Zhang Yamei's Entrepreneurial Path

　　 Zhang Ya Mei After more than 20 years of unremitting efforts, we now have a successful career. Although the process of entrepreneurship is full of hardships and obstacles, she never gave up. Zhang Yamei's hard-working and persistent spirit of struggle is also worth learning.

　　 Quit the cloth business

In 1984, some people in town started small businesses. Zhang Yamei felt that her husband worked hard on his own. He also wanted to create a better old life for his parents, so he quit his business.

Zhang Yamei was fascinated by tailoring and sewing when she stayed at home after graduating from junior high school. Her sewing skills were also very famous in town. After resigning, Zhang Yamei wanted to use his craft to run a garment factory, and the business license was also granted. However, after the first batch of samples were ready, she found herself in a difficult problem. To run a garment factory, it is necessary to go out regularly to order, and it is not convenient for them to walk on their legs. Zhang Yuehua, who is illiterate, can not travel alone. After much deliberation, Zhang Yamei decided to do it again. cloth Business.

　　 The start-up capital is only 280 yuan.

"At that time, all the savings in the family were only 280 yuan, and it was not enough to buy a complete cloth. I looked everywhere for the cloth. Zhang Yamei's experience of buying cloth for the first time is still fresh in his memory.

On his way back to Beilun, Zhang Yamei saw a sign on a roadside children's clothing factory and decided to go in and have a look. Walking into the children's wear factory, Zhang Yamei found a pile of colourful rag on the ground. She persuaded the factory director to buy the pile of rags for 280 yuan, and wrapped them in two large bags, which was picked by Zhang Yuehua until she arrived home at supper time.

After returning home, Zhang Yamei made up more than 30 pieces of children's clothes and sold them out in ten days. "I do it on the side of the shop and sell it in a small shop, so I hang it on the bamboo pole that I am drying." Advertising signs " Zhang Yamei said with a smile. In the end, these children's clothing sold over 700 yuan. With this first profit, Zhang Yamei started the road of entrepreneurship.

　　 Please come to the tailor's shop.

After the booming business, Zhang Yamei felt that the 7 square meter shop was too small. She rented an outdoor booth and gradually expanded the purchase point to Shaoxing, Wenzhou, Jinhua and other places.

In 1987, Zhang Yamei rented the shop facing the street and ended the career of the outdoor stand. At that time, she had another idea, that is, ask the tailor to come to the store to make clothes for the customer who bought the cloth. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the first batch of tailor masters in Beilun, and later, almost every cloth shop had a fixed tailor. Over the past 20 years, Zhang Yamei and tailor have become good sisters and have never stopped working together.

In 1991, Zhang Yamei bought the one or two storefront of the store. She said that people's living standards have improved and the market for cloth has long been out of business.

For many people, self employment can quickly realize their dream of becoming a boss, and they can also embark on the road of becoming rich. But in the process of starting a business, there will be many difficulties that we can not imagine. We hope that all venture capital investors will be able to overcome them and not give up.
