Chapter 158: Entrepreneurial Stage

When you arrive in the provincial capital, the first thing you do is not to go straight to the wholesale market to batch goods, nor to find a hotel to stay in first, but to find a house to rent directly near the train station.

This step is a must.

If you want to expand your business in the provincial capital, you must have an office in the provincial capital, otherwise the franchisees can't even find a place, and they can go to a small county town to connect with you?

Tang Mingyao is not ready to find a too prosperous location, just find a small shop that can't be rented out at the mouth of the deserted alley, and just settle down.

Anyway, it's not for external business, but it needs such a place.

After looking for an hour, I successfully found a suitable one, which is only a 10-minute walk from the wholesale market.

Then it was to negotiate the price and lease period with the landlord, and it took another half an hour for the key to be in the hands of Tang Mingyao and the others.

This kind of shop is really cheap, and it can be done for 200 yuan a month.

It has an area of more than 20 square meters, and there is nothing in it, it is empty.

After a brief cleaning, I went to the nearby second-hand furniture market and bought a desk and came back with a few chairs.

Then there is the installation of a landline, which is more troublesome, and after making a call, I know that no one will come to the door until Monday.

Then the father and son went to a nearby advertising agency to make posters.

The photos are all ready-made, before Tang Mingyao came, he had already done real-life shooting of all angles for the three jewelry stores, and now he handed over the things to the designers, and explained the design requirements clearly, so there was nothing to do with him.

You only need to wait two days to get what you want.

These posters, which he used to show to interested franchisees, were mainly pasted on the wall of the office to increase the professionalism and business atmosphere.

When this is done, it will be dark.

The father and son had dinner, found a small hotel nearby, asked for a standard room with two beds, and rested first.

When I went out with my father, I had to save money in all aspects, and the accommodation standard was lowered directly from the hotel to the hostel.

However, after moving in, Tang Mingyao found that the conditions here were not much different from those of the hotel, they were all two beds in one room, and they were not much different in other aspects.

That's it.

Put down your backpack and wash up, take time to read a book, do push-ups and sit-ups, exercise your body, and when it is past 10 o'clock, you will fall asleep.

The next day was Sunday, and there were still two things to be done yesterday, but they couldn't push it themselves, so they could only wait for someone else's schedule, so the two went to the wholesale market first, approved some goods, and then took the car to the northeastern suburbs of the provincial capital.

Over there, there is a large area of small and medium-sized processing workshops in ambush in the countryside, not to mention hundreds, and at least half of these goods in the wholesale market are processed from those workshops.

When they arrived at the ground, the two visited one by one.

First in the name of customized goods, go in to visit, see the scale of the workshop, processing capacity, the proficiency of workers, and whether the products you need are matched, etc., after reading the feeling that you can, just chat with the boss, leave a business card, and say goodbye euphemistically.

A day was spent on the tour.

When I returned to the hotel in the evening, I had dozens of more business cards in my hand, and after sifting through them for a while, I left seven or eight that I thought were suitable.

On Monday morning, the call finally came, and Tang Mingyao left his father in the store, went to the advertising agency by himself, and retrieved the poster.

The work in the morning is to decorate the office, and after the phone is installed, after trying to call, there is no problem, and in the afternoon, Tang Mingyao and his father went to the city daily office non-stop, paid the money, and bought the advertising position sewn in the newspaper for a week.

When he paid the money, Tang Hui was so distressed that his teeth hurt.

Just a little bit of tofu cubes, after a week, thousands of pieces will go out.

It's really profitable to make a newspaper these days!

Tang Mingyao thinks it doesn't matter, doing business, there is no upfront investment, he just wants to empty gloves and white wolves, how can there be so many good things?

At least he doesn't have that ability, everything is still in order, and it's better to be steady.

After returning from the newspaper, Tang Mingyao went to the advertising company again and asked them to change a leaflet for him on the basis of the poster, adding the phone number of the office and printing 1,000 copies for him first.

He was going to take this thing to the gate of the middle school and give a copy to the store owners, and the most of them would be posted on the wall outside the school gate, and a few people would always take the bait.

The leaflet will not be printed until tomorrow.

After today's work, go back to the hotel early to rest.

Tang Mingyao sat at the head of the bed, wrote a dense page of answering the phone, and told his father that if someone called to inquire tomorrow, what might others ask, how should he answer then, and asked his father to take the paper and memorize it a few times.

The next day, when I was leaving the hotel, I bought a newspaper at a newsstand on the side of the road and found an advertisement for my home.

["High School Entrance Examination Champion Learning and Living Hall" is looking for retail store franchisees!

It looks pretty good, Tang Mingyao thought about it for a while, if he had a little spare money and wanted to do a small business, he would be a little moved when he saw this advertisement.

When he arrived at the store, he left his father to answer the phone, and he went to the advertising agency to get the flyer and went straight to the nearest middle school.

It's school day, and the shops in front of the school are basically open.

Tang Mingyao walked by the family, talked to the boss about two sentences, and then stuffed a leaflet into them.

There are real photos of the scene, and there are more sensational affiliate slogans than the newspaper ads, which look very professional and tall.

After sending it around, seeing that there was no one, Tang Mingyao posted a few leaflets on the telephone poles and on the wall, covering the small advertisements for a child and the treatment of X poison.

This approach is a bit low, but Tang Mingyao doesn't care. As long as it can be seen and can attract even one interested franchisee, let him low, do you have to talk about it during the entrepreneurial period?

After running this middle school, Tang Mingyao did not stop, and went to several other middle schools, running five schools in one day.

When they go back in the evening, they will be exhausted and collapsed.

"Dad, did you call today?" Lying on the bed, he asked Tang Hui.

Tang Hui said a little excitedly: "Yes! There were more than a dozen calls, all of which came to ask about the specific situation. I made an introduction according to what you wrote, and a few people hung up directly as soon as they heard that they wanted a franchise fee, but there were still a few people who listened to me, and two of them also said that they would come to our office for an interview tomorrow. ”

Tang Mingyao said: "That's fine, newspaper advertising has been effective in recent years. I'm not going to hand out flyers tomorrow and I'm going to be in the store with you to receive those people. ”

Tang Hui said: "Okay, I'm really a little empty if you're not there, I'm afraid I won't be able to tell people well." ”

Tang Mingyao said: "Keep the rest of the leaflets for now, and then find time to distribute them when the wave of phone calls and consultations in the newspaper has passed." Anyway, this office is definitely going to be open for a long time, Dad, you will stay here for a lot of time in the future, and you are not in a hurry. ”
