In the consulting business, except for the necessary expenses such as rent, decoration, water and electricity, there is little investment in other aspects, mainly in the research of "color season theory"

The insiders calculated an account for the reporter: generally speaking, the investment in participating in professional training and purchasing professional tools is about 6.5438+0 million yuan, plus various expenses such as rent, utilities, telephone, transportation and publicity. The cost of opening a shop by yourself is less than 6.5438+0 million yuan a year. But the gross profit is not low. Based on the charge of 2600 yuan, the average gross profit of each customer can reach 1 000 yuan. As long as there are about 10 customers coming to the door every month, there is no problem with capital preservation, and then all of them are pure profits, and the average profit rate can reach 400%.

Color consulting industry rose abroad in 1980s, and played a decisive role in personal image, product packaging, environmental design and so on.

The industry has calculated an account: the investment in general training courses is about 6.5438+0 million yuan, plus the cost of renting stores, which is about 6.5438+0 million yuan. According to the calculation of 2800 silver cards per person, the gross profit of each customer alone is 1000 yuan. As long as there are more than 90 customers, they will "get to the bottom", not to mention that according to the market situation of color consultation, there are at least hundreds of customers in each store, and the high profit value is exciting.
