FUTURE OF SELLING · JASON LIM
Storytelling Coaching in Shanghai for Founders and Sales Leaders
What if the buyer or the hall could retell your story accurately to someone who was not there? Imagine a business story with a clear turn, and a close that is more than a list of features. Even if your work is technical and you have always led with facts, you can still make those facts travel. It's like turning a shipping manifest into a story people retell after they leave the dock.

Don't let the next Shanghai room leave with a list instead of a story

"I built this because I failed," Jason Lim has said. "I let my family down." He made a vow: "if I could rise again, I'd teach others how to win without losing everything that matters." A financial scam had already taken his family's savings. In 2020, he lost what he himself had built.
Future of Selling exists to keep that promise, and P.I.T.C.H. is the method inside it. He is the founder of DreaMaker Ventures as well. Basketball coaching at 16 came first, and he later closed over $7 million in deals. Renowned mentors guided him: Marshall Thurber (creator of Money & You®), Joel Bauer, Tony Robbins, Chet Holmes and Bob Proctor. Among his clients are founders and leaders from Skystone Asset Management, Signarama Singapore, Enlightenment Education, Mindreader AI and 8Yolk Design Studio.
Are you facing this right now?
You start at the beginning of the company.
The audience needed the turn — what changed, and why it matters now — and they got a timeline.
Every fact feels important.
The story has no shape, and a listener cannot tell which line to keep.
The close is a summary of features.
There is no ask, and no line a champion can take upstairs.
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%.
What happens if this continues?
The story has to survive after you leave.
Most buyers prefer to research on their own first, so a story that is only a list is hard to take any further.
Stories that only work if you are there to tell them.
Meetings end with interest, and the internal retelling sounds like a product sheet.
A chronology instead of a turn.
You add more anecdotes and still cannot find the one story the room should keep.
It follows you home.
Evenings go to another draft that is longer, not clearer.
Then the champion cannot retell it.
A Shanghai committee often decides after you leave, and only a clear story survives that retelling.
Why do Stories that only work if you are there to tell them and a chronology instead of a turn keep repeating and never go away?
Most business storytelling advice starts with being more personal, or with more anecdotes. A useful story has a turn and a job: it helps someone else decide or explain. When that job is missing, stories become decoration. It's like packing a display window with every item in the warehouse.
How Future of Selling can help
Make the story travel without you.
A lot of the decision happens in a retelling. The story has to work in someone else's mouth.
Help the listener judge fit from the turn.
Buyers still want a view on whether an offer fits. A useful story makes that judgement possible after you leave.
Tell a story a new enterprise can repeat.
New foreign-invested enterprises established in China in 2025, 19.1% more than in 2024. The work is to build a story those organisations can take internally.
Give Shanghai rooms a story that survives the corridor.
New foreign-invested enterprises established in Shanghai in 2025, 6.8% more than in 2024. The work is to leave a line a champion can retell upstairs.
