The One Single Business Lesson I Wish I Learned Sooner

  • Giving discounts to every customer creates a bad reputation.

 

  • You create your brand around being a "discount giver"...

 

  • This gives your customers power over your price, which they shouldn't have.

Only you get to decide your price.

 

  • When your price is always discounted it creates a habit with your customers to only buy from you when it's cheap...

    Thus, never buying from you at full price.

 

  • When you do offer your product at full price, they go to another cheaper option. You end up stuck in an endless price war in a bid to win customers on price...

Rather than winning customers over on loyalty to you, your brand, and the experience you work hard to deliver.

 

  • Discounts are a double-edged sword.

Reserve them for the right occasions:

 New product launch (introductory price point)

 To reward existing loyal customers

 Bulk orders

 Long term retainers (ie signing a 6 month service)

2. Luxury brands focus on extreme levels of differentiation.

Luxury brands invest a lot of money to make their brand different. The slightest similarity to a cheaper option will cause customers to choose the cheapest option. Cheap is not an option for luxury brands, it would harm your positioning and cause customers to go elsewhere. 

This why luxury brands focus on extreme differentiation through the customers they serve, their brand identity, and the overall experience delivered. 

 

3. Luxury brands are passionate about their...
