Family Mart convenience store

[uls]

kami naman mga sosy uls hinde naman kelangan masyado madami pasok ng pera, nakakataba lang yun. nag importante eh you look good and yoh look upscale, kasi how would you differentiate yourself diba.

take a look at those high society people with fancy dresses, do you think endless supply of money is their concern, not really pero pag tinignan mo sila parsng may endless supply of money pero in real life, magaling lang magdala.

that's how you sperate the sheep from the lion, the sheep tend to work more to earn more becuase the luon portrays na hard worker sya with all the blings, pero in reality magaling lang sya magdala.

matagal ko inaaply ang philosophy na to sa facebook, i see friends traveling every weekend but struggle in getting the right angle or right pose sa photo coz. wala din ginawa kungdi mag food trip at lumamon while out of town.

minsan i just post a simple instagram photo of me, sipping coffee in my fit and brand new bought on sale size small shirt, na. bakit lagi on sale, kasi kokonti lang kami small sa population,

remember 20 - 80 rule. the rich/lion does only the 20% while the sheep /jologs, walang katapusan 80% para lang makahabol or keep up buhay, which in turn theyre life is so cluttered in every whiich way, kayod, gastos, taba, and then still negative near depression. i suggest they stidy the 7 deadly sins as a start.

i won't even waste time and effort to comment on what you just said

eto lang

example ng branding ng jollibee vs mcdo

nagawa ng jollibee pang masa ang brand niya kesa sa Kanong clown na yan

kaya talo mcdo kay jollibee dito sa pinas

Nagtataka nga ko bakit ang lakas ng kita ng convenience store e ang laki naman ng patong nila sa price. Ang lamang lang nila sa supermarket e 24/7 sila at convenient location.

Siopao asado lang binibili ko sa 711, I don't buy anything else but that. Lawson for chicken pag sawa na ko sa ibang fast food Yung chips, drinks, bread etc mas mura sa supermarket. Yung officemate ko na mataba, parati namin topic ng friends ko, kasi suki ng 711, mini stop, family mart at lawson. Everyday diyan siya bumibili ng food. Memorize niya price ng mga chicken sa lahat ng convenience stores na yan. Ang hilig sa flavored drinks (c2, soda, etc) e mas makatipid siya kung bumili na lang siya ng isang kahon, at iwan na lang niya sa office yung supply niya.

i give you.another example uls coz a week ago I bought a smart tv.

so i overhead other buyers telling their companions, kelangan big screen kelangan 4k walang kwenta kung walang surround sound home theater ekek

so hayun when we were all lined up sa testing sa store, one bought a 50in regular tv mas pinili nya yun malaki na screen pero hindi sya nag smart, the other one bought the bigger 65in with matching home theater worth 40k more. wow!

so being a snobbish person that I am di ko na kinausap yun bumile ng 50 na regular tv. at ang kunausap ko yun bumile ng 65 in, i told him, you know you just have to have a fiber connection that coz youre gonna stream 4k. and he replied, yes nakakabit na. so i said good choice! and he smiled back. the other guy i didnt talk to even though its bigger 50 inch , wala naxsense pa makipagusap sa plain tvs.

so what did i buy a 43" smart tv with built in ISBT receiver na naka-sale as compared to the bigger screens.

the guy who bought the non smart tv, mag aspire pa sya in future to get another one coz dapat smart na binible ngaun,

while the guy who bought the totl package, i think papaga custom pa sya ng custom cabinet for the speakers and other future accessories, maybe a
lazyboy , then a 5000 per month fiber access, and then kung mag-download he will download 4k videos. na kelangan nya ng not 1 not 2 but maybe at least 5 terabytes of hd space to acoomodate his collection.

eh ako i just bought a 43 smart to be mounted on a wall, in a open space room, which I will be spending every night watching youtube videos of arnis and sword training, my wife can use it for aerobics,


yun lang naman talaga purpose ng tv eh , to get info to study actors in emotional intelligence, sp tha you can apply in real life, and make less money but maximize more.

there's a reason why convenience store ang tawag

nag oobserve din ako tulad ni OB

past midnight makikita mo mga pumupunta sa 711

mga bibili ng beer/alak and ice

naka motor lang

walk in walk out in a couple minutes

that's something supermarkets can't offer

SM/BDO vs. Ayala/BPI

ung isang pang masa

ung isa arte sosy image/branding

sino sa kanila ang mas madaming bilyon

[uls]

smart vs globe

puregold vs landmark

ang pera nasa masa

coz of sheer size of population

[tidus1203]

ibig ko sabihin na fake eh masyado hinaype na japan daw.... consumer expects na pati products eh genuine.... naghanap ako ng natto eh waley pala

so kakadismaya na puro jack and jill at zesto...... eh parang 7-11 din....

gayahin nila mga indepedent korean at japanese store owners..... tunay talaga.....

