Chapter 382: Business Classics
It's not that easy to set up a store.
But she had to face the selection of stores and sources and technicians, and when it came to choosing which coffee machine and fruit to choose, she had a deep understanding.
Gu Xie Wu now understands how difficult it was for Zhao Hongguang to work hard with just his own hands.
In terms of difficulty, Zhao Hongguang's software development is much more difficult than her physical store with countless predecessors.
If you take the time to make something out, no one will appreciate it, and it may not sell it.
Gu Xie Wu thought about it for a while, now that she is facing real stores and customers, she will be afraid that her hard work and money will be wasted.
How difficult it was for Zhao Hongguang at that time, and he had to deal with her, a little girlfriend who always liked to make trouble.
The pressure he was under at the beginning was definitely several times that of his own.
When she didn't know it, Gu Xie Wu developed an almost invisible admiration for Zhao Hongguang.
Because he succeeded from nothing, relying only on his own struggle.
In the past, Gu Xie Wu may have felt that Zhao Hongguang relied on the resources and strength around him.
But in contrast, she is not relying on the relationship between Zhao Hongguang and Lu Shuangyu now, no matter how much they say that they did not interfere in her opening a store, they always remind her of the places that she should pay attention to.
In fact, she has a higher starting point than Zhao Hongguang.
At least she had the original funds, and Zhao Hongguang even earned her own living expenses at that time.
Zhao Hongguang has much more backbone than her.
If it weren't for the past of the two of them, she might have regarded Zhao Hongguang as an idol.
Now it can also explain why so many people admire Zhao Hongguang, until she has now entered A University, and the legend of Zhao Hongguang is still circulating among the freshman students.
He's nothing short of a myth.
When he first heard that others almost mythical him, Gu Xie Wu almost laughed and cried.
But now I finally understand something.
Gu Jiewu understood one thing, the backbone can't be used as food, can't be used as money, so when the number in the bank card decreased little by little, she stretched out a hand of help to her mother without skin and face.
Liu Qing knew that her daughter wanted to open a store, so she naturally fully supported it, even if it was a crow, it was different to gild a layer of gold.
Gu Jiewu's English is not good and she can't study abroad, she can't force it, but she can obediently go to A University to study, and she is also extremely satisfied.
Now that she is motivated and wants to improve herself, she is naturally fully supportive as a mother.
Gu Xie Wu originally wanted tens of millions of pieces, so he had an emergency.
But as soon as Liu Qing opened her mouth, she gave her 100,000 yuan and asked her to work hard.
Gu Xie Wu was stunned on the other end of the phone, 100,000 yuan is nothing for a rich person, but it was still obvious on the account, she asked her mother worriedly: "Where did you get so much money?
Liu Qing was holding her mobile phone in the bedroom, and she didn't have to worry about others listening: "After so many years, my mother still has some private money, you do your business well, don't worry about me here." ”
Gu Xie Wu fog, has her test of the waters risen to the level of "career"?
Yali Mountain is large.
She was not allowed to refuse, and 100,000 yuan had already entered her account.
Gu Jiewu suddenly felt inexplicably guilty, should she tell her mother that she actually has some private money?
Or don't want it, what if mom thinks she's cheating her out of money?
In the budget for opening the store, more than half of the rent was spent, more than 30,000 yuan was spent on decoration, and more than 20,000 yuan was spent on instant coffee machines, juicers, tables, chairs and benches.
If it weren't for the money given by Liu Qing, Gu Jiewu felt that he probably wouldn't even have the money to buy fruits.
Gu Xie Wu planned to invite only two people, her schoolwork was not easy or heavy, anyway, no one would stare at her as a bargaining student.
Ask two people, a cashier at the front desk, and sell coffee, milk, and milk tea.
The other one is responsible for fresh juice and tidying up the tabletop.
There are two shifts, from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. and from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Both of them can be present during peak times, plus they can come over to help when they don't have classes, no matter what, it's enough.
As for cleanliness and hygiene, do it for a while and then look at it, you can do it yourself if you can, and you can't invite another person.
She set a salary for both of them as a base salary of 1,005 plus commissions, and they can get a 10% commission for every drink or snack sold.
This method was proposed by Zhao Hongguang in order to control the wages of employees.
If she sets a dead salary for two people at the beginning, even if she can hire people very quickly, but people are not satisfied, and employees will soon slack off.
Once the service attitude is slack, it is inevitable that there will be no quality, and the drink is not a special product, so the quality of service must be guaranteed.
And for example, if the business is not good, Gu Jiewu can at least reduce the expenses of employees' salaries.
In addition, if the business is good, the salary of the two of them will not be less.
Overall, it's a win-win model.
Although Gu Xie Wu didn't know anything, under Zhao Hongguang's explanation, he also felt that what he said was very reasonable.
This model was adopted directly.
It took two months from the viewing to the official opening of the store.
It's just April, and the weather is getting hotter, so in addition to coffee and hot milk, other juices can gradually open up sales.
The dim sum in the shop is bought from other cake shops, and there is nothing to be made other than to guarantee absolute freshness.
After opening the store for more than a month, Gu Jiewu sorted out the books for the first time and found that in addition to rent, water, electricity and employee salaries, not counting his own salary, he earned less than 3,000 yuan.
Because it is a new store, the decoration is good, and everyone is willing to come, but if you wait for a while, it will be more dilapidated and dirty, and there may not be such a good income.
She began to think about what Zhao Hongguang said, open source and reduce expenditure.
Don't think about throttling, if it weren't for the good business at the beginning, the two high school dropouts who were invited might not be willing to take on the cleaning work.
Open source, only dim sum in the store is not profitable for the time being.
Looking at the gradually hot weather, she remembered the cold ice cream she ate when she was a child.
Anyway, now there are packaged powders in supermarkets, and they are made quickly.
She learned to do it a few times, anyway, many people on the roadside sell this, a little bit of material and sugar, just three yuan a bowl, it's just a huge profit!
Otherwise, how could those aunts who bought cold cakes outside the food stalls make a living just by selling these.
Gu Xie Wu began to test the waters, but he didn't expect the response to be good.
The main thing is that it looks relatively clean and hygienic, and there is a place to sit and blow the air conditioner for free.
The age dresses in the store have dropped from between fifteen and thirty to five to thirty.
Some children also began to like to come here to buy milk tea and snacks. (To be continued.) )
