Chapter 161 Dare to Bet?

Everyone held their breath and pricked up their ears, looking at An Zhixia eagerly.

An Zhixia smiled, looked at Director Huang and said, "Let our director report to everyone," then she walked down from the podium and handed the loudspeaker to him.

Director Huang stood up straight, took the loudspeaker, bowed to everyone with a little excitement, then took the note the cashier stuffed into his hand and said, "Our Dongfeng Shili Supply and Marketing Cooperative transferred seven full warehouses of goods from several neighboring brother units. In one day, the sales volume was 58,652 yuan! Cloth coupons..."

The people present had been dealing with money and goods for many years, and they could roughly estimate the sales of a warehouse. They all belonged to the same system, had the same supply channels, and the people had similar preferences, so the quantity and types of goods in the warehouse would not differ too much. A full warehouse was worth about 5,000, and the seven warehouses were worth about 35,000. The selling price was 20% to 60% higher than the cost price.

So, everyone looked at the numbers on the paper in disbelief, so the Dongfeng Shili Supply and Marketing Cooperative made a profit of about 23,000 yuan a day! ! ! This did not include the various bills that could be used to pay for money.

What a concept, it was almost their quarterly turnover, and it was a standard that could only be achieved during the peak season. They did it in one day, just by using big guys to promote the hard-to-promote goods in the warehouse. Thinking of the ignorant ridicule and arrogance of their group just now, they were all embarrassed and ashamed.

The president and the district director could not help but stand up and applaud vigorously. If this promotion method was effective, would they still have to worry about the funds being held back not being able to flow back? Everyone also stood up and applauded excitedly.

After everyone calmed down and sat down again, An Zhixia said calmly: "From this event, we can see that the people in our country are actually quite good at living and are very simple.

As long as we use the right methods, we are not afraid of the increasing impact of several large shopping malls on supply and marketing cooperatives. After all, supply and marketing cooperatives and shopping malls have different positioning. One is mid-to-high-end, and the other is close to the people. Each has its own advantages.

But the attitude of our comrades in the supply and marketing cooperative is not correct enough," she paused and said seriously, "We are a state-owned enterprise, and the country has given us a stable job, not for us to chat, eat melon seeds, read newspapers, knit sweaters, and doze off at work every day!

The factory workers work like spinning tops every day and only get more than 30 yuan in salary for a month, while we can easily surpass them by just handing over the goods to the customers and quoting the price. How much of these wages should we take? Some of them are too expensive to take.

I have said a lot, and you may not be convinced, thinking that I am too inexperienced to comment. Then I will make a bet with you. All leaders should go back and train their employees, insisting on smiling at customers for a month, being friendly, actively asking customers about their needs, helping them make recommendations, and saying welcome to come again next time.

Let's meet again next month to see if your profits have changed significantly. If not, I am willing to take turns to write quotations for free for a day in your store as a promotion. If there is really an improvement, I hope everyone can keep it up.

Only when the service keeps up can we talk about development.

I wonder if you leaders dare to make a bet with me?"

Everyone looked at each other, and Director Ji stood up and said with a dull face, "Why should we not respond? Isn't it just to make our salesmen smile and say a few more words? I don't believe that the profit can be increased by much. Comrade, you must take good care of your hands, so that you don't have to refuse to pay the debt when the time comes."

Others also nodded in response. They had never seen the salespeople in the department store give customers a good look, but their products were still selling well. It can be seen that these small actions are insignificant. However, the promotion activities promised by An Zhixia made them excited, so they naturally wanted to take this sure-win bet.

Minister Li also spoke with great interest: "It just so happens that the president, the district director and I can serve as witnesses for you. Comrade Xiao An, your statement about a substantial increase in profits is a bit too general. In addition, Comrade Xiao An has made a bet and sacrificed. You leaders should not take advantage of Comrade Xiao An, and you should also show corresponding sincerity."

An Zhixia lowered her eyelids, thought for a moment and said, "How about 20%?"

Everyone was delighted and quickly gathered together to discuss for a while. Director Ji continued to speak on behalf of everyone: "Okay, but Comrade Xiao An cannot take any measures to increase sales. As long as our profit next month is more than 20% higher than this month, we are willing to give you half of the extra profit as a bonus!"

Their monthly profit is roughly between 4,000 and 6,000, and is relatively stable, except during holidays when there will be a significant increase, and accordingly the profit will decline slightly in the next month.

Comparing the months with declining profits with the peak months, isn't this Comrade Xiao An a little too conceited? However, if she can really turn the disadvantage around, then the share given up by the 23 supply and marketing cooperatives will be more than 100 yuan, which is equal to their two months' salary.

An Zhixia raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, but I have to be responsible for training the sales sisters." Seeing that everyone had no objection, she looked at the president and the district director and said, "President, director, if you want the sales sisters to cooperate, don't you have to give me some authority?"

"You tell us, let's listen," the president nodded with a smile.

"If the supply and marketing cooperative's profit increases by 20%, then this profit must be earned by the hard work of the saleswomen. Do you think it is possible to take out 20% of this extra profit as their bonus? Only when people are motivated can we generate higher income."

"Okay," the first and second in command discussed it. If you want a horse to run, you have to feed it more grass, not to mention people? The sales staff in the department store get high salaries because of bonuses. They also have to make some adjustments. As long as the sales volume is up, bonuses are not a problem!

After paying the money and coming out of the headquarters, it was already dark outside. A beam of light shone over and the person on the other side shouted, "Is An Zhixia here?"

"That's my brother!" An Zhixia said with a smile, saying hello to the people around him and trotting over. "Brother, why are you here? I came here with my colleagues and happened to pass by our house on the way back. Didn't I tell you?"

"I'm worried," An Zhiqiu flicked her forehead and said unhappily, "I only have one sister like you. How can I trust you to someone I've only known for two or three days?"

An Zhixia stuck out her tongue, and the two of them pushed the cart out. She told her brother in detail what happened at the headquarters, recreating almost everyone's expressions and words.
