Step 1 – Text & Goal Analysis

Core goal: persuade U.S./U.K. multi-unit operators and first-time franchisees that Xiaolongmen Hot Pot & Maocai is a safe, plug-and-play concept with protected turf and zero guesswork.

Reader pain-point: “Will someone open next door? Will the spice blend change next week? Do I have to invent the wheel myself?”

Step 2 – Key Info & Literal Terms

• 区域保护 = protected territory/radius protection

• 绝密配方标准化 = locked, proprietary spice base, portion-controlled packets

• 创新项目 = seasonal menu drops & limited-time add-ons

• 百店经验 = turnkey playbook tested in 1 000+ stores, KPI library included

Step 3 – Cultural Touch-Up

Replace the Chinese “大家庭” (big family) language with Western “franchise support network” and swap “毫无保留” (literally “with no secrets held back”) into “open-book access to P&L benchmarks and crisis checklists.”

Step 4 – Localized English Copy
