"After we sign this restaurant up, we're going to sign this one and that one!" My new job working for onlinerestaurants.com is going quite swell. Here's what my job entails; I'll go into as many restaurants as I can and approach them about increasing their bottom line by utilizing the service. If we generate orders for them through our site, we're entitled to a percentage of the net sale. Before I get too excited, they're are a couple of drawbacks. The main one is finding the decision maker! Once you find that person, you then have to convince him or her why your service is superior to others. Well, after much thought and discussion I decided to move the service into the Chinatown section of Las Vegas and, uh, how do I say this? Let's put it this way. I believe I've found the Garden of Eden.
"I don't care if I live to be a thousand, I will never see anything more beautiful then what I witnessed the other day with my friend Kam in Chinatown." At the time, I was describing to my father the sheer ease of which my friend Kam was able to sign up two restaurants in Chinatown without even breaking a sweat. "He just walked into the place and told them how the service worked. They said alright and where do I sign. Ten minutes later I was walking out of the place with a contract in my hand ready to go. One last thing, you know how people say that Asians are hard to deal with or cheap; Not the case at all when Kam signs them up. I didn't have to move my rate one bit!" I may sound redundant, but let's go over the job and the service one more time.
My job is to sign up as many restaurants for our service as possible. The closer they're together the better! The Chinatown section of Las Vegas literally has 300-400 restaurants that you could throw a rock at from each other! Add in the fact that the services I'm offering are untethered by competion in the area and you see why I'm getting excited about this opportunity. "Hey Rob, if we can sign a few of them up and show them that our service will make them money, all of them will sign up!" My friend Kam has got to be the best salesman I've ever met. He's 54, speaks fluent Mandarin, Cantonese, and English. I've told him a hundred times that he could make a million dollars if he would follow my instructions. You know what? He's finally starting to listen.
I like to end every post of mine with a thought I'm having...Call it the village idiot thought of the day. "Obviously, I'm big on China! Why not? They're the guys with all the money! They're the guys who are making moves in Las Vegas! I've stated a number of times in my blog about how I thought their was room for a small town white guy in Chinatown. Maybe people who read this blog are catching on to what I'm talking about?"
