Tea Marketing Planning Part I
I. Introduction
However, consumers' understanding of tea culture is not profound. Treat people with tea, treat guests with tea, has become a way of hospitality, the way of doing things. Tea people in China advocate a natural and extraordinary lifestyle, so do drinking tea and making tea. Tea was born between the peaks and valleys in Shan Ye, and exposed to deep valleys and rocks in spring. Both of them are bred in the beautiful valleys of green mountains and become symbols of being far away from the hubbub and close to nature. The cleanliness, purity and purity of tea are the tastes that people pursue. Both man and nature have the same fate of giving up. Ming Luquan's pursuit of tea tasting is to seek lofty artistic conception and harmony in tranquility and indifference, simplicity and frankness. Interesting in the pot? In the process of making tea, whether it is tea and water, or people and art, it is an extraordinary spirit and a high-level aesthetic exploration. For today's people, drinking a cup of tea is so particular that most of them are difficult to understand. That's because the ancient form and content of tea ceremony in China have been lost, and many people don't even know that there is China Tea Ceremony. This product is closely connected with the tea culture in China, which conforms to the culture of China and shows the difference from other teas, thus opening up a new tea market and promoting the development of tea industry.
Second, the purpose of marketing planning
Break the layout of selling tea in the industry, such as Tieguanyin and Maojian tea, but create a brand to let consumers have a new understanding of tea. Drinking tea is no longer a living habit, but has risen to a realm and a taste. Combine tea with people's personality and taste, open new sales channels and occupy the market.
Third, the marketing environment analysis
(A) the status of tea in China
1. Tea is a traditional drink in China, with consumers all over the country.
2. The tea production in China is increasing year by year, ranking first in the world, but the overall quality is not good.
3. The marketing strategies of existing tea brands are basically based on the origin brands of tea, with few bright spots.
(B) the disadvantages of tea marketing
1 and the six major tea series all continue the traditional production technology, resulting in the same technology and homogeneous products.
2. Tea name and packaging are the same cultural style, lacking freshness.
3. Different degrees of green, bitter, astringent, boring and stale make young consumers avoid it.
4. The antique teahouse is out of proportion to the indecent behavior and consumption performance of tea drinkers.
5. The promotion of tea is based on inheriting history and promoting culture. The tea culture in China is extensive and profound, which often fails to achieve the expected results, leaving consumers puzzled.
Most young consumers think that drinking tea is an outdated behavior.
(3) Competition situation
At present, there is no tea named after Chinese culture in the market, and most of them have regional brands for decades or even hundreds of years. Therefore, it is obviously very difficult to promote China's tea culture with regional brands, so once Boran tea enters the market, it will be out of the state of no competitors.
(4) Sales channels
Most of the tea in the market is sold by small teahouses or retail stores, and the sales channel is single, which is not suitable for expanding the market scale. Tea is regional, and it is difficult to sell in large quantities due to the restrictions of transportation and preservation.
Fourthly, SWOT analysis.
(1) Advantages: This kind of tea directly plays an aspect of China tea culture, and makes consumers understand that drinking tea is not only a living habit handed down from ancient times, but also a charm embodiment of life realm and people's taste. Quiet and indifferent, let nature take its course, which deeply embodies the essence of China Taoist culture. Whether it is a gift or as appropriate, it can reflect consumers' rich experience and unique taste.
(2) Disadvantages
Because this kind of tea has just entered the market, consumers' cognitive level is definitely not very high, so they have to invest a lot in publicity.
Manpower and material resources, and the previous market research work is also indispensable. Generally speaking, publicity is the top priority of sales.
(3) Probability
With the improvement of people's quality of life and the constant change of life taste, consumers' pursuit of spirit is also extremely urgent, so face consumption has gradually become a new consumption mode. Consumers no longer pay attention to the quality, price or practicality of products, but pay more attention to the face value brought by their addition. With the domestic industrial chain getting longer and longer, people pay more attention to products that can give themselves gold. To sum up, this kind of tea still has a very broad market.
(4) threats
In order to better develop the tea industry in China market, some enterprises began to position the tea market as culture. At this time, the tea that enters the market with the brand-new concept of China tea culture is bound to cause an uproar, and may also produce fierce cultural competition.
