Selling doesn’t need to feel messy, pushy, or confusing.
When sales are clear and focused, results follow naturally.
.
Yet many organisations struggle with:
😰 Low conversion rates despite having leads
😰 Customers are pushing for discounts because the value isn’t clear
😰 Sales leaders feel overwhelmed or unsure of direction
😰 Businesses are working hard but feeling stuck in growth
.

Ten years ago, we started this journey together, not fully knowing what life and the years ahead would bring.

Over the past decade, there have been plenty of:
• laughter
• learning
• challenges
• and many unforgettable moments.

Building a business and travelling often mean long days and unpredictable schedules.

Behind all of that, there is always you, quietly supporting the journey.

Thank you for your patience, your encouragement, and for always keeping me grounded.

Grateful for the past decade together.

Looking forward to many more years of adventures ahead. ❤️

After my anniversary post, I received many kind messages and comments.

Thank you, truly appreciate it.

It also got me thinking about something.

The strongest relationships, whether in life or in business, are built on the same foundation:
👉 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁.

Not convincing.
Not pushing.
Not rushing.

👉 𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴.
/
In sales, I often see the opposite.

People jump into presenting too quickly.
They try to “close” before they even understand.

But customers don’t buy because you explained well.

They buy because they feel understood.

That’s why great sales conversations are not about talking more.

They are about asking better questions.

And listening carefully.

The same principle applies beyond sales.

→ In leadership.
→ In partnerships.
→ In life.

Simple idea.

But not always easy to practice.

🧧 Chinese New Year is over.

Your sales targets didn’t pause.
Your competitors didn’t slow down.
And Q1 is more than halfway.

The first 10 working days after a festive break
quietly determine how the next 90 days will unfold.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth:
→ Some sales leaders ease back in.
→ Some wait for the team to “warm up.”
→ Some hope momentum will return on its own.

It rarely does.

𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵-𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝘀𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 reset immediately.
Not with pressure.
But with clarity.

They:
• Re-align the numbers and priorities
• Re-establish daily discipline
• Re-set the standard of conversations
• Rebuild accountability from the ground up

Momentum is not accidental.

It is a leadership decision.

Strong sales leaders move early.

What would you do in the 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝟰𝟴 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀 to set the pace?

♻️ Follow LeikHong for practical insights on sales leadership and performance.

Most sales meetings are a waste of time.

I know.

Because I used to sit through them.

When I was a salesperson, our company flew the entire sales team into HQ every month.

Flights. Hotels. Full-day meetings.

The company invested a lot of money.

We invested a lot of time.

And yet, many of us quietly felt the same thing:
This isn’t productive.

Why?

Because the entire day was mostly:
• Going around the room giving updates
• Reporting numbers that were already in the system
• Listening to long presentations
• Very little real coaching

We left with more slides.

But, not clearer decisions.
→ The same stuck deals remained stuck.
→ The same weak strategies remained weak.

And next month, we repeated it again.

That’s when I realised:
A sales meeting should not be a reporting session.

If your CRM already shows the numbers,
the meeting should focus on what the numbers don’t show.

High-performing sales meetings do three things:
1️⃣ They challenge assumptions behind key deals
2️⃣ They coach strategy in real time
3️⃣ They force clear decisions before people leave the room

If no behaviour changes after the meeting,
the meeting was theatre.
Not leadership.

Sales meetings should create momentum, not maintain routine.

If you lead a sales team:
What’s one thing you’ve changed to make your meetings more effective?

Most salespeople think selling is about presenting well.

But over the years, I’ve learned something different.

Great salespeople don’t start with presentations.

They start with 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀.

Good discovery builds trust.
Great discovery builds deals.

Poor discovery often leads to price objections later.

That’s why in 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘎𝘶𝘪𝘥𝘦, I emphasise one core idea:
𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗽𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁.
𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿’𝘀 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁.

Ask better questions.
Listen carefully.
Then position your solution.

Simple in theory.
But powerful in practice.

👇 Quick question for fellow sellers:

After sending the website structure PDF to quite a number of founders and business owners this week, I noticed something interesting.

Most websites don’t have a 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰 problem.

They have a 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 problem.

Most websites don’t fail because of design.

They fail because of 𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝘆𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴.

The homepage usually talks about:
• The company history
• How long the business has existed
• Awards and certifications

But the visitor is usually thinking something much simpler:
“𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘷𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘮?”

