Chapter 075
6pm,
I heard the door open and knew that Ziyu had gotten off work and stood at the top of the stairs.
Ziyu put away her bags and prepared to buy groceries and cook.
"It's time to get off work. Wait for a while. I'll finish my work soon. Instead of cooking, I'll go out to eat." I said, "I won't do it anymore. I'll go out to eat. There's good news today. Congratulations."
Ziyu heard the good news and went up to the attic.
"What? Have we concluded a business deal?"
"No, but there is a customer inquiry and we will make an appointment to measure the room the day after tomorrow."
"Really? It's not like signing a contract. Is it worth celebrating?"
"You don't understand? I have confidence in this customer. We have been communicating. I feel hopeful. At least I am the first customer I can meet."
Two days later, I made an appointment with the project manager Zhou Gong to go to the Aquilia community together. Aquilia is in Beicheng, Hezhou, more than 20 kilometers away from the company. A taxi arrived at the community.
Zhou Gong and I walked into the community.
Contact customers via my mobile phone.
"Hey, you guys, I'm from Taiming Decoration Company. We've arrived at Building 9. What's the number of your room?"
"I'm just below Building 9. Are you two people? I saw it."
The customer stood at the entrance of Building 9 and waved.
I also waved my hand.
"Hello, you are so fast." the customer said.
"It's necessary, this is our company's weekly labor." I pointed to the weekly labor and said to the customer.
"Hello! Thank you for your hard work." The customer said, "My house is at 1206. Come on, let's go up."
"Isn't this house only delivered by the developer?" Zhou Gong asked the client.
"Yes, I have only had it for a few days. Each of our brothers bought one set. I will install it first. You will give me a discount when you see it. When my brother's house is finished, I will also install it for you."
"Of course, don't worry, I will definitely satisfy you!" I said.
The three-person elevator went upstairs, and the customer opened room 1209. I compared the prepared floor plans and checked the dimensions, and Zhou Gong also took out the house inspection tools.
"The quality of the developer's house is quite good, and the structure of the house is also reasonable. There should be basically no major changes, right?" Zhou Gong said to the customer.
I took out the record book and asked the client: "Ms. Zhang, do you have any other requirements?"
The customer looked at our professional process and clearly recognized it very much.
"There is no need to change it. I have explained it on QQ. You can give me a budget and I will compare it."
"No problem, I can give it to you tomorrow. It will definitely be within your budget."
"Okay, let's talk. A friend introduced a decoration company and we have made a quotation." The customer said, "But the designer is too young, so I am a little worried, so after consulting online, I feel that you are quite professional."
"Yes, after all, it is your own house, and the decoration must be perfect. I have been doing decoration for more than ten years, and we have more than 20 years of experience in the work." I said.
Zhou Gong packed up his tools, the two said goodbye to the customer and called a car back to the company.
Zhou Gong asked me, "Mr. Qian, what is the customer's budget?"
I didn't answer directly, but asked Zhou Gong.
"You, Zhou Gong, are also an old revolutionary. How much do you think it will cost to decorate these more than 90 square meters of simple hard furnishings?"
Zhou Gong didn't think twice and answered immediately, "For laying bricks, painting walls, adding sanitary equipment and cabinets, about 60,000 to 70,000 yuan should be enough."
"It's about the same as my estimate. I'll try to sign it. We'll cooperate. You'll be responsible for the construction. I'll make some money and you'll make some money too. We'll make less profit on the first order just to gain popularity!"
Zhou Gong nodded, fully agreeing.
Zhou Gong is the project manager I selected on 58.com a few days ago. He communicated through meetings and was thorough. He is a carpenter and a native of Hedong. He is 52 years old. He has been doing decoration construction in Kyoto before. Due to family reasons, he returned to Zhouzhou for development a few years ago.
He is my ideal candidate for construction project manager.
I heard that Zhou Gong agreed to approve it, and I felt that I had chosen the right person.
"Gong Zhou, could you please go to the building materials market and bring me some samples of decorative materials to the company? When the customer signs the order, the sample must be finalized. Mid-range materials will be fine."
"No problem, I'll go there in the afternoon and get the company and some related albums."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. I have been selling building materials for more than ten years. I know the brand and price, but I need to get some samples and let the company provide customers with choices."
"Yes, if the quotation is clear and clear, the construction will not be frivolous."
At 10 o'clock in the evening, I had completed the layout drawing for Aquilia's customer and made a quotation, so after reviewing it, I contacted Ms. Zhang on QQ.
Hello, Ms. Zhang, are you there?
Here I am.
The layout of the drawings is ready, I will send it to you right away to see if it looks like what you requested?
Okay, hard work! The efficiency is quite high.
It's necessary. To be honest, my wife is from Hezhou and the company has just opened. Although the scale is small, the work is absolutely professional.
It can be seen that we choose not to pay attention to the company, but only look at the specific construction workers. Big companies may not necessarily perform good construction, and of course we will not choose a company if there is no company.
5 minutes later, I received a thumbs up emoticon on QQ and received a reply:
That’s it, where’s the quote?
I already have a plan in mind.
Please understand that I cannot send you the quotation. This is a business rule. I can tell you the overall quotation, which is 105,800 yuan.
Oh, I understand! Is it so high? It’s beyond my budget.
This is the full project quote, including everything except home appliances and curtains.
Oh, where are the lamps?
The lamps included are the ones you choose. They are gifts, 10% of the contract price. Considering that you can promote your community, I can give you a discount.
Okay, let me think about it, how much discount can you offer?
You can go to the company for an interview for details, and it will definitely be within your budget.
Okay, my husband and I will discuss it and contact you.
At 10 o'clock in the morning the next day, my phone rang. It was an Aquilia customer who asked for the company's specific address and wanted to go to the company with my husband to discuss the decoration matter.
Today is Sunday, and Ziyu is resting at home. I immediately contacted Zhou Gong and notified him to come to the company to gather popularity.
In half an hour, the weekly workers arrive at the company.
An hour later, the customer Ms. Zhang and her husband also arrived at the company.
"Hello! Please come in."
Ziyu stood up to greet him, and then poured a cup of tea.
Zhou Gong and I were upstairs. When we saw the customer coming in, we immediately went upstairs to welcome him.
"Your company is working today and there is no day off."
"I'm not working. The two designers are off today. How can I take a rest?" I said against my will to dispel the customer's concerns.
"Oh, the company is not big, but quite sophisticated."
After sitting down for a moment, I clicked on the computer monitor to see Ms. Zhang’s quotation form.
"Look, you quoted dozens of projects, and I clearly explained the construction technology and material brands."
"Yes, it must be written clearly so that we can rest assured."
"Look, this is it. Mr. Zhou, please bring the materials and let Ms. Zhang and her husband take a look."
The weekly workers cooperated tacitly and immediately took the prepared materials and brought them up.
I added, "The materials are mid-range, the quality is good, and the price is affordable."
"Yeah, we don't need high-end brands, we focus on cost-effectiveness."
The two customers went through almost all the materials and finally discussed the quotation.
"Mr. Qian, do you think the price can be discounted? We also compared it with several companies. One company quoted a price similar to yours, and gave me a 20% discount."
"I believe this, but this is the reason why I didn't send you the quotation. There is too much vicious competition. Every company, especially the guerrillas, can do construction no matter how low the price is, but the construction quality and workmanship will definitely not be the same.
ensure."
"We understand that there are too many hidden rules for decoration, so we considered it comprehensively and felt that you are more professional, so we sincerely came to your company."
"Do you decide today?"
"Of course, we will decide if the price is right. We also hope to move as soon as possible."
Chapter completed!
