They have sold a total 34 sets on the day 1.
Then an average of 50 sets per day in the next 3 days.
And about the same offline at the counter. As they didn’t have a lot of storefronts, very few consumers were aware of this brand and most were cautious about products that went onto their faces.
“Aye, boss was right. We should have arranged for a streaming service. The little boy I was watching last night sold some 5,000 plus lipsticks in one night.”
“Such amazing salesman ability.”
The thought of it alone saddened Liu Zhichao.
It was too late to arrange for that now!
All contracts for Double-12 had been signed by now.
All he could say was that they were too old school and still focused on offline advertising. Their online presence was very lacking.
“We have just taken our first step. Don’t be intimated just yet.”
Lao Xia took a sip of his tea.
“Haven’t the boss painted the posters for next year’s advertisement already?”
Liu Zhichao had a peculiar look on him as soon as he heard that.
Speaking of, Boss Gu was very proactive.
She painted at the rate of one a day and completed the packaging for all of their products. As though she hasn’t had enough fun, she went onto painting posters!
She even said she would offer a painting for each of the top 3 highest spending customers over the Double-12 promotion.
Gifting customers painting was a very peculiar gesture in the skincare product field.
Low and behold, he felt that it wasn’t a bad idea at all.
He could hardly take his eyes off the original paintings from his boss. He’d look at it for a while, then wanted to look at it some more, and then some more… He didn’t know why that was but he just felt that they were very nicely done.
Wouldn’t it be amazing to have one?!
“Let me go find out whether the boss has the gift ones done yet. I want to have marketing place them on the website sooner rather than later.”
Liu Zhichao stopped smoking immediately.
He walked over to the front of the factory, then turned back to his office.
Lao Xia too, snuffed out his cigarette. “Alright, I’ll go test out the new formulas as well.”
***
Gu Shishi had, indeed, completed her paintings.
The one for the packaging were just minor projects. She completed the ones meant for gifts.
An emperor applying moisturizing lotions.
A court lady placing a hairpin on herself.
A knight walking forward quickly.
A drunk scholar.
She also painted a few fans as well, most to entertain herself but she also threw them in as extra gifts.
When she was no longer concerned about the cost and commercial value of her work, she felt a whole new sense of freedom and joy.
She also deviated from her normal traditional, delicate, and simple style. Instead, it had an added sense of liveliness to them.
When Liu Zhichao messaged her, she had just finished taking pictures of them and was just about to send them over to him.
“I have prepared a total of 12 gifts. Some are paintings, some are fans, and some are paintings on ceramics. You decide whether we should give them to the top spenders or we should keep a few and save them for, say, the 10,000thorder or the 6666th order, etc.”
“Okay,” responded Liu Zhichao quickly.
Then he wiped away his sweat.
The 10,000thorder?
He felt he’d be too happy to even sleep if they ever received that many orders.
Aye.
The boss had such high hopes.
That made him worried even more.
The pre-sale in the last few days really wasn’t all that optimistic!
Had Gu Shishi knew of his worries, she would probably comfort him some.
Many people didn’t care for pre-sale.
Especially the wealthy ones.
At least Chen Kexin said she would be buying a * ton.
To put it simply, 10,000 orders only came out to be 2 ~ 3 million yuan.
Not only would they receive the products that they have purchased, but they would get a painting on top of that.
Mmm… that was a steal.
Gu Shishi wasn’t worried one bit.
