What makes Kent Ong stand out among the many competitors there are in the market today is this – his focus is on helping his clients develop a relationship with the end-users and potential customers.
He has mastered the art of online promotion by digging his hands into the dirt which is to sell on eBay and that's when he started learning how to promote his own services and products. This was nearly a decade ago when people only began to realize how important the internet was going to be. But he did it the conventional way – sell, sell, sell and then sell some more. It was push marketing through and through and it didn't last. After a year of that, the sales started to drop as more competitors emerged out of the every corner of the planet. Everyone, with the internet, has fair chance, fair game.
He knew he had to do something different to get back that edge that he had and deftly dived into research. It was then that he discovered that in order to be a level above all the competition, he needed to start building relationships with his customers and potential customers. That is when he started doing exceptionally well on eBay...better than ever before.
His expertise was intriguing, hence, he found himself being interviewed by Malaysia's top dailies like The Star, The News Straits Times, PC.com and eBay Malaysia.
