Chapter 506 It's almost time to open a branch! (Please guarantee the end of the monthly pass)
April 30, Saturday.
Pei Qian had lunch and strolled to the hosting gym.
I told Zhang Yuan before that I wanted to help the club find a coach, but where to find this coach... Pei Qian really didn't have a clue.
Professional e-sports coaches definitely can’t do it.
Because GoG is still an emerging game, although Pei Qian heard that some old clubs are also planning GoG branches, overall, it is not popular enough and formality is out of the question.
In other words, in the initial stage, everyone’s level is still very low.
Because if a club wants to open a branch for a certain game, it must first investigate whether the game can be popular in the country for a long time.
If you just open a branch and invest resources to start training, but the game dies and the branch can only be disbanded, isn't that all your hard work in vain?
Currently gog and ioi are at war with each other. The idea of many clubs is to pick the winner of these two games. Just one branch of these two emerging moba games is enough.
Therefore, even the teams that have formed a gog division are still noobs pecking each other.
At this time, a professional coach, even a not-so-excellent professional coach, can significantly improve the team.
Although Zhang Yuan doesn't know much about e-sports, at least he is not stupid, and the coach he finds will probably not be too bad.
If coupled with Mr. Pei's mysterious luck, an SSR accidentally pops up among the players or coaches...
The consequences would be unimaginable.
Therefore, Pei Qian must find a way to find a coach that satisfies him while leaving Zhang Yuan speechless.
Um……
It’s so difficult!
Pei Qian felt a little nervous thinking about it, but fortunately, he had agreed with Zhang Yuan before that the candidate would be found within two weeks, so there was no need to worry too much.
Arriving at the door of the hosting gym, Pei Qian stepped in.
It was also the weekend, but there were obviously fewer people in the gym than the last time I came.
Pei Qian was stunned for a moment, then he understood what was going on and couldn't help but feel ecstatic.
Many of last week's customers have been persuaded to leave!
Because of the special charging model of managed gyms, many people do not need to hesitate when signing up for membership. After all, the remaining balance is refundable.
But these people may not necessarily be able to strictly follow the planned training plan and stick to it.
Once these people cannot persist, they will be "refunded" and will not be able to join again in the short term.
As a result, a group of customers were successfully dissuaded!
Although that notice board did attract a group of customers, and some people did become members, but in the face of the rules of the managed gym, what's the use if you can't stick to it?
Pei Qian couldn't help but feel a little proud of his wisdom.
In addition, compared with last week, there have been some subtle changes in the managed gym.
The number of permanent service personnel in the gym has reached three.
Originally there was only one person at the front desk who was responsible for distributing bracelets and receiving reception. When the coaches had nothing to do, they would also make a guest appearance in the reception and guidance work.
Now, the service staff has also been expanded. They also work in shifts, and there are three service staff permanently stationed in the gym.
A front desk is mainly responsible for reception work, such as registering customer information, distributing towels, bracelets, water, etc.
An administrator is responsible for daily company business, such as coaching schedules, docking with Moyu takeout, etc.
A planner is responsible for arranging schedules, developing training plans, analyzing current customer information in the gym, etc.
Of course, the division of labor between these three positions is not so clear, and they sometimes help each other.
"Mr. Pei." Pei Qian was the first to see him at the front desk.
"Hello, Mr. Pei." It was noon, and the administrator was working with the two coaches to arrange today's fitness meal.
"Mr. Pei." The planner was typing the keyboard carefully on the laptop in the rest area. After seeing Pei Qian, he stood up and nodded in greeting.
Pei Qian showed a smile and nodded.
The reason why I have a lot of expressions towards this planner is because...the true identity of this planner is that he is an undercover agent and one of the eighteen people in charge of compensation!
In private, Guan Qiansheng calls Pei Qian "senior".
In public places, you still have to be called "Mr. Pei".
Otherwise, wouldn't it be revealing the truth and hinting that there is such a mysterious department...
The positions in the gym are all on a rotating basis. Although this student is an on-campus student, he does not have many courses, and the managed gym is within two steps of Handong University, so he is still qualified for this part of his job.
This position of managed fitness planner is not available in other gyms. This is because the mechanism of managed gyms is different from other gyms.
In order to reduce the passenger flow during peak periods, Guo Licheng suggested to Pei Qian that customers should make reservations by themselves, control the number of people in the gym at the same time, and make preliminary arrangements for each customer's time from the beginning, such as
It is found that there are particularly many customers on Thursday, so if there are customers who want to come on Thursday, we will not be able to receive them unless the time is changed.
There is still some time before it is developed, and this time can only be done manually by planners.
However, since the number of people in the gym is relatively small now, which is far from the limit of the gym's capacity, it will not delay anything.
At present, the position of planner is at most a preliminary arrangement, and does not need to be specific to a certain time period on a certain day.
