How can pharmacies reduce costs?

In the current economic downturn, all drugstore operators need to think deeply about how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. Today, the investment manager of Beijing Baicaotang pharmaceutical chain introduced the methods to reduce the cost of pharmacies.

1, and the main methods to reduce the venue rental cost are as follows:

Change the location of business circle: If your positioning and product structure are not enough to support your business in downtown, change the business circle decisively and operate in a new business circle with low rent.

Seize the new community business circle: often a new community may not have a pharmacy in a short time, or the scale is too small to become a climate, so it can take the lead in entering, sign a long-term contract of 10, and get lower rent. Then expand the business circle through membership or going out of the store to achieve sales performance.

Property investment: By buying out stores, we can obtain long-term management rights. The stores of a large chain pharmacy in the United States are basically their own properties. Moreover, the property can appreciate. If your own funds are not enough, mobilizing employees to participate in the purchase of the property is one of the best ways.

Find a property company to cooperate: Just as some cheap drug supermarkets were originally combined with some properties, the property investment in idle venues can often greatly reduce the cost of venue leasing, and both parties can distribute profits.

Improve efficiency: At present, most pharmacies in China are relatively empty, and the shelves, containers and space have not been effectively utilized. Chain pharmacies in Japan and Hong Kong are very efficient, at least in a small effective area, and the goods are piled up like mountains. At present, the low-priced drug supermarket has become a standard drug supermarket of about 200 square meters, which also illustrates this problem. The improvement of floor efficiency is equivalent to the reduction of store rent.

2. How to reduce the cost of personnel management

The proportion of personnel expenses is variable and can be reduced with the increase of turnover. The implementation of the new labor law and soaring prices have made the wage pressure increasingly obvious.

Raise wages substantially and reduce the number of people. In terms of employing people, the most expensive person must be the most cost-effective, because its value is the highest, and what chain pharmacies lack most is talent. Therefore, the salaries of key employees can be greatly increased, while reducing unnecessary personnel.
