Chapter 140: Exploding Orders
In order to divert the attention of the employees, in addition to breaking the fortune and eliminating the disaster and drawing a big cake, Chen Linzhi also used a trick.
Not only does it retain the high commission reward of 3% of the previous orders, but also sets the commission to be calculated according to 3% of the total order amount within this week, and the new regulations will be implemented for commodity quotations.
This led to the company's salesmen, who were so busy that they were about to go crazy, and they made use of the resources at hand.
Some go out to meet with potential buyers who have been contacted earlier, while others stay in the office and make phone calls to tell them about the offer.
Compared to making money, who is in the mood to think about changing the rules.
What's more, as long as you catch a big customer, you will double calculate the commission income when you place an order in the future, which is already a good provision.
Feng Haichao, one of the company's "oldest" employees, originally planned to use this job as a transition, but he didn't expect to win a few orders and find that the income was quite good, so he stayed until now.
He made more than a dozen phone calls one after another today.
What surprised Feng Haichao was that after the other party heard him finish talking about the new offer, most of them expressed interest, and the rest of the part was not that the price was too high, but that they doubted that selling it so cheaply would lead to a decline in product quality, and treated him as a liar.
There are two preliminarily finalized orders.
A wholesaler specializing in the socks business told that when the goods were finished, if they could, they would take the goods from Feng Haichao's side, considering that the other party is one of the largest shoe and socks wholesalers in North Canada, the scale is likely to be amazing.
Chen Linzhi heard the news and rushed to see the excitement with a coffee cup.
I saw Feng Haichao holding the phone and communicating with a potential customer in Cantonese.
The content is probably that there is a factory in Huaxia that sells clothes to clear the goods, the top cotton short sleeves, the factory price is a seven-fold discount compared with before, there are only 200,000 pieces in stock in total, and you can make a lot of money by taking them casually.
Hearing about the quotation, the other party agreed to look at the sample on the spot, and asked Feng Haichao to keep it for himself.
This makes Feng Haichao's intended customers, and one more customer, who is difficult to talk about in advance, becomes particularly easy to talk with the price reduction of products.
Considering the large price difference between the cross-shore commodities and the existing commodities on the market, Chen Linzhi began to regret that his heart had been blackened in the previous few months, and he had made wrong decisions, but he had forgotten the core competitiveness of the cross-strait commodities - the price and cost advantage.
As a fallen master, having personally experienced the foreign trade business in the early days of reform and opening up, Chen Linzhi had a clearer understanding of the advantages occupied by the motherland.
It can only be said that poverty and backwardness also have advantages, when a large number of young and middle-aged labor resources are utilized, they can quickly seize a share of the global trade system, Southeast Asia, Brazil, even Mexico and other places, with the development of the previous two or three decades, the cost of wages has risen steadily.
In order to make money, the salesmen used all the tricks and abductions, and used all their strength to find buyers.
San Francisco United Trading Company exploded all of a sudden......
-------------------------------------
"In the past few months, the salesmen have accumulated some sales resources, and now the customers find that our products are of good quality and low price, so there is no reason not to buy from us.
It is estimated that we don't have to worry about orders for the next period of time, but the shortcomings of procurement, transportation, and finance have suddenly been exposed, and you are more experienced, how should we solve it?"
On Friday, Chen stayed in his office.
I have a new contract just signed in the last two days, a total of eleven, if all are completed, the total amount will be as high as more than 7 million US dollars, the gross profit margin can be about 12% on average, and new orders are constantly being signed.
At Walmart, Dempsey is trying his best to convince his boss to agree to a large order.
Once successful, the total purchase amount will be more than these orders combined, and it is likely to be as high as tens of millions of dollars, as always, the price is still increased on the basis of Chen Linzhi's quotation, as a commission for Dempsey.
Compared with the sales in the past two days, it seems that doing business has become a small fight before, but after starting to do business in a regular manner, the gross profit margin has plummeted, and it is difficult to make a windfall.
