Chapter 2: Haqua's Rest Day
Marui Yukie (54 year old single woman) was a saleswoman of the health drink Gokult.
Her main job was to sell fresh Gokult to houses that often order it in her designated area every day. In the morning, she would finish her housework and then head off to the distribution center. She would then change into her uniform, put the Gokult she had to deliver for the day itself into the cart and slowly deliver her goods through the path she decided on.
Also, one of her important jobs was to have new customers.
To promote her goods, she could decide to let people test a little bit of her products.
As Yukie was very confident in the products of her own company, she was often able to confidently hand the drinks over to customers who’d tasted it, and would never force them to buy it.
“Have some. It’s good. Nice and healthy.”
That’s her signature phrase.
What she focused on was a smile and honesty.
“Gokult’s good for the body. What I recommend can’t be wrong.”
And this belief.
Actually, Yukie herself used to be more impatient and would go around all over the place to increase the number of customers to promote her goods passionately. However, her body couldn’t take it now, and her methods have changed somewhat.
First, she would never force other people to buy.
The salary of a saleswoman was completely on commission, and her total salary would be decided through the number of Gokult delivered and the number of new customers. However, Yukie right now felt that money was just something she just needed enough of, and wasn’t really particular about her salary.
No, actually, that wasn’t just it. She would even request to shrink the area she was required to deliver to.
This was to spend even more time on each customer she had to handle and build more trust in them. Because of this, her sales numbers weren’t as impressive as when she was young (she was once chosen as the most outstanding Miss Gokult of the year thrice), but she still used her steady character and the sales technique she had trained over the years to get great ratings, and for 10 years, there weren’t any customers complaining, and neither were there any problems.
And also, the area she was in charge of gradually became smaller and smaller.
From this, one could tell how much her customers trusted her.
Thus, to Yukie.
“Sorry, Marui-san.”
The male Gokult supervisor, who was in charge of the distribution center, really trusted and doted on her.
“If it’s no problem, do you want to use this? Didn’t I request you to help out after work when some new workers came in to study? This is a reward for that. The main company gave me a few of these.”
“Oh my.”
Yukie supported her face.
“I’ll be really troubled~”
The supervisor handed a couple of tickets to a theme park to her.
“Goto-san always takes care of me.”
That was true.
As Yukie was enthusiastically managing and teaching other saleswoman, the supervisor would often give her some visible or invisible benefits.
