The first three startups didn't make money.
Xu Hongbin 1987 was born in Huzhou, September 2006, he entered the University of Ningbo Information College computer Science, just stepped into the school half a month, he passed a tutor intermediary company to find a tutor job, in the weekend to live in the city of a junior student, 20 yuan per hour. Later, he found another two tutor, a weekend family went to class, most of the time, he weekends to 16 hours of class, earn 300 yuan.
This "crazy" tutoring life lasted about a year, and Xu Hongbin found it easier to make money as a tutoring agent. After a sophomore, he rented a house near the University of Ningbo, set up a tutor intermediary, in order to expand the influence of the tutor intermediary, he also published in the newspaper, wall ads. After six months, he found himself basically not making money, began to fade out of the industry.
Xu Hongbin's second venture was to buy and sell second-hand laptops. On the big two o'clock, by a friend introduced, he bought a batch of Japanese obsolete notebook computer, by posting on the campus forum, he sold more than 10 units, each has more than 200 yuan profit.
After the sale of this batch of computers, Xu Hongbin began to search for second-hand laptops on Taobao, found that the price is cheap, then bought, and then sold to better students. But a few months later, he found that the industry money is not good, because second-hand notebook computer after selling is very easy to break, a problem, buy a computer students will find him, he has to repair, spend time, and sometimes have to pay for the students to fill accessories. This venture, also did not make money.
Xu Hongbin's third venture is scalping books. On one occasion, when he was shopping in the Drum tower, he found that a bookstore's wuxia novels were selling well. And the price is very cheap, then with a very low discount into a large number of leisure time in Ningbo University set up a book, but eventually did not make money, because the network is very developed, many students will buy books from the Internet, and online books are very cheap.
Make money from the fourth time start a business
March 2009, Xu Hongbin in Taobao registered its own shop, just started to sell some brand-name clothing tail goods, business is very bad. Inadvertently, he listened to a baby jewelry wholesale business net friend said, now the best selling is baby saliva towel a small triangular cloth, embroidered on the children like the pattern, around the neck, can wipe saliva, can also be decorations.
He tried to enter a batch, will spit towel propaganda photos to the internet, immediately attracted many young parents eyes, business unusually prosperous. The price of each 4 yuan of saliva towel, he can sell online to 10 yuan, make a lot of money.
Xu Hongbin ecstatic, summed up a law: online to sell things, it must be physical store is difficult to buy, but also love the internet groups have to buy demand.
Slowly, Xu Hongbin in addition to selling saliva towel, but also sell infant sun caps, small backpacks and so on. In order to make their goods attractive, he began to frequently enter some foreign baby supplies website, high-priced network to buy foreign new baby ornaments, and then add their own ideas, after the transformation of their brand, directly to the factory orders.
Last September, in order to facilitate mass production, he specializes in infant and child supplies wholesale business, no longer retail, product sales increased greatly. Business is big, he often get up at 4 in the morning, go to Cixi Sheng Mountain fabric trading market into the fabric, and then non-stop to the procurement of fabrics sent to the factory processing, in order to timely delivery.
Today, his clients are mainly retail outlets for baby supplies. Xu Hongbin confidently said that in the national infant supplies online wholesalers, his sales have entered the top 10, the product began to sell abroad.