To sum up, the promotion of this tea should be preemptive, ahead of any competitors, and occupy the tea consumption market with preconceived ideas, thus opening up sales.

? Tea Marketing Planning Part II
First, the reasonable positioning of tea marketing planning scheme
What is the most important thing in business operation? Is it popular? This is not superstition. Earth gas? Mainly depends on whether there is a business atmosphere in this place. Is this business atmosphere suitable for the goods we handle? Popular? Mainly refers to whether there are customers in the place where we operate, and whether these customers have psychological motives to buy our goods.
As a special commodity, tea not only has the functions of drinking and health care, but also embodies its cultural and artistic value. It can make people pure, elegant and clean, and return to nature-the choice of tea shops can be summarized as follows according to the characteristics of tea:
1, bustling commercial center: These areas have strong business atmosphere, large passenger flow, complex shopping levels and high purchase frequency. Most consumers have strong characteristics of seeking quality, quality and beauty, but the cost of house price or rent is relatively high, and the competition is particularly fierce. Therefore, before entering, you must carefully consider whether you have human, financial and material resources, and if you have the conditions, enter? Business center? Of course, what is preemption? Commanding point? So what! However, if you don't have the strength, you must not act rashly. These places need high-grade tea, so you should pay attention to the brand and the variety of famous tea. Tea sets should be matched with tea books related to tea, such as purple sand, porcelain and glass tea sets.
2. Hotels and restaurants: Hotels and restaurants are places where business travelers live. Most of them don't bring tea, so buy them at any time. And in order to visit relatives and friends, bring some tea, which is elegant and not vulgar, and the restaurant should also use tea. Guests come to make tea? This is the traditional etiquette of China people. It is worthwhile to open a tea shop next to the hotel group, and the rent should not be too high. At the same time, you can rent the management hall of the hotel, which can enhance the style and combine it with tea art.
3. Traffic Avenue: These places have a large flow of people, mainly to attract customers. Therefore, these places pay attention to the external attraction of tea shops, with novel varieties and preferential prices, which are suitable for some businesses with older brand names and larger intangible assets. It is best not to blindly open a tea shop.
4. Residential areas: Tea is a necessity for residents' consumption, and the risk of choosing residential areas is generally small, but at the same time, the business styles of tea shops are different for different levels of residents.
A. Old areas: These residential areas are characterized by primitive China, industriousness and simplicity. Tea should not be too high-grade, tend to the middle and low grades, pursue low profits, the sales staff should be flexible, pay attention to popularity, the quality of tea should be stable and the reputation should be good. B. New District: The consumption of this kind of residents is relatively advanced, and their material wealth and spiritual civilization are relatively improved, requiring operators to have tea varieties.
The grade is slightly higher, the varieties are richer, and more new varieties are needed to keep up with the new trend of tea varieties.
C. High-end property areas: These people are the first to get rich after the reform and opening up. They have a high living standard and a fast pace. To open a tea shop in this area, the taste is higher and the price is higher. It is required that the quality of sales staff should be better, the packaging should be exquisite, the packaging speed of tea should be faster, and some high-grade gifts and high-grade tea sets can be added at the same time, and the business hours should be longer.
D. industrial residential area: now some cities have formed an industrial area, such as veteran cadres' area, teachers' area and star area. Tea operators should adopt different management methods according to the characteristics of different groups of people.
E. bazaars: these places have a large passenger flow, but most consumers are good shoppers. They demand affordable tea, and they often take preferential measures to promote sales.
F, near the school: intellectuals are the main customers, the facade should not be too luxurious, there should be many varieties, the price must be low, and the salesperson should have rich knowledge of tea.
There are some other places: tourist attractions, for example, are not suitable for large-scale operation, and some commemorative packaged teas should be properly managed.
Second, the tea shop decoration tea marketing planning scheme
Tea shop decoration mainly highlights the characteristics of tea industry, so that customers can have a harmonious and beautiful psychology. The decoration of tea shop can be divided into external decoration and internal decoration. External decoration mainly attracts customers to browse in the shop, while internal decoration mainly stimulates customers' purchasing motivation.
