The week was like warefare...
merged into a price war...
the bloodshed result.
It wasn't just winning over competitors,
but totally moving them out of market.
Back into the kinda scenario that reminded me of the days as
an Artillery Officer...they say a soldier 'cheong sua' with guns and fighting machines...
while we fight with the calculators and computerized tech...
I was practically punching numbers and formulas in the calculator at various different situations...
different moments...different customers....different problems....I brought different pricing...
my mind was kept busy round the clock..solving big project problems....finding best pricing for acceptance...
and yet making the big marks. I aiming at a 10k profit margin this week...but damn it I hit only about 9.
Yet all at the same time...closing international deals...which was totally difficult since I was dealing with chinese...
Mandrin wasn't making anything easier for me. So trying to hit at that darn freaking few pallet load sales was
like trying to teach a duck to swim...
sometimes it was like a chicken and duck talk.

But through this process I realised one factor...
Solve a customer's problems and pricing isn't a question with added good and personal services...
I found myself hitting a 350% at one....shocked me at how it was possible.
From this blog, it should serve as a reminder to me...
as long as you have the will and keep trying...out of nowhere, there is money to make...
there are infinite possibilities.

Aiming to hit my next mark....I'm gona try for november.
And here I go again!
