"If You Can Sell Insurance, You Can Sell Anything" - BilaBila Mart | Hello Mentor Full Episode14 Jul1 h 27 min

In this highly inspiring episode of Hello Mentor, we sit down with Jing, the co-founder and CEO of BilaBila Mart, Malaysia's fastest-growing convenience grocer. Jing opens up about her turbulent childhood, marked by financial instability and family trauma, which forced her to grow up fast and start working at just 15 years old for RM4 an hour. We dive deep into her winding career path from the corporate tobacco industry to selling insurance and the jaw-dropping moment a former business partner told her to "just ask your husband to feed you," prompting her to walk away and build her own retail empire instead. Launching BilaBila Mart just two days before the 2020 MCO lockdown, Jing shares the brutal realities of pivoting to a grocery model to survive, why she believes childhood trauma fueled her ultimate "survival instinct", and how she successfully scaled an unapologetically homegrown, hyper-local convenience chain to nearly 130 stores across the country. 🎙️ Watch the full episode on Hello Mentor to hear the full story (Link in Bio) Follow us on Social Media: XiaoHongShu: https://shorturl.at/uVBZO Instagram: https://shorturl.at/hT6wQ TikTok (Hiredly): https://shorturl.at/0gum2 TikTok (Grow With Hiredly): https://shorturl.at/gAObT Dou Yin: https://v.douyin.com/uQlXc4X0vaY/0@9.com 🎧 Listen and follow Hello Mentor!:http://hiredly.com/hellomentor
