271. Sales Director
Luo Xiu didn't worry too much about this March 8 event.
If the boss has to run every event himself, the company will not need to develop.
Luo Xiu just took a look at each node and focused more on the offline business.
Before he was reborn, he was the director of e-commerce operations and knew little about offline businesses.
Now he has to start learning again.
No one is born to know, everyone starts from scratch.
What's more, Luo Xiu now has a better foundation than others and also has more trial and error costs.
Compared to the boy who went to the Thirteenth House to purchase goods in 2008, his current conditions are much better.
But time is money, and Luo Xiu needs to open up the offline market faster.
In the end, he decided to learn slowly on the one hand, and on the other hand, he hired an experienced marketing director to help him.
The company's main business was e-commerce. Luo Xiu liked to recruit newly graduated college students because there were no talents in society who truly understood e-commerce. New graduates were still a piece of blank paper and were easier to accept new things.
The offline market is a very mature channel, and all rules are established, and it is about relationships and is about taking the money.
It is impossible to succeed if those college students who have just entered society and do not understand the worldly style.
Lin Baoer stood at the door of Luo Xiu's office and knocked on the door, "Boss, I just interviewed a sales director with a lot of experience. Do you have time to see him now?"
"You give me his resume first and let him in ten minutes."
"Okay boss."
Luo Xiu took over his resume from Lin Baoer and focused on his responsibilities and achievements in his recent job.
He served as the sales director for a well-known household appliance company, helping the company develop the South China and East China markets. During his term of office, he increased his annual sales by 30%...
Judging from the resume, this is one of the more than ten sales directors Luo Xiu has interviewed recently, and I don’t know how much moisture there is.
It is normal to have moisture, and it is not that easy to find an honest sale.
Ten minutes later, Lin Baoer brought the person in.
His age looks similar to what he wrote on his resume. He is thirty-five years old, with a slightly fat figure, a distinct belly, and a simple smile on his face.
"Hello, Mr. Luo, my name is Chen Ming, and I will interview your company's sales director."
"Um."
Luo Xiu responded coldly, pretending to be absent-minded, and did not ask questions to the interviewer.
This is very different from Luo Xiu's previous interview style. In the past, no matter what kind of applicant he faced, he would make the other party feel as comfortable as possible.
But this time I am going to recruit a sales director, who should have the ability to break the embarrassment and deal with various scenes calmly.
This is the first level that Luo Xiu set for him. If he can't even pass this level, it means that his abilities are limited.
"President Luo looks much younger than I thought!" Chen Ming praised Luo Xiu without a trace, "Why would I briefly introduce myself first."
He kept a simple smile on his face, which made people involuntarily let go of their guard against him.
At this point, his score in Luo Xiu's heart increased a little more.
It’s not that sales must be as cute as him, and some powerful salesmen look aggressive, forcing the dealers below to obey him.
If Pinru is a powerful traditional old-fashioned enterprise, then Luo Xiu will definitely need the latter, but he is now a new brand, and the former may be more suitable.
After two hours of chatting, Luo Xiu basically determined that he was the person he was looking for.
Then there is a back-to-back and salary adjustment.
Luo Xiu rarely uses back-tuning, but this position must be more cautious, so he hired a third-party company to make a strict back-tuning for Chen Ming.
The result of the back tune is not much different from the description of the resume.
During the salary fixed stage, Luo Xiu asked directly: "What are your requirements for salary and benefits?"
Chen Ming asked back: "Can I first understand your company's current salary structure?"
"The salary structure of our e-commerce department head is the basic salary + high commission. According to our existing system, the salary that can be given is P4 level 15,000 monthly salary + commission. The commission part can be negotiated and the company at the end of each year
Let’s discuss and develop a reasonable point.”
Chen Ming immediately made a request and said: "I know very well that sales are about performance. The industry also defaults to sales personnel who can only receive a basic salary. If you want to get rich, you have to rely on commissions. However, Mr. Luo just now, you also mentioned Pinru's current offline business.
It is 0. If I were asked to start this business from 0, it would definitely be very difficult in the early stage, sales performance would definitely not be ideal, and it would be difficult to get a high commission."
"So what's your idea?"
"I am no longer young now. I have a mortgage and a family. The company must ensure that I have no worries so that I can work harder for the company. So I hope I can give me a more secure fixed salary in the first year."
"Your request is reasonable, I can promise you."
Although Pinru is doing well online, there is no market offline, so it is normal for the other party to have concerns.
Without a guaranteed salary, why do they take risks with you?
In the end, Luo Xiu negotiated with him a pre-tax salary of 400,000 yuan, and a year-end bonus, which can be said to be a very generous treatment, with a salary increase of about 30% compared to his previous family.
After Chen Ming entered the company, he immediately entered the work state.
In the first week, we worked with Luo Xiu to formulate a price system, dealer policies, and the first batch of channels to enter.
The next week, he did not go back to the company to check in and started going out to the market, and asked for three ordinary sales staff to be assigned.
These three people were designated by him and were the people he brought out from the previous family.
This is also a normal requirement. It is impossible for the sales director to do everything by himself.
Usually, after the director has established a relationship, the remaining things only need to be executed by the following business.
Luo Xiu didn't think much and directly agreed to his request.
After the four-person team was established, good news soon came.
We have reached preliminary intentions with the procurement of Carrefour and Walmart. After the relevant details and fees are negotiated, we can enter the market.
After listening to Chen Ming's work report, Luo Xiu's trust in him increased a little more and further delegated power to him.
"Boss, Mr. Chen gave me a bill. He wanted to advance the travel expenses of 50,000 yuan from the company." The company's finance department placed a loan application form on Luoxiu's desktop.
"What do you think?" Luo Xiu looked up and asked the finance department.
"I think this amount is too large. It is recommended that the amount of a single loan should not exceed 10,000 yuan."
"It's okay, I'll approve it for him. Ten thousand yuan each time, it's so troublesome."
Chapter completed!
