Introduce agency model
Sales increase six times in two months
Specifically, this model is to introduce intermediary brokers to help companies reduce their cost of sales and billing standards, and to open up the "secondary governor" of the local market.

In this regard, after the redesign of the layout of Yiwu Hardware Museum, the introduction of the intermediary sales model broke through this sales bottleneck, sales in the last two months soared six times.
According to Yang Yiheng, most Danzao hardware companies are focusing on high-end products, which are misaligned with the low-end market in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. However, due to the constraints of transportation costs, companies that try to place orders or orders worth less than 20,000 yuan will find it uneconomical. This has also led to the loss of potential customers. "In response to this, we have adjusted our operating model. In addition to the display-plus-distribution model, we can not only better help companies enter the Middle East market, but also enable companies to use the hardware platform to increase sales."
Specifically, this model is to introduce intermediary brokers to help companies reduce their cost of sales and billing standards, and to open up the "secondary governor" of the local market. “Agreement reached through the contact between agents and manufacturers, so that the cost of transportation will be reduced a lot, even if the orders are less than 20,000 yuan companies are willing to take orders, and some buyers will continue to increase orders after a small amount of purchase trials, so that The company succeeded in winning a long-term customer again.†Through this model, the museum’s sales have doubled in two months.
