11. Case study--Raising Prices:
One sales manager tells the story of how the previous generation of senior
management raised prices. ?Our President would take our product catalog and a red
pen to the coffee room,? he recalls. He?d pour himself a cup and go through the list,
arbitrarily crossing out current prices and writing in new higher ones.? That company
we learned was not in a price sensitive business; it managed to get away with this
arbitrary approach for many years.
Because demand in most industries is price sensitive, the job of raising prices?even
when doing so is justified by higher cost, inflation, and improvements in quality?
should be approached with considerable caution. Many businesses simply mask the
fact that they are raising prices. Consider the examples:
? In the early 2000s, airlines discontinued customer perks such as free meals
while keeping ticket prices steady.
? Multiplex theatres kept ticket prices the same but raised prices on popcorn, soft
drinks and other things within the theatre.
Alternatively companies wait for the industry leader to raise its prices, making it safe
for them to boost theirs.
a) What, in your opinion, can be the problems with this kind of approaches?
b) What other alternatives can be thought of when confronted with situation requiring
price raise? [10]
