LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 31 Sales Preparation
When it was dinner time, Fang Bai closed the door and went to the old restaurant with his father to order food.
"Son, can't Tingting come over after school?" Fang Shi sat down at the dining table and poured himself and his son a cup of tea.
Fang Bai replied: "Dad, just look at her. She probably hasn't been out in the past two days."
Sometimes he is too busy to have dinner, and his sister is waiting, so she probably doesn't want to affect his work, so she goes out less often.
After dinner, the father and son returned to the rental house. Fang Shi said, "It's too expensive to eat out every day. There is a kitchen in the rented house. Just buy some food and cook it yourself."
"It doesn't cost much. We have a busy day and we don't have time to cook."
"There will be more people tomorrow. It's hard to eat in a restaurant for less than ten yuan. It only costs a few yuan to buy food and cook."
"The food you cook may not be in line with everyone's appetite. The food cooked by that restaurant is not bad and the price is moderate." Fang Bai explained that he understood that his parents wanted to save money, "Dad, you should get used to it slowly. In the future, if there are dozens of As for Mr. No., it’s impossible for him to cook his own meals. He must hire a chef or eat at a small restaurant outside.”
"That's up to you."
After eating, the father and son took a walk on the street for a while before returning to the rental house.
After Fang Bai returned to the bedroom and sat down, he considered how to sell the TV.
He planned to sell televisions at a stall and found several problems to be solved.
First, when customers buy second-hand TVs, they must be worried about the warranty period. What if they break down within a few days of buying them back?
Fang Bai doesn't have a real physical store, so he uses the store he currently rents as a repair shop?
That definitely won’t work!
When the customer took a look, he found that the TV he bought was completely assembled from foreign garbage! Refurbished goods!
Most likely it will be a return or refund.
Therefore, his store must be closed at ordinary times and only open a small door. Not many people know that he is assembling electronic waste here.
The second point is that when you find a place to set up a street stall, you definitely have to run wires and borrow electricity. This is a bit troublesome, but it can be solved easily.
The third point is that there is no packaging carton to put the TV in. It is too late now. I will wait for more funds to place an order with the carton factory.
The fourth point is to transport the TV. You have to buy a tricycle or rent a car for transportation.
After buying a TV, the customer must worry about transporting the TV. Will it be delivered to their door and installed?
It seems that this has nothing to do with Fang Bai.
When buying a TV these days, how can it be delivered to your door?
Fang Bai patted his head and realized that door-to-door delivery was really unnecessary.
Of course, if it can be delivered to your door, the sales will probably be better, but there are no conditions. Customers can spend some money to hire a tricycle to move it back, and they probably don't have to worry about the TV not being able to reach their home.
There were still some detailed issues that Fang Bai had to solve. He communicated with his father and let him know that after all, his father was in front-line sales.
Fang Bai likes to plan and arrange things in advance, and consider some hidden dangers and problems in advance, so that he can better avoid risks and avoid unexpected situations, so that he will not panic when the time comes.
"Dad, if the sales at the street stall are not good, we can only try to open a store to sell."
"Well, just look at the arrangements. Dad doesn't know much about this."
Fang Shi saw his son interviewing and recruiting people and arranging things in an orderly manner. This was something he couldn't do on his own, so he simply didn't respond. He just became a listener and just worked.
It's okay to brag in normal times, but when it comes to a family's development issues, he doesn't dare to do anything wrong.
The next morning,
The part-time students came to the store on time to repair the TV. Six people came today. Fang Bai asked them to disassemble the back cover of the TV first, and then he drew the problem and asked them to repair it.
These part-time students were all interviewed by Fang Bai, and they had certain electrician foundation and hands-on ability. Fang Bai probably said that they would know how to do it.
It only took Fang Bai some time to arrange the tasks. Then he took the time to read in the next room. Employees could call him if they had any questions.
Fang Bai arranged for his father to go to the nearby area to investigate where a street stall was suitable, and by the way, he bought back the tools needed to set up a street stall.
On that day, six part-time maintenance workers repaired and cleaned 21 TVs.
On the first day of work, the efficiency was a little lower.
Fang Bai's requirement is to repair and clean 5 TVs per person per day, and 21 TVs were built on the first day, barely meeting his requirement.
He wants to test sales in Oubei first and digest the purchasing potential of residents here.
