Add Value To Compete — Oct 7, 2020
Too many companies believe they can only compete on the basis of price. This leads to price cutting and unacceptable gross profit levels. Unless your company is selling a true commodity product or service, it is not always necessary to cut price to compete. If your company understands how to deliver outstanding customer service, it is already far ahead of most businesses. And over time many customers will become somewhat loyal based on that fact. This loyalty can allow some separation between your prices and that of your competition. And there are other ways of adding value to a sale. Use your ability to differentiate your product/service as a means of competing. This will mean that sales people will have to work harder and smarter. They won't be able to simply cut prices to get the deal. They will have to sell value and benefits. Making unnecessary price concessions is one of the leading ways that businesses drop gross profit to levels that simply aren't acceptable.

Customer Feedback
"We discovered mybusinessbooks.com about 6 months ago and have since purchased several e-books on the site. The authors are obviously people who know how to run a business and how to achieve high levels of success. We recently used the Strategic Planning Workbook to help us through our strategic planning process and it was instrumental in providing the guidance necessary to develop a sound plan. I even emailed them when we were in the process of developing our plan about a question we had and they responded immediately with some great insight. I highly recommend the books on this site!"
