有人谈到新移民做生意没经验，所以做生意时不按市场规律行事。
有意思，什么是经验，请问比尔 盖茨靠什么经验创办的微软。

多付钱就能得到优质服务吗？未必。
我的经验就是：不买最贵，只买最好！

能详细谈谈你的经验吗？
“不买最贵，只买最好！”这句话跟跟没说一样，什么最好而又不贵？这句话你来加拿大前在戏匣子里经常听到的对“共产主义”的描述一样，它全等于Bull shit!

Re: yiyang

Again, here, we are talking about the driving school business. Do not lose the point please.



There is one thing I agree with you, we need a positive attitude to conduct this discussion.





1. Trying to apply your personal experience on the driving school business makes you look really not smart.

2. Business is business, what a classic word! Could you explain how can we use this sentence on a driving school business?

3. again, you tell us, what would you do if you were surrounded by cost-conscious customers from Chinese community? Here, again, I have to remind you, you are facing the customers from Chinese community, How to apply your high quality or customer service method? Does it work?

4. About “segment", "niche” probably, probably, I can tell you something that you never know.

5. I am working with co-operations everyday, I read a business report for Speedy cooperation before, it is about their target market, they did a comprehensive analysis with many kind of ethnic communities, for Chinese community, they draw a negative conclusion. Why these companies do not think Chinese community as their target market? Can this prove something?

6. Here, there is another point which I agree with you, we are not in the same level.

7. Home-Business is business also, why do you think home-business not a business?

Buddy! i am really sorry to get involved in this discussion. My mentor told me that i shouldn't argue. MZS, i apology for what i wrote, which might hurt some friends' feeling. I understand that Chinese-targeted business is always harder to do due to many factors influencing on customers'purchase decision.  

To MZS's questions, i am not interested in answnering them because i am just like to be a good listner and get good ideas from other. i am not smart, really, i am just a ordinary person. I just like to say same thing " business is business, it doesn't matter what size your business is",  MZS misunderstood my point.

Since MZS friend asked me if i have idea how to handle price-conscious Chinese customers, i can briefly talk a bit. (i don't try to look smart, i don't need to, honestly, i am not smart) I like to take driving school as an example.  Before you start your driving school, you know how many schools there are. You have talent to run a driving school, and you think you can make profit from the business. You draw up your business plan, investigating your competitors' operation. Most of schools look same charging from $200 to $400. So you know the low-end school can make money, but profit is very marginal. However, they have more students. High-end school can make better money from single student, but there are less students.  Now you, the owner of the business wonders why low-end school charge less, why high-end schools charge more. There are unique features alllowing high-end school to charge them.  How can a new owner survive these tough competition? You have to find a "niche", meaning how to position your shcool.  Now we are in Chinese community, and you, the new owner, want to serve own community.  You find all the Chinese schools are low-end ones. It is tough. You get a call, a Chinese boy there is asking "how much do you charge for 12 hours of road practice", you reply"$240", the guy screams on you" What?, that expensive? **** charges only $220", you are silent, then the boy asks " is it ok $200?", you may have no choice but say "Ok, you get deal". This is vicious cycle.  It is very tough for this business. Can you blame on customers? but who likes to pay more?

Ok, if i was the new owner, i would do that. i have to find profitable niche in this business. I know price war is not solution. I will ask for $240 for 12 hours. i will (1)instruct coaches that they must pick learning student from home and drop them the place they like. (2) coaches are NOT allowed to cut one minute (3) hire coaches who speak different dialects (4) use good condition of car (4) specialize in female learners who need special attention, patient coaching, and nice smile. Advertise your school in Luby or other newpapers featuring your services. Finally Word of mouth will pay off.  Do you think a female student will care the difference of $40.00?

This is just instant idea.  I am not trying to prove anything or argue sth, i just like to help my own fellows. Really, if you get rich, i am happy too. I am just a pure businessman, one thing in my brian is PROFIT.

I don't encourage Chinese customers to bargain, it is not Canadian way, please.

Good Lucky!

re: yinyang
I have no intention to argue with you, only different point. But a nice talk can make us think. It is really tough to do business in Chinese community, take a look at Chinatown, and then compare it with Jewish shopping center, we will see the difference. Why? it involves too much factors.
