Meet Merry Riana!

If there's anything more attractive I find about chiobus, its successful chiobus who suceeded well in life without sitting the boss's laptop.

So who is this Merry Riana?



She is an entrepreneur, an author and a trainer (which is what I want in life too).
She did what plenty of us could not achieve - Earning $700k after 4 years of graduation, despite her $40k study loan debt.

And she's a millionaire at 26, just like my idol - Adam Khoo.

Instead of going for the first job available in the market upon graduation like what I did, she turned to insurance sales immediately. Well, we all know how hard it is in the insurance line. As in most industries, only a few succeed (like Mr Hippo's Ah Lian insurance agent and Joe's multi-income, super agent).

If there's something I like about sales industry - its the unlimited ability to earn, unlike a fixed income jobs most of us are holding. Unfortunately, most Singaporeans find sales very unattractive, citing that "I can't do sales". The truth is, we are doing sales everyday, be it explaining why Katong Laksa is good, or getting your kid to eat the greens. Robert Kiyosaki has once told a talented Singaporean writer that she can write well, but may not go far without working on her sales skills.

Merry is the author of the newly released book "A Gift from a Friend", a book that talks about her journey about stepping into an industry unknown to her.

(Hey, same red colour tight-fitting shirt!)
She deploys layman language, and short stories to present her points.
And its only $12 (and nope, i don't get advertisement comissions).

And if you don't think her name sounds local, you are right!
She's an Indonesian working in Singapore.

And I'm a Malaysian working in Singapore.

You are right! She is good, however just keep in that she is in fact a TRAINER!!

If you are a trainer would you tell someone if you are unsuccessful?

Do you going to tell both of the stories?

Do the rich people tell about their earnings? NO, infact they kept quiet just for the sake for avoiding the tax!

News can be bought and they can wrote what ever they like about themselves.That is is the life for the trainer

Even Anthony Robbins, the most richest and influential trainer is clouded by lawsuits and lies.
