Now, the shop was ready.
They would do some promotions via her best friend’s live broadcast room and then they could officially open for business.
But when she thought of this, Zhao Yao received a call from Tingting.
“Zhao Yao, are you there? Are there any more potted tomatoes you sent me last time? Is there a link to the seller? You don’t know right, but a lot of people have been asking me these days. I’m going crazy,” Tingting’s voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Hehe! Tingting, I’m sure that’s the reason why you got a lot more people in your live broadcast room.” Zhao Yao laughed.
“Hey, maybe they just came over on a whim to take a look. When they’re not curious anymore, they’ll be gone,” Tingting said with a smile.
“Okay, then I’ll help you ask if his potted tomato shop is open? If it is, I’ll send you the link to his online shop.”
Zhao Yao said.
“Oh, why do I feel like I’m being used by you guys? But if he wants me to promote it, how much is he going to pay me for the advertising?” Although Tingting looked very adorable, she was actually very shrewd.
After all, there were many beautiful female streamers and handsome male streamers in the live broadcast room who were helping some online shops advertise their products.
There were even some streamers who put up links to their own shops in the live broadcast room.
From daily necessities, snacks, to other bigger necessities, they were all sold through these platforms. In this way, it could be considered as earning extra money.
“Alright, let me help you ask.”
“But you mustn’t ask him for too much advertising fees. Otherwise, I won’t go easy on you. After all, he doesn’t have much money now,” Zhao Yao agreed immediately.
“Oh, I was just testing you. I didn’t expect you to show your tail and side with your boyfriend so quickly. But then again, when can I meet him?” Tingting immediately teased with a smile.
“Okay, I don’t want to talk to you anymore.” Zhao Yao hung up the phone, then called Ye Heng and repeated Tingting’s words.
However, Ye Heng was used to this business model.
“My shop will officially open tomorrow. As for the advertising fees, I’ll give her three hundred thousand yuan per month first. When the sales of the products increase in the future, I will increase the fees again. In addition, if a new product is launched later, we can also give her priority to do live streaming to increase the traffic.”
Ye Heng thought for a moment and said.
The seeds that would be cultivated later would definitely be more powerful than the top-tier Tomato No. 1. If Tingting got it in advance, it could also bring him a lot of traffic and subsequently revenue.
It would be a win-win situation for both parties.
However, Tingting’s live broadcast room might have to change modus operandi, from the original gaming live broadcast room to a live broadcast room related to planting.
“A new product!” Zhao Yao was immediately excited when she heard that.
After all, in the link that had just appeared, the top-tier Tomato No. 1 had already shocked countless people.
If another product appeared, it would probably be very powerful.
Zhao Yao couldn’t help but feel a little expectant now.
She was very clear that Ye Heng’s major in university was related to plants. However, she didn’t expect that he could really develop a new type of plant.
“Yeah, you can say so. Also, the next product might not be potted plants. It could be fruits and vegetables grown in outdoor soil, or it could be garden flowers, there are all possibilities.”
“But the most important thing now is to target the stomach. Therefore, our next product is lettuce,” Ye Heng explained.
However, he was very clear about the reason why he chose lettuce.
Firstly, it was because lettuce tasted very good and could be eaten raw.
In the Western countries, lettuce was part of their diet and it could be used to make garden salads. Furthermore, lettuce was an ideal choice of food among women.
…
After ending an exciting game of King, Tingting suddenly yawned.
Looking at the clock on the wall, it was already 11 o’clock. Just as she was about to end the live broadcast, her mind lit up.
She suddenly thought of what she had said to her best friend today. When she thought of the marketing fee that was worth three hundred thousand yuan, she was really a little surprised.
She didn’t expect Zhao Yao’s boyfriend would give her such a high advertising fee.
“Alright, everyone, today’s live broadcast ends here. Thank you for your attention and tips. Also, before you go to bed, you can take a look at a certain Cosmic Planting flagship store.”
“You can take a look at my computer screen.”
After that, Tingting turned on the camera and moved it to the page that had just been opened on the computer screen.
“What the hell? Could it be that our live streamer, who has a bright future, is also going to be corrupted by money?”
“What a joke. Streamer, do you still think that we are naive people from the past? We will not fall for the capitalist trick again.”
“That’s right. There are too many tricks nowadays. We will not fall for it.”
One particular netizen who was still in the live broadcast room saw the advertisement that Tingting suddenly inserted and was immediately speechless.
“Everyone, wait, listen to me first. This shop doesn’t sell those unethical products. Instead, the shop sells these tomato plants that are on my computer table.”
Tingting said with a smile.
“F*ck? There’s really a shop.”
“Brothers, hurry up and check if it’s real.”
“Everyone, I’ve seen it. It’s real, but an ordinary tomato seedling costs 50 yuan. This is even more expensive than an ordinary ornamental plant. The most important thing is that they don’t include free shipping.”
“Brothers, don’t worry, this shop states that if the product is fake, it can be returned within 15 days, which means that if you return it, you don’t have to pay for the shipping fee.”
“This sounds good, I can buy some back and let my parents grow it.”
The netizens that were still in the broadcast room immediately rushed into Ye Heng’s Cosmic Planting store.
To them, 50 yuan was still reasonable. Not to mention those rich tycoons, as long as they were happy, the tips that they give to the streamer could be more than 10,000 yuan.
Therefore, a few rich people took the initiative and bought back ten potted plants at one go.
From the looks of it, they were probably using these potted plants to decorate their villa.
With nearly 500,000 fans, the purchasing power reached 1/10.
At this time, the turnover of Ye Heng’s flagship store instantly reached 50,000 yuan, and it was still increasing.
It was also because people saw the growth process of the tomatoes through the live broadcast room and this resulted in the increase in the number of buyers.
It was also at this time that Ye Heng’s flagship store suddenly became popular.
But unsurprisingly, the turnover on the second day was estimated to be much lower.
However, after a month, there would be a breakout in turnover again.
“With so much trading volume, if we were to package it, it would also require a lot of work. It seems that we have to find some people to do it..”