The plan is good, but it cannot keep up with changes.
In the evening, Fang Shi came back from outside and reported to his son: "Son, the largest flow of people is outside the bus terminal. Nearby is the passenger terminal. There are too many people coming and going every day."
The bus terminal is only three to four hundred meters away from their store. Turn a corner at the intersection of their street and walk south for a hundred or two hundred meters. Then walk straight south for a few dozen meters to reach the passenger terminal.
There is a street near the bus terminal, which is the main road to and from the city. Passers-by come and go. There are many vendors setting up stalls there. Of course Fang Bai knows the location. When he returns to Oubei from the city, he takes a ferry across the river from the passenger terminal. .
People who commute to Yongjia County and the urban area every day have relatively good economic conditions and have purchasing potential.
The only bad thing is that everyone is in a hurry in the morning and has no desire to buy. It is impossible to sell them in the morning. It is better to put them near the vegetable market.
But the advantage is that the flow of people is large, and most people are free when returning in the afternoon. It is mainly targeted at people traveling to and from the city, rather than people rushing to the bus station.
If you want to set up a stall, you should set it on the main road. Only fools would sell TVs at the gate of the bus station.
As long as you do a good job of publicity and promotion and stimulate passers-by's desire to buy, there will always be people who buy it.
Nowadays, stalls don’t need to pay attention to urban management, they just need to pay more attention to petty theft.
The public security environment in Wencheng is pretty good. If he were to change places, Fang Bai would be really afraid that gangsters and gangsters would cause trouble.
After Fang Bai thought about it, he said to his father: "Dad, let's decide on that place. We will set up a stall there after lunch tomorrow. It's just a little troublesome to find a place to pull the wires."
Let's buy a tricycle, it will be easier to haul goods. "
"Okay then, I'll go buy it tomorrow and you can read at home."
"Well, buy it and go to one of those auto repair shops to modify it so that you can carry more goods." Fang Bai took out his backpack and took out a thousand yuan from it and gave it to his father.
It doesn’t cost that much money to buy a tricycle. It’s enough to prepare more for my father. There are too many places where I need to spend money.
Fang Shi took the stack of ten-yuan notes and felt heavy. He hoped that his son's business would be a success and the money would be recovered as soon as possible.
The next morning, Fang Shifeng went out to do errands.
At around nine o'clock in the morning, the two girls in charge of sales arrived, and Fang Bai gave them some instructions.
In addition to the two of them, there are two students who are responsible for looking after the venue and moving the TV.
These two boys are relatively rugged in appearance, and from the looks of things, most gangsters would not dare to mess with them.
Being able to be a doorkeeper and move goods is a perfect fit.
Use money to pave the way and hope everything goes smoothly and without trouble.
This is Fang Bai's idea. Spend more money, make more friends who can help you, and get into less trouble, but don't be afraid of trouble.
After he marked the TVs that needed to be repaired today, he went out on his bike. He wanted to inspect the site so that he could feel confident.
After a while, I arrived at the pier and saw the rippling water of the Oujiang River not far away, with a faint sound of waves.
On the river, ships came and went, the ships were piled with goods, and the spaces between the bow and stern were filled with people traveling to and from both sides of the river.
People were coming and going on the dock, and goods were piled up.
Workers in shabby clothes and shoes carried poles to carry goods. Their vests were soaked with sweat. They were busy and had firm eyes. They occasionally shouted to encourage themselves.
The scene at the dock made Fang Bai feel the vitality and vitality of this era. He came to this era, hit the waves, and also wanted to make a career.
I want to have a more comfortable life for myself and my family, and I also want to make some contribution to this country.
After watching for a while, Fang Bai turned back on his bike and came to the street near the bus terminal.
He walked around the neighborhood and found a lot of open space suitable for setting up street stalls.
There was a nice open space in front of a small restaurant. Fang Bai went directly to the boss to discuss it. He would send out cigarettes to chat first to reduce the hostility of the other party, and then get down to business.
After a few minutes, Fang Bai and the restaurant owner discussed it.
Fang Bai said that the electricity bill for pulling wires from his store is five yuan a day, which includes renting the open space in front of the store. It does not affect his business, and it can also attract customers and increase his reputation.
If the other party is a businessman, you must communicate with him as a businessman, and you must not let the other party suffer.
