Charming Beauty - C181
Regarding the matter of me becoming the manager, Guan Muyun was definitely aware of it. He had long arranged for me to do all the related work, and if I had to prepare, I could go to work anytime.
Thus, I returned back to Big Brother Guan’s company and officially became the sales director of one of them.
On my first day on duty, the Sales Department specially arranged a simple and warm welcoming ceremony for me. The heads of each office came, and I felt relieved and relieved to see them in high spirits. I said, “In the future, our department’s work will depend on you all to work hard. We’ll continue to do well and improve a lot more if we don’t do well.” Everyone was very cooperative.
As the proverb goes, the new governor is under fire. I have already made up my mind that since I am going to take the position of sales manager, I must do it well. I can’t let others see me as a joke.
I began to work on my own work plan, some of which involved seventeen offices in the province, and when I took over, the department wasn’t working as well as it should have been, but I couldn’t really see the problem within the company, and to make a complete improvement, I had to get to the bottom of it and find out where the problem came from.
Thus, I suggested to Big Brother Guan that I go and do a market research to see what the problem was. Originally, he wanted to ask Big Brother Guan for his opinion and see if he could implement it in detail.
“Being a manager of a company with a clear mind and a clear mind and personally doing an investigation is highly recommended,” he said. In order to facilitate my journey, he had even provided me with a private car, a personal chauffeur and a helper at work. I was filled with praise for Big Brother Guan.
I decided to go to six offices in Jiaonan first. I thought that if I really sneaked into the office, I would be able to find the source of the problem.
Sure enough, during my inspection, I found quite a few flaws. More importantly, these problems have already been exposed. No one can solve them.
For example, I went to a place called Nansha in Jiaonan, where the economy was relatively ahead of the province, but where sales were surprisingly small. In order to find out the root cause, I first went to a physical shop in the center of the city. I discovered that there were very few new styles in the shop, and they were very expensive; some of the old styles were very cheap, but they were not attractive.
I immediately decided to visit the warehouse. As expected, I was even more shocked by what happened. No one knew where many of the old models were. Because the new models were not selling well, they were afraid of losing money, so they were never introduced, causing the stock to be too big either directly or indirectly.
Moreover, the problem that had to be solved was that neither in the physical shop nor in the warehouse, the goods were placed in a categorized manner, which made the situation more obvious in the display cases of new products.
I was really a little pissed off at this, so I called in the local sales manager and asked him what the situation was and whether he had any concrete solutions. Unfortunately, the person in charge said as such, “All the solutions I’ve thought of before didn’t work. The production of new and old products has been delayed, causing more and more problems. There’s nothing I can do about it.”
After hearing the answer from the person in charge, I felt a little bit more confident about the region’s declining sales results. If the leader didn’t do anything and the leader didn’t have any thoughts, then he definitely wouldn’t achieve any excellent results. Even where economic levels and capabilities can be at the forefront, they cannot be managed and improved effectively without the right methods and strategies.
Moreover, it is really a coincidence that the six places I have been patrolling, each of which has a different degree of problems, and I have not found any relevant effective solutions to them. Often, I have already done some common sense, but due to various reasons, I did not persist or the results were not ideal, so I gave up.
I know in my heart that this is a great responsibility, and I have the confidence and determination to improve this situation. At the same time, I am also secretly rejoicing, but fortunately Big Brother Guan was thoughtful before, which made me feel that this trip was very easy for a cripple to handle, it was convenient, and my efficiency also increased by a lot.
After a few days away from work, I feel exhausted and physically and mentally exhausted. But thinking that time is pressing now and there are still many places waiting for me to improve, I don’t have that much time to rest and think about it.
Big Brother Guan has seen all of this, he will go to work with me and make me some food that I like to eat. One day, he looked at me and seriously said, “I really don’t want to see you work so hard anymore. Promise me you won’t be too tired, okay?” Looking at Big Brother Guan’s expression, I actually started to feel pain in my heart. However, I still have to complete my duties.
When I got back to work, it took me about a week to write a plan for six different phenomena in six places, and a promotional plan for each place. The modifications and modifications were made many times so that they could achieve their own optimal results and could be successfully implemented.
As for the stagflation of products, I think it’s about matching them with other products and keeping prices down properly; about finding time to sort and decorate products that are not classified; and about overstock, I think I can try cross-selling, get rid of the stocks as soon as possible, and at the same time be able to produce new products.
In order to get these plans out as soon as possible, regardless of day or night, I would seriously analyze, judge, and consider the implementation of these phenomena. After proposing one plan after another, I would then deny each and every one of my plans.
In this week, I had rejected Jiajia’s several invitations to eat and shop, as well as Big Brother Guan’s kind suggestion to rest properly, but I had always been focused on my work. Since I had already decided to do it and start it, then I must strive to be perfect.
I always felt that the Heavens did not disappoint those who were willing. Thus, after my own meticulous research and judgement, I confidently submitted my proposal to the company, hoping to gain the approval of the company’s upper echelons and implement it as soon as possible, thus changing the current situation of those places.
As I waited for the results, my heart gave a sigh of relief.