Within the first few seconds, your website should answer 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆:
1️⃣ What problem do you solve
2️⃣ Who is it for
3️⃣ What should I do next

If visitors have to figure it out themselves, they usually leave.

This applies not only to websites.

It also applies to:
• Company profiles
• Sales decks
• LinkedIn profiles
• Marketing brochures

Clarity converts.

Confusion kills interest.

Sometimes, improving sales results is not about more traffic.

It’s about clearer messaging.

𝗜’𝗺 𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹.

High performance without recovery leads to burnout.
→ Running a business.
→ Leading a sales team.
→ Chasing targets.

These are high-pressure careers.
And it’s very easy to slip into anxiety without noticing.

Stress doesn’t usually explode.
It accumulates quietly.

🟢 That’s why learning to de-stress is a performance strategy.

Inside our bodies, we already have four powerful chemicals that regulate how we feel.

As a high performer, you need to manage your 𝗽𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆.

Because when your energy is stable:
• Your thinking becomes clearer
• Your conversations become calmer
• Your decisions become sharper

And sharp decisions compound.

As entrepreneurs and sales professionals,
what’s one small habit you use to reset your energy during the week?

Follow LeikHong for practical insights on performance, leadership, and selling better.

Most business websites don’t have a traffic problem.

They have a clarity problem.

Within 5 seconds, a visitor should know:
• What you do
• Who it’s for
• Why it matters

If they can’t answer those three questions quickly,
they leave.

I’ve reviewed many SME and sales-driven websites over the years.

Common issues:
– The header talks about the company, not the customer
– The value proposition is vague
– Too many options, no clear next step
– No structured journey from problem → solution → action

A website should not just look good.

It should guide.

So I created a simple wireframe structure I use with clients to design customer-centric websites that actually convert.

It walks through:
1. The 5-second header
2. Positioning the customer as the hero
3. Clear value proposition
4. Simple 3-step process
5. Testimonials and proof
6. Strategic call-to-action placement

Most salespeople think deals are lost at the proposal stage.

They’re not.

They are usually lost much earlier.

During the 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

I’ve listened to hundreds of sales calls over the years.

The pattern is always the same.

Salespeople rush to explain their product.

They present too early.
They pitch too much.
They assume too quickly.

But great salespeople do something very different.

They slow down.

They ask better questions.

Because the quality of your discovery determines:
• the strength of your solution
• the level of trust you build
• whether price becomes an objection later

Poor discovery creates price pressure.

Strong discovery creates value.

So I put together a simple framework that I use when coaching sales teams on 𝗿𝘂𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘀.

You can save this and use it in your next sales conversation.
Better questions → deeper understanding
Deeper understanding → stronger solutions
Stronger solutions → better deals.

For a long time, I thought success was the goal.⁣...
⁣
Targets achieved.⁣
Milestones unlocked.⁣
Recognition earned.⁣
⁣
And if I’m honest, there was a season in my life where that was enough.⁣
⁣
Success feels measurable.⁣
It feels visible.⁣
It gives you something to point to and say, “I’ve made progress.”⁣
⁣
But over time, I began to notice something subtle.⁣
⁣
Success can fill your calendar.⁣
It can fill your bank account.⁣
It can even fill your ego.⁣
⁣
Yet it doesn’t always fill your life with meaning.⁣
⁣
The shift for me didn’t happen overnight. It came from years of realigning what success truly means for me…and from being inspired by the people around me (my wife, my friends, colleagues).⁣
⁣
It has helped me realise that…⁣
⁣
Success is often measured by what you gain.⁣
Significance is measured by what you leave behind.⁣
⁣
And the two are not mutually exclusive.⁣
⁣
In fact, the most powerful leaders I’ve observed aim for both.⁣
⁣
They pursue excellence relentlessly.⁣
But they anchor their ambition to something larger than themselves.⁣
⁣
They align their goals not just with personal growth, but with industry standards, community uplift, and the long-term wellbeing of the people around them.⁣
⁣
I’ve come to realise that when your decisions are driven purely by fame, comparison, or ego, they tend to narrow your world.⁣
⁣
But when they are driven by significance, they expand it.⁣
⁣
You think more long-term.⁣
You build more carefully.⁣
You choose differently.⁣⁣
⁣
When you strive not only to achieve, but to contribute…your work stops being just about you.⁣
⁣
It becomes something that outlives you.

