End of life coming: NZ Post

Raise the price.......yeah that will work :P
Sorry business wise I would question any initiative that "increases prices" while "decreasing service".
This has not worked for them in the past - As you can see here (http://tvnz.co.nz/view/news_business_story_skin/613504) NZ Post hit record profits riding the Trademe Wave in 2005. Now things have tapered off - their only strategy is either decrease service or increase prices on standard services.

Sorry but they are doing it wrong - and their competitors will laugh all the way to the bank on it.
Here is hoping that Brian Roche nips this in the bud before people rip into them.

Personally I like getting mail in the post box. Especially my USA motorcycle magazine subscriptions.

As per usual they are a bit short sighted. What they need to do is to employ extremely attractive posties and dress them in a manner that displays their assets - people will start posting again!

And neighbors may start talking to each other again as they wait out the front of their property for the postie.

don't be silly, everyone knows that you can easily cut costs by cutting wages... why would you look any harder... because generally analysing your business takes too much time... and then the whole process needs more detail, as per knock on business effects, and it all starts getting just too icky... wages are the way to go... it's easy... It's tried and tested... some governments use it as their business model. The worlds fine...
