Xiang Hong responded loudly, "Alright! Coming, coming..."
Two days ago, when Shen Yu instructed Hua Guanghui to buy this building, she arranged for a driver to bring over a large truckload of beverages today.
She was preparing for the expected surge in sales after the advertisement went live tomorrow, but she didn't expect so many people to gather here to watch the excitement today. It's a good opportunity to advertise their Happiness Drink.
Song Dahai was carrying a tray with several drinks and empty cups on it.
Xiang Hong was in charge of pouring drinks for the passersby uncles to try. "Here, uncles, please try our factory's drinks. This is a happiness cola that will make you feel sweet inside, this is a sweet and sour orange juice that's very appetizing, and this is a happiness soda that makes you feel so happy..."
A middle-aged man glanced at Xiang Hong and chuckled, teasing her, "You beautiful lady, your words are so sweet..."
Xiang Hong chuckled and said, "If you're happy to hear this, I can say a little more. The drinks from our Happiness Beverage Factory are not only delicious, but also good for your health. Take this orange juice, for example; it can stimulate your appetite and replenish vitamins. The vitamin content is especially high; one bottle is equivalent to eating several fruits a day..."
The middle-aged man on the street stared in surprise, "Really? You're not kidding me!"
Xiang Hong raised her hand and swore, "If I tell even half a lie, may I be punished by becoming an ugly monster."
The middle-aged man on the street was amused by her and laughed heartily. "Okay, okay, I believe you. I'll try this orange juice. If it's delicious and nutritious, I'll buy some to take home."
Xiang Hong poured him a glass of orange juice, smiling as she handed it to him, "Uncle, please have some!"
The middle-aged man took the plastic cup with the "Happiness Drink" logo, looked at the orange juice, took a sip, and savored it.
Nine parts sweet, one part sour, the taste is really smooth and it feels good to drink.
The sweetness is also very natural, without any artificial sweetener taste.
He then drank the remaining orange juice in a few sips.
The middle-aged man on the street nodded towards Hong and said something from the heart, "This orange juice is good, it tastes pretty good, how much is a bottle?"
Xiang Hong replied, "Orange juice costs one yuan a bottle."
An older man on the street complained, "Other people's sodas only cost a few cents, but you sell them for a dollar a bottle. That's not cheap."
Xiang Hong explained, "Uncle, this orange juice is made from fresh fruit, so it costs a lot more than soda, and naturally it's a bit more expensive. Our soda only costs 50 cents a bottle. Would you like to try this soda instead?"
The middle-aged man nodded. "Okay, I'll try this soda."
Xiang Hong poured him another glass of soda.
Other onlookers, seeing that there were free drinks, all gathered around and said they wanted to try them.
Xiang Hong and Song Dahai are both a bit too busy.
As more and more people gathered, Shen Yu went forward to help.
The flow of people here is so large that ten boxes of drinks were quickly sampled.
Xiang Hong felt a pang of heartache and quietly asked Shen Yu, "Chairwoman Shen, if we keep tasting like this, I'm afraid even a hundred cases won't be enough!"
Shen Yu laughed and said, "It's alright, let them drink as much as they want. Consider today's drinks as an advertisement. I'm confident that once those people drink them, they'll eventually buy them."
This kind of promotional tactic became very common in later generations.
Some major supermarkets offer free samples and drinks from the beginning to the end of the year. Many people say that they can fill their stomachs without buying anything by going in to try the samples and drinks.
But their business didn't suffer; on the contrary, they made a fortune from their customers. This is the business of making big profits with small investments.
Seeing boxes and boxes of drinks being sent out for people to try, they seem to be losing a lot of money, but what they gain is one potential customer after another.
Their future spending will definitely not be limited to just a few drinks they sampled this time; it could be several cases, or even dozens of cases.
Although many people leave immediately after trying the taste.
But some people, like that middle-aged man on the street, bought five bottles each of cola, orange juice, and soda after trying the samples.
Xiang Hong happily said to him, "Uncle, thank you! If you like it, you're welcome to come again next time!"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I live nearby and often come here. I'll come again."
Xiang Hong replied with a smile, "Okay, take care!"
The middle-aged man waved to them and walked away with a flourish.
Xiang Hong continued to pour drinks for other passersby and continued to promote her product.
Shen Yu watched as Xiang Hong enthusiastically introduced various drinks to the guests, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.
Even if this girl doesn't become her secretary, she'd be a talent in sales!
Song Dahai is quite an interesting guy. He actually copied Xiang Hong's promotional slogan and enthusiastically introduced various drinks to the customers.
Her employees are all quite good; they all work proactively without her having to remind or urge them, which makes her, as the boss, feel quite at ease.
If she were to encounter a subordinate who was as wooden as a log, only moving when kicked, she would have a real headache.
No boss likes a dull subordinate like this. They'll either get fired or relegated to an unimportant position and never get a chance to be promoted.
Shen Yu would definitely promote capable and competent subordinates like Xiang Hong, Song Dahai, Hua Guanghui, and Man Jianfeng as soon as the opportunity arises.
Even if she can't promote them for the time being, she will give them a raise and try to retain such good subordinates.
Shen Yu and the others were busy until dark when she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to call the tea restaurant to have them deliver food to Lu Weizheng.
She quickly put down what she was doing, found a phone booth, and called the tea restaurant.
