In 2011, he was admitted to Changchun University and met with an old school student, Lao Pan, occasionally at a fellowship. When he was chatting, he learned that he organized an entrepreneurial association for college students and chatted about entrepreneurship. Although I was in school, I was able to use high school in a restaurant and small restaurant. After working in the winter and summer vacations for several times as a waitress, he talked about the matter, talked about it and left contact information. The freshman winter vacation went to work in the South Electronics Factory to work as a winter vacation worker, earning no more than a few thousand pieces. He used the remaining days to go home to see if he had a phone call at home for a few days. He said there was another classmate. Interested in catering, and then urging me to hurry to school, crowded the 32-hour train to get off at Changchun at 6am on March 1 to drop off my luggage and go to another school district to meet with another headmaster Wang, about three people Talk about 3 hours and talk about the preparations that both of them had done in two days. Determined to open a take-away shop for sellers, and then started the road to entrepreneurship.

The first step is site selection. There are many conditions for site selection. There are less money, better location, monthly payment, ability to cook, the first floor, and independence. Really looking for 800 in January, water fee January 30 electricity fee was once 0.5 (civil electricity) on the first floor of the school teacher building, just lived with a unemployed chef, really help, ah, and the landlord chef to eat a meal It will be set.

The second step is to raise money. The start-up capital is estimated to be 8,000. After the business is opened, you can use a running account. Therefore, one person invests 3,000, but Pan has only 1,500 funds. For the time being, there is a total of 7,500 funds.

The third step is the equipment, kitchen utensils or something we go directly to the secondary market to buy.

The fourth step is the renovation, no money how to decorate, only on their own, find a car to build a lowland by filling construction waste, and then buy cement sand to do a layer of their own floor, this is not a problem for rural children, Pan found their association The people who came to help wash the pots and pans and the exterior wall stickers, which were very hard to beat in the northeast, had a temperature of minus 20 degrees Celsius and instantly frozen, but they all overcome it.

The fifth step is the recruitment of staff, the chef has, and then answer the phone, send meals to the students are looking for a part-time job, cut the side dish did not find it temporarily, I had to go on, although it is a second-hand but can be used urgently. In this way, these preparations were all completed within 6 days from the handover of rent from No. 3 to No. 9. At the time of the 7th, the handbill opened on the 9th had already been dispatched. On the 7th No. 8 there had already been a lot of booking calls. Now.

Opening a business, because the place is really small, the chef's room and the kitchen are separated by a wall, arranged in the chef's room to order meal calls, and then send orders to the kitchen, the kitchen door is open outdoors, in March in Changchun, or minus More than 20 degrees, when the water is pulled open by the door, the hands can feel frozen on the door handle. At 8 o'clock in the evening, she went to bed at 2 o'clock to find a hotel to sleep directly. On the 9th, she got up at 4 o'clock in the morning. She went straight to the food market to bring the chef to buy food. It cost me 1500 yuan a morning, of course. It was good enough for a few days. Then it was busy. Although it was fully prepared, it was still short of this one. There was no process or anything to do it. The rice cooker was too much power. Still cooking, hurried to the landlord's home to continue cooking, and the five diners were not able to deliver it. They were also serving meals, answering the phone, and buying what they needed. It was a good thing to have a busy mess. It was a good thing to have a business. One day it was too tired to die. The blind man shouted and his legs ran away, and his whole body was boring! However, the return immediately saw that the turnover of the first day of 783 was also the first pot of gold for us. We were excited to see the banknotes that fell on the incubator. This was our reward.

Hopeful first pot of gold

Day-to-day business, with the experience of the first day, was much smoother the next day, but in the morning the film police at the nearby police station couldn’t open a restaurant here, and then they left. In the afternoon we knew that we would send him some money. On the line of hundreds of pieces, the next day's turnover was almost equal to 700 am in the morning, and at the end of the night, it was 1200 on the second day. This made us believe that our choice was right, and then the performance for a few days It stayed around 1200, because our kitchen area was 8 square feet, a chef, no other kitchen staff, so it has reached the limit. Sometimes orders that come from time to finish cannot be refunded. About a week later, performance began to decline. Our response method was to distribute leaflets to the school dormitory and surrounding office buildings, send take-out information on the school’s major QQ groups, and the business was good for a while. It took them once or twice a month. Yes, so performance has always been the same. We once tried our best to reduce costs. The grapevine said that it was going to the wholesale food market. Then we arrived at the wholesale food market in the middle of the night. It was only before dawn in the morning and the daylight ended. We bought about 2,000 yuan worth of vegetables and meat. We pulled down the shop at 3:00 in the morning and found that there was no place to put it. We went directly to a packed foam box and put the meat directly in the snowdrift outside. A week later we began to discuss the shift system, because now all three of us are spending time delaying classes, so we agreed to be on duty on Wednesday for the six days and they are responsible for the rest of the time because I did not have classes on Wednesday. He is both sophomore and so so class is not so important. Later, women who had found a side dish had been doing it. In terms of wages, we also work differently according to different jobs. The chef did not leave for 4,000 months in January because it was busy at two points a day. The side dish was 1500 January. The operator had 150 base salary and 50 bonuses for 18 hours a week. There were 3 wiring. When you are busy, you have to come to at least two. When you are busy, you have to be one or not to be on duty. The basic salary of 100 meals delivered 50 bonus 50 words make up for each meal delivery 10 yuan commission of 0.6 yuan, there are 5 meals for the staff configuration and the same as the operator hours, the meal attendant is mainly to provide a point salary guarantee work and then have more work. All people eat and pack lunch. Monthly wages are paid on time. What's left are the three of us, who can get a bonus of 1K to 2K per month. It's not much. But this small shop is just like our treasure. It cares every day.

