He s

Have you ever wondered just how all the retailers who have a shop at your local shopping centre, sorted out who’d go where? If you imagined that they didn’t really care – think again.The adage in real estate; location, location is just as relevant in the shopping centre placement game.Firstly some useful terms to clarify the language used:While judging a freshman business plan competition at a local university, I noticed a pattern. Each of the student groups said they were developing a premium brand, but they would use a low-cost penetration pricing strategy. Even though they were often selling at a loss, they explained that by entering the market as the low price leader they would gain market share, people would fall in love with their product and they could raise their prices once they had built customer loyalty.
I could not think of any company that after entering the market with low-cost pricing, went on to be a dominate premium brand and could command an above market price. So, as a judge, I reminded them that “using this logic, they will develop a commodity level brand with very little loyalty and being a commodity is a hole few companies could ever hope to dig themselves out from.”

Getting your best deal when you sell your business is a major challenge. Unfortunately, it is a process all too many business owners take too lightly. They end up settling for less when they fail to employ strategic business thinking to all elements of the selling process and transaction. To help you get your best deal; I have developed a ten-step proces

Our point of view, perception, and learning are all objects of our knowledge, and these are things that prevent us from going ahead. "I already know everything there is to know about that. I don't need to learn any more." We have arrived only at the fourth rung of the ladder, yet we think it is the top rung. Whatever the value of what our intellect and our

Infosnacking was declared word of the year for 2005 by Webster’s New World College Dictionary. If you are reading this article while at work, and it is not research for your company or related to your job in some way, then you are officially infosnacking. Dang, we use to just call it ‘screwing the dog’, but guess that is no longer Poli
I know what you’re saying, “they are freshman and have a lot to learn about business.” Hopefully these students have learned from this and will think differently when it really counts. However, this flawed thinking is not reserved for the business school novice because most companies can't get it through their thick skulls that a low-cost pricing strategy doesn't work and does not build customer loyalty.
Big box store “low-price guarantees” are creating a marketplace full of people who are fixated on price. Customers are no longer loyal to most brands and will switch from their “favorite” brand for a few pennies. These customers are loyal to low-price, not a particular brand. Because loyalty cannot be based on price, I would much rather see a company say that they were 10% higher than their most expensive competitor and then
