He Wenlin finally breathed a sigh of relief after working non-stop until 2:30 p.m.
Opening a business is really tiring.
Just as she was relaxing, He Wenlin called her mother again to ask about the situation there.
"My business is alright, but not as good as the first and second stores," said Aunt He.
"That's definitely not comparable. These two stores are located in a shopping mall and next to a supermarket, so they have a certain amount of customer traffic every day."
How's business at the snack shop?
He Wenlin said, "It's alright for now, after all, it's a novel food and it's a holiday. We'll have to see how it goes later."
Many stores are very popular when they first open, but they gradually decline.
There are actually very few long-established stores in shopping malls; those that have been around for over ten years are usually located in the back alleys and streets.
He Wenlin hopes that this snack shop can become famous and attract more people to learn how to make it.
He Wenlin wants to earn tuition fees!
I had considered franchising before, but He Wenlin was too busy and simply couldn't manage it.
Therefore, it's much simpler and less risky to just charge tuition and provide training.
He Wenlin doesn't expect to make a fortune from this shop; her main purpose is to advertise and provide a training venue.
The sign outside the store says "Contact xx to learn the technology, phone number 13 *********".
Just then, He Hui arrived.
Pointing to the line of text below the display board: "Linlin, you're actually sharing your skills with others?"
"Yeah, so what? You want to learn?"
He Hui laughed and said, "I do have that idea. I bought some and tried it today. It tastes good and should be suitable for setting up a stall at the night market. I just don't know how you calculate the tuition fee?"
Today, the snack shop opened, and He Hui, He Ling, and Peng Liang all came to support it.
"Do you want to learn all of them, or just sizzling tofu and wolf-tooth potatoes? The tuition is 10,000 yuan if you learn all three, and 2,800 yuan if you only learn hot and sour noodles. The tuition for sizzling tofu and wolf-tooth potatoes together is 8,000 yuan, because my chili sauce is an all-purpose chili sauce, it's so fragrant." He Wenlin said, "But since we're on the same side, the tuition can be cheaper. It's 6,800 yuan if you learn all three, and I'll guarantee you'll learn them."
After saying that, He Wenlin took out a price list from her schoolbag and handed it to him: "This is the price for outsiders. You can take a look. It will definitely be the lowest price for you to learn here, but we have to keep it a secret. Others don't get this price."
Upon hearing the tuition fee of 6,800 yuan, He Hui and He Ling both gasped in shock.
This is really not cheap.
He Hui: "Six thousand eight is not a small amount; I need to think about it."
“Just contact my dad when you’ve made up your mind. That number above is his,” He Wenlin said. “Six thousand eight hundred yuan is indeed not cheap, but I plan to put up ads at bus stops to promote Xiangmeizi Hot and Sour Noodles, Wolf Tooth Potatoes, and Iron Plate Tofu. How many people will know about my shop then? How many people will know about hot and sour noodles and wolf tooth potatoes? Won’t the business be good once this shop opens?”
"You're still planning to advertise?" He Hui asked in shock. "Linlin, now that you say that, I'm afraid to. If everyone goes to learn from you and everyone sells this, I won't be able to do business. All those tuition fees will be wasted."
He Wenlin shook her head and said, "No, it's not like that. Think about it, if you were the first night market to open, wouldn't you be able to reap the first wave of benefits?"
And while you're afraid of others taking your business away, the same applies to others; once they open a shop, they'll try to avoid you.
Look at He Ling selling cakes at the night market. Others are envious and there are competitors, but from beginning to end, only she and one other person sell cakes at the night market. Why? Because they are also afraid of not being able to compete, and they are afraid that if three people sell cakes, they will not make much money.
Of course, doing business always involves risks, and no one can guarantee making money 100%.
He Wenlin has already contacted the advertising management department. According to Mr. Huang from the advertising department, the slots that He Wenlin wanted have already been taken by others. She either has to switch to another line or she can only buy slots for the next quarter.
He Wenlin plans to buy other lines first, and then buy the two most popular and busiest lines next quarter. The advertising investment is expected to be seventy to eighty thousand yuan.
He Hui went back to discuss it with his parents. His mother was managing his money, and there was nothing he could do about it. Last year, the family built a house and renovated it, which cost a lot of money, so he would definitely have to hand over his earnings.
Upon hearing that the tuition fee was 6,800 yuan, Li Jinfeng immediately disagreed.
"Six thousand eight hundred yuan for tuition, even after the discount, is outrageously expensive!" Li Jinfeng said. "Don't waste that money. It's fine as it is now. You're earning more than you would working, which is good. Don't be envious just because the old lady is earning more. What if you lose money?"
He Hui: "She charges even more for other people's services."
"That's expensive too. She takes on two apprentices a year, and they earn more than she does working a regular job."
"Hearing her say that, I feel like I can give it a try. There are definitely risks involved in doing business."
"She wants to make money, of course she'll say it nicely, six thousand eight hundred yuan, not six hundred and eighty." Li Jinfeng firmly disagreed, "It's good as it is now, better than working. The house is built now, you should get married soon, get married and have children, I'll take care of the children, you two can run the stall, isn't that good? Stop thinking about other things, get married soon, how are things going with that person at the night market lately..."
...
Whether He Hui learns or not, He Wenlin really doesn't care. She also knows in her heart that doing business with acquaintances is the most difficult.
Instead of He Hui, we received news from Peng Liang.
Today is May Day, and factories and schools are closed, so Peng Liang's second store is also closed. Knowing that He Wenlin's snack shop is opening, Peng Liang came to support her. He was also present when He Wenlin and He Hui were talking.
