Our Background

What was your biggest impact on growth?
Richard Fong: My father. I appreciate the firmness and dedication of his family. When she was eight months pregnant with me, she went to America from China. When I was eight years old, I did not even land in Kansas. My parents fought in the United States, working in a restaurant during the day, learning English at night and sleeping on the restaurant floor.

Eventually, he opened his own restaurant, where I started as a dishwasher and busboy at the age of 11. I watched my father work 13 hours in the hot and humid kitchen. He taught me a lesson that I can never forget: "I was not the best cuisine in the city, but I am convinced that my whole day has been prepared, I worked harder than the competition, and my customers can taste this difference. . "

Share an interesting fact about yourself that many people do not know.
Richard Fong: I've played salsa and cubs for about 10 years. I played on stage with dance teams in Salsa festivals in Las Vegas and Los Angeles.

I got to know my wife by dancing, the passions that change my life. We do not dance because we have a son, but we do some childhood work in our family room after dinner.

How did your business start?
Richard Fong: I worked as a financial analyst at the bank after college. It was a good job and I was allowed to travel across the country. But I always wanted to be an entrepreneur, so I learned internet marketing and finally earned enough as an affiliate marketer to quit my work.

When I helped a friend with my SEO site, he watched more online stores in three months compared to last year. When I realized that I helped the entrepreneurs to make unsuccessful companies as traffic and transformers as collaborators. Now I can use my power and I am very supportive of creating and developing systems that change lives for entrepreneurs.

What is your favorite price?
Richard Fong: Bruce Lee once said that "a successful warrior is the average person who focuses on the laser." It's true in my life. If I concentrate on a specific result and focus, then it is much faster than I guess. When I have many projects, I feel disturbed and tense.

Gary Keller and Joe Pappen, this favorite book "The One Thing" is included. The book asks: What can you do to make things simple or unnecessary?

What was your biggest challenge? How did you cross it?
Richard Fong: Like most companies, I rely on the word of mouth and networking. Ultimately the leads from the Internet were found, but it was usually a small offer. I want to grow my business quickly and want to get bigger customers.

Jim Rohan once said, "I wish it would not be easy, I wish it was better." I knew that if I want to change things, then I have to get to the level. If I do what I do, I continue to get the same result. When I started learning about sales and prospecting, I took two years to get good. I still feel like a student, but I know how to control a big deal rather than wait for something to happen.
