Prioritize Store Leveling for Customer Growth

• To boost your daily customer count, focus on leveling up your store. While other upgrades provide minor benefits, your store’s level is the primary driver of long-term traffic increases.
• Here’s how to accelerate leveling and optimize your store’s layout for success:

Store Points = Customer Capacity

• Earn store points through daily sales – these directly determine your level progression.
• Higher levels automatically increase your daily customer limit. More sales = faster leveling = more visitors.

Boost Sales Velocity for Faster XP

• Constantly restock high-demand items and expand product variety through unlocked licenses.
• Prioritize shelf space for bestsellers to maximize turnover rates and XP gains.

Optimize Store Operations

Strategic Product Expansion

• New licenses increase sales potential but require proper storage – always verify requirements before purchasing.
• Diverse inventory encourages customers to buy more items per visit.

Self-Checkout Advantages

• Faster throughput: Reduces checkout lines, potentially increasing total daily sales.
• Space-efficient: Requires fewer tiles than staffed registers, freeing up room for shelves.

Smart Expansion Tactics

• Only expand when your current space is fully optimized – empty shelves generate zero XP.
• More space should directly translate to increased product variety or quantity on shelves.

Maintain Core Foundations

Pricing Strategy

• Balance profitability with affordability – stagnant inventory slows leveling progress.
• Adjust prices downward for slow-moving items to maintain sales momentum.

Inventory Management Protocol

• Restock empty items with 4 boxes, low stock with 2 boxes – focus on top sellers first.
• Prioritize daily restocking of high-demand products over niche items.

Lighting Matters

• Keep lights active during all operating hours – dimmed lighting correlates with reduced foot traffic.
• Increased electricity costs outweigh potential losses from reduced customer visits.
