This is another efficient and well tested formula. Whenever there is a need to raise fees or tariff rates, just offer a 3 month or 6 month rebate. This can be done right at the beginning or quarterly over a year.
The customers will feel grateful that they have a rebate, a subsidy mentality, and actually feel good. They will forget that for a few months of rebates they will eventually pay the new rate for the rest of their lives.
Is this the same as the handouts just before elections??
ReplyDeleteAnd isn't that the same as the GST rebates to cover the first few years and after that all will be well and forgotten and the collection will continue even after you are dead and buried.
ReplyDeleteWell that is what we Singaporean have to face, the real harsh truth.
