What does shopping guide mean? What is it?
Shopping guide: usually a long-term behavior. In a sense, they are salesmen under special circumstances and terminal salesmen who directly face customers. They are stable for a certain period of time (for example, one or two years). In specific work, they leave a good impression on customers through on-site decent behavior and high-quality service, thus establishing a good brand image and corporate image, so that customers can buy on the spot or form the impulse to buy later; At the same time, the shopping guide is usually responsible for the terminal construction and maintenance of the store and properly coordinate the customer relationship. Career overview Shopping guide is literally the process of guiding customers to make purchases. Consumers often have less doubts when they enter the store, which hinders the realization of buying behavior, while shopping guide is to relieve consumers' psychological doubts and help consumers realize buying. The main duty of a shopping guide is to help consumers make decisions and realize purchases. After purchase, we should also be responsible for tracking the service (mainly by telephone) and assisting technicians to complete the final construction for consumers, so as to ensure the gradual realization of the card content and form a good word-of-mouth effect in the minds of consumers. Common doubts of consumers are: 1, price doubts: saving money as much as possible is the focus of most people's consideration on the premise of ensuring quality. 2, quality doubts: afraid of being deceived, quality can not be guaranteed. 3. Effect doubt: Whether the effect can be achieved is also a major concern of consumers. The emergence of professional shopping guide is the inevitable product of "buyer's market" and "channel economy". In fact, "channel economy" is closely related to "buyer's market": due to the formation of buyer's market, the position of channel terminal dealers is increasingly prominent, so terminal manufacturers not only demand resources such as price, booth and POP, but also emphasize terminal construction and delivery capacity. In order to maintain the terminal image and ensure the delivery capacity, factories often have to submit to the terminal business. On the other hand, sending shopping guides often becomes an effective weight for factories to force terminal businesses to make money, settle accounts and provide better positions. Shopping guide is an important link to complete the whole sales work and realize the exchange of goods and money. The shopping guide is the key person to realize this key leap. Getting customers to pay for the company's products is a difficult process. A shopping guide must have sufficient reasons to make customers willing to buy products and make customers feel that the products he buys are worth the money. To do this, we must explain the function of the products sold in detail and patiently, and let the customer know that this function is exactly what he needs. To do this, shopping guides need to use a lot of promotion means and skills in the promotion process. In addition, the shopping guide is the only factory staff that customers can contact. The shopping guide embodies the company image. Before the customer has a deep understanding of the product, his knowledge of the company directly comes from the feelings and impressions given to him by the shopping guide. Good shopping guide service can cultivate a large number of loyal customers and improve brand awareness for the company, and can cultivate potential markets, because good promotion service can enable customers to do the following three things: customers repeat purchases-customers-customers recommend to buy famous sales figures: 1: 8: 25: 1 influence 1 customers, which can indirectly affect 8 customers. By analogy, if you offend 1' s customers, it will also bring corresponding losses, and the losses need you to pay twice as much effort to make up. It can be seen that it is an important duty of every shopping guide to provide customers with high-quality products and satisfactory services. Marketing skills 1.

Excellent shopping guides often use customer recommendations to get many new customers, which is the secret of doubling their performance. Because of serving a customer well, customers may recommend at least five new customers. After the products are sold, excellent shopping guides should not forget to ask old customers to recommend new customers. The so-called customer chain is that the old customers continue to extend and form our new customers. Customer recommendation standard line: Thank you for your trust in our company. A successful person and celebrity like you, (or) a successful entrepreneur like you, you must have many friends around you, or (or) a popular person like you must have many friends. I wonder if there are any friends around you who also need the company's products? If so, please introduce it.
