Chapter 209 Dining out
This is a small two-story shop, and Jiang Ji bought the entire building.
The second floor is not planned to be open this time. After all, there are only toothbrushes and toothpastes, so there is no need to put anything upstairs.
The two of them went up to take a look and found that the space up there was quite large. If new products or high-end products were developed in the future, they could be placed up there.
A sign with yellow letters on a red background was hung outside the small building, with the words "toothpaste" and "toothbrush" written on it in big letters.
There is a Jiang Ji sign hanging on the door, and the shop looks quite presentable.
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin looked around and didn't find any problems. The store was arranged completely according to their suggestions. Aji was quite reliable.
At this moment, Aji had arranged three men to move all the things on the carriage into the store and were putting them on the shelves.
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin also stepped forward to help, but the others didn't dare to let them help, and hurriedly stopped them, saying that the person in charge shouldn't do such a thing.
The two men ignored their dissuasion and started to clean up the things. Seeing that he couldn't persuade them, Aji stopped caring.
They thought that these were what the clerks were supposed to do, and the manager only had to make arrangements. The two men believed that there was strength in numbers, and they did not think that the manager was superior to others.
It took a few people about an hour to pack up and all the goods were put on the shelves.
Not to mention, the originally empty shop immediately looked presentable after being decorated like this.
Although there are only two categories of products, two shelves are filled with them, which looks pretty good.
Especially for people like Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin who have obsessive-compulsive disorder, they have no resistance to such neatly arranged shelves.
After setting up everything, it was around five or six in the afternoon. Zheng Yuan called Aji and the three waiters and planned to take them out for dinner.
The three guys tried their best to refuse, saying they wanted to go home to eat.
Their families all lived in the city, so it was convenient for them to go home. In addition, they were still a little hesitant to eat with the three managers, as they felt that their status was not suitable for eating with them.
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin thought they were embarrassed and directly forced the three boys to follow them.
Opening a business is a big event after all, and having a staff dinner is a must.
Seeing their firm attitude, Aji asked them to go together. The three guys did not refuse anymore, but they were still a little nervous.
After locking the door, they were about to go to the restaurant when several children suddenly ran over from a distance and surrounded Aji.
"Master, can you give us our wages for the past few days?"
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin looked at this group of ragged children and were puzzled.
What did Aji ask them to do?
Aji took out his purse from his pocket and gave five cents to each of them. The children who received the money thanked him hurriedly, then ran away together cheering.
After putting away the money bag, Aji explained to the two people: "Aunt, this is the marketing campaign you mentioned. Our young master had already arranged it according to your ideas when he came back last time. These days we have been spending money to find children everywhere, and let them promote our toothbrushes and toothpastes every day while playing."
Jiang Chengye has strong execution ability.
"How did you make up this jingle?" Zheng Yuan asked as they walked.
She was quite curious about how Jiang Chengye would promote toothpaste and toothbrushes.
"Our master said he is not good at jingles, and he doesn't know toothpaste and toothbrushes as well as the two aunts, so he plans to let you two make one."
"In the market in the south these days, we let the children talk about these toothbrushes and toothpastes. They are the favorites of the nobles in Pingyang City. Jiang Ji will deliver the goods here on the 26th."
"The market in the north is talking about the new and fresh things that the wealthy people in Guangzhou have discovered, and they will be shipped to the north soon."
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin nodded after hearing this. This is taking advantage of people's herd mentality and is also a marketing method.
People in the south think that Pingyang is the capital, and the people there are either rich or noble, so the things they use must be the best.
People in the north know that most people in Guangzhou are wealthy, and the things that the rich like to use must be good.
In this way, people from both the north and the south will be attracted by this new thing, and this is a successful marketing campaign.
However, as the business will open tomorrow, the two of them still want to make up a simple and memorable jingle, and think about it after they finish their meal and find a place to stay.
Soon, the group arrived at the entrance of the restaurant.
Guangfu Restaurant.
This is a relatively good restaurant in Yongding County. The two asked Aji to choose a restaurant with a quiet environment and delicious food, so Aji brought them here.
As the group walked in, a waiter came up to greet them warmly.
"Dear guests, please come here. What would you like to eat?"
The waiter led the group to a table and asked while wiping the table and pouring tea for them.
"Waiter, what dishes do you have here?"
Zheng Yuan looked around but didn't see any menu, so he could only ask the waiter.
"Madam, our restaurant has Eight Treasure Duck, Chicken with Mushrooms, Bamboo Shoots and Bacon, Sausages, Eggplant Pancakes, Steamed Chicken, Cabbage Dumplings, Tofu Stuffed with Meat..." The waiter listed a bunch of dish names like pouring out beans.
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin interrupted him quickly. They couldn't remember what dishes he mentioned after talking about them all. They were not used to not having a menu.
When asked what was delicious, Aji couldn't tell him. He thought the food in these southern restaurants was all the same. He chose this restaurant because the service was good and the food was okay.
Seeing that Aji didn't know what to eat, the two of them simply asked the waiter to prepare six dishes for them, which were the six most popular dishes in the restaurant.
The waiter received the order, responded and ran to the kitchen.
As soon as the waiter left, the two sat down and looked at the layout of the restaurant.
There is nothing particularly new about it. It is similar to the layout in those costume TV dramas. The difference may be that one is newer and the other is older.
The restaurant is quite spacious, with the lobby on the first floor and the private rooms on the second floor. It was lunchtime, and there were quite a few people sitting in the lobby. I guess the food must be really good, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people.
"Hey, Brother Liu, have you heard that Jiang's will be bringing toothbrushes and toothpaste from Pingyang City to sell tomorrow?"
Toothbrush, toothpaste?
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin, who were looking around, heard a few men at the table above discussing something, and immediately pricked up their ears to listen to what they were saying.
"I heard that everyone in the city has been talking about this for a while. Everyone is guessing what it is."
"It sounds like something used on teeth. I guess it's some new method that the nobles came up with to clean their mouths."
"I think so too. People in the capital really like to think about strange things. I will go and see what it is tomorrow."
"I'll go too. If it's really a good thing, then we can also use the things that these nobles use."
......
After listening carefully, I found that not only people at this table, but also many people around were discussing this matter.
Hearing these people's words, Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin couldn't suppress the smiles on their faces.
It seems that this marketing strategy is successful. At least it has aroused the curiosity of many people. As long as there is curiosity, marketing is half successful.
Only with curiosity will people come to see and opportunities will be created.
As for whether it can be sold, that depends on tomorrow's promotion. In short, now the heat has been stirred up, and the effect they want has been achieved.
