Saturdays are “be the customer” days in the field for our\u00a0yufin<\/a> team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

1. Location, location, location.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

One of our super users a.k.a. Powersuki located at the corner of a side-road does 3X the business of a 50% larger store just 20 metres down that side-road.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

2. Human connect matters. It builds trust faster. Our key accounts salesperson managing our super users (Powersuki) gave a small, personalized memento last week to his Powersukis.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Average orders from these merchants went up 10% this week. An understanding human who listens to you and solves a few problems, works better than a discount or an app notification sometimes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

But weekly ordering will no longer mean dictating each item and entering it one by one in the yufin app, taking fifteen minutes, in two weeks from now.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The sales ambassadors will be spending more than ten minutes solving problems, advising and guiding how to grow their business, and less than five on the weekly ordering. Stay tuned!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

3. Am not alone as an Indian building in this growing market. Even on empty suburban roads outside the city, there is a Bajaj and a TVS to give us company. They’ve been here much longer.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

4. From Jollibee to jalebi. You can find anything if you know where to look. Treated the team to fresh, crispy jalebis.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