Interesting how some people plan their legacy down to the tiniest detail!
⁣
Not just their assets.⁣
Not just their instructions.⁣
But even the final words they want the world to hear.⁣
⁣
I came across this image recently and thought it was interesting to share.⁣
⁣
It spoke about Jackie Chan secretly recording a farewell song - one that will only be released after he passes away.⁣
⁣
A final voice.⁣
A final expression.⁣
Prepared long before the moment arrives.⁣
⁣
It’s a powerful reminder that legacy planning looks different for everyone.⁣
⁣
For some, it isn’t something they think about at all.⁣

Life is moving quickly.⁣
There are businesses to build, families to raise, responsibilities to manage.⁣

Thinking about what happens after we’re gone can feel distant… even unnecessary.⁣
⁣
But for others, legacy is something they consider deeply.⁣

Sometimes quietly.⁣
Sometimes years in advance.⁣
Sometimes down to the smallest detail.⁣
⁣
Not because they are preoccupied with death…but because they are intentional about what they leave behind.⁣
⁣
Over time, I’ve come to realise that legacy planning isn’t just about wealth, assets, or legal structures.⁣
⁣
👉 It’s about expression.⁣
👉 It’s about care.⁣
👉 It’s about deciding what parts of ourselves continue to speak when we no longer can.⁣
⁣
For some, that may mean a carefully structured estate plan.⁣

For others, it may simply be ensuring their loved ones are provided for.⁣

And for a few, it could be something as personal as a final message, a recorded voice, or a gesture that carries meaning long after they are gone.⁣
⁣
There is no single “right” way to think about legacy.⁣
⁣
But perhaps the quiet truth is this:⁣
⁣
In the end, what we leave behind will always reflect how intentionally we chose to live and how thoughtfully we chose to be remembered.


#legacy #legacyplanning

Some family disputes are about money.⁣
But the ones that linger for years are often about clarity, timing, and intention.⁣
⁣
The Genting inheritance saga (one of Malaysia’s most closely watched estate battles) has entered another pivotal chapter.⁣
⁣
It began in 2022, when Lim Siew Kim, daughter of Genting Group founder Lim Goh Tong, signed a final will just months before her death from advanced ovarian cancer. That will redistributed her multi-million-ringgit estate in ways that surprised many, prompting two of her daughters to challenge its validity in court.⁣
⁣
Fast forward to early 2026, and the trial is well underway… 

Disputes over evidence, 
questions about her mental capacity at the time of signing, 
and allegations of suspicious circumstances have kept this case in the headlines. 

Not merely as a legal battle, but as a reflection of how fragile estate plans can become when intentions are unclear.⁣
⁣

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗽𝘂𝘁𝗲 ⬇️⁣
⁣
• Multiple wills in quick succession (Several testamentary documents were created within a short timeframe, raising questions about consistency and genuine intent)⁣

• Uneven distribution of assets (The final will left a significant portion of the estate to certain beneficiaries and a foundation, leaving others with comparatively little)⁣

• Capacity concerns (Given her terminal illness at the time, there are serious allegations that she lacked the mental capacity to execute a valid will)
⁣

These are not just legal technicalities. 
They are human issues.

About understanding, fairness, timing, and respect for a person’s final wishes…⁣
⁣

𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝟯 𝗸𝗲𝘆 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗲:⁣
⁣
1️⃣ Consistency protects clarity⁣
Having multiple testamentary documents drafted within a short time frame can create ambiguity about the true intentions of the person signing them. Clarity of intent matters…Not just legality.⁣
⁣
2️⃣ Capacity must be evident and documented⁣
When health issues are involved, establishing and documenting mental capacity becomes essential.⁣
⁣
3️⃣ Transparency reduces conflict⁣
When family members feel excluded or unclear about decisions, disputes often follow - not always out of malice, but out of uncertainty. 

⁣
At its core, this isn’t just a story about money or inheritance.⁣
It’s a story about how we choose to communicate what matters most.⁣
⁣
Because a will is more than a legal document.⁣
It is the last voice of intention left behind.⁣
⁣
And if that voice isn’t clear…

The meaning it was meant to carry can be lost in the very dispute it was meant to prevent.

Will inheritance-tax insurance solve the problem?

