"God, I've never seen such a crazy person in my life!" looking at the dense customers in front of me, Lewis touched the sweat on his forehead.
At the peak of his small grocery store, there were less than 10 customers waiting in line to check out. He had never imagined in his life that hundreds of people could line up to buy things at the door of his store. Even the police came to maintain order for him.
"It's really strange. Why do you say pocket electronic pets are sold in a grocery store? Isn't it good to go to a nearby mall or toy store?" several customers in line muttered with puzzled faces.
They originally went to large shopping malls or toy stores to buy pocket electronic pets, but as a result, none of these stores were sold, and they fell short.
Then they remembered that at the end of yesterday's program, Jack Orens once said that they advertised in the local newspapers of each big city, listing in detail the different sales locations of each city. If you buy the local newspapers, you can find the sales locations.
So they ran to the nearby newsstand as fast as they could. After asking the newsstand owner, they bought a local newspaper of the day, found the detailed address of the selling place on it, and then found the nearest selling point along the address.
In fact, they were fairly fast and ranked in the top 20. When others couldn't react and found these sales points through the newspaper, hundreds of people lined up.
As soon as I asked, these people actually went to large comprehensive shopping malls or toy stores to buy pocket electronic pet machines. As a result, they all threw themselves into the air. But instead of looking for the newspaper, they found that there were a lot of people waiting in line at the store, and then they saw a large poster at the door of the store, so they came to line up.
"I'm also surprised. How did such a good thing come to my shop to sell?" in fact, Lewis also looked at a loss. He didn't know why the other party would sell such a hot thing in his small grocery store, and the other party took the initiative to come to the door. It's really amazing. It's like a piece of dog head gold fell from heaven, Just in front of him.
What Lewis doesn't know is that in fact, it's very helpless. They also want to put the pocket electronic pet machine in those more high-end shopping malls and toy stores, or electronic product stores, but why don't they let them put it.
At the beginning, the salesmen recruited by Fusang Daqian were the first to contact large shopping malls and specialty stores and wanted to sell pocket electronic pet machines in their stores.
However, when these store owners or managers heard this request, they all refused, indicating that their goods were of poor quality, had no brand and were not qualified to be sold in their stores.
These salesmen said good or bad, but most of the stores refused their requests, which made Jack Orens anxious at that time, which was obviously abnormal.
Later, after much inquiry, I learned that it was Hasbro's good deed.
Because Hasbro is already an absolute strong player in the toy field. About 40% of the toy sales in major shopping malls and toy stores come from Hasbro, especially the popular Transformers toys.
So Hasbro sent its own people to these stores, saying that it hoped they would refuse to sell any and all goods of American Daqian educational toys, otherwise Hasbro would refuse to supply these stores.
This request was quite outrageous and annoyed the bosses, but they didn't dare to really refuse Hasbro. After all, 40% of the sales were placed there. As for Daqian, a small enterprise they had never heard of, so they simply agreed.
This is also a normal thing. Hasbro has done such things in order to kill its competitors. They are used to it.
But later, they regretted it, because they later found that Daqian Yizhi was not a small enterprise that did not enter the market, but an enterprise that got the Pokemon copyright toy.
In other words, people are Daqian's branches, so the owners of these stores can only look at those lovely Pokemon dolls and sell them in other stores that don't refuse Daqian.
Because the vast majority of stores rejected Daqian, and only a small number of stores did not refuse, there were only two or three stores in a city for sale, but the number of Pokemon players was huge. As a result, a small number of stores made a lot of money, and the profit was several times that of buying Hasbro toys, which made the jealous eyes of the stores that rejected Daqian red.
But they still dare not put thousands of goods on the shelves at this time, because no matter how well the dolls sell, they fly to the sky, that is, the annual sales of $100 million is still too small compared with the annual sales of billions or even tens of billions of dollars of Hasbro.
The reason why those shops make money is that buyers are concentrated in their shops. If all their own sides turn back and put thousands of goods on the shelves, they will not make much money by sharing, but will take Hasbro's products off the shelves. Therefore, they still dare not offend Hasbro and can only comfort themselves. The relationship between those shops and Hasbro is broken, I can't sell Hasbro's toys all my life. I'll regret it sooner or later.
Anyway, they went the same way to the black. In the face of Daqian's request for cooperation in selling pocket electronic pet machines again, they refused.
But this time, Daqian has invested a lot of money to publicize and promote pocket electronic pet machines, so this time we can't make a small fuss and only put it in a small number of stores. Daqian must be spread all over the country to ensure that there is a store selling pocket electronic pet machines on the roads of each block in every city in the country.
So, after these serious stores refused, Jack Orens decided to find another way. He didn't go to any large shopping malls or toy stores. Instead, he went to small grocery stores or small grocery stores on the roadside.
Because Hasbro has turned a blind eye to such stores, and their toys will not be sold in these low-income small stores, so these small stores have no interest in Hasbro. As long as Daqian offers the ancestral routine of supplying first and then paying, he will immediately conquer the owners of these small stores and use pocket electronic pet machines, It is sold in these small shops, and then various large posters are pasted on the outside walls. By the way, it is almost enough to spend some small money on the local newspaper and publish the purchase address advertisement for a few days.
For these small grocery stores and small food stores, there is no doubt that this is a fortune falling from day to day. They thought it would be quite good to be able to sell about $100 a day at that time. They had no illusions that hundreds of people could queue up at the same time!
In a word, they are rich!
