Ken Ong
Common people get inspired by stories of people who climbed the ladder of success despite all the challenges life threw at them. One such person is entrepreneur Ken Ong who didn't give up despite reaching the lowest phase of his life. In fact, he decided to focus on his goals and ambitions and change his heart-breaking reality to something better.
During his early 20s, Ken Ong was homeless after his family sold off the house due to his father's gambling debt. It became worse when his parents divorced, and Ken was all by himself, living at his University hostel. But his outlook towards life changed when he volunteered at a YMCA camp and got inspired by persons with disabilities (PWDs). Ken decided that instead of complaining, he wanted to work hard and create the best future for himself.
From 2014 till now, Ken Ong has put in all his efforts to grow professionally and financially. From conducting soap making workshops to helping big brands and VIPs with his digital marketing agency, Ken has come a long way in his career. He is the co-founder of WECOFA (We Create Opportunites For All), a successful digital marketing agency since 2018. Ken and his business partner Davis Koh work every day to positively impact people with their work.
Ken Ong is a happy and successful person now. He is glad that he didn't stay upset when the situation wasn't in his favour back then. Today, he enjoys his business and loves his life. When asked what excites him most about his business, Ken says, "One of the things that excites me is being able to help many small medium enterprises with their digital marketing strategies and generating qualified results. This gives me and my team huge satisfaction knowing that what we are offering is a good product-market fit and it is able to seriously help these businesses, especially during these difficult times."
Entrepreneur Ken Ong is a known name in the digital business today. But he doesn't want to stop here. He wants to keep working and venture into other fields of interest as he believes the only way to lead a happy life is to explore new things and break new boundaries.
The entrepreneur adds that his business plays a key role in helping the vulnerable community and persons with disabilities to upskill and improve their chances of finding a job, making them more employable. He reveals that this is also one of the crucial reasons why he started the business with Davis.
