Yasmin Kong

Entrepreneur, Travel Business Coach & Property Investor

Meet Yasmin...

With 22 years of entrepreneurial experience, I have explored numerous business ventures—some successful, others not. Each setback has been a lesson, and every success has reinforced my belief in persistence, adaptability, and hard work.


In 2022, I ventured into the property sector alongside my husband and other partners. We specialize in providing comfortable and affordable serviced accommodations for contractors, generating passive income.

Last year, we reached another milestone by acquiring our first 9-bedroom HMO, a joint venture with my husband, sister, and her husband.

Beyond property, I also run an exciting travel business, earning an additional income stream by booking holidays and helping others launch their own travel franchises, creating long-term residual income.
Balancing business with family has been one of the toughest challenges—working with loved ones comes with its own conflicts, and juggling work with family time is never easy.

But when you start seeing real results, it makes all the struggles worthwhile.


Come and hear my journey—the successes, the failures, and the lessons learned along the way.

Join me and my team as we share how you, too, can create multiple income streams and achieve financial freedom.
