unsurpassable milestone. Yet, the journey of this globally renowned masterpiece, a song that would eventually captivate the world, was fraught with setbacks: it was once dismissed as "trash" by its own creator and tossed into a wastebasket, later suppressed by official policy as a "banned song ," and initially failed to gain any traction when performed by two different singers. 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.
