V. Plan for Establishing Sales Offices
1. Site Selection Principles
- Economic Centers and Transportation Hubs: Prioritize economic centers or transportation hubs in various countries, such as New York, London, and Tokyo. These cities have developed economies, strong purchasing power, and convenient transportation, facilitating their influence on surrounding areas and attracting talent and business activities.
- Market Potential and Competitive Environment: Comprehensively assess the size, growth potential, and competitive environment of the local market. Choosing a region with high market potential and relatively low competition is beneficial for brands to quickly penetrate the market.
- Policy and Business Environment: Pay attention to local government support policies for businesses, such as tax incentives and land policies. At the same time, examine the local business environment, including the completeness of laws and regulations and the strength of intellectual property protection, to ensure the legality and stability of the company's operations.
2. Organizational Structure and Staffing
- Office Manager: Each sales office will have a manager responsible for overall operations and management. The manager should possess extensive marketing experience, cross-cultural communication skills, and team management abilities, and be able to develop and implement effective marketing strategies based on local market conditions.
- Sales Team: Recruit local sales personnel familiar with the home furnishing market to be responsible for customer development, maintenance, and sales. Sales personnel should possess excellent communication and sales skills, be able to accurately grasp customer needs, and provide professional product solutions.
- Marketing Personnel: A marketing team will be assigned to develop and execute local marketing plans, including advertising, promotional activity planning, and public relations maintenance. Marketing personnel should be familiar with local media channels and the marketing environment, and possess innovative marketing thinking.
- After-sales service personnel: Establish an after-sales service team to handle customer complaints, product repairs, returns, and exchanges. After-sales service personnel should possess professional technical knowledge and a positive service attitude to ensure customer satisfaction.
3. Operations Management
- Goal Setting and Performance Appraisal: Based on the overall strategic goals of headquarters, set specific indicators such as annual sales targets and market share targets for each sales office. Establish a scientific and reasonable performance appraisal system to regularly evaluate and assess the work performance of office staff, motivating employees to actively complete their work tasks.
- Financial Management: Establish an independent financial accounting system to strictly manage the financial income and expenditure of branch offices. Develop a budget management system to reasonably control various expenses. Report the financial status to headquarters regularly to ensure the accuracy and transparency of financial information.
