The Conveni 3

Know this, all ye patrons of corn chips, instant sandwiches, cigarettes and soda pop: Purveying the likes of you ain't easy. Late store hours, keeping salty snacks in stock and watching out for shoplifters all conspire to rob convenience store proprietors of profit, hair and patience. Those who are successful in running a 7-11 or a mom 'n pop deli enjoy elusive profits but the struggle goes on day after day.
Returning to the market for a third stride, the Conveni plies convenience store economics where players attempt to balance the books by keeping customers happy with deft pricing strategy, proper product mix and sensible store decor. An advertising budget may help attract night crawlers to your domain but getting the word out is costly and takes away from the bottom line. To add to the strife, rival convenience chains and shops jockey for potential customers with marketing tactics of their own. Seasonal changes also require product overhauls as winter turns into summer and back again. New shopkeepers unschooled in the art of sales may engage the training mode which teaches convenience store 101. A tie-in with the Lawson chain store franchise in Japan also allows the management of an actual Lawson store with trademark store designs, employee uniforms and the big Lawson sign out in front.