Judging from the total scale of this batch of goods, Chen Linzhi is likely to charter a small cargo ship and make a trip from the port city to California for himself.
The number of orders has soared, the company is still the same, and many departments are in urgent need of manpower, so Chen Linzhi found Xu Wei, Roger and David, three executives, for a meeting.
Xu Wei knows very well that the orders in the past two days are due to the accumulation of potential customer resources in the early stage.
As the director of the purchasing department, he had a sleepless night, worrying about how to properly handle the order.
At this moment, Xu Wei told: "There is no way, I can only recruit people as soon as possible, recruit some experienced employees, and put them into work immediately after learning." Especially in the procurement department, suppliers have to contact, and there are many things that want to be handled by the specifications of goods, packaging, and inspection certificates. ”
"Yes, there is definitely no way to recruit people, there are too many orders, especially for summer clothing, and the delivery cycle is relatively short. David Lynch said.
Chen Linzhi couldn't imagine that he would be distressed by too many orders.
Painful and happy, he nodded and replied: "I'll go to a headhunting company later, find some employees with real skills, so as not to waste time in the training and learning process." Roger, you go and arrange someone to summarize the detailed foreign trade business process, copy it out for preparation, and then learn from the new employees. ”
As the business director, Roger, who was confused because his subordinates had earned a windfall, was pleased with how correct his decision to choose to change jobs was, and agreed without saying a word.
With the appearance of a start-up, it is full of energy.
Whether it's a flash in the pan or what, anyway, as long as the existing orders are processed, Chen Linzhi can earn at least five or six hundred thousand US dollars.
They had a meeting.
A rough car parked downstairs in the company's office building.
Miss Anastasia just chatted with Chen Linzhi on the phone last night, she didn't inform Chen Linzhi in advance, so she impulsively took a day off and bought a plane ticket to San Francisco, with a small luggage.
In the blink of an eye, it has been more than half a month since Chen Linzhi left Bentonville Town.
For Anastasia, who is blinded by love, every day seems difficult, so I want to surprise Chen Linzhi and take a look at his living and working environment.
It's easier to ask for leave, and the cost of the trip is not a problem for her, so she just wants to come.
It was only then that Anastasia became nervous, worried about disturbing his work or being unpopular.
The words "San Francisco Union Trading Company" were written on the elevator entrance, and she took a deep breath and pressed the elevator button.
Go upstairs to the company.
In a small office area, countless employees are busy and noisy.
There are many computers in the reception area, a Macintosh personal computer produced by Apple, and a female receptionist with blond hair and fair complexion, who just took off her braces a few days ago, and does not hesitate to smile.
She asked Anastasia, "Hello, this is the San Francisco Union Trading Company, who are you looking for?"
"Alan Chen. ”
"Wait a minute, I'll check the boss's appointment. The female receptionist pretended to be, in fact, almost no one came to Chen Linzhi, and she was quite free every day, she felt that this was more formal.
Miss Anastasia took it seriously, and hurriedly told, "I haven't made an appointment, I ...... It's his girlfriend. ”
This time, the female receptionist was full of surprise, mainly because she also had some thoughts about Chen Linzhi, but she didn't expect the boss to be in love, and seeing that Anastasia was still very beautiful, she was instantly depressed.
Squeezing out a smile, he told Anastasia, "Chen is in the office, you can see it if you go straight ahead." ”
Chen Linzhi was busy holding meetings and discussing next decisions with senior executives.
Accidentally through the cracks in the blinds, I saw Anastasia coming, at first I thought I was dazzled, but after a serious look, I realized that it was really her.
Without caring about talking about things, Chen Linzhi got up and hurriedly opened the door and smiled at Anastasia: "Unbelievable, why did you come here, you didn't tell me last night, I knew I should have picked you up at the airport." ”
Anastasia smiled and told him: "I heard you tell you about the address of the company, is it an accident? Stay tomorrow for a day, go to Atlanta next Monday to accompany your boss to the meeting, and leave on Sunday night, I see that these people are very busy, if you delay your business, please don't worry about me, I just want to come and meet you......"
