  10. Hows the log sales going now

    in Firewood forum

    Dont do it steve! Let the competition get frustrated by you selling at a healthy price instead of you worrying about them.

     

    Ive upper my price this year (am probably the dearest in the area) but ive sold more then last year, ive retained my customers and have had 15 new customers in december alone....thats despite some competition being less then half the price I am.

     

    Hi Ben,

     

    Your right...I've still got my customers from previous years, picked up quite a few new ones that said they were happy when I delivered...and had a couple from recommendations....nothing better than that!

    But you are offering a processor and operator so they can DIY their own logs instead of buying from you (or anyone else) and presumably save themselves a few quid......so how is that any different??.....so its all just business and competition!!

     

    I hear what your saying....and I have no problem with healthy competition...and I'm not afraid of it...its just that crazy prices don't do anyone any good....

     

    ...within an hour of my post I'm now booked out for half the day delivering tomorrow...so I know my product is good....

     

    may be it was just as "off" morning!? lol

    Thought that I'd have a quick look at the competition adds.....getting frustrated!!! We've not done to bad up to Christmas considering that its been so mild (although no where near last year!)...But what is it with people constantly driving the price down!!??? If we all looked at each other and kept it the same we'd all be ok!!!...rant over...for now!
