I'm finding retailing really difficult of late....
Even my regular client's are buying on line as they can buy it cheaper than I am selling it for!
I've done the 'cautionary tale' thing....informing them that it might not be the real deal....
But still the lure of CHEAP seems impossible for them to resist.
And of course, not all the 'Bargains' are knock offs.......we've all had a little lookie, and can see all the big brands available online, for less than the rrp.
Being a small business, I'm unable to enjoy the discount's larger organisations demand, making it seem like I'm over priced!
My question is, how many of you are sticking to the rrp.....or are any of you having to lower/price match in order to make that sale.
