When I was a senior, I struggled with my family for a long time and gave up the idea of studying in Japan. I began to think about preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination in my spare time. The dormitory is a little noisy, and the library always feels uncomfortable. I moved to a fairly high-end residential area of Pudong Road Light Rail Station in Changchun to prepare for the exam, and I still insist on running, studying and sleeping regularly every morning. In fact, although I moved out, I found that I still couldn't step on my heart to speak. I just started searching for work information online in my spare time. Time pressure is really great. My family wants me to go to school if possible, and I hope I can get rid of books as soon as possible. I happened to meet a boss one morning.
In fact, it was a very ordinary morning. I just wanted to get something to eat after exercise, and I happened to pass by KFC at the gate of the community. I just decided to have a breakfast set meal. When I ordered the order, a gentleman in front of me faltered and chatted with the teller. Soon, the man in bright green sportswear spoke to me. "Handsome boy, do you have any change? Today, the counter can't pay by mobile phone, so I will buy my wife a cup of coffee and a hamburger. " Seeing his face embarrassed, he has obviously asked several people. I don't think there is much money to give him a fifty-dollar bill. Men are grateful. At that time, he added my WeChat and transferred the money to me. I thought this was the end of it.
Two weeks later, I heard that the school was looking for an internship, otherwise we would go to a primary school to participate in some activities. I like children very much, but it's troublesome to think about them. At that time, I was still a boy who loved to send friends, and I laughed at myself for going to an internship in primary school. As a result, it wasn't long before the gentleman from KFC sent me a WeChat, and tomorrow I came to his company for an internship with surprise and joy. I feel as if I have seen this story somewhere. I don't want to go to primary school anyway, and the company dumped me.
At that time, I had no idea about health care products, Herbalife and pyramid schemes (I dare not say Herbalife is pyramid schemes), but I received a good safety education from an early age. I sent it to my roommate before I went, thinking that there would be no problem, so I set off. Later, it was found that the store was not particularly large, but it was neat. My eldest brother is very enthusiastic. He warmly invited me to stay for hot pot at noon. Seeing that I am good at electronic products, he gave me the first prize. Fortunately, three times five divided by two solved the problem of sound card driver. Eldest brother thought I was a smart guy and began to introduce his family history to me. Only then did I know that he was the general generation of Herbalife in Changchun, and Herbalife in Changchun market went out from him, and his master was the general generation in Northeast China. He told me emotionally that he came out of the countryside, first he was poor and married a tall daughter-in-law from Shandong, and then it was a coincidence. His master, after a little witness, made a fortune. Later, he devoted all his time and energy to Herbalife's weight loss career, won Changchun Zongdai by patchwork, opened several branches from this store, and then drove home for the New Year, which was vivid and inspiring.
Seeing that I had some questions, he began to treat me to a milkshake and meal replacement, and watched his students lose weight successfully. He said that he often goes out, and this store wants someone to watch it for him. If he can really see it, he is going to give it to a new person. That day, I was very happy. I didn't leave until five or six. On my way home, I immediately called my mother to share the good news. Unexpectedly, my mother severely criticized me.
Frankly speaking, I was scared. The next day, I politely said goodbye to my eldest brother and simply continued to study. It's a really strange experience to think of it now. What impressed me most was the free hot pot meal. Hahaha, I'm still not sure whether Herbalife is a pyramid scheme, especially after seeing the wild Internet business model. Now I think Herbalife has a lot to learn, and health care products are an interesting industry.
1, although expensive, is effective.
Just like Amway is also regarded as a pyramid scheme by my family, but Amway's aloe vera is really good. In any case, the product is effective and valuable, but the price varies from person to person. Many people think it's like pyramid selling. Personally, I think it's just that the consumption level is not up to standard and the conditions are not good. Finally, they simply said it was pyramid schemes.
2. Complex and perfect membership, distribution and management system.
This hierarchical pyramid scheme has been played out by Internet experts. I don't want to talk about it, because there are many formed frames for insomnia, and I can use them whenever I want. I want to talk about the strict delivery system here. As far as I know, they have spent a lot of brains on preventing cross-selling. It is said that there is a secret team to check cross-selling. I don't know if it's true or not, but I think Herbalife, a listed company in the US stock market, can achieve such a large and strict system.
3, hungry wolf-style sales, human nature is thoroughly grasped.
In my opinion, Herbalife's sales are two points, one is hard work and the other is social marketing. Coping is very common, especially in the Beijing subway, and people often hope that you can add his WeChat. After adding it, you can see that he and her excellent students have lost a little weight and become "more confident". Frankly speaking, if I am a plump lady with a little savings and a successful career, it may be really attractive to hear someone tell me that I can lose weight without exercising and talking. Off topic, what I want to say is that Herbalife's sales are the most shameless sales. They are even inferior to most of the sales I have seen. They are eager to make money. They don't care about anything. They seem willing to do anything except attract new people. This is really amazing, in fact, more than many people.
The other is the acquaintance social sales model, which is more humanized. Even now, there are not many real social e-commerce in e-commerce, but in fact Herbalife already knows it very well.
4, a highly unified values and corporate culture
I'm not saying that pyramid selling is good, but that this method is effective, and more and more companies are beginning to emphasize their values. Personally, I don't object to or resist the company brainwashing me, because I recognize this matter, and I think only in this way can we gather employees efficiently. This is an excellent performance of a sales company. If I have the opportunity to lead the team in the future, I will do the same thing with probability.
5, make friends with users, flat management.
Whether it is true or not, on the day I was in Herbalife, everyone I met was actually more like a friend, and there was no obvious conflict of interest. Shop assistants, coaches and customers also call each other by nicknames. There is no hierarchy and flat management. Later, I became more and more aware of the importance of this matter. In fact, life is still very boring. Combining work and life is a problem that most people should think about. Don't talk all day, nepotism will naturally be much less.
That's all. I hope you can learn something after reading it. I don't care if Herbalife is a pyramid scheme. If others have advantages, they should learn from them. If they learn, they will make money.
