gain ground: 获得一席之地

I began to gain ground. They were selling like hotcakes. (卖得火热)

We are now starting to see the flip side of the government's economic policy.
On the flip side, the holiday is also a big business.
(on the flip side: 另一面，反面)

I am really pumped about this opportunity. (为...很激动的)
I am pumped for you just thinking about the awesome stuff you can do.

An idea that resonates with many voters. (引起共鸣)