Changchun, March is 20 degrees below zero, and the delivery boy takes delivery of fast food.

In the twinkling of the summer, we were worried about the future of the store, and it was too small for nothing. It was no good to go down to this place. So the three people discussed the place and then returned to find a new place. Then they moved the equipment. A carport was kept for two months at 150, which ended the first period of time with a total of 130,000 business performance for a total of 4 months.
Once again, if you want to start again in the autumn, you can only look for a bigger place. Near the main road, there is a room on the first floor with two rooms, one kitchen and one bathroom. The landlord has just started to refuse to rent a restaurant to be dirty. The rogue can't stand the softening of the three of us. It eventually rents us at a price of 2,000 yuan a month. But it has to be paid once a year. This is not easy for us, but there is no way we can only Take out the tuition fees and use them to pay for tuition.

If you want to change places, you have to make a big deal.

This time, the place is bigger, the location is more, and of course the equipment is also replaced. It's better to have a dedicated wiring desk and a canopy bed. Usually I don't want to go back to the bedroom and sleep. The salaries and wages were also revised slightly in accordance with the previous ones, and they also seized the period of military training. The first month’s turnover was 50,000, and the net profit was also rising. Therefore, we asked to find a senior manager on duty as a part-time manager. Save the three of us busy, just in the shop supervision on the line, we introduced the ordering software, so that you can easily calculate the monthly amount of food delivery per person per month and the number of all dishes sold as well as the type of source and the click of the dishes Rate, performance continues to rise The second month is floating every day in 2000, the third month rose to about 2500 or even more than 3000, good performance I think we should thank everyone, and all go to sing.

When the largest number reached 17 people at one time

Since September is getting colder and the business is getting better and better, the kitchen also has three long-term jobs. There are about four and five food delivery and wiring jobs. The light wages will cost about 12,000 in January. Chef 4500, side dish 2500, rice bowler 1800, plus all part-time. However, the hidden dangers that have just begun to bury are now also highlighted. From the beginning of the business, the equity of the three people is average, so it is something to be together and the money is divided. However, the two seniors are all contestants and often quarrel with each other, but the big events They are not ambiguous, but because of the disobedience of others, the contradiction is accumulating so that when one day's performance reaches its peak, the trivial quarrel develops to the point of departure because the last single meal I deliver is not, the part-time manager is, but he is also I couldn't pull it out. The two got into a fight and even moved a knife. It just happened to be stopped by me. One threatened to go out and sent someone to go. I sent the other to the hotel for rest, and then came back to deal with him. He didn't call anyone. The fellows who had already graduated from work said that it was finally over. From then on, I slowly began to withdraw, but I also knew that I had withdrawn. He certainly couldn’t do it. He had to go out, so he insisted on The use of the prime time period, or Heaven's reward, this four-month busy doing indeed earned some money, 190000 performance.

After the year passed, I continued to withdraw from the previous contradictions. Both of them also advised me to continue working together. I think it is too good to stop. This kind of cooperation will continue to be unsatisfactory. So, let’s close early, otherwise, After I took out the food, my insistence was that I finally discussed the exchange and finally withdrew at a price of 75,000. This ended my first venture. I don’t regret making such a decision because the shop needs a lot of progress. It can be achieved at a certain scale, not only in two strokes, but also in college. There are many things to do, not only entrepreneurship, but also university life. Looking back at the store with a visual review of the current situation, many problems will surface one by one. The most important ones are: 1. Equity distribution and partners 2. Leaders' behavioral attitudes and learning influence the entire team And business development.

Because the author is an art design professional, he used his spare time to adapt the filming and starred in an entrepreneurial documentary in the second year. The venue utilized the new venue that was later relocated. Welcome everyone to look around. Welcome everyone to give their opinion and hope to help. You, thank you.
