Jiang Wanyue took the account book and looked at it carefully.
Within one month of opening, the business sold a total of six bamboo bags, a set of tea sets, and a cool mat, earning a total of 21,200 yuan.
Because the counter is in a corner, the customers who come to inquire are basically those who come here because of its reputation... Because when Jiang Wanyue opened the shop, he asked Smith Mike's people to promote it in the foreign circle, so the customers who can be found here are those who really want to buy.
The transaction volume is over 20,000, which is already very high.
But the reception was low.
It's such a waste of Lin Jin's talent.
Jiang Wanyue said, "I will arrange for a new salesperson to come here tomorrow. You can take care of her. Once she is familiar with this place, you can go and manage the store."
Lin Jin nodded immediately.
There are too few customers in the Friendship Store, and it is really boring every day.
She can't wait to get to the store and work hard.
"I really envy you guys..." Sister Bai sighed, "I don't know when I can open this mask shop."
When we first opened, we sold at least three or four masks.
Now, after a whole month, no one has come to inquire about it, let alone sell it.
She planned to go back and advise the factory manager to cancel the Friendship Store counter...
"Sister Bai, I don't know if you've heard this before." Jiang Wanyue took a sip of tea and said, "As the saying goes, good wine needs no bush. Many traditional businessmen firmly believe in this saying and guard their products in the hope that people will see them. But unfortunately, they often can't hold on after guarding for a while, because having a good product is not enough. You have to find a way to let people see it. Only when customers see it will they become interested and have the urge to buy. Only then can you make money and make the factory go further."
Sister Bai frowned and said, "What you said makes sense, but it's too difficult to do."
Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "Sister Bai, have you ever thought about holding a show at the Friendship Store, inviting some traditional opera performers to sing and perform face-changing? I believe that this should make some foreigners interested in masks."
"Invite people to perform opera here?" Sister Bai couldn't believe it. "Only Chinese people like to watch opera. Foreigners simply can't understand it, right?"
Jiang Wanyue shook her head: "Cultural performances have no national boundaries, just like music, regardless of domestic or foreign. As long as the performance is good, foreigners will naturally like it. Sister Bai can give your factory manager some suggestions and give it a try. What if it succeeds? Right... What you sell is not just masks, it has a great significance in promoting our country's traditional culture."
Bai Jie's enthusiasm was immediately aroused: "Jiang Meizi, you are a young girl who can run the factory so prosperously, your opinions are naturally valuable, I will go back to the factory later and tell them about it... Oh no, I'd better go now, the factory will be closed later."
She stood up, cleaned up the counter, picked up her bag, and left in a hurry.
Lin Jin gave Jiang Wanyue a thumbs up and said, "You worry about the bamboo weaving factory and the processing factory every day, and you can also spare some time to give advice to the mask factory. I really admire you more and more."
Jiang Wanyue stood up and said, "You continue to work. I have to go to the train station to pick up Xiaoling."
Originally, the purpose of recruiting Ying Xiaoling was to train her to be a salesperson specializing in receiving foreigners, and to arrange her to work the counter at the Friendship Store.
But now, Ying Xiaoling has become a sales specialist who delivers goods to Guangcheng. Logically speaking, it would be better to give such a hard job to a male comrade, but there is no way. The level of English of the male comrade with the best English is about the same as Lin Jin. He can guard the counter, but going to such a far place to meet so many customers requires facing many unexpected situations, and only Ying Xiaoling's English level can cope with it.
Jiang Wanyue once again lamented that there were too few talented people.
Fortunately, Jiang Yuanyuan is here to help teach English, so we can train a group of bilingual salesmen as quickly as possible.
After arriving at the train station and waiting for about ten minutes, Ying Xiaoling and her group came out.
Every time we went to Guangcheng, we would arrange for an accountant and two salesmen to go with us, making a total of four people in a group.
"You all have worked hard." Jiang Wanyue took them to a state-owned restaurant for a meal, and then they took a truck back together.
On the way, Ying Xiaoling said excitedly: "Director, I went to Guangcheng Railway Station as you instructed and asked about the sales of our products. As expected, there is not enough to sell. I talked to their person in charge. Originally, it was only sold on one train, but now it has been increased to ten routes. Each train will supply 50,000 bags per month, for a total of 500,000 bags."
In this way, the monthly income of Guangcheng Railway Station alone can reach 100,000 yuan. After deducting costs and shares, the net profit is about 30,000 yuan.
If we want to build the road as soon as possible, this amount of income is far from enough.
Jiang Wanyue nodded: "You did a good job."
Workers these days lack initiative, especially financially, because there is no such thing as commission from selling things, and the income is the same whether you sell a lot or a little. So, no matter how well their products sell, the low-level workers will not report it.
It has been almost three months from last year to this year, and she really couldn't wait any longer, so she asked Ying Xiaoling to ask on the way.
Sure enough, their products were sold out on the train, but the grassroots crew members did not report it.
The reason is that it doesn’t matter whether they work more or less, they don’t want to report it.
Another thing is, if the supply is increased, they will definitely be busier. The work is obviously not very busy, so who would want to find work for themselves?
When the truck arrived at the commune, Jiang Wanyue got off first. She used the phone number of the bamboo weaving factory to call the person in charge at Guangcheng Railway Station.
"Hello, Section Chief Wen!" Jiang Wanyue said enthusiastically, "I am the director of the Xiaojing Non-staple Food Processing Factory in Hubei Province. My last name is Jiang."
"It's Director Jiang." Section Chief Wen said with a smile, "Your salesperson came here a few days ago. I ordered 500,000 packs of products from her for a month. Director Jiang, are you calling?"
"First of all, thank you Section Chief Wen for your support. Secondly, I have an idea." Jiang Wanyue said with a smile, "The train attendants are responsible for managing the train cargo and passengers first, and then selling goods. Our products are too popular and many people buy them, which takes up too much of the attendants' time. In the long run, I'm afraid it's not a good thing."
Director Wen nodded, this is indeed a problem.
On the train, each carriage is equipped with a crew member who needs to deal with all kinds of issues. Normally, when selling things, it only takes one trip and the work can be finished quickly. However, according to the employees, because products such as crispy fish slices and fish tofu sell well and many people buy them, the time spent in each carriage is really too long. Sometimes it takes half an hour to go through a carriage, and half a day to go through all of them, which really affects the main work.
