That’s when i knew that he is different from other leaders, who cares about the well-being of his associates.
I know that I am in good hands under his guidance and very lucky to have him as my mentor. Jerry is very patient and nurturing, an educator at heart. He take time off his busy schedule to conduct training sessions with us and ad-hoc video calls whenever I needed help.
He’s always ready to respond to my questions even late at night. Even though my journey have just started, I’m already looking forward to reach greater heights with Jerry and the team. | | | | Hon Van (Accountant, Penta-Chem Services) We first knew Jerry and his team from 2018, they are not only our insurance advisor but also became our friends.
When we have any questions or need any help from them, they will respond to us very quickly, answering all our queries. At the first meetup, my husband and I trust him because of his expertise, his patience and his friendly nature. When any friend ask me about any insurance agent, I am very confident to introduce them to Jerry and his team.
Thank you Jerry and your team for everything. :) | | | | Darryl Lim (SIM undergraduate and advisor to be) Jerry has been my family’s trusted financial planner for many years.
This all began when he aided my parents with their motor insurance.
Unnecessary insurance costs were cut and it helped in the growth of my family business.
Jerry, caring and knowledgeable, would always respond swiftly to the needs of my family.
It is unfortunate that my family had to made a few claims over the years. However, with Jerry’s meticulous financial planning, all claims thus far were successful and it has greatly brought peace of mind to my family.
Further, with proper financial planning that Jerry has provided, my parents will be able to retire with a comfortable sum of money for them to enjoy retirement to its fullest.
These have showed me the works of comprehensive financial planning and how it aids in bringing peace to the affected individual and family members.
Being a people’s person, this showed me how I materialize the empathy I have for others through this career. | | | | Nady Yang (SUSS undergraduate) It was a fruitful session with Jerry! It was eyeopening as it was my first time meeting a financial advisor and I didn’t know what to expect. But he patiently shared and educated me all the plans and the possible financial paths and decisions I can make now for the future.
Jerry also made the policies' jargons easy to absorb and I think I now have a clearer view of the steps I should take to reach my goals.
Overall, I look forward to learning more from him. Jerry, you again for taking out your time for this session 😆 | | | | Pearl Lim (AIA MDRT qualifer) I became a mother in 2012 and i made many new mummy friends through Facebook. At that time i was looking for an insurance agent to get some plans for my newborn.
That was when I was introduced to Jerry in 2013 by one of the mummies, Irene.
I got some plans for my son, followed by myself and my other family members as we feel that Jerry is a very knowledgeable and responsible person.
Even though he is very busy with work, he would definitely meet in person to process claims or give financial advice.
At that time, I was a relationship manager handing corporate accounts in a bank. He asked if I was interested to become a financial planner and join him in his mission to save more lives and help people in financial planning. I rejected him straight away as I have insecurities about financial stability as a self employed.
It was after the birth of my second child that I started having problems striking a balance between family and work. Subsequently, I left my job at the bank and joined his team in early 2017.
Since then, I never looked back... even though my first 2 years were tough. I am enjoying my job now!
Jerry continues to handle some of my insurance plans, hence, he is now my planner, my friend, my mentor and also my boss. He gives me a lot of freedom in the way I run my business and he will review my performance regularly and update me on my progress for various campaigns and awards and motivate me to achieve more.
Because of his constant support in this career, I am thankful that I was able to achieve MDRT this year despite the pandemic situation. | | | | Hong Yang (Year 6 AIA FSC) Ever since I joined Jerry back then in Oct 2017, he has always been a role model that I looked up to in all aspect. Other than being a leader and a father of 3 girls, he is in the Product Committee & ALMA. On top of all these, he is also a producer in AIA. Despite having to handle so many things, he never once turned down his mentees and FSCs that approached him for help. Instead of spoon-feeding his consultants with direct answer, he would guide the consultants by giving them “homework” to do then learn from it. With all the stuffs that he is currently taking on, I am really in awe with his time management, self discipline and mental strength. To me, Jerry defines “Extraordinary”.
“The difference between Ordinary & Extraordinary is that little extra.” | | | | |
