How to Find Key Decision Makers of Phone Charger Rental Venues and Negotiate Cooperation?[4 Methods]

We have already known how to strategically lay out power bank rental venues and how to source shared portable charger venues. Next, to establish cooperation with target venues, it is crucial to identify the key decision makers of these shops. After all, if you approach the wrong person who lacks the authority to make decisions, all your efforts could be in vain.

If the contact of your target phone charger rental venue is referred by your friend, acquaintance, or cooperation partner, that contact introduced to you is likely to be the key decision maker of your target venue.

In that case, what to do next will be clear: focus all your efforts on persuading that contact (key decision maker) to cooperate with you and become one of your phone charge venues. But what if you don’t have such strong connections? How can you find the key decision makers of your target phone charger rental venues? Let’s explore some methods today~

Firstly, check out the table of contents below to get an overview of this article. If you’re interested in a specific section, feel free to jump directly to it~

In general, there are 4 main methods to find key decision makers, or you can directly consult HeyCharge for assistance~

Method 1: Finding Key Decision Makers of Target phone Charger Venues Online

In today’s rapidly developing internet era, numerous online platforms are emerging, such as map navigation apps, local life platforms, food delivery apps, group buying platforms, etc. We can fully utilize these online tools and platforms to find the contact information of target shops.

For small shops, you can usually find the decision maker’s contact information directly on these online platforms. For large chain stores or corporate stores, you can visit their official websites to find the contact details of the relevant department or person in charge.

Once you have the contact information of the key decision maker, you can call them, send messages, or add them on social media. Here are some steps for an initial discussion:

• Step 1: Get to the Point. Address them and introduce yourself.
• Step 2: Present Your Power Bank Rental Project: Introduce your power bank sharing project, and Explain what kind of cooperation you are seeking with the shop.
• Step 3: Highlight Benefits. Show high profit share we can offer them to attract their interests.
• Step 4: Invitation. Take the initiative to propose a meeting time and place for further discussion.

However, not all shops have their contact information available online, and not all decision makers you found will be willing to engage with you.

Additionally, it’s easy for the other party to refuse if you only make contact online—they might even hang up before you explain your purpose or simply ignore your messages. In such cases, taking proactive steps is necessary, and visiting in person is a good idea!

Method 2: Visiting Target Phone Charger Venues in Person

You can visit stores with good traffic one by one by canvassing the buildings and streets on foot. However, since you don’t know each other, there’s no trust built up, and a direct sales pitch might lead to rejection, let alone meeting the shop manager or owner. What should we do at this time? In fact, it takes some skills to avoid this situation:

1. Dress well and exude confidence.

A clean, professional appearance makes a good first impression, essential for initiating cooperation. You can start a casual conversation with staff first, then tell him/her that you have a business to cooperate with this store, and hope to meet with the manager/boss. He/she would likely to be willing to help find the store manager when he feel you are so polite and cute.

2. Observe and strategize.

Assess the shop’s scale, staff, customer traffic, and whether they already have had other power bank stations deployed. Different situations require different strategies.

If there are already other shared power bank stations, you need to ask the store manager about the flow of the other party’s stations, and offer better conditions than others to win cooperation. If there are no other power bank stations in the store, then you can strive for exclusive cooperation.

3. Pay attention to speaking skills.

In terms of language expression, you need to focus on the shop’s benefits so that the shop managers/owners feel that they can get significant gains with minimal effort. If necessary, you can also offer additional perks, like advertising on your rental power bank stations with screen at other phone charger rental venues for them for free, to make your proposal more appealing.

In this way, shop owners may feel that you are such a sincere person and they can get valuable extra benefits, so it is wonderful to cooperate with you! Then you have the chance to win the cooperation~

4. Maintain good relationships and strive for cooperation opportunities.

Regardless of whether this visit leads to cooperation or not, keep in touch and never give up easily. You can visit them when you are nearby. When you want to treat your friends to consumption, you can choose this shop first and maintain a good relationship with the boss. As time goes by, frequent visits and choosing their shop for personal purchases will build rapport. The shop owner will see your sincerity, and your cooperation will be possible.

Moreover, whether you secure a deal eventually or not, once you become familiar with the shop owners, you can ask them for referrals. This way, you can find new potential phone charger rental venues for collaboration. The referred shop owners will also trust you at some degree, based on the their trust to their friends, making negotiations smoother and more possible to succeed.

It’s important to note that visiting shops in person is a challenging task. You need to be confident, meticulous, adaptable, and persistent. Each visit, whether successful or not, should be followed by a thorough review to refine your approach and improve your success rate.

In addition to finding contacts online and visiting high traffic shops in person, you can also collaborate with other sharing industries and attend business promotion events to discover new opportunities.

Method 3: Collaborating with Other Sharing Industries

You may often see vending machines and claw machines at malls and amusement parks. The owners of these vending machines and claw machines need to rent space first if they want to deploy their machines. While renting space at these high traffic areas can be expensive. Therefore, we can collaborate with them to share the space and split the rental costs, making it more affordable for everyone.

Claw machines, vending machines, and shared phone chargers complement each other. Customers using one service might be inclined to use another, creating a mutually beneficial situation. Contact details for these machines are usually displayed on them, making it easy to reach the decision makers.

Furthermore, claw machines, vending machines, and phone charger rentals, though part of the sharing economy, are not competitors. Instead, they can drive business to each other. For example, a customer playing on a claw machine might notice their phone is running low on battery and conveniently rent a charger nearby. Similarly, someone renting a charger might be tempted to try their luck at the claw machine or buy a snack from the vending machine. By collaborating, these businesses can achieve mutual benefits and a win-win situation.

Then, how to find the key decision makers for claw machines and vending machines? It’s quite simple. These machines usually have contact information printed on them, making it easy to get in touch directly.

Method 4: Attending Business Promotion Events

Another way to find key decision makers of target venues is by attending various business promotion events. Typically, many entrepreneurs will gather at these events, and their business scale won’t be small, offering high value cooperation opportunities.

If you have chances to participate in these events, and are flexible in your approach, you are likely to gain significant opportunities.
