“Dollar menus” will get you through tough times…


The economic crisis has been embodied in the daily strategic decision making of every corporation and retailer out there. We have to find ways to survive through these hard times.  Sometimes the solution might be easier and more obvious than we think it would be. 
Identify basic needs and wants of your consumers and try to fulfill them at the lowest cost possible.  McDonalds’s identification of people’s basic need for food at a low comparatively cost has lead to the induction and promotion of its “Dollar menus”; this has enabled McDonalds to maintain its current clientele, attract even more and sustain its vitality during the economic crisis. Dr. Ater, a Tel Aviv University researcher claims that McDonalds’ “'Dollar Menu' is an ideal model for corporate success in the times of economic crisis.”


What adjustments are you making to your menus or price lists?
