Two Thousand Two Hundred and Fifty One: The Naive Dream of an Entrepreneur Novice
【Corrected version】
After hearing Lin Wei's words, Wu Tong, who was still flexing his teeth, was stunned for a moment, and then sat down with a frustrated look on his face.
"I'm so busy that I don't have time. I'm busy with studies and starting a business. I only sleep a few hours a day. I'm really busy." As he said this, Wu Tong's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
, and golden beans begin to fall.
Seeing this, Lin Wei quickly took out a tissue and handed it over, then rubbed her head and comforted her softly.
As for Wu Hao, seeing this girl crying, he felt a little distressed in his heart. However, he still pretended to be unmoved and said: "Tell me, how did you get tricked into opening a cafe?"
"I have not been fooled." Wu Tong retorted, then took a deep breath twice, and then slowly said to the two of them: "There is a cafe next to our school. The business itself was quite good, but then it suddenly stopped.
I know for some reason, the boss suddenly quit the job. We were very sorry after seeing the news. The last few sisters discussed it, how about we sell it and try to start a business.
After we came up with this idea, we continued to communicate and negotiate with the boss and landlord, and finally we each paid a sum of money to buy the cafe. Then we changed it into a couples-themed cafe."
"How much did you spend?" Wu Hao asked immediately after hearing her introduction.
"Not much, probably around 300,000 yuan, I hold 40% of the shares." Wu Tong said with a proud look on his face.
"Humph!" Wu Hao rolled his eyes at this innocent little girl, and then motioned for her to continue.
"How is the business of the cafe now?" Lin Wei asked with a smile upon seeing this.
"The business is okay, I can barely maintain operations, but it will be difficult to get back the money." Wu Tong said weakly, feeling a little frustrated.
Hearing Wu Tong's words, Lin Wei showed a smile on her face, nodded her head and said in appreciation: "That's not bad, at least it didn't go bankrupt at a loss. It's already amazing that you were able to achieve such results just from the beginning.
A cafe like this takes time to run, and there won’t be much improvement in a short period of time.”
Wu Hao glanced at the girl, and then poured cold water on her: "You haven't figured out why this boss, who was doing a good job, suddenly quit and was in a hurry to transfer the store, and then foolishly took it over in a hurry, and suffered a loss.
Bar."
"We have made a small profit." Wu Tong said a little unconvinced.
Wu Hao smiled when he saw this and said: "That's all. If it can really make money, the boss won't be in a hurry to transfer it. To put it simply, the boss sees the development bottleneck of this coffee shop or in other words
At the end of the day, I thought that the business of the cafe could no longer develop or improve, so I decided to stop the loss as soon as possible. In this way, not only would I not lose money, I might even make a small profit.
Now it seems that this boss has made a lot of money from you guys."
After making fun of the girl, Wu Hao continued: "The main consumers around the school are students. There are many rich students now, but the spending power of the vast majority of students is not high. What they pursue is cost-effectiveness. So.
People like you who frequently sell thirty or forty cups of coffee and snacks worth tens of yuan cannot afford to consume them regularly.
Think about it, how many regular customers come to your cafe for daily consumption, and how many of them come for occasional dates or gatherings to talk about things."
Listen, Wu Hao said this. Wu Tong opened her mouth to refute, but after thinking about it for a while, she found nothing to refute, which made her feel frustrated.
"Then what should we do now? We have already acquired this cafe."
After taking a look at the dejected girl, Wu Hao smiled and raised two fingers and said: "Two options are, either, while the business of this cafe is still good, sell it out as soon as possible and stop the loss in time.
Second, if you insist, then while working hard to build a reputation, you should also constantly improve the service quality and launch some products suitable for mass consumption to increase the popularity of the cafe.
In fact, if you have the courage, you can operate at a loss in the first half of the year or even a year. Use a large number of discounts and promotions to increase the popularity of the store and promote yourself. As long as there are more consumers, the store will definitely make profits in the future.
"
"Those little girls must have invested all their private money this time. How can they get the money to continue investing? What kind of bad idea did they come up with?" Lin Wei rolled her eyes at him and said angrily.
Hearing Wu Hao's words, Wu Tong, who was thoughtful, said to Wu Hao and Lin Wei: "Actually, we have been trying to come up with ideas these days. Later, one of our seniors came up with an idea for us.
Suggestion, I think it’s pretty good.
He suggested that we can open this cafe into a 24-hour cafe, provide customers with high-speed Internet, and then open it specifically to schools and nearby universities, as well as students and people in Anxi who have entrepreneurial needs.
It is built into an entrepreneurial incubation center similar to the coffee shop in Beijing Computer City.
In this way, we can rely on these resources to establish ourselves here and gradually develop into a themed cafe with influence throughout Anxi."
"This is a good idea." Lin Wei praised it after hearing this.
Wu Hao also smiled and nodded, but he said: "The idea is good, but it is difficult to implement it. How to get these entrepreneurs to come to your cafe is a big problem, and it cannot be done with just a few offers.
It can be attracted by price or advertising, but it must be something tangible.
The coffee shop in Beijing Computer City developed because it often received elites from various companies and provided a place for these elites to get to know each other after work.
How about you, how do you build such a platform so that entrepreneurs and elites are willing to come to your coffee shop to discuss things."
Hearing Wu Hao's series of questions, Wu Tong was not discouraged. Instead, he smiled and rushed towards him, took his arm and said coquettishly: "So, I'm here to find you. Brother, please help me."
Me!
I invested all my pocket money into this cafe and even lost a few pounds."
"Now that you know how to beg me, why did you do it earlier?" Obviously, Wu Hao didn't buy into Wu Tong's coquettishness.
"Brother, you're the best, please help me." Wu Tong took his arm and continued to coquettishly say: "You don't want your sister to become a business idiot, right? You will lose face if word like this gets out."
"Tch, am I the one who cares about this?" Wu Hao curled his lips and said indifferently.
Seeing that acting coquettishly was useless, Wu Tong immediately turned to Lin Wei and said: "Sister-in-law, let me tell you about my brother's romantic affair in high school. My brother..."
