“A Courageous Chief Leading His People Towards A Better Future”
Strong, wise and determined, Dato’ Dr. Darren Goh is a well-known entrepreneur among the direct selling elites throughout Malaysia and South-East Asia. Hailed from Perak, Dato’ Dr. Darren Goh was graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Education (Honours) from the University of Malaya. Started off working as a teacher early in his career prioritizing in educating the next generation, he soon realized that this career can help prepare young adults to face the working environment, but does not offer significant help in shaping them to achieve success. After going through multiple discussions with capable people in his circle, Dato’ Dr. Darren Goh realized the only answer to that dilemma is by guiding people to achieve success via the enterprise route. After finished assembling a team of talents on December 2000, this ambitious young man embarked on a new journey with the establishment of K-LINK International Sdn Bhd, which has become one of the leading companies in the direct selling industry.
As the managing director of the company, Dato’ Dr. Darren Goh does not distance himself and instead gets in touch with his employees regardless of their ranks, this is because he understands that in this modern time, a positive working environment which satisfy employees’ requirements equals greater productivity. “When people feel encouraged, accepted and happy, they become motivated and perform better. A director is like the chief who has to provide adequate necessities to his people in order for them to do their best for the prosperity of the nation.”
At the beginning, Dato’ Dr. Darren Goh set his goals through entrepreneurship, professionalism and branding at a global level. Under his leadership, K-LINK developed into an international company within 2 years. He was also one of the heroes, along with other K-LINK Directors, who has developed and promoted K-System, a sound training system in direct selling which has gained a huge recognition in the industry.
Although started off offering only a few products to its consumers, the company aligned itself to the right track by focusing on producing high quality products. During its maiden month, the company’s sales stood at a modest RM 700,000. However, in less than a year, its monthly sales record exceeded RM 10 million and continue to grow steadily. Today, the monthly global revenue of K-LINK International is estimated at more than RM 45 million with the number of active distributors reaching 1.3 million worldwide.
Besides having its headquarter in Kuala Lumpur, K-LINK International also has overseas corporate groups, Stockists and Master Stockists in more than 40 countries worldwide to support its expanding international markets such as Australia, Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Philippines, Poland, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam and many more, which solidified its stance as one of the leading direct selling companies in Asia.
As the managing director of the company, Dato’ Dr. Darren Goh does not distance himself and instead gets in touch with his employees regardless of their ranks, this is because he understands that in this modern time, a positive working environment which satisfy employees’ requirements equals greater productivity.
Explaining the main factor that contributes to the success of K-LINK International, Dato’ Dr. Darren Goh emphasizes on practicality over aesthetics. “Practicality exists in all our products, concept, marketing plan and development so that it can be widely accepted by the public. For instance, we have monthly meetings to discuss and conduct tests before launching any new products to the market”.
“In this ever-changing environment, different strategies are needed in order to provide suitable solutions to our consumers. Companies must adapt itself to different market trends and cultures in other countries as well.” Hence, Dato’ Dr. Darren Goh and his team would always study the local policies, consumer needs and spending behaviour before developing the market in a specific country, so as to develop a relevant marketing strategy that caters to the people of that country.
This indicates K-LINK International is a company that cares for the people. Its principle and philosophy of combining love, humanity and advanced technology in creating a strong people-centered enterprise is what sets it apart from other companies. This also allows them to expand their market globally.
In addition to that, K-LINK International also advocates “3I” culture to ensure continuous growth and business sustainability. Each policy and strategy taken by the company is “3I” oriented – Initiative, Informative and Innovative. “We believe a company must take initiative to create opportunity in the business environment so as to become a pioneer in the industry. Until today, there is no company that could sustain with only one or a few products. Our product range must be broadened to fulfill the needs of the consumers.”
This is the reason why K-LINK continues to improve and innovate despite already having stable consumer base and its own signature products. They believe to constantly bring in new and quality products from all around the world is the only way to strengthen their consumer loyalty as well as to expand existing markets.
However, mere innovation in marketing of products is not enough, as effective transmission of information using modern channels has become increasingly vital for a modern MLM company.
“The pace of technological change is getting faster, hence K-LINK actively develops its own digital marketing platform to keep us updated with the latest trends so that we can connect with our consumers.” These platforms includes Facebook and Instagram, as well as Mobile Web and e-commerce with intuitive and user-friendly interface, it will bring convenience to the consumers by simplifying their everyday purchases.
“Health is the new wealth. People from young and old are hopping on to the healthy lifestyle bandwagon. The recent popularity boom in marathons, green juice, athleisure clothing is the current trends that influence the spending of the public. K-LINK will continue to come out with quality and effective products which satisfy the current and future trends needs. We hope our concept of health and beauty can help people to achieve top notch physical and mental wellbeing.”
Now that the right talents, products and strategies grasped firmly in Dato’ Dr. Darren Goh’s hands, K-LINK will continue its course to realize their 5-year-plan. “We will try our best to launch more beneficial projects, help entrepreneurs to achieve even more success and become the top leader in the MLM industry.” To realize this vision, Dato’ Dr. Darren Goh continues to encourage his fellow team members to adopt positive habits in achieving success in the MLM business.