Well kung ginaya nila sobra FM sa Japan lalo sila lulubog hahahaha.... Di panlasang Pinoy mga natto or mga Japanese snacks. Factor in pa prices lalong lulubog sobrang price conscious dito e... Maskin quality is inferior...

And since Tsikot to.

Toyota and Mitsubishi VS Honda/Subaru/Mazda/Ford/

exactly!

it will just be a novelty

people will be curious what a real japanese convenience store looks like, look at the products...

punta lang once or twice di na uulit

I don't think Ayala/BPI has a sosy image/branding. When it comes to banks, upscale would be offshore banks. I am loyal to Ayala mall and BPI because these brands give better products, services, respect their customers and have business ethics.

SM/BDO absence of business ethics is absolutely appalling. Para silang Walmart of the Philippines. My former professor whose family owns a popular restaurant in PH is disgusted by SM. I don't care if it's more convenient to go to SM, there's at least one in every city in MM! Naiinis ako because SM kills Mom and Pop stores! We don't need an SM every x kilometers for example, and no offense to BF residents pero nasira vista ng BF nung tinayuan ng big box SM ang entrance ng village nila. The old McDonalds looked so much better. And why the need for an SM in BF e may SM na sa Sucat.

Pati yuang BDO- We find ways to screw you.

I've said it at the board numerous times but I hate SM (and all it's businesses) with a passion.

711 samin during office hours mahaba ang pila. Past midnight na hindi na masyado mabenta unlike during office hours.

[uls]

kaya kung sosy person ka and syempre mataas standard mo and taste

tapos mag open ka ng business selling only stuff you would buy, stuff only that meets your standard and taste

sobrang limitado ang market mo

ilan lang ba tao tulad mo?

sa loob ng isang araw ilan lang tao papasok sa tindahan mo

lalampasan ka lang ng ordinary people

impression nila sa tindahan mo pang mayaman lang

well, kung ganyan nga talaga gusto mong business you gotta figure out how to pay the bills

kaya madami mga sosy arte tindahan nagbubukas tapos nagsasara after a few months

arte arte sosy sosy kulang naman ang benta pambayad ng upa

you prefer ayala companies coz they're spanish konyo

I love Landmark and the owner is Chinese...

That's an exception. It just so happened that most companies which I find distasteful are Chinese owned (such an cebu pacific - blows my mind why people continue to fly with this airline that treats its customers like crap)

Sorry for all the OT. Basta usapang SM nahi high blood talaga ako, I HATE HATE HATE it so much.

Well same arguments that we have. Cebu Pacific is cheaper dibali na I am treated like crap basta maka Japan ako for 10K kaysa PAL (which is also Chinese owned hahahaha) na 20K. Sayang din 10K laki na yun budget na yun for lodging ng Airbnb for a week's stay in Japan hahahahaha...

PAL maganda dahil may direct flight nila sa US. But if you're going to another country, you're better off with another airline.

The way my ex described cebupac - it was like riding a bus in EDSA, may nagtitinda pa ng mani. And too many horror stories about cebu pacific...

[niky]

sa business, kung puro sosyal sosyal lang alam mo matatalo ka ng mga business na walang paki sa sosyal sosyal

jologs na kung jologs

tuloy tuloy naman ang pasok ng pera

Sakto.

Sadly.

I can tell when a business is going to go under.

I like it. (di ako sosi, allergic lang sa crowd)

Genuine Japanese "franchise" ang Family Mart. Sa Japan, yung dalawang pinakaraming branches yung Lawson at Family Mart. Pati sa small towns, its either of the two.

Shame. Their Japanese branches are good, but locally, Family Mart is viewed as "too sosi"... Ministop and Alfamart are more appealing to the "masa" crowd.

I think 7-11's strength in brand recognition is unassailable... despite MiniStop and Alfa undercutting it in price, it still does fantastic business. Right product mix. Right prices.

-
Grabe difference ng mga convenience stores sa Japan. Sarap bumili ng Oden sa 7-11 o Family Mart after midnight.

ibig ko sabihin na fake eh masyado hinaype na japan daw.... consumer expects na pati products eh genuine.... naghanap ako ng natto eh waley pala

so kakadismaya na puro jack and jill at zesto...... eh parang 7-11 din....

Assi mart.

Best place to buy instant noodles. Cheaper than most supermarkets.

Sakto.

imagine going into a store

pag pasok mo palang ang sarap ng feeling

lamig ng aircon

the store's scent is very relaxing

the store feels so classy

the goods are classy, the floor's classy, the lighting's classy, every freaking detail is classy

even the salesperson looks and sounds classy

and you're the only one in the store

kung ako iisipin ko agad "how the hell does this place stay in business?"

i mean like dude, we're in a third world country

the poor folk ain't never gonna come in here, and the really rich folk do their shopping abroad

who the hell's gonna buy anything here?

after a few months makita mo sarado na
