Henry Ford as a marketing executive
1. A statement by Henry Ford illustrates the importance of satisfying customer’s needs: “Our policy is to reduce the price, extend the operations and improve the product”. You will notice that the reduction of price comes first. We have never considered any costs as fixed.
2. Therefore we first reduce the price to the point where we believe more sales will result. Then we go ahead and try to make the prices. We do not bother about the costs. The new price forces the costs down. The more usual way is to take costs and then determine the price and although that method may be scientific in the narrow sense, it is not scientific in the broad sense. I can explain why. The cost is worth 30 knowing if it tells you that you cannot manufacture at a price at which the product cannot be sold. One may calculate what a cost is and of course, all our costs are carefully calculated, but no one knows what a cost ought to be”.
3. Although Henry Ford was known as a great production genius, he was also a very good marketing executive. Ford realized that what the US wanted in the early 1900s was inexpensive automobile transportation. His procedure was first to determine the price the market was willing to pay for a car and then to design a car that could be manufactured at that price. During this period the price of his car fell from $ 850 to $ 263.
4. If Ford had used old methods for price calculation he wouldn’t have gained such a success.
