So, is your business included in our 'Rockstar' economy?

Go Greens bro, That Russell Norman fella seems to talk a lot of sense on important issues.

Go and wash your mouth out with soap! If you look up "fuck knuckle" in the dictionary, you will find a photo of him...

If a business is quiet now I reckon there's strong odds it'll largely remain that way until after the election. I'm gearing up for FielDays this week, it's going to be interesting to see how many dollars come out of the cocky's pockets this year.

Our business grew 20% last calendar year. So far YTD we're up by around 45% but that's skewed slightly & we're likely to come out adjusted at around 20% still.

Yeah I know.

I had several such price gouging experiences the week this came out: http://www.productivity.govt.nz/work...tivity-paradox
...and I wondered how they could have missed how predatory pricing behaviours represent such a huge disadvantage in comparing productivity.

I'd go so far as to say such unfair international marketing strategies probably cost us most of that missing $13k per year.

So, I'm liking the sound of this, as a start. http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/mone...asy-being-Kiwi

As the end of the article noted, there are other factors involved in NZ pricing and much is to do with overheads. Many claim we are being ripped off but the number of business owners becoming millionnaire's is not growing. You would expect a lot more getting filthy rich. A number of business owners on here have made some good points. My overheads are about as low as you can get so I can set my pricing very close to the US price equivalent. Online shopping means that I have to be competitive internationally for one of my product lines.
