How to operate: First of all, you should stabilize your existing customers. That's all that matters. Of course, this aspect starts from the soft environment of Internet cafes. In terms of computer hardware, I think you may not be able to upgrade (unless you really can't). Retaining old customers can improve services and provide more convenient and humanized services. For example, now that the weather is getting cold, you can consider putting a machine that can provide hot drinks; It is very important to spend some money on chairs to improve your comfort in surfing the Internet in Internet cafes. Replace it with a comfortable soft chair with strong elasticity, which can always lean on the head, and configure some additional equipment, so that customers can lean on the chair to play with the keyboard and mouse when ordering chairs. Of course, the service personnel in Internet cafes are the most important, and a large part of the reason for attracting repeat customers is the attitude of the staff in Internet cafes. Do some publicity at the right time and often engage in some activities. With popularity and atmosphere, business will naturally flourish.
