Turning Point
One of the major moments in Rong Yao’s career when when he resigned from engineering, and ventured into the world of eCommerce. It’s truly the moment when my real career began he says.
When he left his job for eCommerce, he wasn’t quite sure what he was venturing into, but now look!.
Rong Yao has attained unimaginable heights within just a year, and it has put him on track to retire in ten years. That’s truly the “American Dream” now isn’t it?.
Hard work, determination and the ability to trust his gut has brought Rong Yao thus far. As his favourite quote by Henry Ford reads whether you think you can, or think you can’t, you’re right.
The Right Routine
When he is not busy helping others, Rong Yao loves to go to the gym and also go rock climbing during his free time.
During an interview, Rong Yao was asked if he had any advice for young entrepreneurs or anybody who wanted to emerge into the industry. He said “ eCommerce while challenging at times, can be the most rewarding industry. In today’s climate, we’re seeing more online sales than ever before in history, so the market is out there. My biggest piece of advice is to get to know your product and thus, the target market that will seek to find it. Never underestimate the power of words and make sure to tell a story that proves your product’s purpose”.
