subject: Managing a Convenient Store is Like Sailing a Treasure Galleon [print this page] When you see an economic storm on the horizon, not only should you cut costs, but you should also switch as many of your fixed costs to variable costs. Instead of purchasing new equipment with monthly payments, rent the equipment and return it when you no longer need it. Instead of paying new employees a contractual salary, instead of signing a five year service agreement with a uniform and laundry provider, sign a six month or a month-to-month contract. You should also cut discretionary costs. By managing your fixed costs and variable costs, you have the ability to control your costs and stay afloat.
