Small boss big business


Small boss big business

I am savvy, but I have been doing business.
I have always believed that in all businesses, the regular business around people's food, clothing, housing and transportation is an everlasting business, and the unchanging truth of these forever business is "integrity", which is "憨" in Sichuan dialect. After so many years in the business field, I have become more and more aware of the principle of “doing business first”, which is “word of mouth”.
I used to sell rice, opened restaurants, bought and sold used cars, and raised orchids. When I sold rice, I was purely a small street vendor. Earn a few cents per kilometer of rice, and count the money at night to cross the corner. But when I call the rice, I will call it Wangwang. When I finish it, I will add it to other people's rice bags. When I enter the new product, I will send one or two pounds to the hesitant mother-in-law to take it back. The market is bullish. I will wait a few days to go up again. In this way, my customers are more and more, especially the mother-in-law of the residential areas, often lined up in front of my booth. After a few years, my grain and oil business has grown bigger and bigger.
I didn't take my peers as competitors. I often told them about my purchase channels. Sometimes the peers are out of stock, I will lend them to sell. The business is small and big, I never owe the money of the supplier, insist on using the current money to buy goods. Gradually, I have a good reputation among my peers. For a while, a large amount of northern flour poured into Sichuan, many manufacturers have found me and asked me to be the general agent. After selling the goods, I will rush to send the money to the door. I always feel that the money in arrears is uncomfortable and embarrassing. A food trader in Henan who I have never met, people in the future Sichuan, once suddenly sent me more than 30 wagons of wheat to help me sell, it is unprepared. I tossed for half a month to help sell out and remit the money to the other party in time. I have helped a lot of this, some businesses don't make money, some have to pay for it, but I have gained the trust of others. Many manufacturers have painfully recalled in front of me the experience of being sold by others to sell "jumping goods". Now, there are too few people like you.
When I do a second-hand car business, I will buy a car at a slightly higher price than others, and I will sell it at a slightly lower price than others. For those who buy a car, I will tell him exactly what is wrong with the car, and how much it costs to go to which repair shop can be repaired. In this way, people with old cars like to come to me, my supply is more than others, and the car sells fast. At that time, those colleagues said that they "do not understand" me.
I took over the restaurant of a hotel, and the peers thought that the restaurant in the hotel industry was not good. After taking over, I found that the reason why it is not good to do is that consumers think that it is "expensive", has many rules, and the taste type has not changed for a long time. I immediately broke the rules, banned the room fee, bottle opening fee, service fee; allowed consumers to bring their own drinks; gross profit reduced from 60% of general hotels to 40%; food innovation, personally went to the mountains to find Shanzhen, wild vegetables, earth vegetables The introduction of "Jianghu Cuisine" and "Nongjia Tucai" will enable customers to eat thousands of yuan of swallow-winged abalone in the restaurant, and can also eat tens of dollars of affordable home-cooked food, the price is even lower than that of popular restaurants. . In order to change the deserted situation of the weekend, I recruited business from the society and started a wedding banquet. Moreover, I also made a point on the name. The hotel is called Xinliang Hotel. When I advertised, I said it as a female + a good bride, a good + a groom, and the hotel is a hotel for the bride and groom. At the same time, it provides nearly 10 free projects than other hotel wedding banquets. Soon, weekends became the most popular time for the hotel.
Over the years, the friends around me who can do business are not much, they always sigh: business is too difficult to do, shopping malls are sinister! I can't say anything, but I know in my heart: If your ambition is not too big, if you do it honestly, if you are willing to suffer, if you talk about the amount, the business can grow bigger.
A friend said: "If someone says you are fine, you must do it; if others say you are embarrassed, you must be big." This is what I said in my heart. After doing business for so many years, I did it.
