Chapter 633: Order of Horror
June 18, 2004.
This is a day all e-commerce practitioners will remember.
On this day, Universal Department Store, an e-commerce website under Universal Technology, officially held a clothing brand promotion.
Maybe for many people, this is a one-category promotion.
His size should not be large.
At the same time, he is also a promotion of the c2c model, and he is even more unlikely to be comparable to b2c.
But this day is to break the three views of countless people.
Wang Haimei, who had been waiting in front of the computer before 0:00, was motionless, staring at the data on the computer.
"I said my wife, in the middle of the night, she still looks at the computer."
"I'll see if there's a list."
"It's late at night, look, it's almost 0 o'clock, who will buy things? Will you buy things at 0 o'clock?"
"You don't know, Universal Department Store has an event at 0:00 today, and it's a big promotion."
"It's impossible for a big promotion to have any orders at 0:00 in the evening. Let's see it tomorrow."
Seeing that Wang Haimei was not sleeping, Xie Bing complained in his heart.
"No, let's see first."
Anyway, let's wait until 0:00.
For Wang Haimei, Xie Bing could do nothing.
He knew that his wife Wang Haimei was very family-friendly. Although there were not many online orders, he could earn one or two hundred a month.
Although one or two hundred is not much, it can subsidize the household to some extent.
But Xie Bing is not optimistic about e-commerce.
He thinks shopping online looks convenient, but it's definitely not as intuitive as a brick-and-mortar store.
Just like this dress.
Online clothes can only be seen in pictures, but not touched or tried on. How many people will buy them?
Or in reality, do a good job of the physical store, and don't make the wife work so hard in the future.
Xie Bing made up his mind and said.
Time flies so fast, 0:00 has come soon.
Ding dong, you have a new order, please pay attention to check it.
It came almost at the same time as 0:00, and new orders jumped out.
"also……"
Wang Haimei called out, "Husband, look, a new order is here."
"I know, I know, it's just one order, you can only make ten yuan."
Xie Bing felt a little sleepy.
He also has another unpleasant thing about selling things online.
In order to attract users, online prices are generally much cheaper than brick-and-mortar stores.
Often, he can earn dozens of dollars for a piece of clothing in a brick-and-mortar store, but only a dozen or so on the Internet.
Some even make only a few bucks.
In some remote areas, it is often not profitable.
Because postage is expensive.
Often at this time, ordinary stores take the initiative to ask consumers not to buy.
It's too cheap.
"Ten yuan is also money."
Wang Haimei didn't care so much.
They are in free love and have no house or car.
Now that I have two more children, my life is not very hard, but it is not very good.
They usually make a living selling clothes on the street.
It's just that they are selling clothes in the town, and the gross profit is very low. As a last resort, Wang Haimei had to find some part-time jobs.
It's not easy to just work part-time.
Because she has two children to take care of, she can't go out to work for a long time.
Later, when she learned that she could sell things online, she tried it.
Although this attempt did not bring surprise to Wang Haimei, it was more or less able to sell a few orders.
In addition, she saw that things like the Internet are becoming more and more developed now, and she thought that doing business online must have a bright future in the future.
So I persisted like this for a while, and now Wang Haimei can earn 200 yuan per month.
"Alright, alright, it's money, but it's too late, go to sleep."
"I'll wait."
"Wait, I can't stand it anymore."
"Then go to bed first, I'll be late."
"Uh……"
Xie Bing was extremely depressed: "That's what, wife, we've agreed on that tonight."
"Death."
Wang Haimei's face flushed: "Tomorrow."
"Don't, I've been waiting for you for hours."
"Okay then, hurry up."
Once the couple's life is about to start, there is another message from the computer.
"Husband, stop, there is a new list."
"I'm going, this can't stop."
"I have to take a look. What if the person sees that we don't respond and cancels the order?"
"How come, they can understand in the middle of the night, let's start."
"That……"
Seeing her husband's anxious look, Wang Haimei thought about it too, let's see it later.
However, it is about to start again.
Ding-dong is on the computer again, you have a new order.
"Husband, husband, there is a new list."
"Why?"
"Why can't there be, I can't wait to have several orders in a while."
In just a few minutes, 3 orders appeared, and Wang Haimei was very happy.
When it comes to the real market, there are not so many orders.
But just when she was about to go check it out later, the computer didn't know what to do, but a ding dong ding dong kept coming.
"You have a new order, please check it carefully."
"You have a new order, please check it carefully."
"You have a new order, please pay attention to check..."
The sound shocked both of them.
"Is the computer broken?"
"No way."
"Then why does this sound continue?"
"I don't know, it won't be so many orders."
"Husband, stop, stop, stop..."
"Ah ah ah... I'm going to make Yang Wei unstoppable by you."
This time I have to stop saying anything, and Wang Haimei came to the computer again.
I only see a series of orders displayed in the background of the computer.
In just a short while, he has received more than 70 orders.
the next day.
Wang Haimei got up with her husband.
Today happened to be a market on the street, and Wang Haimei and her husband Xie Bingben were going to open a shop to do business.
However, thinking of the list from last night, Wang Haimei turned on the computer and glanced at the list again.
"My God, 500 orders."
"What, wife, 500 orders?"
"right."
"Don't lie to me?"
"Why are you lying, look..."
Opening the background record, the list was densely packed, and the two were instantly excited.
"Damn it, this wave of promotions is too crazy, so many orders?"
"I didn't expect it to be so powerful, and it was last night, and there should be orders during the day."
"Husband, I won't be in the store today, I'm guarding the online store."
"Okay, I'll open the shop by myself today."
At this moment, Xie Bing said nothing.
More than 500 orders a night, sometimes their physical store can't sell that many orders in a month.
Although he didn't think about e-commerce before, Xie Bing naturally knew what was more important when the real list was placed in front of him.
"Haimei, what are you doing?"
"It's in the online store."
"Wow, it seems that it sold well last night."
"It's okay, more than 500 orders have been sold, how much are you?"
"I'm okay too, selling more than 700 orders."
"My God, you have more than 700 orders."
"What are my more than 700 orders? Let me tell you, Li Mei on the street ahead, do you know how many orders she sold?"
"How many?"
"1010 orders."
"sharp."
Huang Haimei was extremely shocked.
She thought her 500-odd list was already a lot, but she didn't expect anyone to have twice as many.
Of course, Huang Haimei also knew that this kind of thing couldn't be compared.
But she was more determined to continue the online store.
"By the way, have you packaged and shipped it now?"
"No, I'll wait for Xie Bing to come back after finishing the store to pack and deliver."
"Hurry up, tell your husband to stop looking at the store and deliver it first. Let me tell you some news, there are piles of clothes in several express stores in town. If you take a step forward, it is estimated that you want to ship them in the next few days. It may not be possible to send it out.”
"My God, so serious?"
"I can't lie to you."
"That's fine, I'll quickly call Xie Bing back."
