Wow !!!
The Authors of this book really REALLY must be reading my mind sometimes when I read this book I tell ya !!!! I was just JOKING the other day when I asked the question about who do I need to talk to to make sure that when I go to t he store to but some things that I want that they are always seeming to be sold out.
Well….The authors must have KNOWN that I would want to know that RIGHT ?
I mean I guess Penn Foster must have called them and said "Okay guys – Ms. Passion is going to ask this question of you guys so make sure you give her some good info on it because you just KNOW how SHE is when she wants to know something !!!"
Well little did "Me, Myself and I" know that often times for those of us who become frustrated by the fact that the products that we seek are sold out seemingly very where and every place we seem to look is actually BY THE DESIGN AND PLAN of the manufacturer !!!
Can you believe that !?!?!?!?
There are many product manufacturers that feel that when they put TOO much of a product out in the marketplace that if not sold it will sit on the shelves and force the retailer to the lower the price of the product which lowers the value of the product in the eyes of the consumer and lessens the demand. However by just putting out a little bit of the product at a time they can be assured that the product will sell quickly and also that the demand and brand value will remain high since so many people are in want of the product that the manufacturer is making.
Although this concept is frustrating at times for me from the consumer side I really can not argue with the logic behind the reasoning and rationale to do so ! Maybe that is a strategy that I can apply whenever I get a chance to invent some great product that Ms. Passion can sell to the world at large…..hmmmm…..
