Dear Strategy 121: Ink Jet Cartridges and Other Captive Strategies
from Dear Strategy · host Bob Caporale | Strategy Generation Company
On this episode of Dear Strategy, we analyze the practice of charging as much for the ink jet cartridges as for the printer itself. It's called "captive pricing" and, just as the name implies it's a strategy that's not exactly designed with the customer in mind! We'll talk about why this model exists and whether it's actually a good strategy for companies to take over the long-term. Visit our Blog to read the full post that goes along with this episode.
