E-commerce of hotel supplies

Provide a one-stop hotel supplies procurement platform for the hotel industry through e-commerce. 1, effectively put an end to the phenomenon that purchasing personnel take kickbacks. Online prices are transparent and can be queried online, and bosses can directly monitor the whole procurement process. 2, the price is more reasonable, because you don't have to go through the distribution agent process of the physical store, which greatly saves the cost. From manufacturers to hotels, intermediate costs can be used to give hotel discounts, which is also the core value of opposing profiteering through e-commerce. 3. You can purchase centrally, or you can set up your own purchasing database, which can be connected with the one-stop purchasing platform to provide inventory early warning reminders and effectively prevent inventory risks. 4. Through the one-stop platform, multiple suppliers can be screened at the same time, saving time and effort. I have a headache that I haven't established a trustworthy purchasing team. 6. It can not only effectively control the hotel procurement cost, but also focus on the hotel's core business and enhance the hotel service and brand power.

How to develop small and medium-sized enterprises

The rise of e-commerce has brought great impact to traditional sales, and also brought hope to many enterprises. Small and medium-sized enterprises have joined the e-commerce team, and hotel supplies companies are not far behind.

You can't completely ignore it, and you can't completely rely on it.

For e-commerce, some enterprises are dismissive, some enterprises are full of confidence, and offline market channels are not developed at all.

Small and medium-sized enterprises will become more and more passive in the future market competition if they don't do e-commerce; On the contrary, if we completely ignore offline market development and public relations, we will lose the opportunity to become bigger and stronger, especially in the hotel supplies industry, which mostly involves engineering orders, and offline negotiation is essential. Therefore, it is best to walk on two legs and combine online and offline development, otherwise it will be unstable.

The supply should be sufficient and stable.

Because the hotel supplies industry spans dozens of industries, there are thousands of products, and most of them are concentrated in the hotel supplies wholesale market. Due to the high store rent and huge sample investment, it is difficult for offline wholesalers to complete all hotel supplies. E-commerce has low operating cost and can effectively provide one-stop hotel supplies procurement service.

The difficulty for hotel supplies enterprises to do e-commerce lies in whether the supply of goods is stable and whether the cooperative relationship with suppliers is stable. If the cooperation with suppliers is unstable and customers can't get what they want, one-stop procurement will become empty talk.

Investing in e-commerce talents is more important than investing in money.

I have seen a hotel supplies company, which invested hundreds of thousands when e-commerce just started, and got nothing. I am very disappointed and confused about e-commerce and have never tried it again. When e-commerce is in full swing, many enterprises complain that e-commerce is useless like this. In fact, they all made the same mistake: they thought that investing in money would pay off, but they didn't know that investing in talents was more important.

Grasp the trend and dare to approach the brand.

There's a chance. Competition multiplies, if you don't advance, you will fall back. E-commerce makes prices more and more transparent, and more and more profits are returned to consumers. Gone are the days when prices and products fought each other. It is a good way to provide good service, especially after-sales service, and strengthen brand building. Although brand building cannot be achieved overnight, not highlighting its uniqueness will only lead to repeated decline in vicious price competition.

The author believes that at the moment when the branding of hotel supplies industry is not strong, if hotel supplies enterprises want to take the brand line, they must first grasp the industry trend, so that they can easily walk in the forefront.
