Lin Mai had no idea that so many things would happen after she left Liuduqiao Shopping Mall.
She rode her bicycle to Unique Clothing Factory.
As soon as he sat down in his office, before he could take a breath, Tao Zhiyun walked in.
Tell her that a reporter has come and wants to interview her.
Lin Mai has something urgent to deal with, so how can he have time for an interview now?
So he said to Tao Zhiyun: "You ask that journalist comrade to wait, I am busy now."
As soon as she finished speaking, Niu Lili walked in with her head held high. Just as she was about to speak, she was shocked when she saw Lin Mai.
He pointed at her and said, "Are you the director of Unique Clothing Factory?"
"What? I'm not worthy?" Lin Mai didn't expect that the reporter Tao Zhiyun spoke of was actually Niu Lili.
She smiled friendly at Niu Lili and said very politely: "It turns out that the reporter who wants to interview me is you.
But I’m really sorry, I have important work to deal with now, can I accept the interview later?”
Niu Lili nodded, very arrogantly, and said: "It's fine if it's you, but I won't give you this face if it's someone else.
It’s not just you, the interviewees, whose time is valuable, my time is also valuable.”
Lin Mai rolled his eyes silently in his heart and cursed: Sister, it was you who interviewed someone else, not someone else who asked you to interview him. You have no right to do it.
But she just thought about it in her heart.
Journalists in this era are just jerks!
She laughed along and said flatteringly: "Yes, yes, thank you reporter Niu Da for giving me this face.
You go and sit in the conference room first, and I will be interviewed by the Niu Da reporter as soon as I finish my work."
Niu Lili then wore a pair of high-heeled sandals and followed Tao Zhiyun to the conference room.
When Lin Mai saw the two of them going out, she also left the office and went to the salesman's office.
Ren Baozhu had just finished a meeting with the salesmen, and they were all preparing to take the shopping guides they had just recruited yesterday afternoon to their respective stores.
Seeing Lin Mai walking in, they all called out: "Hello, Director Lin."
Lin Mai replied "Hello."
Ren Baozhu said to her happily: "Director Lin, I have good news for you.
Jiangcheng Shopping Mall has realigned the location of our store, and it’s much better than the previous location!”
Lin Mai wrote lightly: "I know, I forced Manager Kong to adjust."
Ren Baozhu's eyes widened in admiration: "You are so awesome. How did you make that tricky guy change his mind?"
"Now is not the time to talk about this." Lin Mai actually didn't want to say it.
She asked, "I would like to know the location of the stores that other shopping malls gave us. Is there any difference between the locations that Jiangcheng Mall gave us before?"
Ren Baozhu and the salesmen all shook their heads: "No."
"How does it compare with Liuduqiao Shopping Mall?"
Ren Baozhu thought about it seriously: "The location is about the same, not in the corner anyway."
Lin Mai nodded: "That's good."
She ordered several salesmen: "You will rush to the stores you are responsible for later and raise the prices of all clothing by five yuan."
Ren Baozhu was stunned for a few seconds: "Why did you suddenly raise the price by such a large amount?
If we increase the price by such a large amount, we will have no price advantage.
Coupled with the poor location of our store, I'm afraid sales will drop off a cliff."
Lin Mai is very confident: "Sales will definitely not drop off a cliff.
There is a ten yuan gap between our current price and the price of Ximan Clothing.
Even if it increases by five yuan, it is still much cheaper than them, and it still has a big price advantage.
As long as our store is not located in a corner, and we arrange shopping guides from today on, the flow of people will definitely increase a lot.
As long as the flow of people increases, sales will not fall off a cliff.
Besides, even the prices of state-owned clothing have increased significantly. If we don't increase the price, the price will be the same as that of state-owned clothing.
How can we take the high-end route with such ordinary prices?"
Ren Baozhu was silent for a moment and asked: "Why don't you wait until today is over to see how effective the shopping guide is before raising the price tomorrow?"
"We can't wait until tomorrow." Lin Mai patiently explained, "Today's shopping guide can attract a lot of traffic.
Consumers have seen the price today. If we increase the price by five yuan tomorrow, it will cause disgust among consumers.
When we thought our business was good, we started to raise prices.
When we raise prices when business is bad, even if consumers cannot accept it, we can explain it.
It’s because raw materials have risen so much that others have risen, and we can’t stand it anymore, so we have to raise prices, and consumers can easily feel relieved and accept it.”
Ren Baozhu heard what she said made sense and nodded in agreement.
If you want to raise the price, you have to change the price tag.
Ren Baozhu immediately arranged for a salesperson to rush to the state-owned factory that produces trademark price tags to make a batch of price tags.
Lin Mai sighed after looking at it. This era was so backward that even the price tags had to be made by the manufacturer.
How can it be like a few decades later when you can buy a small price tag machine and be able to mark the price yourself, which is very convenient.
She saw that Ren Baozhu only equipped the shopping guides with uniform clothing - a pure white mini dress, but did not wear any ribbons for them.
So I asked a salesperson to go to the factory to order a ribbon urgently.
The ribbon should be bright red, with the yellow words "Unico Clothing" printed on it.
While everyone was waiting for the ribbons and price tags, Tao Zhiyun ran in and said ecstatically: "Good news, great news!"
Ren Baozhu smiled and asked: "What's the great news?"
"Just now, our promoters in major shopping malls borrowed the mall's phone number to tell us the good news.
All shopping malls have adjusted our store to a good location, and business has improved a lot!"
Everyone immediately cheered.
When they calmed down, everyone looked puzzled.
Why did the major shopping malls suddenly stop cracking down on Unique and became friendly?
Ren Baozhu asked everyone suspiciously: "Tell me, how come all the major shopping malls suddenly move in unison and give us a good seat?"
Everyone shook their heads, saying they couldn't guess the reason.
Ren Baozhu turned to look at Lin Mai: "Did you do it?"
Lin Mai shook his head: "It's not me, I don't have that much energy."
Tao Zhiyun guessed: "Could it be your professor boyfriend?"
"It can't be him. I didn't even mention these things to him."
Lin Mai pondered and said, "Maybe the provincial party committee secretary came forward, otherwise those big shopping malls would not be able to give us good positions uniformly."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Ren Baozhu asked: "Since the location of our store is good, do we need a shopping guide?"
When the shopping guide girls heard this, they all looked at Lin Mai nervously.
They don't want to be fired as soon as they are hired.
Lin Mai nodded: "If you use multiple promotional methods, your sales will reach a higher level.
After this wave of sales is over, all shopping guides who have performed well will stay and be trained as salespeople."
Several shopping guide girls looked happy.
I originally worked part-time, but now that I have the opportunity to continue working at Unique Clothing, I no longer have to be an unemployed young man.
It's very shameful to be an unemployed young man these days.
After more than half an hour, I got all the customized price tags and ribbons.
Ren Baozhu handed out the price tags and ribbons, and then asked the salesmen and shopping guides to set off.
Lin Mai then went to the conference room, where Niu Lili was still waiting for her.
