In Reply to: Numbers don't appear to add up at least to me, opinions welcome. Total sales of High-End audio products... posted by cfb on July 2, 2011 at 10:49:05:
Reading this past April Stereophile article by John Atkinson, The Upward Price Spiral, made me think of a couple of things. One, the fact that high end prices keep going, well, up, and two, how do the normal people, the new middle class and the others who are not of the upper end clientle, provide service and support to the elite clientle? Instead of trying to keep up with the "Jone's" or "Warren Buffet's", we should think of things that can be offered that will sell and is attractive to all across the price spectrum. Granted, money is a determinant in many buying decisions, except for the elite, but, when a product that is viable for all, then it will sell. The question is, when will people feel comfortable spending money again? I believe the key here is to be innovative and let genuine and creative thinking be the determinant. Hey, if someone can get rich selling coupons, then I believe we can think of something that would generate enough interest to sell. Then again, their is always the chance that the price will steadily increase until only the elite clientle can afford it, then the whole process will have to happen all over again. Just some ramblings, from a wannabe optimist.
