Chapter 357 Preparation before opening
Lin Yuzhu only had time to go to the store to check on the situation at noon the next day.
When I arrived, Gu Weidong was already sorting the goods.
Lin Yuzhu was a little surprised when she saw that the entire second floor was almost full. "So many in the first batch? Have they all arrived?"
Gu Weidong still looked exhausted and tired. It was unknown whether he had rested last night, but his eyes were bright. He smiled and said, "Yes, the first batch has arrived. We can open the store after we sort it out."
Lin Yuzhu nodded, "Okay, but don't rush to open the business. I think it's better to get a business license before opening. The market is very chaotic now, and the government may make rectifications. It will be easier to get one and avoid trouble."
Gu Weidong knew that Lin Yuzhu worked at the Housing Authority and thought she knew some inside information, so he didn't worry about it too much.
"Okay, let's do one, but will it be troublesome? Because I need a small amount of goods, the electrical appliance factory was unwilling to sell it to me. It was only after my friend interceded for me and I promised to replenish the stock within half a month that they agreed.
My friend and I have also ordered the second batch of goods to be shipped in half a month at the latest. Don’t let us not open the store by then and then have no money to pay.”
Lin Yuzhu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've already given the instructions, just go and do it, it won't take more than three days."
Gu Weidong was relieved and glad to cooperate with Lin Yuzhu and his wife. Although they only contributed money and not effort, after all, one was a top student and the other was an official. Look, isn't this going to be useful?
Gu Weidong went to apply for a business license the next day. The person Lin Yuzhu found was her college classmate who studied by correspondence. The other party worked in a related unit. It was just a small matter, and the man agreed immediately after hearing it.
Because I knew someone, it went very quickly. I filled out the information the day before and got the business license the next day.
Gu Weidong gave the store a name and made a sign.
The next day after I got the business license, I listened to Lin Yuzhu and spent money on advertising in newspapers.
For this entrepreneurial venture, Gu Weidong risked everything. Not only did he quit his stable job, he also invited his good brother and his wife to be partners. Although he was certain that he would not lose money, he was still a little nervous when it came time to start selling.
Therefore, he paid great attention to the publicity. In addition to the newspapers as suggested by Lin Yuzhu, he also found someone to spread the news privately.
After listening to his plan, Lin Yuzhu asked him to go to the printing factory to print some flyers and then prepare some grand opening promotions. In this day and age, ordinary people love to take advantage of a bargain, so there is no need to worry about no one coming.
Gu Weidong is a man who listens to advice. He took action immediately after hearing this. This is when you can see the benefits of having connections.
Originally, the state-owned printing factory would not take such a small order, but fortunately he happened to know a director of the printing factory, so he asked him for help privately, and finally persuaded him to help print the order.
What followed was overwhelming publicity.
On her way to and from get off work, Lin Yuzhu saw people handing out flyers and discussing the campaign on the bus, which showed that the campaign was successful.
Of course, publicity in newspapers is also very important. After all, ordinary people in this era have a fixed impression that anything that can be published in newspapers must be good.
When they heard that another electrical appliance store was opening and that electrical appliances could be purchased without a ticket, everyone became even more interested.
Even when Lin Yuzhu arrived at the unit, some colleagues were still discussing this matter.
"I don't know if it's true or not? You really don't need a ticket to buy electrical appliances? Are they scammers? They're deliberately making some gimmick to trick us in."