I came across an article recently where someone with a £3 million estate battled exactly that question. 

The underlying concern was clear = how do you protect your family from a potentially large tax bill without overcomplicating things?⁣
⁣
The article’s main message was simple but important:⁣
⁣
👉 Inheritance-tax insurance can help.⁣
👉 But it is not a magic solution.⁣
⁣
And this is where many people misunderstand it.⁣
⁣
Many assume inheritance-tax insurance always solves the problem. 

But it’s just one tool, and its value depends on proper structuring and alignment with overall plans.⁣
⁣⁣
That’s why inheritance planning is rarely about a single product.⁣
⁣
It’s about context.⁣
⁣
➡️ Different families have different asset mixes.⁣
➡️ Different countries have different tax regimes.⁣
➡️ Different stages of life require different strategies.⁣
⁣
What works in the UK may not apply in Singapore.⁣
What works for a business owner may not work for someone asset-rich but cash-light.⁣
⁣
There are also alternative approaches (gifting strategies, trusts, corporate structures)... 

Each with their own timelines, 
tax implications, 
and technical requirements. 

And each comes with blind spots if not structured carefully.⁣
⁣
The real lesson here isn’t about whether to buy insurance.⁣
⁣
It’s about understanding that estate planning is layered.⁣
⁣⁣
Which is why professional legal and advisory guidance isn’t just helpful…It’s essential. 

Not because the concepts are impossible to grasp, but because the execution requires precision.⁣
⁣
Inheritance planning is not about finding a quick fix.⁣
⁣
It’s about building a structure that holds across jurisdictions, across generations, and across the uncertainties none of us can fully predict.

Sometimes, the most important market signals appear when nothing seems to be happening at all.⁣
⁣
⁣On 16 February, Singapore’s STI ended the trading day almost unchanged (inching up just 0.02% to 4,938.58). 

A marginal move, especially on the eve of Chinese New Year. 

But beneath that stillness was a clear message about how investors are thinking right now.⁣
⁣
The market wasn’t reacting.⁣
It was observing.⁣
⁣
This subdued performance reflects a prevailing sense of caution. 

A collective pause. 

A “wait-and-see” stance where many investors are holding back from significant moves.

Part of this caution also stems from the broader economic backdrop. Singapore’s trade recovery at the start of 2026 has been slightly weaker than expected. 

Key exports still grew 9.3% year-on-year (a positive figure) but the pace fell short of forecasts, reminding us that global demand remains uneven.⁣
⁣
Yet there is also a constructive way to view this.⁣
⁣
A slower-than-expected recovery does not necessarily signal weakness. 

It often reflects an economy recalibrating after a period of volatility… stabilising, consolidating, and building a more sustainable base for future growth.

And in many ways, this is how mature markets behave.⁣
⁣
Flat markets are often misunderstood. And this calls for a different kind of mindset.⁣
⁣
In bullish markets, confidence comes easily.⁣
In volatile markets, urgency takes over.⁣
But in quiet, cautious markets like this, discipline matters most.⁣
⁣
For seasoned investors and business owners alike, these quieter phases are not idle periods. 

They are moments to reassess fundamentals, strengthen positioning, and maintain clarity about long-term objectives.⁣
⁣
Not every opportunity announces itself loudly.⁣
Not every signal comes with dramatic price movements.⁣
⁣
Sometimes, the most telling sign is simply this:⁣
A market that chooses not to rush.⁣
⁣
And perhaps that is the broader reflection as we enter the new year.⁣
⁣
Progress does not always appear in sharp upward lines.⁣

Stability does not always feel exciting.⁣

But both are often necessary foundations for what comes next.⁣



#MarketInsights #LongTermInvesting

Some documents are signed in ink.⁣ Others are signed in clarity.⁣
⁣
And when clarity is missing, even the most important documents can quietly fall apart.⁣
⁣
A recent Singapore High Court case in 2025 brought this into sharp focus.⁣
⁣
An elderly woman had signed a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA), appointing individuals to manage her affairs. 

