Chapter 74
While eating melon seeds and looking at the scene in the supermarket outside the window, time passed quickly, and it was already past nine o'clock in the morning.
There are fewer customers in the supermarket.
Lu Hao got up, clapped his hands, walked to the cashier, and asked Wang Ting, "Do you have an idea of the approximate turnover?"
There are no computers, and cashiers rely on manual labor, which greatly tests the cashier's ability. Not only must he have strong mental arithmetic skills, but he must also be able to quickly calculate the price of vegetables and give change when customers check out, and he must also have a strong memory.
You really can't be a cashier if you're not very clever.
"Maybe seven or eight thousand," Wang Ting said.
Lu Hao nodded. There were seven or eight thousand yuan in most of the morning. There should be no problem in reaching 10,000 yuan in sales throughout the day. After excluding nearly 50% of the cost, the profit for the day can be 5,000 yuan.
This was the same thing he had just observed in the office.
The turnover is much less than yesterday, but this is normal, but with such a turnover, there is no one nearby that can do business!
The profit of 5,000 yuan a day is higher than the combined profits of all the stalls in the state-owned vegetable market next to the wall!
Just because he changed his business method and transformed the traditional stall into a fresh food supermarket, all the products are placed on the shelves with clearly marked prices, and he has very high quality control requirements and also very high service requirements.
Although the price is clearly marked and cannot be negotiated, which is criticized by some customers, customers can pick and choose, pick it up and put it down again. No one would say that this is definitely not possible in state-owned units.
Touch this, take that, and those in state-owned units will immediately look down upon you.
This is the difference!
Although they are all small details, they can affect the customer's shopping experience and attract customers to your side.
The actual situation is also the same. Many customers from the state-owned vegetable market came to him. Some were even very unscrupulous and walked around the state-owned vegetable market without buying anything, and then went to the fresh food supermarket to buy something.
After getting the food, he deliberately carried it away from the state-owned vegetable market.
I guess I have been disgusted by the state-owned wet market in the past. This time I took the opportunity to take revenge.
The other one has few competitors and there is no fresh food supermarket nearby. Lu Hao is Scorpion's daddy - the only one!
"Brother Hao, you've made a fortune." Zhang Zhigang came over and said excitedly, "Just these 5 stalls have more turnover than the 15 stalls in the state-owned wet market combined."
The more he looked at Lu Hao, the more he admired him, "I just wandered around the supermarket for a while and eavesdropped on the customers' speeches. I found that some people complained a little about not being able to bargain on price, but they were very satisfied with everything else. We can choose whatever we want.
, no one will tell them anything, and if they don’t want to buy it after choosing it, it’s no problem to put it down, and they won’t be forced to buy it.”
"The clearly marked prices are very suitable for young people's appetite. Many people say that they will go to the fresh food supermarket when buying food in the future. Even some old men and women like to pick vegetables with their hands without realizing it. Our vegetables are very fresh, but they still pinch them.
There are fingernail marks on them, I reminded them several times, but to no avail."
Zhang Zhigang was a little helpless.
If this had happened in the state-owned vegetable market before, he would have yelled, "If you want to buy it or not, pick the vegetables, and get out of here!"
But this is not the case at Weiminsheng Fresh Supermarket. Lu Hao mentioned that you cannot be harsh on customers and you must always smile.
smiling service.
I can only remind them, but after reminding those old men and women, they still don't care. It's okay to pick up the vegetables and buy them myself. If I don't buy them and leave a nail mark, how uncomfortable will the customers behind me be?
"Next time someone picks vegetables, just give them to him directly." Lu Hao said.
???
"Give it to him? Wouldn't that be an advantage for them?" Zhang Zhigang was very surprised after hearing this, "Don't you know that those old men and women like to take advantage of themselves? If you really want to grab the food, just give it to them. They can come here every day to take advantage.
Wouldn't it be better to just throw the vegetables they pinched into the trash can? Other customers will be happy to see this situation and will stand by us."
"Throwing it in the trash can hurts people's self-esteem." Lu Hao shook his head, "If we really do this, customers will indeed be on our side, but in their hearts they may feel that we are unkind, and if any old man or woman has too much self-esteem,
If we start a quarrel on the spot, become so angry and faint, we will be criticized even more."
Some things make sense, but will be isolated.
If you report a classmate for cheating on an exam, people will say that you have a great sense of justice and won't say that you did something wrong, but they will gradually alienate you.
"We have to respect our customers, and we have to be gentle with them, not hard. The customer is not your wife, so we can't use force. Although those uncles and aunts have bad behavior and habits, most of them still want to face shame. If they pinch us, we will give it away. Then we will give it away.
Keep pinching and giving away until their skin gets hot." Lu Hao said, "Even if there are one or two old scoundrels with a face thicker than the city wall, we can still afford this kind of loss."
"Don't be afraid of suffering losses. Sometimes suffering losses can also be a blessing."
In fact, he still had a calculation in mind. Being able to come to Weiminsheng Fresh Supermarket showed that he had a strong ability to accept new things. There was no chance that any old man or woman would walk out of the vegetable market and enter a compound full of guards.
When doing business, peace is the most important thing. Don't throw the food into the trash can and let the guards take it away when you turn around.
People who live in the compound, especially old men and women, should not be messed with easily!
A successful male businessman is timid when he needs to be timid, and tough when he needs to be tough. He handles things randomly according to the needs of his customers.
He patted Zhang Zhigang's shoulder and said, "In addition, when taking stock of the shelves, make a statistics on which vegetables are selling well and which vegetables are selling poorly. The vegetables that sell well should be placed in a conspicuous position. Arrange more shelves and sell more.
Put the inferior ones next to them, put less quantity on the shelves, and make corresponding adjustments when purchasing."
These are the basic requirements for opening a supermarket.
"Okay." Zhang Zhigang nodded repeatedly, his admiration for Lu Hao deepening in his heart.
He thought that opening a supermarket would be simple, just make it beautifully decorated, look spacious and bright, and clearly mark the prices on the products. That would be enough, but he didn't expect that there would be so many more.
At this moment, Shi Xiong ran in from outside and said, "Brother Hao, Ma Youliang is here. It looks like he is going to cause trouble. They also brought many carts with fruits and vegetables on them."
Lu Hao raised his head and looked outside. No need for Shi Xiong to continue, he had already seen Ma Youliang coming.
"Let's go out and take a look." He was not afraid at all and walked out directly.
Shi Xiong followed.
Zhang Zhigang grabbed Shi Xiong and stuffed a kitchen knife into his hand, "Be prepared."
He also held a boning knife in his hand.
The two of them followed Lu Hao, like guardians on their left and right.
