How does your C-store stand out?
Frequent customer visits and purchases are imperative to the success of your convenience store.
As of December 2021, there are 148,026 convenience stores operating in the United States, a 1.5% decrease in the number of stores in operation (150,274) at the close of 2020, according to the 2022 NACS/Nielsen Convenience Industry Store Count.
More consumers say the quality of an in-store offer is driving their preferences for certain stores or brands. Nearly two in three drivers (62%) say they prefer a certain c-store or chain, which is double the amount from eighty years ago.
What products do you carry on a regular basis that other C-stores may not? Are you reaching out to customers to promote your discounts and new products or just relying on in-store and gas pump signage? Contact your customers to incentivize them to stop in.
Consider implementing an SMS marketing and a SMS loyalty program to reward your regular customers with special deals. Give your loyal customers an opportunity to spread the word about you through a text referral campaign.
