Kebab store if they were epic like in their strategy would not be throwing a fit, but making exclusivity deals with suppliers so that their competitors in the area lose access to them. So trying to increase consumers having to go to their kebab store to get specific meals due to inability of other stores to offer it or not retain the same quality anymore. Also look into regulations to try and prevent potential competitors from opening up next to them or at least delay when they can open.
And don't forget that they refuse to take credit card (ie not having a shopping cart in this example) for 2 fucking years
They give out free samples though once a week to try to get people to buy their food. People prefer the other kebab store down the block though when it comes to spending on meals.
I adore this back-and-forth, but is the metaphor here doing anything any more?
Does there ever need to be a reason to pivot a discussion into one that includes delicious kebabs?