There are the following elements:
1, external styling: must the external styling stand out? Tea? Elegance and new soul.
2. Signboards: Signboards are permanent advertisements, which should stimulate consumers' curiosity, attract consumers' attention, facilitate consumers' memory, and also reflect the style of tea shops. Generally, tea shops use traditional styles, with rectangular plaques, large pieces of black paint as the background, gold-plated characters as the roll call, and celebrities are invited to write and carve them, which is solemn and magnificent. Alternatively, it can be painted with varnish, inscribed by celebrities, and then carved.
3. Couplets: If you use a good pair of couplets, it can better reflect the cultural and artistic atmosphere of the tea shop.
4. Window: The window is the first exhibition hall of a tea shop, which can directly stimulate consumers' desire to buy. Try to design the window as large as possible, and you can put some attractive tea leaves in it, such as fresh-keeping tea, scented tea and health tea with loud advertisements, and you can put a proper amount of tea sets. You can make a few cups of beautiful tea in a transparent glass and change several varieties every few days. The lights in the window should be brighter, and the tea, tea set and tea on display should form a beautiful picture.
5. Store door: The store door of the tea shop should be as big as possible, and the lighting should be good. At the same time, we should also consider security.
6. External lighting: The external lighting of the tea shop must be bright, preferably white or green, not red. If you use one or two green spotlights, you can highlight the attraction of the tea shop.
7. Store name: The name of the tea shop mainly reflects the unity of the operator's personality and the harmony of tea culture. A good name is the key. You can use traditional time-honored brands or combine your own thinking according to the characteristics of tea.
Third, the pricing rationalization of tea marketing planning scheme
The selling price of tea has always been a difficult problem. The upfront price is too high. Through the media, consumers? Stop looking at the tea? . Nowadays, due to fierce competition, many people sell too low, and some even lower than the cost price, resulting in vicious competition. I think there must be reasonable pricing while maintaining good quality. First of all, we must determine the production cost price. After calculating the operating cost and your reasonable profit, we should make a reasonable price with reference to the market. We can neither make huge profits nor compete at low prices.
Fourth, do a good job in the health and surrounding environment of tea marketing planning scheme.
Tea is a very delicate drink with strong rot absorption. Hygiene in the shop is very important. Shops must be clean. Counter, shelf, tea bucket and tea box should be cleaned at least twice a day, leaving no dust. Pay special attention to the surrounding environment and see if there are any odorous objects nearby, such as perfume and alcohol.
Five, tea marketing planning scheme to improve the overall quality of sales staff.
The key to the operation of tea shop lies in the comprehensive quality of the clerk, who is the eyes of tea shop. Improving the comprehensive quality of shop assistants is the most critical link to open a good tea shop. As a milk tea clerk, you must first have a good cultural quality, preferably one or two.
To learn a foreign language, you should master the professional knowledge about tea, including the types, producing areas, quality standards, characteristics, brewing methods and storage methods of tea. At the same time, there are comprehensive knowledge, such as tea ceremony, tea ceremony, tea tasting, tea fighting, tea history and so on. The clerk is the key to dealing with customers directly, which is related to whether the tea shop can produce benefits.
Six, tea marketing planning scheme to establish a standardized financial system.
Management must establish a standardized financial system, which can not be ignored. No matter who you use, you should do a good job in the accounts of purchasing, selling, stocking, preferential treatment, cash loss reporting and month-end inventory.
Seven, tea marketing planning scheme to establish a strict business system.
As an operator, we must do a good job in the business system, otherwise, the management will be chaotic.
(1) Go to work at 8: 00 a.m. on time, improve the hygiene in the store, keep the counter clean and get ready for business.
(2) Start business at 8: 30 on time, and wear the work clothes neatly. Salespeople are not allowed to wear makeup, perfume or dye their nails when they go to work.
(3) In the course of business:
1, smiling service, dignified behavior;
2, when selling goods, be accurate, accurate in pricing, accurate in collection, take pains to ask and take pains;
3. When delivering goods, be polite, and don't throw things around.
4. When you meet unreasonable customers, you should scold, patiently explain and warmly receive every customer.
(4) After work, they clean up cash, pay money, clean up business tools, sort out goods and clean up shelves.
