No bottom line! The boss's employees actually sold company products during work hours

No bottom line! The boss's employees actually sold company products during work hours

Selling by following others is undoubtedly a behavior that sellers hate, but it has become a major feature on the Amazon platform. Under the premise that Amazon officially allows it, selling by following others is not uncommon. Being followed by strangers is already hard to guard against and exhausting, but what is it like to be followed by employees of your own company?

 

Recently, the editor received a tip from an insider of a company in Yiwu that the company's employees were blatantly selling the company's products in the office ...

 

It is reported that this Yiwu company is engaged in foreign trade and cross-border e-commerce business . In addition to taking some large foreign trade orders on a regular basis, it also has its own store on the Amazon platform.

 

Not long ago, the company had an employee follow-selling company products. The incident was as follows: The protagonists of the follow-selling were two employees personally led by the boss. After working in the company for a period of time, the two gradually became familiar with the company's operations and had "bad intentions". They privately applied for Amazon accounts, followed the company's products, and illegally occupied the company's warehouse products and shipped them directly from the company's warehouse. At the same time, they also contacted the company's suppliers behind the company's back and took goods from the suppliers.

 

All the above-mentioned account application and login, follow-up sales records, sales data and other operations were performed on the company's computers . I don't know whether to say that these two are extremely bold or extremely stupid?

 

At present, the matter has been known by the boss of the company, but the insider did not reveal too much about the details of the incident handling. He only mentioned two points. First, the boss did not sue the two employees, but ordered them to stop copy-selling and return the company's property that had been misappropriated. Second , after investigation, it was found that there was someone behind the two employees who deliberately supported them, but the whistleblower did not mention who this person was.

 

Looking at this incident, the employee was bold and the boss was kind. Is everyone so tolerant of copycat sales now?

 

In addition, the editor also saw relevant people revealing in the seller forum that his company also had follow-selling, and employees secretly followed-selling in the middle of the night and privately found suppliers to make products. At present, the company has found this person, and the subsequent handling results are still unknown.

 

The cases of follow-selling are endless. It is difficult to prevent the hidden attacks from the outside world, but what is more terrible is the stab in the back by the acquaintances. Why do employees of companies often ignore the company's regulations and privately follow-sell the company's products? This is worth pondering.

 

If an employee opens an account without permission and sells the same products as the company, becoming a competitor of the company, the consequences are not good. In any case, copying is always bad, not to mention stealing products from the warehouse and shipping them out, which is a step towards breaking the law. If you don't meet a kind boss, you may end up in jail and have to compensate the company for various losses.
