MILESTONE Looking Back Through The Years of The National Achievers Congress (PART 1)
The National Achievers Congress will be celebrating our 21st year in 2013 and what an amazing journey it’s been.
21 years is a significant to celebrate our coming of age, a time to reflect on the years that led us to where we are today.
The CEO of Success Resources, Richard Tan believes in building a platform to bring the world’s best speakers, trainers and coaches into contact with the average person.
He believes that everyone – students, entrepreneurs, CEOs, housewives, exconvicts, people from all walks of life, of all income levels, living in bungalows or oneroom HDBs should have the same opportunities.
They simply need to do two things. Access to the tools, information, and education that the privileged in society have, and apply those resources to be successful. And that’s what the National Achievers Congress strives to do.
Richard first envisioned the seminar after his first attempt at entrepreneurship failed miserably.
He and his business partners marketed and sold a chemical product to treat floors to prevent people from slipping on them when they were wet.
While they were successful in their sales, selling about $600,000 worth of the product to Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand, and Indonesia. They encountered two problems.
First, the chemical didn’t prevent slipping and second, the chemical was corrosive and destroyed the floors of their customers.
In the ensuing lawsuits, Richard ended up in massive debt from refunding all the money he had made and repairing the floors of his customers. Continuation: Part 2