Eight, tea marketing planning scheme to do a good job of after-sales service.
In the process of closing the transaction, the clerk must do a good job in pre-sales and in-sales services, which is of course. But after the transaction, the customer has paid, and after-sales service is particularly important, such as packaging and bagging. Send the guests out politely and leave a good impression on the customers. At the same time, some customers have to return or exchange goods because they are not at ease with the taste of our store and can't find a reason to refuse. At the same time, they should set up customer files and listen more.
Nine, tea marketing planning, advertising and promotion.
The importance of advertising and promotion to enterprises is well known. If you have the conditions, you can make full use of TV and newspapers. Those who do not have the conditions can also use salespersons and salesmen to print some small advertisements for publicity. Promotions should be in various forms and can be discounted. You can also give some tea-related gifts according to the purchase amount, such as tea sets and tea books. Whether advertising or promotion, we must win the trust of customers and not deceive customers. Your words and deeds are consistent.
Ten, tea marketing planning plan to prepare for long-term operation.
As a special kind of consumer goods and artworks, tea needs a long time for consumers to accept and evaluate its taste, taste, intrinsic substance and grade. This requires the operator to be patient. It doesn't matter if you open a tea shop for a few months, or if you can't make money in a year. We should constantly publicize and improve according to customers' requirements, although opening a tea shop is not like the eight-year war of resistance. On protracted war? But it will take two or three years, which may be a misunderstanding that many tea merchants can't get out of. And gradually move towards the chain: because the modern market operation is more and more standardized, the profits are more and more even. If you run one or two tea shops with good benefits, and you have accumulated a lot of intangible assets, you must never sit still, let alone spend the money you earn. You should sum up successful experience, cultivate talents, expand business points and move towards chain on the basis of gradual stability. Only in this way can we save costs, be conducive to competition and be invincible in the tea industry. To open a chain, you can first set up a distribution center, establish and improve various rules and regulations, select talents, and copy the points that have been managed. In this way, your business will continue to grow and develop.
Marketing methods of tea (Part III)
As an operator, to meet the market demand, we must first understand the tastes of consumers in this region: whether the final decision on the quality of tea lies with consumers, and the key for operators is to supply it according to consumers' tastes. Consumers in different regions have different tastes, and so do every region in different regions. This requires operators to make frequent investigations and studies, have extensive contact with consumers and update their tastes according to their needs.
Secondly, commodities should have an all-round three-dimensional structure: there is a difference between the three-dimensional structure of commodities and the complete variety:
One is to add different grades of tea on the basis of complete varieties, such as? Dahongpao? There are pre-Ming special grades, special grades and first grades; ? Black tea? what's up First spring, second spring, third spring? .
Second, it deals in tea and tea-related commodities, such as tea sets, tea books, refreshments, tea, tea health products, tea characters, tea paintings and Four Treasures of the Study.
Third, the commodity display is orderly: the commodity display directly affects consumers' feelings about the tea shop. Different kinds of tea and tea-related products must be displayed reasonably.
The first is classification, such as rock tea area, black tea area, gourmet tea area and tea set area.
Third, the grade can make consumers clear at a glance. It is best to put a brief introduction of tea (origin, grade, characteristics, etc.). ) in each area and then the overall layout. According to the overall environment of your business, tea, tea sets, etc. It should be structured with the inside and outside of your store, so that the displayed goods are in harmony, forming a pleasing and refreshing three-dimensional picture, giving customers a feeling of lingering, and at the same time reflecting order, diversity and diversity.
Then it is necessary to integrate tea tasting, tea shops and tea art. If the area of tea shops allows and the economic strength can keep up, it is best to integrate tea tasting, refreshments and tea art. ..
A unique tea shop is connected with a small teahouse with unique flavor. The teahouse has an elegant environment, with several calligraphy and paintings, potted plants, original wooden tables and chairs, an exquisite tea set on the table, some exquisite refreshments and a well-dressed tea girl hanging on the wall. Come to several tea performances regularly, or perform for a long time, or set up guzheng guqin to play famous ancient songs, so that customers have a special mood.
