停车场是商场的招牌(英文)
Parking's sales pitch for
retailers
作者:John Osborne
较高的租金和吃紧的预算,使商场的经营变得愈发艰难,作者介绍了三家主要的停车场管理公司如何应对生意不景气带来的挑战。
目前的这次经济衰退与以往不同之处在于,很多英国人的反应非常理智,不冲动。禁烟令颁布后酒吧的关闭,人们削减旅游开支选择国内游,很多商品网上购买更便宜,这些都对传统零售业造成了冲击。
同时,可持续交通政策的日益普及,加上环境压力,宁用一辆车不用两辆车,零售商店和停车场经营者只得想尽各种办法吸引顾客。
停车场是刺激商业和零售业活力的重要因素。由于很多地方政府拥有城市和中心区的停车场,他们对能改变购物者的因素应当有浓厚的兴趣,例如费率以及停车者在多层停车场停车时感受到的舒适度。
正文:
Perhaps what makes the current recession different from previous
ones is that so many people in the United Kingdom are responding
logically rather than emotionally. With pubs closing due to the
smoking ban, people deciding to cut travel costs and take holidays
in the UK and many goods cheaper on the internet why bother with
traditional shopping?