On paper, everything seemed in order.⁣

But there was one critical question:⁣ Did she truly understand what she was signing?⁣
⁣
She had been diagnosed with dementia in 2020.⁣ By July 2023, it had progressed to moderate dementia.⁣

In August 2023 (after that diagnosis) she executed the LPA.⁣
⁣
The court examined whether she had the mental capacity to do so.⁣

Not just whether she could sign.⁣ But whether she could understand, retain, weigh, and communicate the implications of the decision.⁣
⁣
The conclusion was clear.⁣
She did not.⁣
⁣
Her memory issues and limited awareness of her own assets meant she could not fully appreciate the scope and consequences of the powers she was granting.⁣

The LPA was ruled invalid.⁣
⁣
And just like that, a document meant to provide certainty created uncertainty instead.⁣
⁣
This case carries a quiet but important reminder that…
⁣
Estate planning is not just about having documents in place.⁣ It’s about WHEN and HOW they are put in place.⁣
⁣
Because capacity is not a formality.⁣
It is the foundation.⁣
⁣
To execute an LPA, a person must understand what they are giving, who they are empowering, and how those decisions will shape their future. 

This goes beyond simple awareness. It requires the ability to weigh choices and consequences.⁣
⁣
This is yet another reminder that the right time to plan is not when urgency arrives...⁣but when clarity still exists.⁣
⁣
Because once that clarity fades, even the most carefully signed papers may no longer be able to carry the weight of a person’s true intentions.⁣

In today’s world, relevance is easy to achieve. Timelessness is much harder.⁣
⁣
I recently watched a short clip where Ralph Lauren spoke about his view on timelessness. ⁣
⁣
He said he loves the sense of integrity and non-obsolescence.⁣
⁣
That idea stayed with me.⁣
⁣
Because in a world that moves as quickly as ours does today, many things are designed to expire.⁣
⁣
Trends change.⁣
Platforms rise and fall.⁣
Attention shifts overnight.⁣
⁣
It becomes easy to chase what is current rather than what is lasting.⁣
⁣
But the deeper lesson behind timelessness is this:⁣
👉 build things that do not rely on trends to remain valuable.⁣
⁣
This applies far beyond fashion.⁣
⁣
It applies to the things we choose to learn.⁣
Skills that compound rather than expire.⁣
⁣
It applies to how we build our businesses.⁣
Principles that hold even when markets change.⁣
⁣
It applies to the relationships we nurture.⁣
Trust that strengthens over years, not moments.⁣
⁣
The most meaningful investments are often the quiet ones.⁣
⁣
Integrity.⁣
Craft.⁣
Character.⁣
Long-term thinking.⁣
⁣
These are not the fastest paths to recognition.⁣
⁣
But they are often the things that endure.⁣
⁣
And perhaps that is the real reminder.⁣
⁣
In a world where so much fades quickly…⁣
it may be worth asking ourselves a simple question:⁣
⁣
Are we building something that merely works today…⁣
or something that will still matter years from now?

The next level of impact isn’t built by effort alone.
It’s built by focus.

Recently read “10x Is Easier Than 2x” by Dan Sullivan and Benjamin Hardy, and it challenged how I think about growth…not just in business, but in leadership, time, and identity!
⁣
What stayed with me most is this: 
👉 real expansion isn’t about doing more… it’s about becoming more intentional about what only you should do.⁣
⁣

Here are a few learning points from the book:⁣
⁣
• Excellence compounds when you concentrate on your highest-value 20% and design a team that carries the remaining 80% with strength and ownership.⁣

• Exponential results come from focusing on what only you can do best and committing to mastery rather than multiplying effort.⁣

• Bigger, non-linear goals reduce competition and require you to design backwards from the outcome you truly want.⁣

• Wealth is created by deep specialization and by expressing your unique ability beyond the boundaries of comfort.⁣

• Growth becomes sustainable when you measure progress against your past self rather than an ever-moving ideal.⁣

• Every experience becomes an asset when you consciously convert it into lessons that guide better decisions.⁣

• Intentional recovery is not indulgence but strategy. Structured rest protects long-term performance.⁣

• Freedom and scale emerge when you build self-led teams and stop being the operational bottleneck.⁣
⁣

One insight felt especially relevant for leaders and advisors in our space:⁣
✔️ you cannot scale impact if you remain central to every decision.⁣
⁣
Whether we’re guiding families in legacy planning or building advisory teams, the shift from control to clarity is what allows something meaningful to outlive us.⁣
⁣
Growth is not about squeezing more into your calendar.⁣

It’s about strengthening your foundation so what you build can carry further and serve more people over time.⁣
