Sent from my Verizon Wireless Phone ----- Reply message ----- From: "Richard Man" <richard at richardmanphoto.com> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Subject: [Leica] What Leica can learn from Polaroid Date: Sun, Dec 2, 2012 11:35 pm Timely article on what KODAK can learn from Polaroid, but applicable equally as well to Leica, and coincidentally, seems to be what Leica is doing anyway: < http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/what-kodak-could-still-learn-from-polaroid/2012/11/29/01b8b8e4-38d7-11e2-b01f-5f55b193f58f_print.html > The 4 bullet points: 1 don't be afraid to raise prices 2 *The only cameras are going to be high-end cameras ? and very-low-end ones. *3 *?Don?t do anything that someone else can do.?* 4 *The little yellow box is still golden. *Leica raises prices, goes big time on the high end cameras (Monochrom, S, M 240), do things that no one does (MM, S, M 240, 50AA...) and it continues to promotes its brand. -- // richard <http://www.richardmanphoto.com> _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
