Attacks
When you launch an attack on storage buildings or closed branches,
you can either completely empty them of their contents or
demolish them. This does considerable damage to the competition.
Foul play
You can damage other branches' reputations with well-directed
acts. For example, you can appoint unsavory punks to annoy the
customers. If you want to protect yourself from operations like
this, you will have to appoint security guards. You can also
effectively sabotage rivals' branches by planting rats and
cockroaches, which put the customers off their food. Or you could
take more drastic action and poison the ingredients, or let
voracious woodworm loose on your rival's furniture. While your
opponent is busy dealing with the acts of sabotage, his customers
will take to their heels. You then acquire new customers.
Price/quality policy
If you want to force your way into a market quickly, it is often
worthwhile to start with a combination of low prices and
extremely low costs, if this is possible. OK, so the customers
will take note of the poor quality of the cheap branches, but
your excellent choice of location will already have driven your
rivals to ruin. The target groups' opinions both of your own
branches and rival branches can be obtained at any time. By using
skilful quality management, you will soon woo all the customers
away from an inferior branch.
Aggressive advertising
Advertising serves as a legal attack on your rivals. The
advertising message is set by the individual player. The effect
on the selected combination of target groups is then shown
immediately. Comparative advertising can be used to emphasize one's
strengths. A good marketing campaign will make the individual
branches better known. Very effective advertising even has a
direct effect on the opinions and attitudes of the cities'
inhabitants. The better known your branches are, the wider your
area of influence will be. This then tempts the customers away
from your rivals. You can even put posters up near rival branches,
to change the minds of hungry passers-by who were planning to
give their money to your opponents.
