When sales reach 50 million, how can a distributor successfully break through to 100 million? It's a dream, but the path ahead is fraught with obstacles.

糖烟酒周刊食品版The "3456" Rule for Terminal Sales: How to Truly Boost Sales When Products Aren't Moving
Sales volume equals terminal count multiplied by turnover rate and product variety. The more terminals covered, the faster individual products turn over, and the richer the product mix, the easier it is to achieve terminal sales. However, it's easier said than done. Currently, difficult sales and slow-moving products are headaches for companies and distributors. Without sales, there's no profit. Achieving terminal sales requires meticulous market cultivation—making people active and terminals vibrant, otherwise you're just running a warehouse. Products sitting in a warehouse naturally won't sell. So where does sales come from? The effect of covering one terminal versus ten thousand terminals is vastly different.

When I was a graduate student in 1999, I also read books on career planning and even made serious 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year plans for my life. The most memorable one was planning to marry at 30, believing a man should first establish his career to secure his future family. But in 2000, right after earning my master's degree, I got married to my current wife. You see, young people's life plans always lag behind reality.
