[QUOTE=Stiffy]I've been following the pricing dicussions. But here's the facts from a marketing point of view.
The law of supply and demand applies. The greater the supply the lower the price. The higher the demand. The higher the price.
Here's the factors. Women out of work needing extra cash, increases supply. Guys out of work with less cash, lessening demand.
Police raids and crackdowns have done little to decrease supply as known to all of us.
So, why are prices getting so high. Simple answer. Because WE LET IT.
I'm not against paying extra for quality service. I'll pay more for a better TV, for a fancier restaurant. But we now have options.
The service must start getting better for the ladies to warrant the higher pay or they must reduce pricing to intice us to try their services.
Simple economics. Let's starting thinking with both our heads.[/QUOTE]
You hit the nail on the head.
