"Xiaotian, have you ever thought about how to sell the goods produced if the factory is built?"
In Lu Ruya's mind, production is not a big problem; the real big problem is sales.
During this period, Lu Ruya actually put all his efforts into increasing sales.
In the previous planned economy, as long as we produced according to the task volume, there would be no failure to sell.
But now, a lot of goods need to be digested by themselves, and the pressure on Lu Ruya, the deputy director in charge of sales, has increased sharply.
Su Xiaotian said that she wanted to set up a factory. Lu Ruya was worried about sales, which was not unnecessary.
Little did he know that the reason why he felt so stressed was that the sales staff in the factory had been waiting for others to feed them for years and had no idea how to serve the bowls themselves.
Such people's philosophy remains unchanged and they don't take the initiative to sell at all. It's strange that their sales can keep up.
Su Xiaotian was still very grateful to Lu Ruya for giving such sincere advice.
"Director Lu, thank you."
Lu Ruya received a thank you inexplicably, and was surprised. He waved his hand and said: "Just a quick reminder, Xiaotian, sales are really difficult. There are still difficulties in factories like ours. If your new factory is produced, it will not be sold.
What should I do if I get out?"
Speaking of this, Lu Ruya was worried first.
Su Xiaotian couldn't help but laugh.
"Director Lu, there are two stores for similar products in the northwest, one in the provincial capital and one in the county. The sales volume is good. I believe that as long as the factory is built, it will still be very competitive."
Lu Ruya wanted to say that opening a shop is different from a factory, when he heard Su Xiaotian speak again.
"However, some marketing measures will be needed at that time. As long as the marketing is in place, sales will definitely open up."
This was the first time Su Xiaotian said the word marketing means, and it was the first time Lu Ruya heard it.
When Lu Ruya heard this new term, he found it very interesting.
marketing techniques?
Although I don’t understand what marketing means is, why do you think it is so high-end?
"Marketing method?" Lu Ruya muttered.
"Yes, we can't just sit back and wait. We must try every means to sell the products. If necessary, we can use small gifts, discounts, etc., as long as the purpose of promotion is achieved."
In a few years, all kinds of strange marketing methods will appear, but at this time, they are not there yet.
Su Xiaotian felt that the business she wanted to do might be able to use this method, but Qili Silk Factory produced silk and could not give away silk.
It's not that I can't give it away, the price of silk is too high, and it would be too costly to use it as a small gift.
I don’t know if we can have more in-depth cooperation with silk factories in the future, such as buying silk and getting braised eggs for free.
This thought just flashed through Su Xiaotian's mind.
The factory hasn't even been built yet, and workers haven't been recruited yet. It's really too early to say this.
If that day really comes, it won't be too late to discuss this issue again.
Su Xiaotian has never been weird, she can reach cooperation with the silk factory.
Su Xiaotian's words made Lu Ruya fall into deep thought.
Promotional?
Or even give someone a gift?
This doesn’t seem impossible, but why do I always feel like there’s something wrong?
Just when the two of them were in a daze, Factory Director Liu came with his people.
The other person was a man in his fifties, and he looked chubby, but Su Xiaotian could tell that the other person's eyes were very sharp, and he seemed to be shrewd.
"Director Liu, you're here!" Lu Ruya reacted and hurriedly put on a smile, showing a standard smile and stretched out his hand.
After shaking hands, Director Liu introduced the man next to Lu Ruya.
"This Director Du is the director of the credit department of the fifth branch of our Beijing Bank. If you want a loan, you must go to Director Du."
"Hello, Director Du, I have long admired your name!" Lu Ruya said very politely.
Director Du still showed a little arrogance at this time, but not very arrogant.
It's not that he doesn't want to be arrogant, it's just that credit work is not taken seriously and he is used to keeping a low profile.
"Hello, Director Lu, I heard that you are planning to get a loan. I came here today just for the sake of Director Liu!"
Su Xiaotian smiled lightly after hearing this.
"Then I really have to thank Factory Director Liu. Director Du, Director Liu and I have been old friends for many years!"
"Lao Liu and I have been good brothers for many years!" Director Du had a little smile on his face.
"Let's go to the elegant room first. The food in Yiming Pavilion is worth tasting." Lu Ruya greeted warmly, as if he was the host.
Director Du smiled and said: "I have heard about this restaurant, Yiming Pavilion, for a long time, but I have never had time to come and taste it. Today is the right time!"
"There are some signature dishes that are very good. Please review them later!"
After several people entered, Su Xiaotian asked the waiter to bring tea inside, and then walked into the private room herself.
Seeing Su Xiaotian enter, Lu Ruya took the initiative to introduce: "Director Du, this is Comrade Su Xiaotian, the senior translator of our Qili Silk Factory, and the small owner of Yiming Pavilion."
Director Du really didn't understand why Lu Ruya bothered to introduce a little girl, but he really didn't take Su Xiaotian into his heart. He just nodded slightly as a greeting.
"Director Du, nice to meet you!" Su Xiaotian showed a standard smile, neither humble nor overbearing.
Seeing that Director Du didn't take Su Xiaotian seriously at all, Lu Ruya could only speak.
"Director Du, I invite you here today to help Comrade Su Xiaotian get a loan."
Director Du was shocked when he heard that the loan was requested by this little girl whom he had never paid attention to.
Are you kidding yourself?
How many loans can a little girl get?
They have a task now. The fifth branch's loan task this year is 150,000 yuan.
As of now, it's already July, and he hasn't even completed the amount of 20,000.
This time, Lao Liu came to him and said that someone wanted a loan to build a factory. He was indeed very interested and even came with the goal of completing a task.
But now, they tell themselves, a teenage boy wants a loan.
This is simply the feeling of falling from heaven to hell.
A teenage girl, has she graduated from elementary school? She even asked for a loan?
Even if I really need a loan, how much can I borrow?
The more I thought about it, the uglier Director Du's face became.
Director Du was extremely disappointed, and he even felt as if a big customer who could easily have just flown away.
There is no way, Su Xiaotian is really too young. No one would believe that such a little girl really wants a loan, and a large loan at that.
