Hi, Are you interested in socks? If so, please read my story.
In our college, we have an area that students can sell things like second hand books or vintage colthes there.( What's the name of this kinds school market corner?) I have started a small business in this place. I sold socks. The reason was simple. It was winter time, the weather getting colder, and indeed, students would like to buy some warm socks. Therefore I wholesale socks from online market, then sell them to freezing students.
I was the best seller of the market. Because my unique strategy to attract potiential buyers. Unless my neighbor stall, she sold some fancy, expensive socks. In my stall, the lowest price was 50 cents. It was very friendly price to students. And I usually gave it for free if someone buy over 15 dollors. Plus, I use a poster " buy 3 get 5." Because the reasonable price and good qulitay. My socks were very popular.
However, I encourted another problem. The school street market started from 18:00, but in that semester I had class from 18:00 to 20:00. So I hired my roomate, she took care of the stall when I went to class, and I paid her in socks. One day 3 free socks. And another problem occured, soon she got enought socks and the weather got colder, so she quit. I needed new helps. So I went to my other classmates, I told them some funny story that happened when I run my socks buiness, and naturally I asked them whether they want to try. I wasn't really worry I may have a competitor because it was a hard job in winter. And out of curiose some of my classmates actually helped me to take care of the stall when I had class.
In the end of the semester, I got enough money to buy a new ipone 7.
