Iron men, how was the May Day holiday? Are you busy eating delicious food and visiting attractions? Today, let's not talk about poetry and distance. Let's talk about the bad news of a noodle shop owner in Tianjin Wei. The holidays were the peak business season, but he was given a headache by the 'ghost scale'. After a while of easy handling, Lao Tie Happy Soybean said,'Finally, we have found a reliable way.' Today, three good people chatted with everyone in front of the screen about this matter. 

Let's talk about this old Tie first. His surname is Wang. Sanhao calls him 'Brother Wang'. He has been in the noodle business in Tianjin for about ten years. From a street shop to supplying factories and canteens, he relies on the word "reality." The flour is carefully selected, and the amount is naturally sufficient. The customer sources he has accumulated over the past ten years are solid, but recently he has been scratching his head with worry: when supplying goods to supermarkets, he clearly delivered goods according to the weight and weight, but later he was reported that 'the amount is wrong' and old customers have been lost one after another.

'At first, Lao Tie thought that his scale was broken, so he replaced three new scales and went to the supermarket to compare them. Only then did he discover that something was fishy-they were using a' ghost scale'! 'Brother Wang was so angry that he slapped the table. The old ironmen all knew that' ghost scales 'were common in vegetable markets and mobile stalls, but now they have openly entered the supermarket: 500 grams of noodles were clearly weighed out, but when it arrived at' ghost scales ', it became 450 grams or even 400 grams. Consumers who didn't know why thought that we were short of weight.

    May Day holiday was the peak sales season, but Brother Wang's noodle shop lost orders from several supermarkets because of this. 'Watching competitors use' ghost scales 'to grab customers at low prices, we do business with our conscience, but we suffer a loss. What is this? 'Brother Wang couldn't swallow this anger. He came to our Tianjin Sanhao Machinery and Equipment Factory with a full of grievances. He wanted to replace a set of automated equipment and solve the' ghost scale 'problem. When talked about changing equipment, Brother Wang was also drumming at first: After ten years in the noodle business and always using traditional stand-alone machines, can this automated equipment be reliable? When Lao Tie was confused, the Sanhao technician was ready and invited Lao Tie into the workshop for a live demonstration.

    'Look at this Sanhao noodle machine . The flour is first stirred at high speed, then entered into the noodle supply bin, and pressed into shape through five dough rollers. It is much more uniform than manual pressing, and the taste is more muscular. 'As the master spoke and operated, he saw the snow-white dough being' tossed 'by the machine and turned into noodles of uniform thickness in the blink of an eye. Brother Wang's eyes lit up was that this equipment can actually 'customize the portion'-want a 200-gram serving of fine flour? 300-gram serving of lasagna? As long as you enter a parameter in the control system, the machine can produce accurately, and even the weighing process is saved.

    'Traditionally, when making noodles on a single machine, the quantity is all controlled by hand. Not only is it inefficient, it is impossible to deal with' ghost scales 'at all. After our equipment is upgraded, we can batch produce fixed quantities of noodles according to the needs of different channels. The foot scale, nine-liang scale, and eight-liang scale can all be adjusted. The key is that the error range for each piece is very small.' Master's words inspired Brother Wang: 'Isn't this a sharp weapon specifically used to treat' ghost scales '? '

   just wants to say something first. We are not teaching everyone to play the evil tricks of 'ghost weigh'. Brother Wang made it clear: ' We rely on word of mouth to do business, and we will never lack a pound to be able to weigh. But when we encounter others using 'ghost scales' to play tricks, we must have a way to deal with them-you play tricks, and I will use technology to break the game. '

Sanhao Noodle Machine 's plan is very simple: for the 'problem channels' such as Shangchao, use equipment to customize the noodles with the 'nine-liang scale' specification, which not only conforms to market pricing habits, but also avoids the disadvantage of direct price comparison; For customers with long-term cooperation such as canteens and factories, we insist on having enough weight and retaining customers with quality and integrity. There is no need to weigh every bag anymore, saving manpower and avoiding disputes.'Brother Wang calculated the bill and upgraded the equipment, the production capacity will increase by at least 50%, and he can also free up energy to develop new customers. Why is talking about this today? During the May Day holiday, we all lamented that 'labor is glorious', but for us old iron workers who do physical business, there is real hardship behind labor: we get up early and choose raw materials and press noodles, for fear of quality problems; we do business separately, but we must prevent others from playing tricks. But Brother Wang's matter also reminds us: In this era of 'intelligence + efficiency', it is not enough to rely on hard work alone. You must also understand technology and be flexible.

    Three Good Things want to say that 'ghost scale' is ultimately a crooked trick, and relying on deception and deception will not go far. When doing business, we either use the 'smart foot scale' routine like Brother Wang, or stick to our original intention and do the long-term-after all, what can truly retain people is always excellent quality and tangible reputation.

Lao Tie in front of the screen, have you ever encountered a 'ghost scale' in your business? What do you think about this? Welcome to leave messages and chatter in the comment area, and let's think about how to use 'practical tactics' to break the 'crooked gate'!
