“Not only the design, but the service and attitude of the staff in the store must be consistent with the main store.”
“The last is the food itself.”
“The taste of the dishes must be the same. All of them are distributed by our workshop.”
“In other words, when customers go to the chain store, the service they receive is exactly the same.”
Everyone was shocked.
It sounded like there was no difference between getting a business partner and opening one themselves. From the beginning to the end, wasn’t she the one who was in charge?
“Then there’s no difference between opening one yourself and getting a business partner?” Third Master Zhou couldn’t help but ask.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled and looked at him.
“Of course there is.” He said.
“We will collect a franchise fee and the franchisees will buy the food from us.”
“Of course, the ownership of the store belongs to the franchisee. They are responsible for their own expenses. At the same time, the profits are also theirs.”
Everyone was shocked.
They suddenly felt enlightened.
How could it be like this?
Lin Xiaoyue continued, “as for the franchise fee, it will be low in the beginning since we are still small. We will charge a fee of 200 to 300 taels per store.”
“When there are more and the brand is more established, we can increase the fee.”
“At that time, everyone will be able to see the future of Liu Shi’s Eatery more clearly. They will know that investing in it will definitely earn them money. Even if the joining fee is higher, they will definitely join.”
“Believe it or not, once the brand effect comes out, the Liu family can also earn a lot of money by collecting the franchise fee.”
Everyone was shocked.
When the brand is established, the fee could also increase?
Moreover, she could earn money from the products she supplies?
What a massive profit with such a small capital!
The important thing was that this method could really speed up the opening of the shops!
They would not be restricted by a lack of capital.
At this moment, everyone finally understood where Lin Xiaoyue’s confidence came from.
She was really a genius!
When Manager Liang heard this, he was speechless.
“The joining fee is 200 taels now?” Suddenly, Third Master Zhou asked Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue looked at Third Master Zhou.
“It’s just an example. However, if you are interested and want to join, I will charge you 200 taels.”
Third Master Zhou’s eyes lit up.
“Is that true?” He immediately asked.
He still had some savings on hand. If it wasn’t enough, he could borrow some from his father.
Liu Shi’s Eatery was doing so well!
A shop could be opened with only 200 taels.
In the future, he would only need to hire a store manager and two workers at most. The total monthly expenditure was not high.
After deducting the monthly expenses, as well as the rent, the rest was profit.
It was only 200 taels of silver. It wouldn’t be long before he could earn back the capital.
After that, it would be a net profit.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled and nodded.
“Of course. But…”
“But what?” Third Master Zhou’s expression changed, afraid that Lin Xiaoyue would go back on her word.
“However, 1 have to open another store and a workshop first before I can start preparing for the chain stores. If you want to join, you would have to wait for a while,” Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
Hearing this, Third Master Zhou heaved a sigh of relief. As long as she didn’t want to go back on her word, it’s fine.
“It’s okay, I can wait. Where do you plan to open another store first? Nan’an County?” Third Master Zhou asked anxiously.
The closest city to Qingshi Town was Nan’an County.
Below Nan’an County, the largest town was Qingshi Town. Other than that, the other towns weren’t too big.
If she opened a shop in Nan’an County, her brand would develop faster.
“I think so.” Lin Xiaoyue replied.
“At the same time, I’m thinking of opening two more in Qingshi Town.”
She had even chosen the location.
One was located next to the Ruyi Restaurant, in the most prosperous area.
The other was on another bustling street in Qingshi Town.
Then, the three shops would be distributed on different main streets, and there would be one shop at the dock. There would be almost no competition between them, and it would also ensure that the largest crowds in Qingshi Town would pass by the shops..