Pei Qian arranged for this Guan Qiansheng to serve as a planner, mainly to let him have the most accurate information about the gym and always know how far the gym's current number of people is from profitability.
The first regular meeting on health care will not be held until next Saturday, but Pei Qian can't wait.
He pretended to be nonchalant and greeted everyone, then came and sat down next to the Guan Shusheng.
Although there were so many strangers, Pei Qian forgot his name, but it didn't matter, as long as he remembered which department he was an undercover agent.
"How far is the gym from becoming profitable now?" Pei Qian asked casually in a chatting tone.
The Guan Shusheng replied seriously: "Mr. Pei, based on the current daily expenses of the gym, without taking into account the profits from fish takeaways, it would take an average of about 200 visits per day to recover the cost."
"If you take into account equipment depreciation, daily maintenance, and also need to obtain a certain amount of profit and recover the initial investment in fitness equipment as soon as possible, then 300 people per day is a better number."
"Our current number is... in the twenties."
"Even during the peak period, the utilization rate of the entire gym is less than a quarter."
Pei Qian was very satisfied with this answer.
Look, he is indeed a supervisor trained by me. His reporting work is clean and neat, without any unnecessary information.
Pei Qian nodded approvingly: "Not bad, keep up the good work."
The current situation is still far from being profitable, which is good news. Pei Qian thought about it, and he could almost consider opening a branch.
He continued to stroll inside and saw Guo Licheng who was furiously lifting irons in the strength training area.
I don't know if it's my imagination, but Guo Licheng seems to be a lot bigger than when he came last week.
Pei Qian was very satisfied with this.
This Guo Licheng is very obedient!
In the past, he was asked to practice hard and strive to be bigger than all the coaches. In this way, he would have no energy to engage in fancy marketing activities, and the gym would not make money.
Guo Licheng is indeed training hard, and his muscles don't lie.
Seeing Mr. Pei coming, Guo Licheng quickly put the barbell away and stood up.
"Mr. Pei! I am..."
Just as Guo Licheng was about to explain, Pei Qian raised his hand to stop him.
"You are doing a great job. As the store manager and signature of the entire gym, your figure must be the best to attract customers! Therefore, you must not relax and continue to persevere!"
"I came here today to ask, you know, are there any gyms like this that are better decorated and larger? Especially those near Moyu Internet Cafe or the offices of various departments of Tenda."
"Oh, by the way, there should be one near Mingyun Villa too."
Guo Licheng was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Pei, do you want to study and study, or..."
Pei Qian smiled slightly: "Of course I want to open a branch!"
Guo Licheng was at a loss.
ha?
There are only a few students in this gym now, and the money earned is not even a fraction of the loss. Why should we open a branch?
And judging from what Mr. Pei means, it’s not just a restaurant?
Pei Qian raised his hand and signaled him to stop: "I've thought about it twice. Just give me the list of suitable gyms. I'll arrange for people to negotiate and see how many are willing to transfer."
"Then I will trouble you to continue preparing fitness equipment for the branch, recruiting people, etc."
Guo Licheng opened his mouth and wanted to persuade him again, but seeing Mr. Pei's resolute attitude, he had no choice but to nod: "Okay Mr. Pei, I understand."
"Uh...Mr. Pei, what were the rules for site selection you just mentioned?"
Pei Qian repeated: "In this batch, we will open three to five branches. Some gyms will definitely not be willing to transfer, so you try to give me ten addresses. One of them must be near Mingyun Villa, and the others must be near Mingyun Villa."
Moyu Internet Cafe or near the offices of other Tenda business departments.”
The reason for choosing this location is, on the one hand, to better ensure the supply of fitness meals, and on the other hand, to provide benefits to employees.
Pei Qian has never forgotten that the two projects of hosting the gym and the sloth apartment are, on the one hand, to lose money, and on the other hand, they are also to provide more benefits to employees.
You don't make any money in the first place, and then you use employee benefits to squeeze out your own profits. It is simply double happiness.
The observation period for this flagship store has come to an end, and the current situation is relatively optimistic. Although there are some customers, it is far from profitable.
In this case, we can almost bring in our own employees one after another.
As for why it needs to be done one after another, in installments and in batches?
Because the system has limitations in this regard, whether it is a sloth apartment or a shared gym, the benefits provided to employees must be controlled within a certain range.
For example, if the Sloth Apartment has 100 rooms, only 30 of them can be used as staff dormitories.
The same goes for restaurants and gyms, which can be used as employee benefits, but there is a prerequisite, which is to ensure that other consumers can also use them and cannot be completely exclusive to employee benefits, and this ratio is strictly limited.
Therefore, if he wants to develop a fitness plan for all employees, Pei Qian will have to open many gyms.
Fortunately, as long as this thing can lose money, Mr. Pei will have enough motivation!
