Why start a business from a young age?

Small business is looked down upon by many people, thinking that it is difficult to succeed in a small business. However, they don’t have much money in their hands, so they cannot afford to invest in big projects. Secondly, there are seniors and juniors, so it is not a sure-fire project. , I don’t dare to invest randomly even if I have money. The cost of small business is small, the risk is small, and it doesn’t matter if you lose money. If you are willing to use your brain, you might be able to become a big boss, because there are no small businesses in this world. Today I will tell you a story about making a fortune from a small business.

Two years ago, I started by selling two boxes of snake oil rheumatism and pain relieving ointment for 10 yuan. Although I only made 2 yuan per box, I sold more than 20,000 boxes in 13 months, making the first profit since I was laid off. Pot of gold. After I tasted the benefits, I specifically looked for small commodities to sell. Now, I have earned tens of thousands of yuan with a small gadget. Once, I accidentally saw a TV shopping brochure, which contained something called a garlic peeler. "Innovative product, a must-have for every household. It peels the garlic cleanly in just a few seconds. It only peels the garlic without hurting your hands. It sells for 28 yuan each."

Hey, everyone knows that garlic is delicious. The skin is difficult to peel, so peeling garlic with your fingers is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and can irritate your eyes and fingers. Some hotels and guesthouses even hire helpers to peel garlic and pick side dishes. If this thing is really that effective, the market has nothing to say about it. I transferred money and bought a few. A few days later, I was heartbroken when I received the items. It’s so simple, does it work?

I ran into the kitchen and stuffed a few garlic cloves in, pushed it back and forth, and heard a few clicks. The garlic that came out was peeled cleanly without any damage. Try again and again, and the effect is It's really strange. I think there is a business opportunity. If the retail price is set at five or six yuan, more people will buy it. So I contacted several suppliers, but they were either expensive or of poor quality. Finally, I found the manufacturer, Changsha Jingrui Company Oil Brush Factory. After asking about it, I found that the manufacturer's garlic peelers can be wholesaled or distributed as agents, and the price is also low. If it is suitable, you can start with a few hundred yuan for trial sales.

To be on the safe side, I bought a small box and when the goods arrived, I gave a dozen to relatives, friends and several restaurants for trial use. As a result, nine out of ten people came up with the idea. After spending a few days doing market research and consumer positioning, I placed a table and a sign in the vegetable market, saying, "Peel garlic in two seconds without hurting your fingers." , no need for electricity, you can see how magical it is, 6 yuan each, 2 for 10 yuan." Then he demonstrated on the spot, each garlic head was easily peeled "naked" in an instant, clean and fast.

There were three levels of onlookers inside and outside. After watching it, they all marveled and applauded. "Buy when you are free, use when you are in a hurry, it is difficult to get good things again if you miss them," a shouting voice came from the loudspeaker. For a time, there were a lot of buyers. Although I have extensive experience in selling small items, more than a dozen garlic peelers were taken away by "snatchers". In one morning, all 180 garlic peelers were sold out. Three days later, 2,000 garlic peelers were shipped into the market. In order to promote the garlic peeler, I stood in the sun and shouted every day. My mouth was dry, my throat was hoarse, and I drank ten bottles of herbal tea a day.

In order to expand sales, I thought about changing the sales method, setting up a marketing network, and allowing small products to be sold at outlets. I selected 20 stores, supermarkets, grocery stores, and vegetable stalls in the county as distribution points. Order 50 pieces for free and put up an eye-catching signboard. The dealer will pay after the goods are sold. Although you make less money this way, you can order more products in a wider range of areas, sales will increase rapidly, it will be more convenient for people to buy, and you will be able to do business in the long run. It’s not that hard for me. At the same time, I set up a dealer in each of the 18 towns and villages so that the products can quickly cover every corner of the villages and towns. In this way, I changed from a vendor who set up a stall and yelled, to a "hands-off shopkeeper" who only answered phone calls, delivered goods, collected money and checked out, and became a regional general distributor of garlic peelers.

As the saying goes: "When wealth comes, the door panel cannot hold it up." Six months later, my delivery truck changed from a two-wheeled motorcycle to a Changan small noodle model worth more than 20,000 yuan. At present, the manufacturer has developed the third generation product and applied for a national patent. Its shape is the first elliptical flat eccentric design, which increases the friction and adsorption force of the product. Both ends are designed with reverse bevels, making it easy to use and beautiful. .

It is equipped with a force-increasing thread to increase the strength and speed of peeling garlic. The texture is shallow grooves and fine lines after careful design and repeated tests, which does not damage the garlic flesh and is easy to clean. I bought more than 20,000 yuan of goods and prepared to open up a market in another place.

Another successful experience of the small garlic peeler: Don’t be greedy for the big and abandon the small when doing business. The garlic peeler solves a major problem that has always troubled people to peel garlic by hand. The product design and development are in place and close to the customer. Life is therefore hot. Furthermore, the garlic peeler is reasonably priced and in line with consumer psychology.

If I sell one for 10 yuan, maybe only 3 of 10 people will buy it. If I sell it for 6 yuan, 8 people will buy it. The price of a pack of cigarettes is affordable to everyone and can be used by every household, so it is expected that the sales will be strong. I sincerely advise readers who start a business and seek wealth not to envy billionaires who have astonishing amounts of money in their accounts. They started from small businesses and gradually grew and grew. Small things can create wealth and produce billionaires.
