Business Name: The Burning Herb Concept: The city of Kenash features a unique lifestyle that is driven by success and pleasure. The store will provide a place for people to purchase various flavors of tobacco mixed with herbs like damiana or soaked and dried in various elixirs such as alcohol or fruit juice. Various media for enjoying the products will be available for sale as well. The customers will also have access to a sitting area where they can take the stress of their day, blow it into smoke rings and watch it float away. This patio may also be a good place to conduct a business meeting. Attached to the store will be an herbalist’s lab where various plants used for seasoning blends will be grown. The previously mentioned elixirs and alcohols will be mixed and blended in this area as well. Any long term processes such as fermentation or time-lapsed flavoring will be placed into a small storage unit. Mission Statement: To provide customers with a place to relax, congregate with friends or conduct business while enjoying a wonderful variety of gourmet tobacco and herb blends.

[*] I spoke with Cocoon about tobacco as a cash crop. He said that while some dynasties are known for it that every dynasty uses it as a cash crop. Bearing that in mind, I felt it reasonable that an arrangement could be made with the Draer for Ferdinand to only purchase tobacco from them. The benefits would be a wholesale cost of goods for the business which could be a savings of 5-10% and in exchange, every marked member of the Draer dynasty would receive an equal discount on goods and services. The difference is minimal; 5% of the current order is about 88 sm. The driving force behind the idea is to funnel business into the store.
I am interested to hear your thoughts on this matter. Seasonal Expenses :
2608 / 8 = 326 (loan repayment) + 135 (common living expenses) = 461 gm/season
Thank you for your time. |
