The Best of Times...The Worst of Times? Part 2
Do you get the impression that everyone is missing the point to our current economic climate (I prefer “climate” to “crisis”). All common sense solutions first identify the “root cause” of the problem. There are plenty of examples in our daily lives. Want to avoid a hangover?...DON’T drink, care to avoid lung cancer?...DON’T smoke, indigestion?...avoid spicy foods. When you go to the doctor seeking help with your cholesterol or blood pressure the doctor will prescribe medicine and a regimen of diet and exercise that will work towards solving the root cause of the problem. Why haven’t we taken the same approach to solving the root cause of our current “climate”?

Double Marginalization and the Point of Ideal Price Viability
Referencing my last post (Double Marginalization and the Decentralized Supply Chain, August 9, 2007) double marginalization “DM” is defined as the “exercise of market power at successive vertical layers in a supply chain.” The problem that arises as a result of DM is tied to an impetus to mark up the product’s price above marginal cost. The sequence of mark-ups “leads to a higher retail price and lower combined profit for the supply chain.” In short, DM drives the paradoxical outcome of higher buy prices with lower sell profits.

What is the Value in your Supply Chain A PI Q and A
Member Question: What is the difference between Supply Chain and Value Chain? My Response: To begin, the reference to supply or “value” chain is a misnomer in that it implies a sequential architecture. This is a term that is on its way out as an organization’s supply “practice” is actually centered on the synchronization of diverse stakeholders sometimes spanning multiple supply networks. This is an important distinction given the impact that real-world synchronization has on theories such as value chains. That said the concept of the value chain was first introduced by Michael Porter in 1985 in his book, Competitive Advantage: Creating and Sustaining Superior Performance.

Trained Seals
No matter what price you quote, many customers will automatically say its too high, maybe way too high. Like the seal, that response is so deeply drilled into them that just about every rep they meet gets the same reaction. How do you get beyond the knee-jerk reaction and into a reasonable conversation about their situation, needs, budget, and time frames?

Profitable Online business Ideas and the Recession; Increase Your Income
In these economic hard times everyone senses a high degree of fear and unrest. The typical reaction most people have is to “tighten your belt!” Many people will seek a part time job.
