After so many years of development and accumulation, Taobao has now become a part of my and most lives. Although the consumption amount contributed is very small, it does bring some convenience to my life.

In 2007, I opened a Taobao store under the persuasion and suggestions of friends and colleagues. At that time, the concept of Taobao was to take a photo and sell things online. Give it a try. You don’t have to spend money anyway, and you can use your time after get off work to increase your income.

This should be considered my first business experience. I didn’t seriously research what products to look for. I just went to a friend’s store and took some random pictures and uploaded them, and the store was open. Then I left it alone without taking care of it. I vaguely remember doing more than 10 transactions. Because the products I selected were fragile and fragile, shipping was troublesome, so I didn’t feel happy doing it later and gave up directly.

A few years later, Taobao has reached a very popular stage. A large number of people open Taobao stores every day, and many people around them have opened Taobao stores, all wanting to earn more income in their free time. .

A friend saw that his relative was very successful in Taobao, so he quit his job and devoted himself to Taobao business. He watched him take photos of himself from a few pieces of clothing, upload them and later developed into a person in a room; a room. Two people; four or five employees in two rooms; seven or eight employees in 500 square meters; eighty-nine employees in 1,200 square meters. Starting from scratch, we made more than 6 million yuan in profits a year in 4 years. My friends tried to persuade me several times to follow suit, but they gave up after trying it.

Thinking back on it in the past few years, it is still because I have followed the crowd too much. The first time I opened a Taobao store was when I heard others say that I could make money by selling things online. As a result, I have “no time” most of the time. Later, a sentence that caused everyone to scream: Where did the time go? It is really painful to think about the past experience now.

The second experience was when I saw a friend’s great success and followed suit. I knew clearly that his wealth was accumulated over many years and success required years of hard work, but I still only stared at other people’s results. His grades at that time were a measure of my state at that time. I didn't think about how to do it, didn't study hard when my friends were willing to help, and finally gave up again.

After failing again and again, I am now just a consumer.

As a consumer, I really enjoy the convenience of Taobao. I have to buy it at once and go to several markets to buy it, but I can’t find it. Finally, Taobao 5.9 free shipping. Later, if I needed the goods that I didn’t know where to buy, most of them were sold on Taobao, which greatly saved time and enjoyed convenience.

Now think about it, if I, as a consumer, experienced the convenience of Taobao, would I have a clearer understanding of its value, so that I could clearly identify the product, believe in its future value, and operate it carefully? ? The answer should also be no. Because of the lack of thinking in the past and the attitude towards life that only cares about the present and takes things as they come, when consumers enjoy convenience, they no longer have the mindset of an operator.

Think about how crucial it is to be a person who lives in the future. Thinking determines the way out is a painful realization for me now.
