It's better to arrange the meeting to arrive at 1 hour half an hour after work yesterday afternoon. At this time, the headmaster has dealt with some daily things, so he has time to listen to your briefing, and at the same time, he should pay attention to avoiding the rest time to avoid being disturbed. The best place is in the principal's office. You should know in advance whether there is a computer in the venue.
Second, there must be a plan. Generally, it takes 2-3 meetings with the school to discuss cooperation before reaching an agreement.

So the goal is different every time. The first goal is to reach an oral cooperation intention, and the second goal is to sign a letter of intent for cooperation and formulate a detailed product promotion plan.
Precautions:
In the process of introducing online schools to schools, schools often ask various questions. How to explain these problems can refer to FAQ. When overcoming the school's objections, we should pay attention to "listening and asking questions".
Listening: When introducing products, we should pay attention to listening to each other's feedback. Sometimes you have to write down each other's questions, and sometimes you have to ask more questions to find out each other's real intentions.
Question: Everyone can ask questions, but how to ask questions effectively? Generally speaking, there are two kinds of questions. One is a "closed question", that is, a question that can be answered with "yes" or "no". The other is "open question", which can't be answered by "yes" or "no", such as "what" and "how to do it".

(1), contact with IT industry distributors (computer software, hardware, network engineering, etc.). ) establish a distribution network; According to statistics, 95% of users now buy computers to let their children learn to use them. When buying a computer, you definitely need corresponding learning software. Computer retailers have established a certain trust relationship with their original customers, and also have the foundation of online education. Retailers have outlets, have advantages in external publicity, and bring their own passengers. Moreover, the overall profit of the computer market is gradually declining, and there is basically no profit in itself, so now computer dealers are also looking for suitable projects.

(2) Cooperate with radio and television departments and telecommunications companies (Internet providers, telecommunications departments, etc.). ) jointly expand the distance education market; At present, the competition between telecommunications departments is also very fierce. Under the premise that there is no room for improvement in products and services, how customers choose their own services, then the competition is the additional services. Our products should be closely integrated with their services. Therefore, these two products, as bundled sales, undoubtedly increase the competitive weight of telecom companies. And we also achieved the goal of selling products. It is a win-win cooperation for both parties. The details of specific cooperation can be discussed according to local actual conditions, including how to distribute profits.
(3) Cooperate with educational software and hardware providers (campus network, multimedia teaching, etc.). ), and it is suggested that sales should be bundled with distance education projects. The main purpose of cooperation is to use the sales channels and storefronts of these partners to save a lot of sales costs for their early operations. Because our online products of Qingda Education are mainly aimed at the online learning of lieutenant colonel students, they can be bundled with other teaching software to achieve the purpose of using customers more effectively, and at the same time provide students with more choices.
(4) Cooperation with bookstores and video stores. As a sales outlet, use the original customer base to further develop Qingda Education Sunshine Card users. Because the current bookstores and video stores have been greatly impacted by the development of the internet in recent years, the business is not prosperous and there is a downward trend. At the same time, due to this type of storefront, in the initial stage of cooperation, the market operation was rather chaotic. As a result, many businesses have gradually lost confidence in continuing to operate, and they have a large customer base. Therefore, it is also a good choice for him to choose online cooperation with Qingda Education. First, he can keep his old customers; However, it can be tied with his project to promote the development of the original project. After our cooperation, we only need to put a computer in the middle of the bookstore as a demonstration area, and usually we need people who know the basic operation of computers. On weekends or peak seasons, find someone who knows both computers and education to explain. Bundled sales, such as buying a big education sunshine card and sending teaching AIDS.
(5) Take advantage of the profit space between the agent price and the market price, and take appropriate price promotion or preferential gift activities. For example, if you buy a clear education sunshine card, you can send students a USB flash drive or other gifts to increase product sales.
