Chapter 84 Relocation and Hardship
Konka smoke machine has been in the market for half a year, because the brand is relatively new, and the customer recognition is not high.
Coupled with the company's operation, the operation of employee treatment and benefits is not very flexible. If the basic salary is high, you don't sell goods and lose money.
Low base salary, high commission, low treatment for good sales in the off-season, and can't be retained.
Ordinary employees do not pick a basic salary, and their sales ability is average. In a vicious circle, sales have not improved.
Lose money every month. Even though the rent is low and the management fee is exempted, the salary of two employees is compensated every month, and the basic salary alone costs nearly 4,000 yuan.
The sales performance was too poor, and the chain leaders decided to withdraw. I'm OK with all this, what should Sister Tong say?
I took the initiative to suggest that Sister Tong report and communicate with the Federation of Workers: I did not deduct liquidated damages, nor did I leave a deposit. Green light all the way.
The settlement of goods and sales is also processed and delivered on time.
After this incident, Sister Tong and I were also busy and gradually lost contact, which is a pity to think about it now.
The land on the fifth floor is getting hotter and hotter the more it is fried. Sales and customer flow complement each other and are rising.
So a voice quietly rose, such a good hypermarket to the home appliance business, it's a pity!
If you can't make much money, it's better to make clothes. Expand wool and cashmere, and become the largest clothing monopoly hypermarket in the Northeast region. Negotiate direct sales with the factory and introduce the factory into the store. Concurrently engaged in wholesale business, radiating the three eastern provinces.
Shopping malls are like battlefields, time is not waiting, just do what you say. After several rounds of consultations, the leaders made a decision. As soon as I gave the order, I had to vacate half of the store's operating area within two weeks to make a cashmere and wool hypermarket for the knitting branch.
The manufacturers of the knitting branch have begun to play counters outside the market, order goods, and prepare for half a month, and the fifth floor will open on time.
This has made me miserable, just stable, stable business, and I have to move, the key is to move hard, and forcibly compress the area.
The rent can be reduced, but the business area is also reduced, and the manufacturer does not take advantage of it.
The key is that there are shelves and counters, which can't be put down, and they have to be reordered. The most important thing is that no one went up to the fifth floor to operate, begging others, and making a big image cabinet is a display designed by a hypermarket.
As soon as the business is on the right track, the image has come out, the passenger flow has also come up, and it has begun to make a profit, and it is about to be beaten back to its original shape. I really regard home appliance manufacturers as a pioneer group.
This time, half of the area will be compressed, where can the goods be placed? The cost of customization of the counter does not matter. Why am I opening my mouth with someone! In the past, the hypermarket operation was said to be wild, but now it can be good, and the operation must be compressed.
There is no way, the leader can only implement what he decides, abandon the interests of the department, and take into account the overall situation of the company's profit.
I didn't sleep for two nights, so I found a way to hold it back. Cancel the small warehouse of small household appliances, and only keep the small warehouse of seasonal products, but charge storage fees on a daily basis per square meter. Seasonal products are three yuan per square meter per day. The rest are all stores that only put samples. No matter how much money is given, it will not be left in the treasury.
After the audio-visual and audio are all canceled, a small warehouse is set up in the stairwell, and the storage fee is seven yuan per square meter per day. Limit the inventory area of the manufacturer with high rents.
Ice washing is also no longer set up a warehouse. Only samples are placed, and the goods sold are shipped directly from the warehouse.
The cost of the TV showroom is too high, and only the TV retains the back library. Our offices are also crammed into the back of the TV.
Our venue is starting to get bigger.
For a while, it was another meal of chickens and dogs, this one, that one, so lively. The director and I did our separate work, coaxing and persuading, and appeasing both hard and soft.
Because the original warehouse area was converted into a business area, the area of the manufacturer was reduced by one-third. Some of the containers are barely usable, and the resentment is much less.
After all, we have to continue to cooperate, complain, and we play the emotional card. Finally, the relocation was scheduled and the opening of the knitted cashmere and wool hypermarket was not delayed.
And we actively assist manufacturers, keep an eye on sales and employees' on-the-job status, and I take the lead in managing people. Help lead the purchase and sales according to the actual set, do not run a single order, and do not lose the sales of wearing products. Help each other and firmly lock in consumption goals.
After a meal, the area, personnel, and costs were reduced, and the store structure became more and more compact, but the sales did not drop much, and the manufacturers gradually recognized and accepted. I was finally relieved.
It's a pity that this situation has just been stabilized for half a year, and my only remaining half of the store has been hit by the men's clothing branch.
After all, the successful experience of cashmere and wool hypermarkets is there, and everyone who looks at it is hot, and there is a sale. To make a profit, there is a profit.
The vice president in charge of the men's clothing branch proposed to follow suit, and also to make a down jacket hypermarket, wholesale and retail, the manufacturer Bosideng, Snow Flying, and Duck Duck have all been contacted, and have signed the provincial representative qualification, just waiting for the venue.
I was the last to know the information, and I was completely dumbfounded.
I knew in my heart that I couldn't compete with others. Sales profits, clothing and home appliances cannot be compared.
In particular, our company mainly wears cashmere and down. I worked hard to earn more than one million profits a year, which is just a month's profit for others.
Two bubbles grew on my mouth overnight, one on each of my upper and lower lips.
I don't know, where will I be shoved next? How do I appease these manufacturers? One head and two big, I'm going to have my hair gone.
I can't die if I'm dazed, I can only stand up, I don't dare to ask, I only pray in my heart: the leader changes his mind. But even I don't believe that the leader will change his mind, not to be a down jacket hypermarket, but also to make home appliances.
Alas! Leave it to fate, who let me be a deep foot and a shallow foot in the household appliances category. Accept your fate! It is said that men are afraid of entering the wrong industry, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. In these years, women are also afraid of entering the wrong industry. It's really as deep as the sea when you enter the Hou Gate.
If you want to have achievements, you must continue to specialize and improve. It's good to have a specialization in the art industry, but it also has its limitations. There is no way, the moon is cloudy and sunny, and people have joys and sorrows, and this matter is difficult to complete. Now, I have no choice but to accept my fate.
In the midst of anxiety, I was finally interviewed again, and I had to move to a new store newly expanded in the backyard on the first floor.
There is a manure pit under that location, and it rains on a cloudy day, and the drain mouth will return to the smell, which is too strong, and the employees have to take turns to go outside to breathe, which is really a headache. Absolute dead end location. Fortunately, there is a large glass revolving door and two small straight glass doors for ventilation.
The area has been reduced from more than 3,200 square meters to 1,680 square meters. In this broken place, home appliance manufacturers are still rushing to ask for it. I'm also drunk.
I don't know whether to be proud of the company, or to give away the hypermarket I have worked so hard to build, and cry.
Household appliances are really deaf ears and have become ornaments. I have to have this category, but the larger the area, the less money I make compared to making wear products.
The floor effect of household appliances is a fraction of the floor effect of other people's homes compared to the wearing products. For example, people's women's clothing is 23 yuan per square meter per day, and household appliances are 3 yuan per square meter per day. Appalling..
I also ran out of tricks, repeatedly surveying the site, drawing the floor plan by hand, and designing how to arrange these household appliances.
Because it is a place that comes out later, the site is very irregular, not a normal square hypermarket, with many corners, pillars, and deformed walls.
