Chapter 261 Understanding the Customer's Most Urgent Needs...

"Impossible!" The woman's voice rose a few decibels. How could there be a unified retail price nationwide?

Who would want something so expensive?

"Auntie, if you think it's too expensive, you can choose a cheaper option."

"I can't speak for other things, but we have clearly stated prices for fans of this size, so there's no need for us to try to mislead you," the male salesperson patiently explained.

The largest floor fan costs 1200 yuan, but now many outside sell for around 1400 yuan.

The sales staff here are all trained and won't talk nonsense.

Moreover, they need to know the retail prices of various appliance brands every day.

Otherwise, the salesperson wouldn't have had the confidence to say such a thing.

"I want this one. Don't you negotiate prices here? Isn't the point of doing business to bargain?"

"Where do you sell things at a fixed price?" The aunt touched the largest fan, her eyes filled with greed.

Of course she knew she couldn't buy such a large size at that price.

But she only had so much money. If she wanted her son to get married in a decent manner, she had to swallow her pride and go to Hairun Electrical Appliances City to bargain.

Everyone outside says that prices are clearly marked here, but she doesn't believe it.

In business, you have to be flexible; there's no reason not to haggle.

"If you can't make the decision, call the boss out. I don't believe there's no reason to talk to him." The woman made up her mind, pulled up a chair next to her and sat down, her eyes still fixed on the electric fan.

The male sales clerk's smile froze. "Auntie, how about this? We offer free eggs and rice with purchases over a certain amount. Why don't you also take a look at radios, TVs, or something, and buy them together to reach the minimum purchase amount for the promotion?"

Upon hearing this, the aunt's eyes lit up instantly.

This is the only place in Fukushi that sells imported electrical appliances; even the city's appliance stores source their goods from here.

She figured that if she bought it here, she could at least get a wholesale price.

Now that I hear they're giving away rice and eggs, I feel even more that I made the right choice.

But she only had 1,500 yuan in her pocket, which was a little short of enough to buy all the appliances.

She definitely wants to buy a TV, and she also wants to buy an electric fan and a radio.

She just went around and bought everything, but she didn't have enough money.

Everyone in their family has a fixed salary, so they should be considered to have some savings.

My son's wife works at a bank, so there will be another person receiving a salary.

But with her hard-earned savings, she still had to haggle over the prices of the few appliances she didn't buy.

"Xiao Chen, what's going on?"

The woman was making plans in her mind when she heard the sound, looked up and saw two women. The joy that had just risen in her eyes vanished instantly.

"Sister Fang, this aunt has some objections to the price." The male salesman spoke respectfully, his back straight.

Mu Fang is in charge of training them, and now the sales staff in the store dare not slack off when they see her.

The wages are high and the benefits are good. When work is not busy, you can sit and rest without being exposed to the wind and sun. There is also a subsidy in the summer.

They all thought that if they left here, they certainly wouldn't get such good treatment elsewhere.

"Auntie, are you looking to buy appliances for your wedding?" Lin Ziyan stepped forward and asked with a smile.

As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face.

The older woman had intended to make a scene, but seeing her reaction, she simply spoke her mind.

"Young lady, judging from your clothes, you don't seem like a sales clerk here. Are you here for electronics too?"

"Let me tell you, the salesperson just said that they give you a free gift if you spend a certain amount..."

After listening to her, Lin Ziyan nodded, her brows furrowed as if she was thinking about something.

Mu Fang and the male sales clerk exchanged a glance and then remained silent.

They had never seen Lin Ziyan sell anything before, so they wanted to take a look.

"Auntie just wants to have a decent wedding, and her future daughter-in-law..." The aunt seemed to have found someone to confide in and explained the situation.

Of course, she didn't reveal anything about her family members' work or anything like that.

"Xiao Chen, you should learn from this," Sister Fang whispered, telling him to watch carefully.

After hearing her request, Lin Ziyan pursed her lips, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

Seeing her like this, the older woman asked, "Young lady, do you have some ideas?"

She couldn't talk to her two sons at home, and her husband would just eat and sleep after work, too lazy to listen to her nagging.

Now that I've finally found someone to discuss this with, I'm eager to ask.

Lin Ziyan roughly knew what she wanted to buy. "We need a big TV, and the fan is for the two of us, so we can get a smaller one. The radio should be reasonably priced, as long as it makes a sound. All things considered, 1500 yuan should be enough."

The woman's eyes lit up instantly; she happened to have 1,500 yuan in her pocket.

Next, Lin Ziyan first took her to see a television, and then they went back to buy an electric fan and a radio.

After buying everything, it came to exactly 1500 yuan.

The aunt was overjoyed and thanked Lin Ziyan profusely.

After she left her address and received the invoice, she said, "Young man, buying things from you is really affordable. I'll definitely recommend you when I get back."

She turned to Lin Ziyan and spoke even more enthusiastically.

"Little sister, I'm going back now. I live in the power supply bureau's staff quarters. Please feel free to drop by next time you're in the area."

After she finished speaking, she went out with a big smile on her face, carrying her shopping basket.

Xiao Chen was dumbfounded. That was it?

Is this how you sell things?

"You see, we understand the customers' most pressing needs, and then choose the most suitable sales approach..." Mu Fang took the opportunity to give them a pep talk.

"Now you know why I asked you to memorize the prices of all categories, right?" Sister Fang continued.

Xiao Chen nodded vigorously. This order was worth 1,850 yuan, and he could take a cut of 37 yuan, which was half a month's wages for the worker.

When signing the contract, Lin Ziyan directly asked him to come over and issue the invoice, which would be recorded in his personal retail performance.

The other sales staff were envious, but more than that, they were excited.

They became even more determined to study hard, work diligently to sell appliances, and earn commissions.

Everyone's enthusiasm was immediately aroused.

As the weather gets hotter, various food shops have started buying ice.

When Lin Ziyan and Sister Fang arrived at Aunt Wang's shop, she was having workers move ice blocks into the warehouse.

When the electronics store opened, Aunt Wang bought a freezer, which is now coming in handy.

"Ayan, what do you want to eat? Auntie will have Chef Li cook it right away." Aunt Wang saw them and hurried over, her smile genuine.

As the weather outside grew hotter and hotter, she became anxious and thought about buying another freezer.

She bought the freezer during the opening promotion last time, and it came with a lot of freebies, which are very useful.

"We don't eat stir-fries, we just want your signature seafood congee in a clay pot," Lin Ziyan said with a smile.

She glanced around, got up, walked to the side, poured two cups of tea, and placed one in front of Sister Fang.

Mu Fang smiled and said, "You should go to the electronics store more often and let them see how to sell things."

"However, I really didn't expect your sales skills to be so proficient."

Lin Ziyan quickly waved her hand. She didn't know anything about sales techniques; she had only learned a few basic things from working as a sales clerk in her father's shop.

"Don't flatter me, or I'll become arrogant. I'll just be showing off my limited skills in front of you."
