Looking at the string of zeros on the contract, he couldn't help but rub his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things.
Not only him, but the sales staff around him were also surprised!
“Is solid wood furniture so profitable?”
"Then why did our factory end up in that state?" someone asked puzzled.
The head of the sales department was the first to calm down. "Alright, the Canton Fair isn't over yet. Everyone still needs to do their job of entertaining guests. In the next period of time, we should strive to sign a few more orders. If the total amount of orders can reach 300,000, I will apply for bonuses for you when we return!"
Originally, he thought it would be enough to have an order worth tens of thousands of yuan, but this incident just now made him ambitious.
Strive to break through 300,000!
"Okay!" others responded.
Before, they would have thought that this was an impossible task, but now, they feel very hopeful and believe that if they work hard, they may be able to achieve it.
However, facts have proved that the person in charge was still a little timid. What is 300,000?
With the arrival of the second guest, signing the contract and leaving, the deal was easily reached.
"Hiss—why are you pinching me?"
"I wanted to see if I was dreaming, but now it seems that I'm not dreaming, it's all real."
As soon as these two words came out, everyone woke up instantly.
"Ah——" I couldn't help but get excited, but I didn't dare to make too much noise. I could only let out a silent cry in my heart.
If you have not experienced the days of not being able to sell a single set of furniture for a month or two, you will not be able to understand their excitement at this moment.
Then, four hundred thousand, five hundred thousand...
In front of the furniture factory's booth, there was a circle of people watching the fun. Everyone looked at the carved furniture in front of them with envy, but in the end they had to settle for the second best and chose the combination cabinets, spring sofas, and combination sofas on the other side.
Although the unit price of these furniture is not as high as that of a complete set of carved furniture, the large number of people buying them has led to the order volume quickly exceeding six figures.
Solid wood furniture and panel furniture are both making efforts to attract all the merchants entering the exhibition.
By the end of the trade fair, the total order amount of Huaju Furniture Factory had exceeded seven figures.
Such a sky-high figure really opened the eyes of the participants, and at the same time, they began to wonder if they were dreaming.
Not only them, but also the staff who stayed behind at the furniture factory couldn't help but scratch their ears when they heard the good news.
How much? Did they hear correctly?
After repeated confirmation, a burst of ghostly howling sounds suddenly rang out in the office.
The person in the office next door heard this and pushed the door open angrily, "What are you doing? What the hell are you yelling about? Are you still working?"
"Hahahaha—I have good news for you. This is the number of orders we received at this Canton Fair."
"Seven thousand? That's not that great."
"What seven thousand? It's a seven-digit number!"
"Seven digits? Seven digits!!!"
Suddenly, a high-decibel scream was heard in the office again.
“Ahhhh—”
The good news was soon known to the managers, but they were still calmer than ordinary employees.
When I heard this number, I was happy and surprised, but my first reaction was - there are not enough people!
The office of the head of the human resources department was soon occupied by a group of people.
"Old Feng, hurry up and recruit people!"
"Recruiting!"
Not only are they anxious, he is anxious too!
The sooner we finish, the sooner we can deliver the goods, and the sooner we can get the final payment.
Panel furniture is fine, as there are production lines, so as long as we have the right people, we can start working. But solid wood furniture is different, as it's hard to find a skilled craftsman, and even harder to find one with superb craftsmanship and the ability to carve patterns.
For the sake of product quality, we cannot rush the work.
Fortunately, the head of the sales department understood this very well. When signing the contract, he fully considered the production speed of his own factory. The delivery period of carved furniture is measured in years.
The latest one has a delivery date scheduled for the year after next.
The first set of carved furniture took the master craftsmen more than two months. Now the number of manpower has doubled, and with the increase in proficiency, the speed will also be greatly improved.
The order was delivered on time, no problem.
Even so, the head of the human resources department did not relax. He had already seen the prospects of the factory. As their factory became more and more famous, there would be more and more orders.
If you don't find a skilled worker in advance, it will be too late when the time comes. Wouldn't you just be watching your money go to waste?
In addition, he also had a little idea. There were more than just their furniture factories in China. Now that their carved furniture was selling so well, other factories would definitely be jealous and might follow suit.
He recruited skilled craftsmen in advance, so that even if they followed the trend, they could only follow their factory and eat soup.
No one knew about the foresight of the head of the Human Resources Department. Ever since the good news from the Canton Fair came back, the entire furniture factory had been busy as hell.
The factory expansion, worker recruitment, and equipment purchase are all in full swing.
Because the factory's business is good, the workers' wages and benefits have increased significantly. It can be said that they are among the best in the industry.
Therefore, it has become the first choice for many people with some carpentry skills when looking for jobs.
The more people apply for jobs, the greater the probability of recruiting talents, and the better the factory's business will be. In this way, a virtuous circle is formed.
With the completion of the first batch of panel furniture orders, Huaju Furniture Factory's combination cabinets, spring sofas, modular sofas, etc. have also been sold all over the country.
At that time, the capital was a place that everyone flocked to. If you said that this furniture came from Beijing, others would look at it with a higher regard. In addition, the product quality was guaranteed, and it quickly became famous.
Many sharp-eyed businessmen followed the clues and found Huaju Furniture Factory. The sales department employees no longer had to go out to find sales channels. They could sit in the office and sign contracts until their hands were sore.
However, due to production issues, there are still a lot of people who cannot get orders and can only come to the factory every day to make trouble. The people in charge of reception are both happy and sad.
Another month passed, and good news came from the factory again: Simmons mattress had been developed.
When it comes to furniture, beds are a big deal. For thousands of years, our ancestors slept on wooden beds. The more sophisticated ones would add a few quilts, while the less sophisticated ones would just sleep on a wooden board. Comfort was definitely compromised.
The turning point of bedding was the emergence of Simmons.
Since then, spring mattresses have been firmly integrated into beds and have become standard.
