“You’re wrong, Mi Fei. Buffets may seem to have a lot of variety, but as long as there’s a lot of foot traffic, they’re bound to make money. If you don’t believe me, let me tell you.”
"First, I place easily filling foods, such as pastries, fried meatballs, fried chicken, and desserts, in prominent locations. Customers are tempted to take more when they see these colorful items. Once they eat these, they feel full, and after a few drinks and some meat, their stomachs are almost full. As for expensive items, such as steak and abalone, we use an order system. Although the food is unlimited, there is always a queue, and each customer only has two hours to dine, so they can't order unlimited amounts of these items. Many women and children like to drink beverages, eat fruit, and eat ice cream. They get full after eating only a few things. Since there are many inexpensive items, and they are appealing, we don't lose money at all. Furthermore, our plates are not particularly large. Small plates create the feeling that there is a lot of food. When customers see that they have taken more than a dozen plates of food, they feel that they have taken enough..."
Ultimately, businessmen all have their own methods for doing business.
There is usually a wait for the expensive food items in the store.
However, the waiting time is also important. You can't make the guests wait too long, or they will complain. If the waiting time is too short, they will feel that it is not difficult to eat, and they will lose the satisfaction of eating at a buffet.
In short, Chu Yu carefully studied and grasped the psychology of her guests.
Although the alcohol was expensive, she could get wholesale prices by purchasing in large quantities.
She was even able to get bottles of alcohol that were about to expire from the manufacturers.
The manufacturers would dump those beers that still had six months left before their expiration date at low prices, and Chu Yu got them for even cheaper prices.
Once customers have drunk too much, they don't have much room in their stomachs to eat any more food.
Chu Yu had his reasons for opening the shop here. The nearby residents were all legitimate factory workers who ate at the factory and didn't lack food or drink. How much of their appetite could Chu Yu possibly lose money on?
If Chu Yu opened his shop on a construction site, catering to workers with large appetites, he might actually lose money. But if he opened it near a residential area in Beijing, he would never lose money.
Mi Fei suddenly realized, "No wonder Chu Yu is so amazing. Everyone in the circle knows that Dai Donglin found a girlfriend who's a goldmine. She's not only beautiful, but she also makes money. She's a real female millionaire."
