Of course such basic bizz school buzz knowledge (propounded in the post above)
piped into the heads of MBA students, is obvious clapp trash. And runs the exact opposite of quality
product production for the market.
The most clear and quite large, world wide market for such is the
Mercedes-Benz automobile from Stuttgart, Germany (I toured the
factory there in 1967, buying a product while there at good, but
very high price for my use to move about Europe; later had it
shipped home to US after returning it to the factory. For anotrher high,
but fair price, it was shipped to the local MB dealer in the US, who certified
it to me as factory perfect on my pick up back home.)
Mercedes has never lowered a price, and has kept the identical models in production,
and world wide distribution for a decade or longer! Quality, reliable, personal
and courteous support for that original MB product with your continued support
to your local dealer for any service need, ensures years of excellent performance
and reliable operation from a great and quality piece of engineering. That
particular MB, we drove all over the Western US mountain and desert states,
touring our kids about every National Park and forest, with reliability and
NEVER a hint of any mechanical problem. After those 10 yraes, we had run
up just more than 200,000 miles on the odometer. Our next oldest son
received that MB at that time, and drove it all about So. Cal., including
every year up into the ski world for sport as he went through all the years
to his degree from USC (which always had a costly alumni support for a world class,
championship football team, well supported to quality, by quality education
received from the University by thew alumni). By the way, USC seems to have
never lowered their year-following-year cost of reliable quality education.
Obviously, true quality/service never is discounted nor cheapened!
