FUTURE OF SELLING · JASON LIM
What if the next deck made the decision easier, instead of only looking expensive? Imagine headlines that already say the point, and slides with enough air that a Hong Kong room can follow. Even if the current file is crowded, you can still turn it into something a reader can finish. It's like clearing a cluttered desk so the one paper that matters sits on top.

Since 2016, his events have reached 100,000+ founders across Asia.
Closed $7M+ in deals by 24 and rebuilt from zero twice.
20+ years of coaching, starting with basketball at 16.
Our graduates have produced 8-figure results and beyond.
The $7M+ came from rooms that had to choose, so design work is judged by whether the file helps a decision, not by how busy it looks.
He has coached since 16, and the habit is the same: strip the extra moves until the play is obvious.
The method has produced 8-figure results for its graduates. Two of their stories are on this page.
Chet Holmes and Bob Proctor are two of them. The full list follows in his story below.
P.I.T.C.H. decides the story first, then the layout, so a Hong Kong reader can get the point from the headline alone.
The headline and the claim are fixed first; layout comes after, so decoration never outruns the argument.
The work is on the deck you must use next, so the new design is the one that goes into the room.
The presentation design in Singapore method: we rebuild the story with you, not as a design shop.
You start from the decision the Hong Kong room has to make, then cut anything that does not serve it.
Power, Intent, Teach, Close and Habits become the order of the slides, with headlines that can stand alone.
You rebuild the file with your brand, then check it as a silent read, not only as a speaking aid.
“Honestly, just five minutes with him is worth not hundreds, not thousands—but thousands upon thousands.”
Vũ Ngọc Hoa, CEO, Enlightenment Education.
“Jason pointed out an event that I can partner with. But, crafting a collaboration email is not exactly my strength.”
“using the research I did with Jason, I crafted a well-written email in 5 minutes!”
Wee Jun Wei, Managing Director, Lara-J. Programmes attended: Diamond Consult, Facebook Ads Mastery.

Jason Lim is the founder of DreaMaker Ventures and of Future of Selling, its flagship program. The work is for founders who need to pitch, present, negotiate and close. At 16, he started teaching, as a basketball coach. He started in sales at 21. He closed over $7 million in deals.
Since 2016, founders across Asia have learned from him. After he lost everything in 2020, he used the same skills he now coaches to rebuild his own life. In 2017, he served as President of Young Leaders Achievers Academy. He went on to learn from renowned mentors: Marshall Thurber (creator of Money & You®), Joel Bauer, Tony Robbins, Chet Holmes and Bob Proctor. Founders and leaders from Skystone Asset Management, Signarama Singapore, Enlightenment Education, Mindreader AI and 8Yolk Design Studio have trained with him.
The typography is tidy, and nobody can say the recommendation out loud.
There is no hierarchy, so a reader does not know where to look first.
You keep the colours and lose the point.
Time buyers spend with suppliers
17%
When B2B buyers are considering a purchase, they spend only 17% of that time meeting with potential suppliers. When they compare several suppliers, the time with any one sales rep may be only 5% to 6%.
Most buyers prefer to research on their own, so presentation design has to work as a read, not only as a backdrop for a talk.
The file looks newer, and still does not decide anything.
The decoration grows, and the headline gets weaker.
You adjust layout instead of fixing the claim the slide is supposed to make.
If the headline does not carry the point, the design was only decoration.
Design work often starts with decoration, so the argument stays buried under boxes and charts. Pretty files still confuse a deciding room. It's like wrapping a gift so tightly that nobody can open it.
Suppliers get a small share of buying time — 17%. The layout should make the point visible at a glance, not after a long spoken tour.
Buyers still want to know whether something fits. The headline should say so, instead of waiting for a later section.