Last but not least, it is necessary to do a good job in the hygiene of the store and its surrounding environment: tea is a very delicate drink, which is highly corrosive, and the hygiene in the store is very important. Storefronts must be clean, and counters, shelves, tea buckets and tea boxes should be cleaned every day without leaving any dust. Pay special attention to the surrounding environment and see if there are any odorous objects nearby, such as perfume and alcohol. See if there are any pollution sources around. In the same tea shop, keep the tea well first, so as not to lose its essential characteristics. Commodities that cannot be mixed with tea must not be operated in tea shops, such as Chinese herbal medicines. If the pollution source is quickly eliminated because of the peculiar smell, you must stop selling it and replace it with good tea, so as not to damage the intangible assets of the tea shop because of the small loss. With regard to staffing, miss tea ceremony is essential. Miss Tea is the eye of the tea shop. Strengthening the comprehensive quality of tea girls is the most critical link to open a good tea shop.
First of all, you should have a good cultural quality, and it is best to know one or two foreign languages. It is necessary to master the relevant professional knowledge of tea, including the types, producing areas, quality standards, characteristics, brewing methods and storage methods of tea. At the same time, there are comprehensive knowledge, such as tea ceremony, tea ceremony, tea tasting, tea fighting, tea history and so on. Miss Tea is the key to dealing with customers directly, which is related to whether a tea shop can produce benefits. Usually, she should have the following professional qualities:
Charming appearance: neat clothes, timely styles, elegant appearance, simple and frank expression, neither forcing a smile nor being dull and expressionless. Speak and behave kindly, naturally and enthusiastically, without long hair, hair dye, nail polish, perfume or expensive decoration. The posture is natural and decent, and you can't be artificial.
Keen observation and judgment: Does a tea girl have to have it? Pay attention to what you say. Function, through the identity of the customer's appearance, recommend different teas for different customers, so the transaction rate is definitely higher.
More flexible and accurate response ability: Due to different customer levels, the requirements are different, which requires Tea Girl's response ability to quickly respond to the different requirements of different customers, understand and understand the customer's purchase intention, and give a quick reply or provide services. Someone summed up the service reception method as follows? One, two, three? It is a detailed expression of flexible response.
Excellent language skills: Language is a tool for communication and the primary means to provide information and exchange feelings. Language expression is very important to business, which is directly related to the benefit of tea shop. Speak Mandarin, do not use service taboos, speak moderately, control your tone, be cordial, natural, polite and sincere, address people appropriately, use different polite languages for different customers and control flexibly.
Strong self-control: Because the working environment of Miss Tea Ceremony is monotonous and the customers have different personalities, the tea ceremony is required to be small.
I have a good grasp of emotions. No matter how picky customers are, I will keep a good attitude, take pains to ask questions and answer patiently. Don't get angry when I meet unreasonable customers, but explain patiently. ? Customer: Is that God? Please remember.
Have some financial knowledge: a tea girl should have some financial knowledge, including the ability to identify counterfeit money, foreign currency and various checks, as well as the correct filling of invoices. As a tea lady, you should also have various packaging capabilities, such as bag packaging, paper packaging, box packaging, barrel packaging and so on.
A tea girl in a tea shop must have good psychological quality, business ethics, professional knowledge and superb communication and reception skills. I hope that franchisees will try their best to provide professional training for your miss milk tea. ? Sharpen a knife and cut wood by mistake? This can't be ignored, otherwise it will cost? Huge sum? It is not cost-effective to open a tea shop just because the quality of tea Niang is poor.
In addition, the competition between tea girls is fierce, and the positions of manager, deputy manager and tea artist can be set up. One is to let them have targeted work, and the other is to create higher value for tea shops.
Finally, it is necessary to equip an excellent tea lady, which is also desirable in all aspects of treatment. The phenomenon of tea ceremony ladies changing jobs is very serious in this industry. An excellent tea ceremony lady is a hot cake that every operator is striving for. She? Value? It will be beyond your imagination. Without proper remuneration, it is impossible to attract outstanding tea ladies continuously, and the external environment cannot be ignored, otherwise it will hinder the normal development of the company.
